When the American public understands that Osama Bin Laden has been dead for years?
Will we get a new enemy to wage taxpayers money for war on? Maybe the Easter bunny, Tooth fairy,When will we realise that these endless wars will only line the pockets of war ---mongers and make THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA the worlds enemy. It seems to me that WE are the terrorists

We really are the terrorists. We invade countries that have nothing to do with one stupid attack that killed less people on our turf than theirs.
2 :
We've had him bottled up since 2002. That's good enough for me until some moron crying out for attention democrat president brings our troops home and frees him. (When complete idiots like you try to make the claim that America is a nation of terrorists, you defile American standards and way of life, and you make people hate all liberals. Maybe you should go live in Beirut or Kandahar or Islamabad and find out what real terrorism is.)

First off don't you dare put me in that "WE" pal. Second, I guess you just ignored the latest video of UBL about a month ago, where he talked about current events. Blind ideology will not serve you well at all.
4 :
he is Not dead The CIA thinks he is alive The FBI thinks he is alive The Pentagon thinks he is alive The past bush administration thinks he is alive The current Obama administration thinks he is alive The Security Agencies of... Pakistan Afghanistan Saudi Arabia France and the United Kingdom ALL think he is alive and of course Osama still makes and releases audio tapes on a Regular basis !!!!!
5 :
You do realize that the countries in which we are in were killing their own people and threatening or fighting war, and exporting terrorism on their neighbors before we got there. Hm? Violence that had nothing to do with grievances with us or Israel?
6 :
If he were dead his people would have martyred him. I understand what you're saying about enemy conjuring to bring fear to the people. This has been a practice for a very long time. It was the Nazis and The Red Scare,etc. It doesn't seem to end.

I read this on Yahoo Answers and I just wanna help pass it on :-) I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment and sat down in my Assigned seat. It was going to be a long flight.. 'I'm glad I have a Good book to read Perhaps I will get a short nap,' I thought. Just before take-off, a line of soldiers came down the aisle and Filled all the vacant seats, totally surrounding me. I decided to Start a conversation. 'Where are you headed?' I asked the soldier Seated nearest to me. 'Petawawa. We'll be there for two weeks for special training, and then We're being deployed to Afghanistan After flying for about an hour, an announcement was made that sack Lunches were available for five dollars. It would be several hours Before we reached the east, and I quickly decided a lunch would help Pass the time.. As I reached for my wallet, I overheard soldier ask his buddy if he Planned to buy lunch. 'No, that seems like a lot of money for just a Sack lunch. Probably wouldn't be worth five bucks. I'll wait till we Get to base ' His friend agreed. I looked around at the other soldiers. None were buying lunch. I Walked to the back of the plane and handed the flight attendant a 0AFifty dollar bill. 'Take a lunch to all those soldiers.' She grabbed My arms and squeezed tightly. Her eyes wet with tears, she thanked Me. 'My son was a soldier in Iraq ; it's almost like you are doing it For Him.' Picking up ten sacks, she headed up the aisle to where the soldiers Were seated. She stopped at my seat and asked, 'Which do you like Best - beef or chicken?' 'Chicken,' I replied, wondering why she asked. She turned and went to The front of plane, returning a minute later with a dinner plate from First class. 'This is your thanks.' After we finished eating, I went again to the back of the plane, Heading for the rest room. A man stopped me. 'I saw what you did. I Want to be part of it. Here, take this.' He handed me twenty-five Dollars. Soon after I returned to my seat, I saw the Flight Captain coming down The aisle, looking at the aisle numbers as he walked, I hoped he was Not looking for me, but noticed he was=2 0looking at the numbers only on My side of the plane. When he got to my row he stopped, smiled, h eld Out his hand, an said, 'I want to shake your hand.' Quickly unfastening my seatbelt I stood and took the Captain's hand. With a booming voice he said, 'I was a soldier and I was a military Pilot. Once, someone bought me a lunch. It was an act of kindness I Never forgot.' I was embarrassed when applause was heard from all of The passengers. Later I walked to the front of the plane so I could stretch my legs. A man who was seated about six rows in front of me reached out his Hand, wanting to shake mine.. He left another twenty-five dollars in My palm. When we landed I gathered my belongings and started to deplane. Waiting just inside the airplane door was a man who stopped me, put Something in my shirt pocket, turned, and walked away without saying a Word. Another twenty-five dollars! Upon entering the terminal, I saw the soldiers gathering for their Trip to the base. I walked over to them and handed them seventy-five Dollars. 'It will take you some time to reach the base. It will be About time for a sandwich. God Bless You.' Ten young men left that flight feeling the love and respect of20their Fellow travelers. As I walked briskly to my car, I whispered a prayer For their safe retu rn. These soldiers were giving their all for our Country. I could only give them a couple of meals. It seemed so little... A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check Made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up To and including my life.' That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who No longer understand it.' May God give you the strength and courage to pass this along to your buddy list....

