We MUST remove religious views and beliefs the best wee can.

I can hardly believe the US following a leader to the likes of Hitler, Lenin, Milosevic,...etcThe entire idea of our government is to have checks and balances, I'm not sure one person could reign that much power here in the US.

Even the most Socialistic leaders in Europe know how dangerous of a policy Obama has talked about.

What ana amazing country where our leaders puposely mispronounce words to look dumber.

Secretary Cuomo was joined by Burrville Principal Gwendolyn Baccus and leader of the nation's two largest teacher's groups - American Federation of Teachers President, Sandra Feldman and National Education Association President, Robert Chase.Feldman said: "HUD's Teacher Next Door initiative will help teachers buy a home and live in the community where they teach.

Now OIL is running out and we (and our leaders) are doing NOTHING to supplant it.The common thread in the case of the Dutch and the English is that the reliance on plentiful, and cheap energy caused a complacence because it was just TOO EASY to keep doing what they had been doing.A couple of parallels to this can be found in the cliche' about the old "buggy whip makers", and simlarly in the case of people who made, and delivered ICE back in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.There were probably a lot of players in both industries, and as competition from refrigerator manufacturers and auto makers became intense, the remaining buggy whip makers and "ice men" were obviously the MOST EFFICIENT players in their respective markets.

The world is becoming a really scary place, and as Americans, we should be able to count on our leaders being frank.

What I have observed is a complete and utterly contemptable attitude towards capitalism and free enterprise and an almost religious fervor for larger government "solutions" to economic problems.

Even though I disagree with the protests, it is great to have this type of political freedom and not have to worry about going to jail for protesting our leaders decisions.

According to some of the mainstream media she was a religious zealot http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/04/19/world/main1515903.shtmlWhat I found interesting was there was no interpretation of what she actually said.
