What do you think of the liberal assault on our freedoms of speech and religion?
Liberal judges are taking away our freedoms of speech and religion. As Conservatives(and Americans), we have the right to have our own views and to practice our religion. If conservatives such as myself disagree with liberal ideology, the liberals try to silence us by accusing us of "hate-speech", and threatening us with law-suits or even [...]

This is intended as a very narrow Q posed to those who want McCain to be the next president.
Who do you want to win the Democrat nomination and is it because that person is your second choice for the job or because he/she will be the easiest for McCain to beat? I’m hoping those who don’t want McCain will refrain from answering since I’m looking for info specifically from McCain supporters rather than [...]
About the new President of the United States…..
whomever he may be, what do you think would be the proper course of action for him to take concerning our military presence in the Middle East? What would be the ramifications of pulling out now after so many years, so many deaths, and so much money spent to fund this mission? Would we look [...]
Why vote for Obama?
If one’s rational to vote for Obama is their hope to get our troops out of harm’s way, in Iraq, a little sooner … is that flawed reasoning (given that Obama advocates a significant build-up of troops in Afghanistan)? Yes … it is important to finish the job in Afghanistan. But harm’s way is harm’s [...]

For those who do not believe the teachings of a specific faith, but are spiritual, do you think…
that you will have sentience…cognition after death? If you feel that we are, simply put, part of the universe with the universe as ‘God’ or that we are an exchange of energy… does any part of us live on in a sentient way? Or a cognitive way?No bashing please, no arguing…just sharing opinions…
People in religions against homosexuality, if a "Gay gene" were found, how would this effect your…
Opinion about homosexuality as a "sin?" If it is completely nature, rather than nurture…how could homosexuality possible be a "sin?" If it is a sin, why would your God be so cruel?
Is this what is waiting for us should universal health care be implemented?
"Veterans Affairs officials say 16 patients exposed to contaminatedequipment at its medical facilities have tested positive for viralinfections, including hepatitis" "The number of reported infections could rise.

Influenced by the sprite/gingerale question. What, in your opinion (conversational: force of habit), is the best home/natural remedy for the many different things that get us humans down. Thank you in advance for your suggestions.
Are campaign promises meant to be broken?
During the campaign, President Obama promised that "When there’s a bill that ends up on my desk as president, you the public will have five days to look online, find out what’s in it…." Seeing as how he broke this promise by signing the State Children’s Health Insurance Program just hours after its passing Congress, [...]
Is the extreme left blackmailing Obama?
First Obama said no to prosecuting Bush administration officials regarding waterboarding. Then moveon.org got very angry and he changed his mind the next day. Why the sudden about face, even after being advised by 5 intelligence experts from both parties not to pursue it? Is it possible that George Soros is forcing him to go [...]
Do you check the profiles of the people who answer your ?s or the people who you answer ?s for?
curious as to how many people check profiles. If you do check them, have you ever invited people as friends to your space ? Added a comment to their page or sent them a message? why or why not?
What do you think of the remarks by the Judge who asked Miss California her opinon on gay mairrage?
I think the judge was wrong for saying hateful things about the model. If he didn’t want her opinion, then why in the world did he ask her?? People should be free to say their opinion without fear of retaliation. It’s called free-speech, and freedom of religion. I say good for her for standing up [...]
Will the candidates in this election take us closer to or further from this advice..?
"I am for doing good to the poor, but I differ in opinion of the means. I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it. In my youth I traveled much, and I observed in different countries, that [...]
I am a global warming skeptic: Would you agree that this is a decent reason to question it?
http://www.dailytech.com/Myth+of+Consensus+Explodes+APS+Opens+Global+Warming+Debate/article12403.htmI respect those that disagree as it is seemingly a worthy cause (anyone with half a brain would want to save the planet, it makes sense in that reguard). However, after having wondered as why much of the theory is purported by ‘new’ types of big industry (mass media, ‘green’ companies, lobbyists) I now believe [...]
Story of President Obama refusing to accept TARP repayment from banks. True or false?
My case for false.All of the stories about President Obama refusing to except TARP repayment can be tracked back to a op-ed the Wall Street Journal by Stuart Varney. In the story Varney states his opinion is based "on a true first reported by my Fox News colleague Andrew Napolitano." Reading the story that Varney [...]

