Opinions
Barack Obama is qualified to be President of the United States.
The government that governs least does not govern best. No. Our government is voice of the people. By silencing government, you silence the people.
The government should permit late term abortions when a woman's life is at risk. Either they both die, or one lives. It's is tough but the decision seems obvious.
John McCain's age will affect his presidential campaign positively. Among other things...like his warped points of view.
Sarah Palin was a good choice for John McCain's vice presidential candidate. Good for me because it shows just how incompetent Mccain can be.
Race will positively affect Barack Obama's candidacy. Even more a sign of change. It's symbolism that americans love.
Oprah Winfrey's endorsement will have a positive impact on Barack Obama's candidacy. Yup. Anybody that knows anything, knows that when Oprah says it....the people respond!
John McCain is exploiting his POW experience. John McCain didn't even show up to vote for the GI Bill. Certainly he doesn't support the troops like folks believe he does, so he needs something to keep people thinking he does.
Michelle Obama will be an asset for her husband in the general election. Very strong woman. Amazing speaker. You couldn't ask for better!
There are not persuasive non-religious reasons for prohibiting abortions. Babies are cute.
Iran should not be held accountable for Hezbollah's actions.
Georgia should become a member of NATO.
The EU should accept Turkey as a new member.
Congress should not eliminate the estate tax.
The U.S. should act to stop the genocide in Darfur, Sudan. You want to spread peace and prosperity? Let's liberate some people who truly are living in hell.
Based on the information available at the time of the invasion of Iraq, it was not justified.
President Bush will be a liability for John McCain in the general election.
Joseph Biden was a good choice for Obama's vice presidential candidate. Yup. Perfect.
The U.S. should not reinstate the draft. Not at the moment.
Women should be allowed in forward support companies working with combat battalions. If they can take a bullet, they can shoot one as well.
The U.S. military should not award the Purple Heart to soldiers suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). No. This isn't what the purple heart is about.
Iraq's national oil industry should not be privatized. Let the Iraqi's decide.
The Afghanistan-Pakistan region should have the higher priority in the War on Terrorism. This is obvious here.
It is not appropriate to compare the War on Terror to World War II. Not even close.
KBR should be held responsible for the electrocution deaths of American soldiers. It was their fault. I just don't trust KBR, or any war profiteers, at all.
Iraq's oil revenue should be used to finance all of the country's reconstruction. Sure, they have enough of it. Only an idiot would ignore that gold mine.
Police should take photo surveillance at public demonstrations. If it's on public property in view of the public, then who cares.
Denying or trivializing the Holocaust should not be criminalized. Freedom of speech should apply everywhere.
No parental involvement should be required in the abortion decision of a minor.
Roe v. Wade should not be overturned.
Roe v. Wade will not be overturned.
John McCain should not be required to release his psychiatric records. Privacy issue. I don't care. I know he's crazy.
Barack Obama will win the 2008 presidential election. Despire what FOX news tells you on their polls, things are not closing in. This election could be a landslide if McCain keeps messing up.
John McCain receives more favorable press coverage than Barack Obama. Since McCain keeps messing up it's hard to make him seem like a nicer guy than he is.
Obama's foreign trip will have a positive effect have on his candidacy.
Hillary Clinton should not place her name in nomination at the 2008 Democratic National Convention.
The Russia-Georgia conflict will not lead to another Cold War. Not if we use diplomacy and intelligent conversation.
General election debates should include third party candidates.
Debates do not have a significant impact on voters. I don't think many voters watch the debates.
Undocumented immigrants who file income tax returns should receive tax rebates. If they put into the system, they should get out of it.