That so just brought tears to my eyes. It really hit home. We had a situation the other day where it was literally the day before pay day and my husband missed the bus to do some training. My stepfather called the gas station to see if he could pay with his credit card for a bit of gas over the phone. The attendant had the phone on speaker and a customer overheard the conversation. She said she'd give my husband a ride but couldn't wait for him to get there because she had somewhere to be. So she left enough money to fill up his truck at the gas station and said to pass the message of her thanks for his service along to us. We would've loved to have been able to pay her back but she refused to leave any identifying information. That was definitely a blessing and I would love more than anything to hug her and express my thanks.

OK-a disgruntled atheist asked about our money-Would "In US weTrust" be a fair consideration?
Many people are represented by the United States of America-As a matter of fact I know of no other country that is as diversified-when it comes down to Our Constitution-we have seperated church and state-and yet the Christian Majority has the mass of power in our system because of their majority vote-their elected officials are not all wearing Priests collars though and so we are not subjected to the religious right-So we Realists don't care to trust a God we find in a substitute for remedies and an excuse for ignorance-I have that right to believe this-never-the-less In God We Trust could align a considerable amount support with those that believe-Christian Muslim jew-what have you-which are definitely the majority-BUT DOES THAT MAKE IT RIGHT? and U know the answer is a firm no. And yet i have fought for freedoms and rights in my great country the good ol USA for a considerably long time and have had much support from my fellow American-US-In We The People we Trust-too long-nice ring

Atheists are a trifling minority in America and your political opinions barely register on the scope of opinion polls. Nevertheless I saw the phrase "In reason we trust" scribbled across the defaced surface of a paper bill one day. I don't see how anyone would "trust" in the U.S. Reason seems like a decent compromise except that it is sacrilegious to us Christians but then again we have removed God from the public square in every other way. It seems like money will eventually be purged too.

Well, the whole 'Under God' and 'In God We Trust' crap came about in the 50's to differentiate us from the Communists.Since the situation leading to that change is history( no pun intended), there's no reason to keep up with it, and this country,which guarantees religious freedom needs to leave religion and beliefs out of politics (and please,will someone tell George W that?!!).How about In The People We Trust? It was still a democracy. last I heard.I wonder how many people would get their knickers in a twist if it were to become 'In The Goddess We trust'?

I have 2 points to make: One: Well, I am Christian. And I will admit, you do make a good argument. However, you have to remember that not just Christians believe in God. You sound like a very intelligant person so I am sure you know that. I dont think this decision will go over well. I do believe in the separtion of church and state because I realize that we all are not made to have the same religion, but many religions out there worship the same God that we do, they just have different names. My second point: I highly doubt that even people who dont believe in God will go with this idea. While they may like the idea, I see athiests and religious people not liking "In US we trust" because many people today dont trust the US government. I think that would be the second strongest argument. It will be interesting to see how other people feel about this. Good question!

I think it is important to remember though, that the men who originally fought for our freedom were religious, God-fearing men. It is their hand in our Constitution and Justice system that placed God as an important figure in American Governance. And yes, state and church are separate, but simply keep aware of the others existance, and certainly not deny it. It is our privilege and duty to honor our founding fathers' role in the way we are able to live our lives, and one way that is done is by preserving their courage and lifestyle. I'm not trying to tell you that you're wrong or anything. I'm not even trying to persuade anyone. I'm just letting you know why I think "In God We Trust" is still around, and still important.