Have we been brainwashed to think that revolving credit is a good thing?
It used to be (ha!) that people waited until they could afford things before they bought them. Then it became commonplace to buy things and pay for them later. Owing money used to have a stigma attached (other than a home/car). They used to be called Second Mortgages and raised eyebrows. Now they’re called Home [...]
Will the Dems move to socialism cause a rash of secessions when the economy collapses?
Capitalism is the reason for prosperity in the United States. Moving to socialism will reduce us to mediocrity or worse. Secession may be the only way to salvage what has made us great up until now. What are your thoughts? Countries mentioned in this Post: United States
Do you frwd those silly emails that say if you don’t send them to 20 people you will get bad luck?
I’m sure that most of us have received a bizarre chain letter at one point with threats of bad luck unless it’s forwarded to at least 10 or 20 people My question is pretty straightforward: Do you forward these letters? I, personally, don’t.
A question about football/soccer.
I know that soccer is really big in England/Europe and the American football vs soccer debate has been hotly debated ad nauseum many times before. My question is if you are not from the States and you watch soccer, does it offend you in any way that we call our sport football? I was at [...]
Do you think drug addicts can be properly rehabilitated?????
I am not talking about occasional or recreational drug users, I am talking about hard-core drug users that use drugs like cocaine, crack, meth, oxycontin, and other drugs of the like. Do you think they can ever be properly rehabilitated or do you think the addiction is so strong, that they will relapse? Is it [...]
Was George W the worst American president in history?
Everywhere I look, I see another comment on Bush being the worst president we’ve ever had. I’ve even heard die hard Conservative Republicans complain that he was not the best one we ever had to elect. Come on people, surely Nixon has to be up there on the worst presidents list.
Which is the more difficult sport, golf or snooker?
With it being such a nice day, I went for a few frames of snooker! I played shockingly bad and it got me thinking, if you enjoy playing both which do you find the harder game. After this afternoon snooker is harder to master
How did a blind pilot land an airplane?
I saw this story on the news this morning, but they really didn’t give many details. A man apparently had a stroke while flying a small plane, and went blind due to the stroke. He landed the plane somewhere in the UK from what I heard. How is this even possible, and are there any [...]
How effective is acupuncture?
Seriously, I can’t see how sticking hundreds of little needles in my body will alleviate any sorts of pain, but then again, I have never tried it. Does anyone have any first hand experience with acupuncture and what did you think of it? Did it help?
What do you think about doctor’s prescribing a placebo to patients?
I just got wind of this story, and I think it is sickening that a doctor would knowingly prescribe useless medication to a patient. Link to story below. What do you think about this? Should any action be taken against these doctors? http://news.yahoo.com/s/hsn/20081024/hl_hsn/doctorsoftenprescribeplacebotreatmen…
Question for people with sleep apnea.
I have been using a cpap machine for almost 2 years now and I have never slept better. If you have sleep apnea and use a cpap machine, how long have you used it and do you dare to try and sleep a night without it? I am not looking for ‘medical advice’ per se, [...]
Why does Gen. Colin Powell’s endorsement of Obama bother Republicans much more than those of others?
Why does former Secretary of State, Gen. Colin Powell’s endorsement of Democratic Senator Barack Obama anger Republicans so much, when there were so many other endorsements given to Sen. Barack Obama by prominent white Republicans in the weeks prior to Powell’s endorsement and absolutely nothing was said about it, not even a whisper? Does the [...]
Is it possible to impeach congress?
How much longer do we as a nation have to put up with all the idiots in congress that are dragging us farther into a hole, rather than building the ladder out? GET DEMOCRATS OUT OF CONGRESS NOW!!!!
Is liver really healthy?
I was pondering this question last night as I was digging into a very nice plate of liver and onions, which quite honestly, was probably not the right time to be thinking about this. The liver is a filter for the body which is responsible for detoxification of the body, among the other functions that [...]
Are you kidding me?
Pro Bowl NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson has legally changed his name to Chad Ocho Cinco because he wears the number 85 on his jersey. Ocho Cinco obviously being Spanish for 85. What do you think of this? Why would a judge allow this obvious farcical attempt at attention and self-promotion to occur? What happens [...]

After a month of non-stop Football are you glad to see the back of it or will you miss it? Me, I’m looking forward to the final but will be happy when it’s all over.
How do you feel about…….
people begging for money. Does it annoy you, repulse you, make you feel sorry for them, or do you actually give them money? If they were holding a sign up like my friend here, would you give him money based on his honesty? Don’t know about over in the UK but here in the States, [...]
Why do Cats like to Chase and Catch Birds?
Do they think it is a plaything or just their nature.? I was watching a cat in my backyard today now he was really into those flying birds. Maybe its their flapping wingsThanks:)
"What do you mean it is not on sale anymore"?
This is what I said after my wife took something up to the counter last night and was told that the marked sale price, was no longer in effect. Shouldn’t a place of business be obligated to sell a piece of merchandise for what it is marked for? IMO, it is not our problem that [...]
Opinion Time!
Which of these celebrities creeps you out more? Michael Jackson, and his hideous silly putty shaped nose and pasty white complexion. Not to mention his notable attempt at personally having his child bungee jump off the balcony of a hotel. Pee Wee Herman, and his public masturbation rituals. Ernest Borgnine, who in a recent interview, [...]
Romantic man?
When you personally hear the term romantic man, what comes to your mind? What would you consider a romantic gesture from a man? After almost 10 years of marriage, what new and different romantic things could a man do for his woman? I am asking for a friend, not for me! (wink wink)
Since no one else will ask the question , are you sickened at the sight of those little children
singing to and for Obama. These were songs of praise. When these children are older they will need counseling. I’ve only ever seen this in dictatorships.
One more day to go until we find out…..

Why do so many users fail to follow up and comment on the answers to their questions?
I really don’t understand, if someone asks a question that has at least some importance to them the failure to keep the question and answers alive by responding with comments. I most often find more information contained within the comments than in the question or the answers. Please explain
Is childhood obesity the result of our society’s shift in Mothers working full time?
I was reading this article today, spurred by a recent "debate" I’ve had with a friend: Has childhood obesity risen directly due to Mothers working more? http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2007/nov/22/children.health I did a search and found the above article. I wonder if it is applicable here in America; Do children in families that have a working mother instead [...]
Women versus Men.
Is there a double standard as it relates to common courtesies among men and women? Men are expected to hold the door open for a woman, which I am always happy to do so when the need arises. But why is it that as I am walking up to the door at our local Wal-Mart [...]
