    what does America stand for in your eyes?

    Is it that vague American dream? Or maybe equality? Or maybe opportunity? Or is it quality of life? Well, for me it stands for one thing and one thing above all else. FREEDOM. I hope that everyone will keep that in mind as history unfolds before us. Look at every...

    Rahm Emanuel Wants “Compulsory Service” for Your Kids

    Ice, I want to say this with all due respect. YOU NEED A DOSE OF REALITY. Now having said that, if the points you so eloquently made are true, we as a nation would not need the "civil service" that is being talked about. Keep in mind that Americans already donate more of their time and...

    If one of the big three autos go bankrupt or gov takeover what will happen

    I'd just like to add that American cars are NOT inferior to the Japanese cars. They ARE different. GM and the rest may have made some huge blunders not revamping the style of their cars and trucks but they built what the consumer wanted/needed. The asians have been making small cars...

    The next shoe to drop: Ford and GM

    While you and the rest of the world are probably correct, I have a 1996 chevy silverado with right at 200k and it runs fine. My father just replaced a 1988 siverado that had 480K. The only reason he replaced it was because he got rearended and the insurance co. totaled it.

    Confiscation of retirement.

    "Your probably too young to know this but 401Ks and IRAs are a relatively new concept. Up until 20 years ago corporate America took responsibility for peoples retirement. The idea of turning that over to the individual makes a lot of sense on paper, but in reality most are ill equipped to manage...

    The real truth about Republicans-

    That study is basically BS. Without being balanced by another study in at least one other part of the country it lacks any credibility other than around Berkley. I would wager that the exact same study done at say Vanderbilt in Nashville would prove the exact opposite. It is irresponsible...

    Rahm Emanuel: Another banking criminal

    One thing everyone should be aware of is this, (forget the young part) its educated people that seem to not like republicans. Of course not all educated people. My point is "educated" people keep referring to themselves as intelligent people. Education and intelligence do not go hand in...

    Poll roundup with one day left

    You guys can tell that they are talking about the battle ground states, and the Fox news poll right? See, two different statistics two different polls. Actually more than two but I do not want to confuse you all anymore than you evidently already are.

    Election - Market Reaction

    I do not think many people are out there waiting on the election to start buying again. I do think people are waiting on the election to start selling again. So no matter who wins a lot of people are going to think it is negative and start selling.

    Lets compare obama to another famous black man

    blb, I think their are members of those groups that might agree with you. but the thing is their are also people out there that make descisions based on what is good for everyone. Not just what is bad for those they do not like. It is strange that you say if you were those people you...

    Lets compare obama to another famous black man

    ZZZzzz I understand what you are saying. And as bad as this is going to sound, even though I agree with you, I am not going to vote for president to heal the racial wounds we do still have. As important as the race factor is I (and I am white so I admit there is a chance I am biased) do...

    Lets compare obama to another famous black man

    ZZZZZZzzzzz you evidently missed the point. Maybe I failed to make the point. I never intended to say people in the south would vote for either of the two people I mentioned. I meant to make the point that people in the south like the two people I mentioned. Even though they are black...

    Red State Socialism

    I can't argue with that. I would be interested in finding out the growth rate of industry and small to medium business in southern states vs the rest of the country.

    Lets compare obama to another famous black man

    BD, I see your point. I do not know why these people are not pro Obama. I only know that it is not because he is black.

    Red State Socialism

    BD, you might be right about the ability of government in those states. But the chart isn't for and does not mention the ability to govern. Certainly the ability to govern will influence the chart though. The point I meant to make is that the chart does not provide all the facts and...

    is an election the best indicator of all?

    bio Do you think like I do, that people are more concerned with economic issues right now. I mean pretty much anything the republicans throw at Obama, his people could not care less. I think the "well off" or those who aspire to be well off are going to vote republican. The poor...

    Is the economy rather sound?

    It seems to me that the majority of our economy here in the US is actually sound. It seems like only or at least mostly, finance and anything very involved with financing is what is broken. Were it not for finances huge troubles would the US be having much economic trouble?

    A question about the poverty level.

    I was actualy refering to some pretty good people. These guys arent interested in having things. They are more do'ers than have'ers. I know there are some people out there like you mentioned. they would rather steal than buy or maybe just borrow for a long time. But thats not...
