Well that particular mission was accomplished ---we over threw a dictator and marched down the streets of Bagdad.

And being a democrat mysefl---the reason Bush was reelected was not because of the war----it was because the party failed to put a true leader in the race---I could not support a Person like John Kerry for president---and alot of other democrats could not either---John Kerry almost made me change parties ----he changed positions on issues so many times it was hard to keep up with ----Sorry ---but I support leaders ---and when the party puts up a leader to run ---not just one with the most money to throw in the race---then there will be a true coming together of the party --- We need someone with true values ---who sticks by his position because he truely believes in it ---weather it is popular or not---not just tell each group what he thinks they want to hear.

my thoughts are it is time to clean house in the senate and congress and put in people who will represent us not the big money companies---who are there for the specific reason to be guardians of the people not see how much more money they can squeeze out of us. And I am talking about both parties here, it has become fashionable for the rich to go into politics supposing to represent the people ---if they are rich to begin with why are they voting themselves a raise ---they know what the job pays before they run for office--if it is not enough money --they can do like us normal people do --find another job---that pays more

If you aren't a registered voter, register tomorrow! And make your vote count. If your representative in the government is not acting on "your" behalf then write them letters--senators and representatives. While it is sad that most politicians are owned by big business these days, let them know that when they come up for re-election you will be casting your vote elsewhere unless they start truly representing The People. We aren't "We The People" for nothing!!!

Couldn't agree more. The people who complain the most are usually the ones who don't bother to take the time to vote.

You must not only vote but you should make every effort to become a well informed voter. I have my opinions but I'm not about to help anyone decide who to vote for. That is their responsibility.

Vote for who you believe is the best person to represent you. Party affiliation should have no bearing on your decision unless both candidates are equally qualified. Lately the problem seem to be that both candidates are equally unqualified.