Is This The Most Dangerous Man in the United States, and The World?
Is This The Most Dangerous Man in the United States, and The World?
Donald Trump knows nothing about politics or foreign policy. For example, this is what he said about Libya: • He said he would charge the Libyan rebels 5Billion to defend them. He said that was "chump change to them" These are peasants who go into battle in 92 Toyota pickups. They have no money. Besides, when have we ever charged a nation for protecting them? Did we do it in WW1 or WW2, Bosnia, etc. • • But more ignorantly, he has said that if it were up to him he would just "go to Libya and take all the oil"( "I'd do one thing. Either I'd go in and take the oil or I don't go in at all," Is he suggesting we invade Libya by land, or does he think we already did? (apparently he doesn't understand this is just an air campaign) After that we fight Gadaffi And the rebels for control of the oil fields, and take all the Libyan oil? Where would that leave Libya? Without revenue it would become a failed nation like Somalia, and be a breeding ground for Al Queda and other terrorists. • •"In the old days, when you have a war and you win, that nation is yours." (Does he want to start World War 3?) -Donald Trump on foreign policy Only Stalinist Russia and Nazi Germany had the policy of "you win, that nation is yours" This Ringmaster act he is performing is drawing him a lot of attention but when will Americans wake up and realize this is all just an act to get publicity? Trump has announced on at least 4 other occasions in the past that he "might" run for President. Everything he says and does is for showmanship and to showcase his masterful knowledge of everything on earth and heaven. Is this the most manipulative and deceitful character in America today? His "birther" act is just a ploy to get attention, which is apparently what keeps him alive. It's been disproven over and over, and the Supreme Court has refused to hear it 3 times. Are they also part of the conspiracy? Are Michelle Bachmann, Bill O'Reilly, the State of Hawaii and the entire government of the United States also complicit in this "cover up". This is just childish irresponsibility, all done to draw attention to himself, which he does very well. He says that "birth announcements in general do not exist" and says this about Obama's parents: "Two poor people, a man and a woman with no money, they have a baby. There's announcements in the newspaper? Nelson Rockefeller doesn't put announcements in. I've never seen one." -Nelson Rockefeller? These are only 3 of the policies/issues Trump has brought up since his bid to run. How many more insane ideas do you think he will bring up before the nomination. This man is no politician. Can't you see Trump is deceiving you for attention, which apparently is the only thing that keeps him alive. This is the most dangerous and inexperienced man you could possibly put in the White house. He is a master at deception, and he is deceiving you. He has announced on at least 4 other occasions in the past that he "might" run for President. What makes you think this will be any different?

There's announcements in the newspaper? Nelson Rockefeller doesn't put announcements in. I've never seen one." -Nelson Rockefeller? These are only 3 of the policies/issues Trump has brought up since his bid to run. How many more insane ideas do you think he will bring up before the nomination. This man is no politician. Can't you see Trump is deceiving you for attention, which apparently is the only thing that keeps him alive. This is the most dangerous and inexperienced man you could possibly put in the White house. He is a master at deception, and he is deceiving you. He has announced on at least 4 other occasions in the past that he "might" run for President. What makes you think this will be any different?

next to the "village idiot" and palin I would have to agree.

Republicans are going to elect Ron Paul, Rand Paul, Peter Schiff, or Paul Ryan in 2012. Anyone should be able to beat obama in 2012, unless everyone just enjoys hyperinflating

This makes no sense. Check out this link, it is only a few seconds, so please take the time to listen to it. How can Obama grow up with this type of mentoring about God, but yet be the President of the United States and say God Bless America when he is taught God damn America - which is the quote from the link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nH5ixmT83JE

You have a lot to learn especially if you think a grown man and a graduate of Harvard wan't grown up by the time he went to Chicago seems like YOU are the one that needs to grow up and get informed by the way The ONLY thing that makes YOU, me or anyone else a Christian, is professing Jesus Christ as your Saviour, which Obama has done. For any Christian to judge him after his profession, means they don't even understand their own religion, much less the Muslim faith, which calls for DEATH to any Muslim that would profess anyone other than Allah to be Saviour

What he was taught as child and what he now believes as as adult are 2 very different things. Our country does not subscribe to one religion, so who cares. Also, Islam does not teach "God damn America". Do some research somewhere other than crap on Youtube.

