You've got a lot of things right here.  For example people ARE too caught up in their materialistic life.  So they don't bother to verify the information they receive and only THINK they know what is going on.  If your information comes from television, you probably know a lot about everything, but what you know has nothing to do with the truth.\nClinton is a liar and a person with few if any morals.  He murdered people in Africa and in Europe with missles and bombs.  It took people's attention away from a sexual scandal that only a generation ago would have finished him as a politician.  A public lie used to be taken seriously, as it should be.\nAs for voting for Bush, how could you think of voting for Gore if he was endorsed by a liar, if the truth about his tobacco money was out, if...? Well, you failed again to find out enough.\nAnd election reform?  During your lifetime much more voting fraud results from the use of machines than from hand ballots!  And Gore is the first American candidate for president capable of damaging his country in an attempt to fraudulently win an election.  You again have BELIEVED what you heard and/or read, you haven't verified and learned.\nAll governments waste money, Bush has made serious mistakes...but he has also turned a scared, paralyzed country into a dynamic, functioning one again.  And so unscared that the biggest cowards are lining up to criticize the policies that have made them feel safe enough to speak up again.\nImpeachment is a serious business.  A country cannot function if its president is challenged continuously.  It certainly can't be a process that begins each time the least informed public opinion is demanding it.\nIf not one person you spoke to voted for Bush, I strongly suggest you get out and meet more people.\nDon't ya think?\nAnd stop thinking yourself a commoner, you are a free citizen of what is still the best functioning democracy in the Western world, in large part thanks to the election of George W. Bush.  Use that freedom, do some reading, and talking, and thinking...and stop being USED by the people with money and influence who control too much of what you see and hear!

Yes, as long as your are agreeing with the government.\n\nIt is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong.\n-- Voltaire

Must of us know that. It is a defense that some used. Some feel it is against the people or you would ignore the law. Ever see those questions where it said-we all break them? What kind of morals to they have? Do they truly believe that? \n You are right for many it is about country.

I love the ideals my country was founded upon, but I can't go with whatever retarded campaigns the governement has going.  They are probably spying this question right now.  Limey Bastards!

Specifically, it is obvious that one is a scam.  Generally, there is some scam going on in every part of this country.  In the case of Louisianna, the scam is on tax payers, as recent news reports indicate.  But who didn't see that coming?  When the government gets criticised (British spelling, for no good reason), it starts throwing money.  Why not?  At certain times it will admit that the money isn't theirs.

Relax pal. I come from the X-Soviet Union. You are not loosing any liberties. When it does become too "secure" people usually vote it out in this country. And that is why I prefer to live here, and not there.

Absolutely.  It's what this country is founded on.  If not everything you said would become subjective.  If the right person didn't like what you said you'd be screwed.  This way we know where the line is.  There isn't one.

Your question is a little confusing, but unlike the states government agencies here can be sued by the public if there is a breach in trust, and or law.  Please clarify your question.\n\nIs it false statements, or fraud?

No...only an idiot would! Sorry, idiots...\n\nI think an even better question, one that gets right to the heart of the matter, as it were, is this:\n\nDOES THE U.S. GOVERNMENT TRUST YOU?

I asked a similar question yesterday and completly agree with everything you say - it really does defy belief.\n\nPlus, what sort of messege does this send? e.g. its ok to take drugs, kill someone and go to prison because when you get there you can either carry on taking drugs living in luxery at the taxpayers expense or sue the state and win loads of cash.\n\nEnough is enough - this government is a complete farce and really has lost the plot, my vote will be going elsewhere (anywhere in fact that is not Labour) at the next election. I hope others do the same.

Boy are you inviting grief asking that in this forum...  However, my heartfelt answer is: Where-ever you find love, why not be allowed to make that committment?\n\nI don't see how the government letting you marry the person you love in any way threatens me and my marriage and my family - I would still choose a heterosexual relationship whether or not gay marriage is legal - so my family life does not need defending from your legal status.  I truly believe that you would not chose this lifestyle if you had a choice.  \n\nGood luck to you.

Whatever you do don't "beat around the bush" to say cause it can hurt to not know the truth. Just asked anyone who has ever been lied to.

Good for you Sarah, you've done some reading and made up your own mind. That's as refreshing as it seems to be unusual these days.\n\nKeep reading. The World is a dark place right now and your present Government has a lot to do with the clouds coming over the horizon.

~Well, as I sit here in rural America, the Indian government has been very good about checking with me before passing any new laws or regulations, and they almost always keep me abreast of any changes.  Somehow, this one must have slipped by.  I'll let them know of their oversight and get back to you, ok?

Last time I checked there was more than one 'State' in our lovely country.\n\nGet it right.
