    "We don't need a Jane Fonda as commander in chief,"

    Ah yes, we should all lie to ourselves and pretend Vietnam was like a trip to an amusement park, and anyone who disagrees is obviously an America-hating, Commie-loving traitor.

    U.S. Soldiers Re-Enlist in Strong Numbers

    Hmm, I saw just a week or two ago, in USA Today I believe, that overall enlistment was down. Before the war, enlistment was growing, and now it's going down. It was still pretty high though (97% ?).

    Now that we have captured Saddam and killed his sons what more does the USA really owe Iraq?

    We owe them their country back. Of course, that's not something we can give them, but we'll have to do the best we can and try to rebuild and achieve stability.

    POLL: Who Actually Watches Fox News and Takes it seriously?!

    Fox is just, well, fox. Do they actually report news on their channel, or is it all just right-wing spin? Faux News, indeed. Of course, I watch it because Bill O'Reilly is fairly amusing.

    Poll: What is your sexuality?

    Here's a vote for #2. I think the 10% figure is a bit high. My observations would indicate around 2-4%. However, these are people who are reasonably "out." If closeted homosexuals are included the number could well rise to 10% Actually, there was a recent poll conducted (I'll dig up the...

    U.S. to start deporting Gays: States put Law on the books and begin banning Gays

    Why are you against gays entering into the same social contract that straight people enter into unless you dislike them?

    U.S. to start deporting Gays: States put Law on the books and begin banning Gays

    I find it interesting that you seem to believe the United States should be based on your religion. I thought this country was about freedom. Apparently not, from your perspective. Yeah, damn f4gs and bitches thinking they should be treated like the white guys.

    U.S. to start deporting Gays: States put Law on the books and begin banning Gays

    I guess that means I'll be crossing Columbus off my "places I'd like to live" list. I find it utterly reprehensible that states and indeed the federal government would even consider building discrimination into their constitutions.

    "racist" and "anti-homosexual" t-shirts

    If republicans want this sort of image attached to them, so be it. Honestly though, I don't see how some people selling shirts is a reflection on the Republican party as a whole. An appropriate response would be to simply say that "these shirts do not represent the views of the republic...

    Do you like Radiohead?

    Street Spirit is a good song. Other than that, no.

    IRAQI SCIENTISTS: THE WEAPONS WERE DESTROYED WAY BEFORE THE WAR STARTED

    I believe there was a limit on how far his missiles could go (namely, he couldn't have a missile capable of striking Israel). How do his actions in 1988 reflect his actions in 2003? A lot has changed in the last 13-14 years. Just because he had weapons at some point in the past doesn't mean...

    girls of starbucks.....

    Playboy is also doing a "Girls of WalMart" issue. Starbucks rocks. Looks do matter in some jobs, and the better looking person will get the job over the one who isn't so hot, assuming they're otherwise similarly qualified.

    IRAQI SCIENTISTS: THE WEAPONS WERE DESTROYED WAY BEFORE THE WAR STARTED

    I don't know why conservatives feel the need to bring up Clinton everytime someone criticizes Bush. It's as if you believe that because other presidents haven't been perfect, Bush is immune to all criticism. Why would I vote for someone who I know lied about iraq, and who has knowingly signed...
