Hey Nancy,

The public’s view of Congress is even worse. Its approval rating has hit a new low of just 18%, down from 23% last month, according to a new AP-Ipsos poll. Bush’s approval is at 28%, about even with the 29% rating last month.

Maybe should work on this…

Atrocity after atrocity and there's more to come...ATTENTION, CITIZENS! TO SAVE YOU, WE MUST KILL YOU! And we wonder why they hate us...

Pretty simplistic could you expand on this?

It would seem to me the roots of their hatred is based on a radical intrepratation of a religion that…

I really don't think explosion applies.

ON BASE there is little to no crime. Why is it so hard for you to expect that OFF BASE the crime rate should not explode? (Again, if you live in Darfur then I understand why your views are so backwards.)

Ummm, Headline says:

The serious crime rate for U.S.…

I want to see the actual numbers and the basis on which this statement is made.

It just can't be true. Young men 18-30 of any nationality are much more likely to be involved in serious crime than an entire population which of course includes children and elderly people. Do…

The main thing Cosby has done is get this all-important dialogue started, even if he offered himself up as the lighting rod. (That's what leaders like Obama do, rather than telling people to go shopping or to Disneyland like your Prince of Fools, Bush.)

I was pretty impressed when Colin…

Betzee, Your famous for deflection. Phillipines has nothing to do with the points I'm making nor is Iraq.

Sorry, discussion with you always ends up on the same point Bush bad, even when he was right concerning our response as a nation to 9/11 and the taking out the Taliban…

Great Betzee,

Now conspiracy theory.

In the late 1990s, an American-led oil consortium held talks with the Taliban about building a pipeline from Central Asia - where oil and gas reserves are gigantic - through Afghanistan to Pakistan, from where it could be shipped westward. The talks broke down in…

Betzee,

The U.S, Britain and Canada didn't want to wait around to take action or do you believe we should have waited a year until we took em out????? Turned down hell, what is your point, we should have waited until we an total consensus before we attack??? Shame again…

NATO did invoke Article 6 (?) immediately after 9/11, the only time in its history. But the US didn't want their help, we'd do it alone and their participation would just slow us down. It was only upon recognition the job would be much more difficult that Afghanistan was handed…
