What gives you the right to impose your beliefs on others? Ever hear of supply and demand? Do you really believe that it is only those of other religions that are participating in the sex, drugs, and violence to which you refer. Since Christians are the majority, according to one poster, there must be plenty of Christians who are living the lifestyles you want to suppress. There are all kinds of Christians. Which Christians do you want to be in charge of all of our lives...the fundamentalists, the KKK, the Aryan Nations?

With all the supply and demand stuff...
...I'm guessing the price of tea may have increased since yesterday.

...I'm guessing the price of tea may have increased since yesterday.
I noticed yesterday that several food items went down in price. (Maybe others went up in price and I didn't know it because they wouldn't be items I would normally purchase.)
Things like butter being $2.00 (last week was $2.68), bread $1.12 a loaf (last week was $1.36 a loaf), American cheese $2.38 a pound (last week was $3.36) -- stuff like that.

ANWR would only supply us for six months...
at our current rate of usage - it's basically a drop in the bucket. And to get all the equipment in place to extract it and refine it would take approximately four years or more.
And that "desolate wasteland" is one of the last pristine areas left in the world. Does man really have to desecrate every square foot of this earth to satisfy his own greed and consumption? Guess so.
Oklahoma alone has a huge oil supply. sm
When I worked at the University, I was told there was so much oil in capped off tanks, it would astound the populance to know how much. The oil is here.
Demand the truth, regardless of R or D
Ah, the drive-bys: ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN for starters. The facts are literally everywhere to refute many of the stories being discussed. NBC/MSNBC is the very worst for being in the tank for Obama. PBS and NPR are also on the list, among plenty others.
It's shocking that so many people would literally give any network (and I said any) a free pass and take what they say as gospel, esp. when these "reporters" as they call themselves are very well aligned with the Dems. I scrutinize what the right says, too. Giving a free pass to reporters is not only foolish, it's dangerous. I don't ever want my candidate of choice to win by cheating or distorting things. Of course, politicians deserve a great deal of scrutiny. Just like we work for MQ, politicians work for us. We should demand the the same from politicians as our employers expect from us.
Tonight on Hannity & Colmes will be part 2 of Sean's interview with Sarah Palin. I copied it below from FNC.
Also, The Obama campaign has distorted Rush's words about Latinos. That will be disputed tomorrow on his show (and in Spanish). He also has an op-ed coming out in Friday's Wall Street Journal about this. It's disturbing to me that Univision & Telemundo didn't run the RNC convention on their networks. Not even close to fair and balanced. If I were Hispanic I'd be furious that both sides weren't presented so I could make my own decision. Next they'll be selecting our cars, etc.!

This isn't meant as a "shootin' match." It's simply an avenue many may have not considered.
I have an endless supply of dorky sayings
And could break into song if it would make everyone less afraid.
when you supply a link make sure it works.

Take responsibility. Demand accountability.
Why do you cut Republicans to ribbons the largest financial disaster we have faced in decades can be laid at the feet of Democrats in Congress and all of a sudden you guys are saying stop blaming. You want to stop blaming Bush for the war?
yeah demand accountability -- keep
I love watching the stocks plummet, since my money isn't there.
I don't demand anyone respect Obama. However,
I feel certain he will more than earn his respect in the way he's planning to deal with Bush's depression whereas Bush never earned any respect.
Nobody wants to listen to liberal talk radio..look at bankrupt Air America. No demand for it...

If we give up all this money now and do NOT demand full disclosure/accountability to these foul thie
despite all the duplicity in the banking crisis, are STILL in corporate positions, then we have just thrown good money after bad and our whole system will go down faster. These guys do not even know what accountability means, and someone has to TEACH THEM, if not, be replaced, no more hand-outs, and face stiff fines for misappropriation of tax payer's money/government funds. We need to act fast, but not BLINDLY AND RASHLY!!
The polls that supply that electoral map are just that....polls...sm
Polls mean less than nothing to me. Polls intimidate and mislead the voters, in my opinion. Thanks for asking.
