I do agree that we need to get out of Iraq...but before we do....I think we need to finish the job...we need to get Saddam out and we did....now we're trying to do the Christian thing and help Iraq get back on its feet....and if you are for fighting in Afghanistan....then why not Iraq....they are all terrorist and there main goal is to take down the rest of the world....they attacked the U.S. on American soil...now we've retaliated....If someone hits you....Hit them back.

Walk up to a congressmen or senator and ask them to work free without pay for one year because they don't do anything anyway and see what they tell you...It's all about the cash...I ask one that one time and you should've seen the look I got...You gotta love a job where you can vote yourself a pay raise without any objections who will turn that down? I think they should work a year without pay and donate it toward things like this Hurricane relief then we may weed some of these idiots out of office.

And just because you're against abortion, gay marriage, gays in the military, religious initiatives, etc. does not mean there aren't some democrats out there who don't hold your same ideals. There are many conservative democrats and liberal republicans who could probably run this country a lot better than the religious right is doing right now.

I agree......thats exactly why I said you need to vote for the best candidate...not your favorite party.

I'd give anything to be able to run for office but I would get run out also because I would be for the people and you know them elected officials they don't want that.

I cant beleive you would say that you would vote for Boucher "because he cares about the people". Boucher only cares about what makes him look pretty. Every business that has come to Clintwood in the past 5 years Boucher has been right there to look pretty for the camera and soak in all the glory for it. But when everyone packs up and leaves in a year, his name or face is nowhere to be found. The only thing keeping Boucher afloat is the UMWA and last I heard they werent to happy with him.

Get out of Iraq- but "they are all terrorists" kill'em all. MMMMM.... that Christian thing -didn't fit with that kill all the "terrorists before we leave," Bush screwed around TOOOOOOO long, you know it and I do. Hit'em back- just anybody or are we gonna be selective like we should have YEARS ago and knocked off a few leaders, in other places, but then again I run into my morals on pre-emptive strikes, so do I get my collar out, like Bush and run for office, or do I go down like Ollie North? I hate talking to myself......I make so much sense if you can think that fast [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I believe Spudsmac is a wise man.

I'll say this much for him when I lived over there he helped us out alot and has done alot for SWVA in some way shape or form...He probably does some things but has done alot of good also...I haven't been over there in 4 years since I moved to Kingsport.
