At least, here in America, we have the Brits still able to exercise our 1st amendment rights to free speech. Day after day, the Daily Mail investigates and reports on our country.

After reading Rep. Waters comments, my first reaction was that they've tasted rich green blood and are now like zombies on a feeding frenzy.

Obama picked Biden because he is an expert in shooting . . . his mouth off.

One of the most devastating ideas to hit our society has been for women to be devalued under the guise of feminism or equality. A girl who is easily willing to have sex is simply not as respected as one who makes certain that she is loved and cherished for her entire self and not just her lady parts. A girl who then resorts to abortion has to live with the fact that she destroyed a part of herself, a child whose DNA is half hers. See comment I posted at 10:38 for more on this. But society tries to convince her she is in the right, she is just looking at for her future and her own interests. Society even now tells girls it is worse to abandon (put up for a adoption) a baby than to abort. Respect is better earned than demanded.

Thanks for your extremely nice response. I do appreciate it.

nyc, I've never spoken with someone who has had an abortion who didn't feel it diminished their spirit. I think the only women who could honestly say it did not harm them were, and still are, truly devoid of any concept or relationship with their inner self.

Abortion is devastating to the spiritual nature of women. No matter how much society tries to tolerate or accept or promote abortion as the answer to unintended pregnancy, deep down, a would be mother knows it goes against her better nature to terminate the life of her child. Parents are the best people to look out for the interests of their daughters. There is nothing better for the life of a girl than mature, loving parents to help her through the difficult choices she will make as a teenager. When a girl's spiritual self is destroyed, suicide becomes a greater risk.

The term "Faithless Electors" describes those electors who have voted against the wishes of their states. Some states have laws on the books prohibiting this, others do not. Even those states who prohibit it have various untested consequences. I do realize that the chances of this happening are almost nil, but in 1836 Virginia's 23 electors conspired to vote against the VP nominee which threw the election of the VP to the senate where he was elected anyway. For the electors to vote against their state's election would require extraordinary circumstances which I do not think we are even close to. But, technically, it is possible.

Paul Ryan will still be a leader in Congress. I am not sure what Mitt Romney's future holds, but he has too much energy to retire and fade away. I see a strong humanitarian future in store for him. (Unless, of course, this mess blows up so big that the Electoral College decides it is necessary to vote them into office on December 17 when they convene.)

With the departure of General Ham of AFR/COM and Rear Admiral Gaoutte from the mideast recently, I am suspicious about these revelations about Generals Petraeus and Allen. Is there a purge of our top military leaders going on?

I would rather eliminate the sugar subsidy than have Mayor Bloomberg dictate how big my sugary drink can be.
