The Department of Justice should not prosecute CIA officials who carried out Bush Administration interrogation methods. Just doing their job. If we start prosecuting people for doing their job then start with the police and work your way up you loons.

Sonia Sotomayor is not a good choice to replace Justice Souter. She is two faced. She has strong personal opinions and doesn't appear to be able to hold them back from a just decision. Her history is not good enough to be in that position.

The U.S. invasion and occupation has had a positive effect on Iraq. Iraq is on a more civilized path.

President Obama should release new photos depicting U.S. detainee abuse. If they exist, let's see 'em.

Bill O'Reilly should not bear responsibility for the murder of Dr. Tiller. That is ridiculous!

I do not support President Obama's message to the Muslim world. Wrong Message Sent.

Congress should not investigate the Bush Administration's interrogation policies. Waste of Tax Payer Dollars. Focus and Concentrate on our borders, this swine flu, our economy! Look ahead. Not behind.

Memos about CIA torture techniques should not have been released by the Obama Administration. No because they did not release the results. Yes if they released the whole package. There is much more to the story and what was released is only a portion so the public views it a certain way. If someone told you the techique resulted in the terrorist not killing your entire family, then how would you feel?

President Obama's first overseas trip was not a success. Not to me. Embarrassing.

The Tea Party protests are a grassroots movement. Grassroots movement, definitely. That is how Obama did it too. Organized for a cause. The Tea Party protests are a series of locally organized protests across the United States, most of which have developed into nationally coordinated events. The events are in protest of wasteful government spending, the size increase of the federal government, higher taxes, and President Obama's stimulus package and budget. A few of the solutions that protesters demanded include reducing the business tax rate, abolishing taxes on capital gains, abolishing the death tax, and moving to a balanced budget.

Paying taxes is not patriotic. Patriotism is a devotion to humanity and beneficence. For example, providing charity, criticizing slavery, and denouncing excessive penal laws are all considered patriotic. In both ancient and modern visions of patriotism, individual responsibility to fellow citizens is an inherent component of patriotism.

Federal judge Jay Bybee should not be impeached for authoring memos that justified Bush Administration interrogation techniques. Just because The New York Times, in an editorial, has described the memo as depraved and called for Bybee's impeachment, is not justified. There is more to the story than meets the public from the media.

The U.S. should have diplomatic relations with Venezuela. To the best of our ability.

The U.S. military should permit active duty members to access social networking sites. Why wouldn't they?

The EU should deploy U.S. missile defense shields. Each country has the right to decide whether or not to install an anti-missile shield. I see the need to do so at this time.

The 1994 Assault Weapons Ban was not effective. Stupid move. Now there are unregistered gun owners. Remember when they tried Prohibition on Alcohol? Ha!

Coalition forces' efforts in Iraq will help spread democracy throughout the Middle East. Yes it will help. Not sure it will succeed though.

The U.S. should not provide additional financial assistance to Mexico's war on drugs. Not additional financial assistance at this time, but yes some sort of assistance from our side would help, mainly because they are on our border and the US is directly involved and affected & effected.

Diplomatic measures or pressure are the appropriate next steps that the U.S. should take with North Korea. Send Hillary. That's her job.

The U.S. should go to war with Iran if they don't end their nuclear weapons program. If they are out of control and there are no agreements in place, then yeah.

Parental Consent should be required in the abortion decision of a minor. If a minor cannot vote or drink or drive until they are certain ages then Yes Of Couse Parental Consent SHOULD be REQUIRED on this very dangerous decision. Are you people insane that think otherwise?

The U.S. should institute a national ID card system. I picked yes because basically you are talking about calling my VISA a National ID Card. What's the difference?

Tim Kaine is not a good choice for Chairman of the Democratic National Committee. He doesn't walk the talk. His voting history does not match his publically spoken veiws on abortion, the death penalty, or same sex marraige. But why would that be weird for a democrate?

The U.S. Department of Justice should not drop the charges against former Senator Ted Stevens. I think this guy is 86 years old. Maybe just give him a few years in Jail. He will not last in there! How about putting Dodd, Pelosi and Reid in there on his behalf?

The U.S. should negotiate with the Taliban. It's inevitable.

Sex education in schools affects the incidence of abortion. The schools hand out condoms and hook the kids up with the ACLU who get them abortions without notifying the parents! The schools have no business teaching sex education. In my opinion, and my experience, they have screwed it all up. They should have the kids watch an abortion.

There are persuasive non-religious reasons for prohibiting abortions. It's a life you are killing? Is that persuasive and non-religious enough? I think everyone who is for abortion should be forced to watch one.

Hamas is a terrorist organization. Hamas has been responsible for Israel-targeted rocket attacks and shootings ever since Israel has imposed an economic blockade on Gaza. Hamas is considered a terrorist organization by Canada, the European Union, Israel, Japan, and the United States. Hamas describes resisting and quelling the enemy as the individual duty of every Muslim and prescribes vigilant roles for all members of society; including men and women, professionals, scientists and students. The enemy is defined primarily in terms of antisemitic conspiracy theories of world Jewish domination.

Sanjay Gupta is a good choice to be Surgeon General of the United States. Gupta's media presence would have made him ideal for the position. He has the character, training, intelligence and communications skills needed to help the United States improve its health and health care delivery systems in the next Administration. However, in January 2009, it was reported that Gupta was offered the position of Surgeon General in the Obama administration. In March 2009, Gupta withdrew his name from consideration for the post.

The U.S. cannot stabilize Afghanistan. Hypocritical ... If we cannot "stabilize the US" then how can we "Stabilize Afghanistan"?

People did not overreact to Obama's joke about the Special Olympics. Very UnPresidential. Imagine if Bush said it what your answer would be here.

Outer space should not be militarized. Are we now at war with the aliens? Is the government not telling us something? Please, let's hear the truth about Area 51.

Barack Obama is not qualified to be President of the United States. No qualifications there but he made it anyway. Bought his way in there with the help of George Soros, etc. Very well planned. George Soros promised it in 2000 and 2004 and we got it. Obama's ratings have been dropping every day and his left wing agenda is scary.

President Obama's video message to Iran will have a positive effect on U.S.-Iranian relations. Of course. They love Socialism.

Vacant U.S. Senate seats should be filled by popular election. Let the people decide. "We the People"! The Preamble does not assign any powers to the federal government.

All troops should be removed from Iraq at the end of President Obama's 19-month timetable. Bring them home. It occurred to me that no other country helps the US. We are always in everyone else's business though and dishing out money. Name another country that sent help after 9/11.

Timothy Geithner should not remain Secretary of the Treasury. He never should have obtained the position or accepted it. It is so embarrassing that he didn't pay his taxes. What does that tell the rest of the world?

The debts of highly indebted African countries should not be forgiven. A loan is a loan. A contract signed is an agreement. Stick to the agreement and pay back the debt.

War can be justified. Oh this could be a long discussion siting all the wars in all the countries over all those years. Granted there were mistakes, but we are human, right? Talk to the SpartanS!

Congress will not pass immigration reform legislation this year. The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 made it illegal to hire or recruit illegal immigrants. In 2005, the U.S House of Representatives passed the Border Protection, Anti-terrorism, and Illegal Immigration Control Act of 2005, and in 2006 the U.S. Senate passed the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006. Neither bill became law because their differences could not be reconciled in conference committee. Nancy Pelosi will have to make some changes for this to happen this year.
