Americans are chronicly mis-informationed and a population who “believes” rather arrives a conclusion through intelligent thought

are we a people with a short attention spans whose heads are stuck in the sand.
i believe you have very little faith in your...

i may be an American with a "short attention span" who's "non logical" brain is "stuck in the sand" while expiriencing "innate xenophobia "

could you explain the follow in headline:

A plan to slash more than $500 billion from future Medicare spending — one of the biggest sources of funding for President Obama’s proposed overhaul of the nation’s health-care system — would sharply reduce benefits for some senior citizens and could jeopardize access to care for millions of...

in addition to the fact that wind power is very expensive it has another major disadvantage. wind power is very unreliable and constantly varies in output- one minute it can be producing max and the next be down to nothing - as determined by the wind. the major disadvantage to this is the fact that our whole electrical infrastructure has been designed to work with very stable and reliable power sources - such as coal and nuclear power plants. highly variable power sources has in cases...

i am glad to see there is finaly leaders that have the courage to speak the truth.
there is no global warming so there is no need to reduce carbon emmissions.

there is no viable...

hello tim
are we a country of LAWS or a country of GNAGSTER THUGS.
after all MUSSOLINI made the trains run on time.
tim do you think your neighbors should be able to get together and come and take your property simply because for some reason they dont like you. do you think the law should protect you from this happening or do you want thugs to take what ever they want.
