It depends, is it a regular incandescent, or one of those gay new compact florescence?

Accept if it is a democrat..... It's hilarious how hillary won't answer any questions about Mrs. Monica, and how barrack does nothing but keep his mouth shut. Bush has done a decent job.

he has protected the country... no new terrorist attacks have been succesfully compelted since the 9/11 attacks... that is his only initial objective that has passed with flying colors

but how has he tried to accomplish this? several human rights breaches right there...

the economy is losing steam in the international arena.

the Patriot Act is just plain wrong.

and he still has not delivered on his promise to win the war of Terror.



of course... I could care less if Bush continues to be President or gets impeached. But I do think a light bulb burns brighter than Bush

The goal of terrorism is to spread fear and it has spread fear in ways beyond the imaginations of the terrorists of 9/11.

Ok. This is disgusting. ARE YOU seriously suggesting that no action should have been taken after 9 11? The war in Iraq has saved moreinnocent lives then there has been casualties. The economy is doing fine, and bush has done a below average job, sorry for you guys misunderstanding me. don't job all republicans off his presidency. Abortion is wrong how can you agree with a political party that supports murder.

well if you cite a credible source, then I will believe you and then revise my stance on this particular issue



I am actually a right leaning moderate, but Bush is... so zany... he's not really much of a classic Republican

Actually... yes and no. I do think we should have taken some action after 9/11 but not delcared war on terrorism because it's a tactic not a real enemy. It's not like fighting the Nazis in WWII. Terrorism is a way of fightning. I do think we should have gone after Osama bin Laden without going to war in Afghanistan or Iraq... especially Iraq which had nothing to do with 9/11.

if you remember, they had to depose of the Taliban, hence going to war with Afghanistan.

bin Laden hides and cowers... and Bush has killed many other leaders of Al Qaeda (and probably drank their blood)

the Iraq war was rather perplexing. the WMD side of the story may never be revealed. if true, then it was a necessary move. if not, then it is not a necessary move. since this is ambiguous, it cannot be a factor in discussion.

removing a known criminal in Hussein is good for freedom and democracy.

but the rest of the Americas action in the Middle East just raises a big ?

Of course you could care less. The right-wing generally could care less what happens to other people. "Soldiers dying needlessly because some guy lied? Eh, as long as I don't die, I could care less."

I saw a video recently of a guy visiting a College Republicans convention. Imagine the following conversations:

Mindless Robot #1: "We support the global war on terror!"

Mindless Robot #2: "We want the people of Iraq to have freedom and democracy!"

Mindless Robot #3: "Islamofascism must be defeated!"

Interviewer: "So, how come you're not fighting in Iraq?"

Mindless Robot #1: "Um, I tried.. but I.. have a bad knee! So they won't let me!"

Mindless Robot #2: "Wrestling injuries!"

Mindless Robot #3: "Because I'm helping this country by staying here and getting an education!"

This, of course, is the right-wing in a nutshell. "**** the poor man, let him do all the work, I'm the smart one, I'll stay here and reap the benefits."

And there are plenty that would take the job in a second. And bin Laden recently released a video, in case you didn't know. His ideological followers are causing quite a ruckus in Pakistan right now. It's very unstable. Pakistan is an "ally", yet many in Pakistan are sympathetic towards Osama bin Laden; they also have nukes. It'd be a dark day if they were able to gain control of the country.
