#2 Really haven't had much in checks and balances since the Supremes decided 40 years ago to start issuing fiats that remain largely unchallenged. O'Conner's comments after retiring along the lines of 'how dare they critize us' pretty much defines the attitude of our new rulers.

#3 bk, if you want to really see "no checks and balances" just let the Dems take control of everything.

#4 USA AND UK Want's to make another world WAR. they are just killing muslim's and also other religion's people. they think the world is fool and never stand up against them. but they think wrong when some attacks on the heart's of the people, innocent people's and when the never borther it when they cry and stands up against striker.
same situation created by usa and uk at the shoulder of israil. but they never know that people's of all over the world are against their policies.

#5 Lieberman is behind in the Demo primary. Wouldn't it be a hoot if he lost and ran as a Republican?

#6 thanks Mukhtar. Unfortunately, Google's translation is equally incoherent. Try again?

#7 Both sides are predicting victory.

I predict a few seats swinging, but the status quo stays in effect.

Rinse, repeat until 08.

#8 Mukhtar, if the US (or for that matter, the UK) wanted to start a 'World' War, we would (it would not be global, but for the people involved in it, it might as well be). It would be over very quickly and a huge number of people would be dead. The vast majority of them would be in countries other than the US/UK.

The policies being undertaken at the moment are very expensive, and are seen as a way of dragging the Islamic world into the 21st century. This is something that must be done if Islam is to survive the next 50 years - it is too easy to get WMD now, and the rationality the Islamic world shows is not encouraging.

Instead of bleating about the muslims that are being killed, you should be finding out about what options the West has (hint; conversion/submission is not one of them) and you'll come to the same conclusion many others have: time is running out for the Islamic world to get its house in order.

#9 Well Mukhtar, if only you could learn to think independently and adhere to facts and be productive -- along with all your Moslem co-cultists -- maybe you'd give up your jihad and join humanity in the pursuit of happiness.

Until then, keep changing the conversation and keep blaming the Jews, the USA, the UK, and everybody else for your perpetual state of self-inflicted confusion, illiteracy, poverty, and seething. Not a pretty sight and what a waste of a human life.

#10 Mukhtar:

USA AND UK Want's to make another world WAR.

No. I'd prefer to go back to wondering about whether Britney Spears is going to sing again after having two kids.

they are just killing muslim's and also other religion's people.

Mostly extremist muslims who are actively trying to kill us. It's only fair. Don't forget who started this. Hopefully the truly moderate muslims won't suffer at all. If you were to step inside my mind you'd find that it hurts me, too.

they think the world is fool and never stand up against them.

Is that the crap your mullahs are brainwashing you with? Why don't you sit down and look at the situation from my point of view. Imagine if the US sneaked some forces in to bomb whatever you think is the same as the World Trade Center. How would you feel? What would the muslim world do? You're not surprised are you? By the way, we don't want to wipe every muslim off the planet like you're probably thinking is our logical conclusion. We just want the extremists to go away.

but they think wrong when some attacks on the heart's of the people, innocent people's and when the never borther it when they cry and stands up against striker.

It seems you don't care about the innocent civilians who were killed in 9/11 and other operations around the world. Was it because they are not muslim? Is it because you have decided to believe the stupid idea that they are somehow military? Is that what you think? Do you think I think the same way about muslims because you can't imagine another way? Think about this. It's called "projection", where you assume everyone else thinks like you.

The extremists are hiding behind civilians and sometimes those civilans going to get killed in the crossfire. What's so hard? Extremists sometimes do it knowing the civilians are going to be killed! Are we supposed to give up every time they hide behind civilians? That's stupid! Extremists attack civilians directly, with intent to harm. If you have a better idea that efficiently gets rid of the extremists without killing civilians, please post it here and it will be forwarded to the military. I know they would love such an idea. Bottom line: We have to defend ourselves right now, not later.

And our military never hides behind civilians, and extremists hide behind civilians all the time. If you know how to think, that should give you huge problems.

same situation created by usa and uk at the shoulder of israil.

That was caused by Iran, Syria, and the Hezb'Allah, and enabled by a gullible international community. Israel has no choice but to destroy them. Again, Hezb'Allah is hiding behind civilians, and civilians are dying. The Lebanese government could help Israel, but they are siding with terrorists. Israel said it wants the Lebanese government to be in charge, and they mean it. It's a good thing, not a bad thing as your mullahs will tell you. Do you see an option for Israel? What if Israel attacked Lebanon the way Hezb'Allah attacked Israel? With many rockets and kidnapping soldiers and civilians and killing civilians? How would you feel then? Think about it yourself, don't ask your mullah. You'll probably find he mixes lots of hate into his answer until you can't think right then he puts the idea into you that all the crap the extremists are doing is OK somehow. Mixing in hate can come in the form of just mentioning the word "Jews" and off you go. It's easy for them to control your thinking because they put these bombs all through your psychology.

but they never know that people's of all over the world are against their policies.

Mostly extremist muslims and those who believe their mullahs that we are going to wipe every muslim off the planet. Bull$hit. The mullahs are just trying to become more powerful. They either honestly think it is a good thing, or they just want more power.

I'll take what's behind Door #2, gorb.

#12 The mullahs think more power in their own hands is a good thing, in the pursuit of slavery for all of mankind. Mukhtar and his co-cultists are their willing tools.

Returning to the actual topic: Republicans had better win, not just predict victory. A Democrat majority at this stage would be utter disaster, leading the world to nuclear war within less than two years (if it doesn't happen on the 22nd already).

#13 Dammit Mukhtar I said the Cola Slurpee, and what's that growing on your forehead?

#15 Think about it yourself, don't ask your mullah.

That is part of the problem in a nutshell. They are'nt allowed to think. Islam means 'Submit'. Don't think, don't question, don't understand, just DO AS I SAY.

LOL!

Personally, I think there is a balance between those who actually believe all the $hit they are spouting and those who are just taking advantage of it for power. And some who have a foot in both graves. I also wonder what the balance of motivation is the higher up the food chain you go. It's easy to poke fun at this subject, but I think it's an important one.
