  • Are you a Muslim?

  • Why did uchannel post a Obama bashing video? Thanks for the ideological crap, can we please get something educational now, or at least with educational content?

    Read some Chomsky, and then read some Thomas Jefferson, and try and tell me about the linear political spectrum.

    Please find Paul Krugman or Uwe Reinhardt, or someone who can see beyond the party lines. Thank you.

  • 10:00--here's another McCain surrogate slinging mud, instead of discussing Obama's record on free trade, he condemns Obama saying Obama would talk to "vile" leaders. Let's use names, let's make things clear. Ahmadinejad. The Swiss met with Ahmadinejad this spring. The solutions we need lie in talks.

    "Doesn't have a record"-- is a smear (NFU 100% voting record McCain 0%; AFL-CIO 95% McCain17%), as is "he's written more books than he's passed significant legislation".

  • Bio Diesel from algae, that sounds interesting. On the downside of oil use, let's not forget the devastation of oil spills. We really have alot of change we have to accomplish..

  • Oil is the problem, any planning of Oil drilling is an extension of the problem. Ban all Oil exploration. Get off of OIL.

    Every dollar spent in importing OIL is stupid.

    We are paying for an item that in less then 4 months after it's bought is burned up with only polluted air and toxic rain water left to show for it .

    Renewable Bio Diesel production from Algae is the fastest way to resolve our transportation fuel problem.

  • Take of the Medicare Cap....make it a flat tax, if you take the cap off, medicare would see immediately funding for current level expenses all the way to 2075.

  • No, this did not start in the housing market.

    It started with bad derivatives that then allowed 100 to 125% loans over the original market values. The Derivatives then allowed higher payments on homes which then feed back into more derivatives ect... and so went the feeding of the beast.

    There is still Trillions of worthless derivatives out there and as soon as the debt ceiling on the US Government Bailout funded interest payments exceed funding, we will have our over due Depression.
