yes, I will explain human rights to you now sm
Barack Obama has announced that he will close Guantanamo. Throughout the world, this announcement will be understood as an introduction to a new kind of American leadership, a repudiation of the unilateralism of the Bush administration, and a return to diplomacy and the rule of law.
Closing Guantanamo will be a complicated process, which must be accomplished in phases. But the first step clearly is the settlement of the 50 or 60 detainees who have been cleared for release but have nowhere to go. These men have been called the “Guantanamo refugees.” Some of these men are stateless, but most of them simply can’t be returned to their home countries because their lives would be in danger there.
A number of European countries have recently indicated a willingness to take in some of the Guantanamo refugees. But the U.S. must also take some of them.
A group of 17 ethnic Uyghurs from western China have been at Guantanamo almost since its opening. From very early on, they were known to be innocent. In September 2008, a federal court officially cleared them of “enemy combatant” status. In October, Federal Court Judge Ricardo Urbina ordered them released into the U.S, where Uyghur-American families were waiting to take them in. Justice Department lawyers obtained a stay pending appeal to the Court of Appeals. The appeal was briefed and argued in late November. The Government argued that only the President has the power to order the transfer of detainees and their release into the U.S. The appeal has not yet been decided by the Court. As President, Obama should either dismiss the appeal and comply with Judge Urbina’s order or exercise his power as President to bring the Uyghurs to the U.S.
Human rights is getting way twisted
I go by the Bible and a much higher authority.
Terrorists...human rights...sm
I don't think the terrorists were too worried about the human rights of the 9-11 victims.
It's a little thing called human rights!
What makes you think Americans deserve more rights than human beings from other countries? The phrase all men are created equal applies to the entire human race not just Americans.
Switzerland is nice and backward, try there? How can you be afraid of human rights?

Human rights is an issue for you and your children... wake up and open your mind

Exactly right, we all deserve human rights, ALL OF GOD'S CHILDREN, MUSLIM, WHITE, RACIST, REPUB,

I would stake my life on it...
They do not want Palin to answer any questions, just want to somehow sneak her into the WH. You don't have to believe me but mark my words if that is not what happens. Somehow, some way, they will not have the VP debate.
No, it's his riches are stake!
Rev Arnold Conrad for McCain: God's reputation is at stake

Yes, for now those VRs need human
editors but they are getting better every day and with the government pushing for full speed ahead it shouldn't take long. I expect in the not too distant future "see alice" won't be an issue as new drugs will simply be entered into the software. I'm not a computer geek so I don't know HOW they will do it but do it they WILL.
Far be it from me to try to convince those MTs who think they are indispensable that it isn't so.
And I'm just the opposite....
McCain picking Palin has just reassured me that I picked the right man. LOL!
As for the abortion....we all have to agree to disagree because if we spent all our time discussing murder versus choice......we would get nothing else done. LOL!
Oh, just the opposite!
I am happy she can think for herself. That is of course except for when she is under the spell of O.
I see the opposite
When the democrats don't want to face the truth they attack the republicans. Call them nasty names, tell them their delusional. They create a "race" election when the republicans are well past that. When they try and bring up about Obama being born in Kenya they are attacked something awful. They bring up valid issues and get labeled "ugly racist" and just horrible attacks on them. If McCain wins the democrats sure are going to have a hard time handling it.
Just the opposite (nm)
.
Whatever he does...they want the opposite
Notice not too many Obama supporters even come here anymore? There is so much bile and sour grapes here, it is useless to try to reason with most of these people.
Most Obama supporters have left the board and now the Pubs and Obama bashers have no one left to fight with but each other.
So boring...
Why should any human being have the right to decide...
whether another is allowed to live? You honestly don't find a problem with that? What will your thought be when they decide that when people are not useful to society anymore they just be euthanized? It's legal in Holland; you can have grandpa put down. Don't think it can't happen here...because when you start to devalue human life, no matter what level that is on...you start down a very slippery slope.
You keep saying the government meddle in a woman's life...what about the baby? What about that life, who can't speak for itself, can't defend itself, can't run? Picture someone chasing a toddler around a room that the toddler can't escape from, slicing pieces off until its dead? That is somehow more palatable because it hasn't been born yet?? Sorry, Amanda...to ME that is the underlying question here. The VICTIM in all this is the CHILD.
Is Obama really human?????!!!!!
I read a blog that said he was sent here by aliens!!!!!!

