Bill You suggest that until people choose peace over war things won't change. How is this is achieved if one side will not choose peace? I don't mean to over simplify but you make it sound the same way. Amazon is 100% correct.

So you feel that people are too stupid to figure it out ? I guess I could use that logic to explain Nov 4th...Prop 8 ? the election ? Alot of other things as well. I agree 100% with you that you treat people like you wish to be treated, but what if they don't do the same ? What if they are violent ? Is the U.N. the answer ? Should we turn the other cheek ?

I don't really have a problem with following the Geneva Conventions. I don't really see the new admin following the Bush doctrine for better or worse do you ?

I think it would make some happy if we could get the ACLU involved....

If you don't like the electoral collage. then why ? Do you see any potential issues if just the pop vote is used ? Just wondering...

I too don't like GWB but I took your comment as the Dems needed to thank him for their win last night. Should they not be giving credit to their ideas that got them here ? Maybe you see something else. I'm off to work now, need more tax money...

So you agree that the Dems in the House, Senate and White House could never have gotten elected based on their ideas ? Interesting.... Do you think this is from a hatred of Bush or an uninformed population ?

So by your own words we have already seen the #1 thing Obama will do ? It is to show the world the US is not in the hands of 2 families ? I don't think he showed this, maybe the voters did though. If this is really the #1 thing as you put it, then maybe you have very low hope for him. I personally won't judge what he does until around 6 months in office, but I expect much more from a man who promises change. I'll be glad to see Bush go but I worry that we'll see change that a majority won't like. As for Obama renewing faith from the rest of the world. I'm happy for them, but I question as to weather they have out best interests in mind.

So if I may summarize from these posts. No one is really expecting much "change". At least in the first 6 months...Maybe I should have said 4 yrs sheesh.

He may have been thinking about McCain but the quote belonged to Obama. I take it we should just ignore it ? After all we don't want to smear anyone...

What do you think a president Obama will be able to do in his first 6 months ? I mean if he has the senate and house with him should he not be able to make improvements that we can see and or feel ? Should at least several of his campaign promises be fullfilled ? I am curious...

So are you saying we should Not grow the economy so we can not pass on bills to our grandchildren ? I think that means "paying our own way"...Where have I heard that before ?

Based on what you say and the fact that the avg IQ in the US is 98. I would say there is not much to worry about... Hong Kong was the highest IIRC at 107

Just like a Lib...Always wanting sumthin fo nutin. I didn't want to see you left hanging out there prof.

It won't apply to NBC,CBS etc because they don't lean to the right, thus they are already "fair".
