Ground Zero Mosque Should Not Be Built I agree, I feel they're doing so as a reminder of who did it, and shows no compassion at all.

Hypothetical situation. Israel attacks the U.S. And you are commander in chief. Do you respond by attacking Israel in defense of the U.S.? Will God curse you for attacking them in this situation?

Why did people vote for Obama if they did not want significant healthcare reform? It puzzles me. He made no bones about wanting to reform our healthcare system. I'm all for it (but this is not a healthcare debate here). however, people seem incredibly ignorant on this issue. Why did they vote for him to make health care reform (one of his main campaign issues), and now turn against him when he and Congress seek to carry out that promise? Another thing that puzzles me....most folks over 65 on Medicare I visit with are happy with their medical care. Most folks needing nursing home care want to make themselves Medicaid eligible so the government pays for the nu…

I for one think that Ron Paul will fair better in the 2012 primaries than he did in the 2008 primaries. He will be 76 in 2012, so it still is in question if he would run or not.

Bachmann brings flair, tea party clout to GOP race By BRIAN BAKST - Associated Press | AP – 4 hrs ago... ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — One hand clutches a crisply folded U.S. flag with a concealed weapons certification protruding; the other slides discreetly into a denim coat pocket. Behind the beaming state lawmaker, a silhouette target with bullet holes square in the chest. Next to her nameplate, a "No New Taxes!" sticker. The photo taken during Minnesota Republican Michele Bachmann's initial run for Congress in 2006 captures her essence. In Bachmann's quick rise from state lawmaker to unofficial tea party ambassador in Washington, her brazen style has kept Republican …

The move comes as part of a real estate deal in Chicago. So he caves in! Even though the Christian community gave him wonderful support.
