QS you don't have any idea what the administration is using the Patriot Act for. No one really does unless they are working inside the government agencies that oversee it's programs. Even those that are working within government agencies only know bits and pieces. Neither you nor I know if we are more or less safe as a result of these programs. Has there been a major attack on U.S. soil since 9/11? No, but the damage has been done. We've traded away the liberties and the basic foundations of law that have served us making us a great and hopeful people and transformed our society into something ugly for a false sense of security. The terrorists have won. |

"In reflex tests of 46 political partisans, psychologists found that conservatives were more likely than liberals to be shocked by sudden threats. Accompanying the physiological differences were deep differences on hot-button political issues: military expansion, the Iraq war, gun control, capital punishment, the Patriot act, warrantless searches, foreign aid, abortion rights, gay marriage, premarital sex and pornography." http://blog.wired.com/wiredscience/2008/09/fearmongering-h.html The neocons were also considerably slower than liberals... (OK,I made that part up...) You know that scene in "Platoon" with the stoners and the beer drinkers? Not much difference except for the propensity to violence of the PBR monkeys. There's your moral structure. I hope to leave sooner. This isn't challenging, just fun. As for my "beliefs," I don't just mindlessly support one side. When the Democrats are wrong, they're wrong. Most of the neocons on this site have no objectivity. None. |

Neocon's typically have a head injury in their medical history. Oh, you're making me blush. I don't paint all of you as neocons. As for non-thinkers, there's plenty of evidence of that from the right side of these boards. |

Really? You support a man that wants to raise taxes in the middle of all this finacial crisis, and then give all the poor americans a 1000 dollars, while uping corporate taxes, who could very easily decide to down size here and upsize over seas, there by laying off 1000's of workers nation wide maybe even you or someone you know, and you support this Obama who has not written any legislation since he's been in office. Has no real experience governing, militarily or dare I say economically, or with foreign policy.And how's he gonna pay for all this, oh ya raise taxes, but not yours, right? You sir need to drink another beer, because if he gets elected,taxes may just cause a beer to become more expensive than a pack of smokes. Good luck with that, Buffet wannna be. McCain-Palin Oh yea!!!!! I guess you must make over $250,000 a year. Because those are the ones that are getting their taxes raised. Just remember, Liberals and Common sense have never been good buddies How interesting Thomas Paine was a Liberal and he wrote Common Sense. |

QS said,"The only ones we have top worry about invading on our rights are LIBS!" What kind of garbage is this? Isn't it the Bush Administration that likes walking all over the Constitution with wire tapping and invading computers? Sheesh. |

haha Gosh, how many times have I seen people on this site respond to concerns about privacy with the line, "if you don't have anything to hide why should you worry?" Funny how those same people are now up in arms about what they see as a violation of privacy. The irony is rich here! |

That's how you know when you are choosing the right candidate. Vote the exact opposite of the Out of touch Hollywood elitist. Like Damons opinion holds some value with me.

More and more crap. Libs just don't like it. They just said that Sarah's husband had a DUI. It was only 22 years ago! Bet if they dig further they will find that he used to crap in his diapers. I think you're his inspiration... Im waiting for the final count on all the hurricanes... |

If we "LIBS" are afraid, why's the McCain campaign keeping Palin from the press? Seems fear is everywhere in elephantland. "Three of the four now-official candidates on the major-party presidential tickets are scheduled to sit down for questions: Democrat Barack Obama on ABC's "This Week," his running mate, Joe Biden, on NBC's "Meet the Press" and Republican John McCain on CBS' "Face the Nation." Absent from this list, of course, is the GOP's star of the moment, the not-so-long-ago obscure governor of Alaska who is McCain's running mate, Sarah Palin." http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/09/sarah-palin-w-1.html |

Marine you have yet to answer what your personal course of action will be to take care of ALL of these infants that you will be dooming countless women to carry and deliver full term. Daniel had the guts to say yep, he indeed doesn't care and it "isn't his problem" even though he had a hand in creating it. Got an answer for it yet? Or do you require more time? We are waiting with baited breath. |

actally the fetus us conncected to teh mothers placents through the umbilical the entire length of the pregnancy, not just during the first trimester. And yes it is dependant on its mother to live, however that dependency does not stop at birth. It continues to be dependant ofr its very life until a bare minimum of age 4 or 5 (assuming that intellegince was not a factor, and just being able to fend for itself was). The fact is, at conception, the fetus is created, and is now dependant upon the mother to feed it and care for it. This is what determines life, not the ability to reason, or understand. By scientific definition, a placeba is alive, because it lives off of its environment. The influenza (the flue) is alive, because it feeds off of humans. The main questioin is wether or not the fetus is a human being. nd when you look at the fact that it is two human dna strings combined to make one human dna strand, then there is no question about its humanity either. So it is a human being, and it is alive, even if it si dependant on another for its life (in this case the pregnant mother). now, let's say your mother (as an example, not trying to be antagonistic) was in an auto accident, and paralized form the neck down, unable to move anything on her own, have to be fed intraveineously. Needless to say she is going to be dependant for her very life on someone else for the rest of her life. If no one else wants to care for her, and assist her with her living, does this mean her life should be aborted? Daniel, Read carefully. Nearly all abortions take place in the first trimester, when a fetus cannot exist independent of the mother. As it is attached by the placenta and umbilical cord, its health is dependent on her health, and cannot be regarded as a separate entity as it cannot exist outside her womb. I'm not sure what you don't understand about that simple statement but if there is still confusion I can point out some medical informational websites that might help. So you are comparing a fetus at conception to the influenza virus? Well in that case,. every time you have taken some cough medicine when you had a bug, you are in fact responsible for the murder of literally thousands of viral spores and should be in prison now. Do you see how irrational that argument becomes? Now add onto that the lifelong trauma and anguish you are compounding by forcing this woman to carry an unwanted pregnancy. In the case of rape or incest, you can increase this horror and psychological scarring ten fold. If your own mother or wife or daughter Daniel begged for you to end their life after an automobile accident that rendered them paralyzed from the neck down and destroyed their quality of life, would you then force that person to linger on indefinitely? Im still waiting on a response to the posed question? What personal responsibility will you be taking for ALL of these thousands of unwanted infants you will now be forcing women to carry to term? Anyone? |

well when all you pro lifers adopt all the unwanted,deserted,beaten,unloved children who are brought into this world,then you can dictate a woman's choice to keep the babe or not.I am pro choice and people need to mind their business unless they are ready to step up . That's really the issue here. You seem very satisfied to throw around these moral judgments and assertions about human life and the quality there of. But when we really get down to it, will you sir be adopting one of these unwanted children born of a mother who was forced to carry this baby to term by Christian fundamentalists and (if you get your way) the government? Even if you are in a position to adopt one baby, or more, what about the thousands of unwanted infants that you will now embark on creating a surplus of in the US? Hmmm? So it is right to force a woman to carry an infant to term? Even in the case of rape or incest? I'm sorry sir but I cant see the "universal righteousness" of your belief system as it relates to women on this planet. Half of humanity. I posed to you a simple question. How many of these unwanted infants will you now be adopting or taking personal responsibility for? Remember it is you and "your kind" that will now be demanding that ALL woman regardless of circumstance carry an unwanted pregnancy to term. Its sure a lot easier to throw around your moral judgments of others but a LOT more difficult when confronted with the actual results of these deplorable actions. If abortion is to remain safe and legal (which most likely it will) then most women will continue to have the procedure during first trimester when it is less evasive. During the first trimester the fetus is attached by the umbilical cord and is held within the mother's placenta. It is totally dependent on her health and well being. It CAN NOT live outside of her body. |
