To stay out of their private lives and at the same time expect them to provide them with the security that this great nation provides? I know I am opening a can of worms here but I just don't understand how people can say..."it's my business who I marry" or " it's my business what drugs I do" but while I am marrying him or her or shooting this or that I want you to provide me protection from outside invasions!

I know that change is good but not always! Why can't people say..."hey you know what. I can't do anything and everything I want, but you know what...I don't have 100,000 foreigners bombing my house trying to take over my country."

No one is totally free to do whatever they want and they never will but I will live by their rules as long as they provide me with the security that they have! I know some people don't feel safe after 9/11 but those people attacked us with our own weapons! I for one feel better that the war is taking place somewhere else and not here!

Sorry if this upsets some people but I just had to rant! If you think less of me now then so be it...after all it is your right!

People are sick of little shit. Like piles of spam mail in their mailbox. I get like 2 bills, and the rest is magazines, coupons, and credit card offers. I didn't ask for that shit, it shouldn't be allowed to be sent to me. I have the same first and last name as my father, and when I moved, they started sending all of his mail to me. It's like, jesus christ you fuckin idiots, you didn't even ask me, or check that it wasn't him. They even told me if I didn't pay they would report me to collections. I want to know who told their ass I moved.

But stuff like spam mail is not a huge deal to me, more of an annoyance. It's just stuff like that, people wish wouldn't happen. As far as drugs, I think people should be able to do any drugs they want, let them kill themselves, population control. The only problem with it is when people start robbing and murdering people for their money to go spend on crack. If they legalized and taxed stuff like marajuana, we could release hundreds of thousands of prisoners in jail for stupid shit like smoking pot, and use their cells for rapists, and murderers. Not to mention the government could make some money off of the whole thing. And quit spending money on police labor for hunting down pot smoking teens, and divert it to more important shit. Unfortunately more than half of the voters are a bunch of old geezers who think pot is a spawn of satan, even though it's just fine to get drunk off your ass and beat your wife...... I don't even smoke pot, but to me this stuff is common sense.

Sorry about my rant. Anyway, I think the government should know enough about you to protect you, but they shouldn't be allowed to use that info to do much else.

Yes Bush has gained so much from the war. He is stuffing his pockets full of money. I hate this stupid anti bush argument. That the war is for money for oil. Where is he putting all this money and oil that we are supposedly stealing from Iraq? Just rhetoric from people that don't like Bush. Attack him on his ideas and actions but leave that crap out. peace.

I agree, now that Iraq is free to do and say what they please, I'm sure they wouldn't hesitate to tell the world if we were stealing all of their shit.

If you can't see or admit that Bush is a puppet that has been hand-picked for the job by the most powerful lobbies in this country then you need to use sources other that FOX news for your info. This isn't about his bank account it's about theirs. He gets to be president they get what they want. It's not rhetoric it's a fact and as I said earlier if you can't see it then either you are not looking or you don't want to. This is the last I will you will hear from me on the subject but I would encourage you not to be so quick to defend a group of money/power-hungry sociopaths that do not have any of your interests in mind.

Well I would sure love being hand picked by 59 million people then! And yes special lobbyists contribute to both sides. Neither Dems or Rep. are immune to it. Show me the facts besides Michael Moore's dumb propaganda movie that supports your beliefs. ANyone can spout off shit in either direction about any person but it's opinion and we are all entitled to our own. I can fault you for yours and I don't expect you to fault me for mine. In all of these political discussions no one wins...no one changes their mind. That is just how it is. Now move to canada j/k . peace