Obama didn't "grow up" in Chicago. He was an adult when he moved there. BTW, the US is a secular nation..not a Christian one.

In God we trust; all others pay cash. Your Q: easy. You grew up in America and still can't think. Obama may have sat in a church that was dissimilar from Palin's church, but that does not mean he is influenced by it. I attended a Baptist church that preached Catholics were devil worshipers and going to hell. I was taught that Catholics worshiped the Pope and statues and that what went on in Catholic churches was blasphemy. But I married a Catholic woman. We do not become our surroundings unless we want to.
13 :
Give it up, He is your President. You better believe God will Judge America for creating a false God, the one Palin said, the War in Iraq was a task sent from God to kill hundreds of thousand men, women and children for no cause because your President lied!! America will Reap what she has Sowed.

Do you support the 2010 commitment to america?
Do you support the 2010 commitment to america?
2010 Commitment to America We the People of the United States of America, reclaiming our inalienable rights, demand that Congress bring an end to the out-of-control spending of our tax dollars and the intrusive growth of the Federal Government. To this end, we demand that Members of Congress do the following: 1. Stop the massive spending that is bankrupting America. Start with no new bailouts. Roll back federal spending to 2007 levels and cap annual spending growth at the rate of inflation plus population growth. 2. Vote for a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution that also requires a 2/3 supermajority to raise taxes. 3. Repeal or defund the government takeover of our health care. Start over with health care reform that is patient centered and reduces - not raises - our health care costs. 4. Repeal the automatic tax increases scheduled for 2011. Vote against increased taxation, including energy taxes and value added taxes. 5. Require "sunset" provisions for every spending program passed and every agency created by Congress. 6. Legislate limits on excessive agency rule making by requiring that Congress vote to approve all major new rules. 7. Demonstrate legislative transparency. Five days in advance of a vote, post online all bills, resolutions and conference reports. Require roll call votes on all measures that spend money. 8. Hold no votes in a "lame duck" session that would increase spending, taxes or regulation. This would include, for example, cap and trade, card check and immigration. 9. Abide by the principle that any law that does not apply to Congress or its staff does not apply to the American people. 10. Provide specific citations from the Constitution for any legislation introduced.

The second portion is outright idiotic and whoever wrote should kill themselves. I am NOT kidding. Are you arguing we should be able to declare war or vote for Use of Force Resolutions with a simple majority but not raise taxes on the richest Americans without a 2/3 super-super majority?

No. We can't complain about the deficit on hand without addressing revenue on the other. Christ, this is so stupid. 5.) Too vague and elementary. 6.) Again, way, way, way, too vague and childish. Just waht is a "major new rule?" Did you write this up yourself? I hope not. 7.) Sure, but that won't make anyone care. People support or oppose legislation based on the party of the person in the White House, not its merits. 8.) Why not? In an emergency that may well be necessary. 9.) Like what? 10.) That hasn't been done, ever. The Constitutionality or lack thereof of legislation is decided in the Courts, exactly as our founders intended.

i like all of it, but history shows that populist promises are soon forgotten when special interests covertly exert their influence over the process. it is THE PROCESS that needs to be transformed and THE DYNAMIC that needs to be reformed. the constitution is a covenant between the states to form a union. the covenant has been broken. the fed cannot function without full cooperation from the states. if even a dozen or so states told the congress and supreme court to go to hell and stopped all cooperation all together (not civil war, just complete obfuscation) the federal government would COLLAPSE. the supreme court, once and for all, needs to understand the severity of legislating from the bench and not respecting the constitutional limitations on government power. "general welfare" does not mean anything you want it to mean, and "interstate commerce" is not me sitting on the couch not buying what you want me to buy or planting tomatos in my garden. these promises in the "committment" are all fine, but they are temporal politics, just like the "contract with america". they are promises to treat the symptoms of the disease while letting the cancer grow.
