The US economy is unique to all others because it can be stopped and restarted seemingly easy if you look at what really going on instead of a set of numbers and then make some educated guesses.in layman terms..this is it.during the clinton administration microsoft drove the economy.remember when all those countries and netscape tried to destroy microsoft thats because these countries realise that all their mony was going to american software and America was getting richer and richer hence the lawsuits,well they almost won because everyone was wanting microsoft head yes even some of our own.I

The dose of reality

Fixing the economy without a bailout.

Removing the requirement of a credit score to only having a permanent job for any home 40k and below is the best way to fix the economy.Payments will be no more than 300 a month and most renters will get a home,who are now paying 800 plus,this gives them 500 dollars in spending money which will go right back in the economy.Builders will get right back into the act with prefab homes and we all will be working again.Every sector of the economy will pick up and home prices will start moving upwards again as soon as or before the 200k or so homes that are available runs out,this plan if used will

It's really not about the mosque.

The controversy about the NY mosque being proposed so close to the 9/11 site has ignited a much more basic controversy. Can our constitution continue to withstand human prejudices.

Aspiring to achieve the principles espoused by our founding fathers is becoming harder and harder. The reason is simple; we are after all just human beings with a wealth of prejudices.

How else do you explain that fanatical defenders of the constitution, the strict constructionists, are against the location of this mosque. Call them hypocrits. I call them just plain human.

Really, we are not spying on each other.

We are exchanging spies that are not supposed to exist.
Really??
In this day and age, do we really need spies to start with?
Is that not what google is for??

Moving Forward

If there is one phrase I'm sick of hearing the Liberal Left use it's "Moving forward". The current administration and most of Congress repeat these words over and over. It's no real surprise, however, given their number of mistakes and incompetent deeds that they want us to keep going forward and not look back.

Why do we, actually they, always need to overreact to everything??

Allen — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 18:22:14 -0600

When we caught the shoe bomber, they decided to make all of us, forever, take off our shoes.

When we caught the underwear bomber, they decided to escalate searches to invasive patdowns and ex-ray scanners.

When we got attacked on 9/11, they decided to invade an uninvolved country on made up intelligence.

Remember the tabaco wars?

Remember the breast implants scare?

When the economy started slowing down, they decided to spend billions of our money to fix their mistakes.

We really dont have to do everything big, just because we are big.

The newest form of domestic terrorism-the republican party??

By now everybody has heard, read about, or maybe even experienced first hand, the tactics employed by the republican party and their operatives to disrupt town hall meetings at which healthcare reform is discussed.

Yes, its disruption without substance.It is not average citizens expressing their views. There is no view expressed when some load mouth just shouts down a meeting.

There is hope for democracy in Iran.

There is hope for democracy in Iran.

Not because of elections. Not because of people having the nerve to protest the elections results. Not because the international community is pressing for free and fair elections.

The real influence...Twitter and other social media. They are allowing the world to see what is actually happening in Iran and sustains the ever growing protests against what appears to be a stolen election.

Who says that Web2.0 does not equal democracy. It is the future of democracy, in suppresed countries and everywhere else for that matter.

If waterboarding is not torture, doing it to someone 183 time could get close?

Jack — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 10:43:31 -0500

Cheney keeps defending the use of any method of interrogation on the basis that it kept the country safe during his administration and because valuable information was obtained. Does he really believe that any valuable information was obtained after waterboarding someone over 100 times?

Of course not! We know he is mean, even sadistic. Can he be that stupid?
