House GOP: Don't grab an asteroid — let's put bases on moon and Mars
Wed Jun 19, 2013
- Well I can see their point. We cannot afford NASA and the space shuttle program. We cannot afford to feed or educate poor children. We cannot afford social security or medicare for seniors. We have to ride on Russian spaceships. We cannot afford to take care of our veterans.
House passes ban on abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy
Tue Jun 18, 2013
- I have always had mixed feelings about abortion. I don't know whether it is ending a life prematurely or not and I feel like I am at least as intelligent as those who know it is or know it isn't.
Analysis: Why Edward Snowden isn't a whistle-blower, legally speaking
Tue Jun 18, 2013
- I am not sure I understand this whistle-blower question. By definition this guy is not a whistle-blower. He was not mistreated and didn't know anyone who was. He accepted a security clearance as a prerequisite for getting his job. He knew what that meant.
Boehner calls Senate immigration bill 'laughable,' complicates prospects in House
Tue Jun 18, 2013
- I am not an illegal immigrant and don't know any. I think we have to do something reasonable to try and deal with the problem. Capturing and deporting is not reasonable. If you really want to see the deficit skyrocket field the necessary agents and equipment to do that. Having said that if conservat …
Confessed Boston hitman says he and Bulger were 'up to our necks in murder'
Tue Jun 18, 2013
- There is one thing that is always certain. When people do things they should be ashamed of it is always someone Else's fault. This guy is simply ratting out a rat and justifying doing it so it will not seem like he ratted him out just to get a reduced sentence.
Surveillance helped stop plots against NYSE and New York subway, official says
Tue Jun 18, 2013
- I cannot fathom that most of the people writing posts on this subject are actually that ignorant of how intelligence is gathered and how the NSA works. Bush started this program so if you are an Obama hater you ought to love it. Obama continued it so if you are a Bush hater you ought to love it. Of …
US, Taliban to meet in Qatar for 'key milestone' toward ending Afghanistan war
Tue Jun 18, 2013
- I understand the reasoning in trying to deal with these people. However, they are made up of social purists and religious fanatics. We have had some experience with that mentallity in the west as well. History has shown that you can ignore them or kill them but you cannot reason or deal with them.
Missouri Sen. McCaskill backs Clinton for president in '16
Tue Jun 18, 2013
- It is pretty easy to forecast that conservatives will be beside themselves over this story and any potential nomination of Clinton for president. They hate her. Of course, they hate any democrat or even conservatives who associate with democrats. I am not even sure they trust each other.
'Day of honor': Afghans take over national security from US-led forces
Tue Jun 18, 2013
- I hope this works but if you look at this country historically nothing has worked. I don't believe they are a country in the way the west thinks of one but a bunch of tribes who live in roughly the same geographical location. At least we will be out of it. If this is like any other occupation of thi …
Obama defends Syria handling to skeptical public, critical congressmen
Mon Jun 17, 2013
- I don't see how we can do anything about Syria. The carnage and the killing there is terrible. However, it is a country on the other side of the world whose inhabitants are basically hostile to us and the west. There is no way to even know if those appearing friendly to us now would stay that way if …
