Take a look at these polling numbers of the gebric congressional voting preference: Newsweek: Democrats 50 GOP 38 Pew: Democrats 52 GOP 40 Fox News: Democrats 38 GOP 35 Not even Fox News could manufactire a GOP lead. Is there any way the Democrats won't take back Congress? I don't see how. Do you think we can protest the Democratic government or something?

Has anyone here ever been banned from FR and you are a sincere conservative, not just some troll? If so, why were you banned? Just a question..

Can Iraq's Policy Affect the US$ and Euro? Iraq decided to no longer accept dollars for oil... what do you think will be the effect on the greenback and on the Euro?" The burning question in cyber-space today is "Will this policy be limited to just Iraq?" In my opinion, we will see the dollar having to bid for Euro's instead of oil directly. That will reverse the current Euro-Dollar relationship. It will create a high demand for Euro's causing a higher Euro valuation; the dollar will significantly devalue against the Euro by 30% or more. Also, since the Euro...

I was under the impression that this is a site for meaningful DISCUSSION. However, after two dissenting posts - neither of which violated the terms of use - I found myself banned. How very typical. I hope you enjoy stewing in your intellectual boxes, because not letting in fresh ideas is going to suffocate your intellects. I apologize for bringing my foreign concepts of "debate" and "free speech" to your forum. I will not trouble you further.

Do you think she'll go out with me?

So many people have been coerced into mistakenly believing that Bush is their savior. It is US against the Republicans AND a large segment of the American people. A 2004 election does not encourage me into thinking that the Democrats could upset Bush¡¦s wagon. After robbery in broad daylight of election 2000, the Democrats would have to force their way into the White House, even if they were elected in 2004. We hear about voting machines that can be rigged with no paper trail. Are the Democrats making a stink about this? No! In my opinion, the democrats will be...

Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity. -Thomas Jefferson, Notes on Virginia, 1782 Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity. -Thomas Jefferson, Notes on Virginia, 1782 History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance of which their civil as well as religious leaders will...

Who cares if it is the National Enquirer? They were right about Limbaugh. I didn't think they would be right about Limbaugh, but they were. MAYBE SOMEONE INFORMED BECAUSE THEY REALIZE HELP IS NEEDED! THIS ISNT A JOKE. ITS ABOUT LIVES, ALL OF OURS! We need to know? WHO CARES ABOUT POLITICS. IS OUR PRESIDENT SOBER? WHY CANT WE GET AN ANSWER? ALL OF MY GROUP MEMBERS THINK THIS IS SCARY. WE JUST NEED AN HONEST ANSWER. Cheney can be President. Maybe the President needs help. ITS TOO IMPORTANT TO IGNORE. ALL OUR LIVES DEPEND ON IT. DEMOCRAT, REPUBLICAN --...

Doug From Upland's siting Arianna Huggington and Al Gore exiting large vehicles at a conference on the environment in San Francisco has set the blogs afire. But there are legitimate uses for large vehicles. Really there are. The I just don't think one person driving the LA freeways in one because the want to win a collision contest at the expense of the unfortunate person they might collide with isn't one. Neither is having bigger, always spinning wheels than your neighbor. Neither is because you get a tax writeoff for a vehicle you use only for commuting and driving to...

I’m not a bigot but I believe this question must be asked. A closeted gay chief justice will be vulnerable to blackmail and may try to implement an insidious agenda to destroy the traditional family. Here’s some of the evidence: -he only married in his 40s. -his children were all adopted. -he has supported gay rights in pro bono work. And I'm not even getting into all the stories about his high school years... Then we have the pictures: hmm how many guys here ever posed for a picture holding a dish? I was googling about gay judges and found...

Here's proof! The kitties are are loser souses just like your hero President. BTW, your boy really stunk in his speech last night. It was like, "oooooo I'm the modern FDR, JFK, and LBJ all rolled into one. I'll give you whatever you want if you'll forget how my incompetence let people die of thirst on a freeway overpass." What a loser

I received this via email in the past few minutes, has anyone else read this? This can't be true surely? Washington (AP) - President Bush has, by all accounts received harsh criticism over his handling of the Katrina relief effort. Earlier Tuesday, he publicly stated that he takes responsibility for the federal government's failures in the aftermath of Katrina, but what Bush may do next could surprise many observers. Senior Republican party sources have indicated to AP that Vice President, Dick Cheney led a delegation of administration officials unhappy with the federal response to hurricane Katrina and its aftermath to...

I was doing a routine search about the life of Rush Limbaugh. I ran into some wild accusations. I do not want to repeat them. I was shocked because the statements were new to me. I am wondering if others have run into these and what they think. Here is one link: http://pssht.com/biography/rush_limbaugh.html I am a paleo-conservative, not a DU troll. I have read FR for almost 7 years and post often.

I've been thinking about this: Has anyone considered that, maybe, Governor Blanco DELIBERATELY delayed acting because she knew she would create a human trajedy she could then blame on the President? The Mayor may be in on it too, but I can't believe that the governor of a state, faced with images of desperate people in New Orleans on TV, wouldn't have picked up the phone and BEGGED the President to move the ENTIRE military to her state/cities. I mean, think about it: These people had been trying to "get" President Bush for years! The Jersey Girls (9-11 widows) didn't...