you are a warped human being. It is
people who had rather kill their unborn children than give them to STRANGERS that are bringing the prophecies to pass. Yes, there are many *points of view,* but no ifs, ands or buts, there is only ONE way to eternal life and that is the only thing worth owning stock in.
You have my support, Human........
Sh*t happens, whether we like it or not. I'm in the same boat you are. We still have 2 houses, still making the mortgage payments but our ability to do that for how long is in question......fortunately, we didn't buy what we couldn't afford and my kids pay the mortgage on the 2nd house. I don't know what is going to happen to me because we have no healthcare coverage right now (waiting for income tax return to pay COBRA) and my cancer has not been treated since October.......I guess we will see what happens...good luck to you!
You have it the opposite, Francie
nm
Nope. Quite the opposite.
I am independent, but have seen just the opposite
nm
Quite opposite, Palin already does that with FOX but sm
Obama has even been subjected to evil Oreilly and has been interviewed by various people but no PALIN, she ran with her tail between her legs to Hannity, Hannity and more Hannity and a little Rush Limbaugh. THAT is the truth.
LOL - if they married someone of opposite sex
They woundn't be gay then. HA HA HA
I have had one and have an opposite view
I had one when I was around 18 which now is almost 50 years ago and do not dwell on it now nor did I in the past. My body, did what I had to do because years ago you did not bring home a baby and be unwed, never. If you were pregnant, most of the time people sent to what they called unwed mother homes to have the baby and then the baby be adopted out. I had no regrets then and I don’t now.
That's odd Crabbroad because I see it as opposite ..
Opposite to what you say. I see the Obama naysayers as being very negative. This is my first time looking at the board. Was advised by one of my emps and I'm sorry everyone is not behind our new president.
Quite the opposite. I am glad
I feel sorry for our country.
I feel the opposite way
I always say looks mean nothing. There are some not so nice looking on the outside but are gems and are wonderful people on the inside. Then there are those who are amazingly beautiful on the outside but downright "dark" on the inside.
There are pictures of Michelle that show she is stunning, and then I've seen pictures that all I can say is I would not want to cross her path. But don't we all have those pictures. I sure do (that's why I cut them all up. HA HA) But I feel the opposite. I don't think Obama is so much more handsome. He's okay looking, but there are photos of him, that the look on his face just really makes the hair on my neck stand up and...well, lets just not go there.
It's like you say...how a person looks is in the eye of the beholder. It's what they do on the inside that makes them a good person or not. And we certainly will not even go down that path.
Neocon human shield
You are the one who is so PRO WAR, why dont you become a human shield and go to Iraq and help the unfortunate people we have destroyed and stop spouting your hate and baloney here. Im anti war, 100% and anti Bush for sure..I hope Bush rots in hell along with his family because they could have talked some sense into him. They all should go to Iraq if they believe so much in the *noble mission*..Oh, wait a minute, what is the mission? WMD?, Nah, liberating Iraq and creating a Demcracy, nah, never gonna happen.
Hear about the sorry excuse for a human
He carved a "B" in her forehead with a knife after seeing she had a McCain sticker on her car. This was after he attacked her a few seconds earlier.
Only talking to those who care for human

As opposed to a living human being
raped, murdered, beaten,and tortured. I'm sorry, I find that much more atrocious.
No he is not perfection, no human is. In the current...sm
climate, no, he probably will not be able to accomplish everything, but his is going to try to do his best, and I think that the people who elected him realize that.
No, because it's still not equal. Human beings should
nm
No, it's not a human right.....contrary to your beliefs
marriage is supposed to be a gift from God for those that actually understand what that means in the first place. No where in the Bible does it talk about 2 men or 2 women having a relationship as blessed by God, but it sure tells us it is WRONG!
How do you manage to be so screwed up that you don't know the difference between homosexuality and difference in color of skin? Last time I checked, blacks go to school with whites and have for a long time, at least they do in my community.... blacks have every right whites have..... homosexuals have every right we ALL have.
I'm the opposite....Extremely doubtful....
...Obama will win with Biden. Bayh would have been a better choice. Ah well.....
Capitalist? No way! Obama is just the opposite
nm
Wouldn't the opposite of CONgress (sm)
be PROgress? That thing that they just can't make any of?
You're kidding! I see it just the opposite. nm
.
I see it the opposite. You and JTBB, MSNBC,etc
nm
As usual, quite the opposite is true.

I thought it was, but I guess that's why we are on opposite sides of the SM
political sphere. Like I said, different points of view. Definitely!
Feel just the opposite. O scares the crap out of me.nm

Pay attention. Said the exact opposite of what BT implies.

I am hearing the exact opposite about unemployment
I think what you have posted is absolute rubbish, scare tactics once again. I am hearing not just on the local news but national news about the work situation picking up. I think most repubs are literally cringing inside seeing just what a good job Obama is doing. I just heard from my husband yesterday his job has posting on the board his company is buying 2 additional companies which means more employees, heard about a company in the state building new plant that will hire about 600 people. Like I said, rubbish.
I'm gonna have the big one. Human Events quoted on the L board! NM
And luckily millions of others believe in marriage for all human kind
and not just those "select few".
Issues...I don't have issues with people with common sense. The one who know that the Creator loves all people.
I do have issues with people who are blatantly ignorant.
Really? Gosh.......
Then where to all those lesbos and homos get their biological children? Immaculate conception? But Mr. Phelps says God hates us.
Egads
oh my gosh
just take the post about Bob the Builder for what it was--amusing. Calm down. It is okay if everyone doesn't agree with you. In fact, I bet everyone DISagrees with you on something.
Oh....my.....gosh.....sm
And I thought some of the comments on this board get out of hand from time to time.
Well, ladies, I went to Youtube to see Obama's radio/video address today, and I started to read the comments....some Obama supporter (I hesitate to call him a fruitcake or nut job, for fear of retaliation)....but he is a loon....
He called someone else who left an opinion, the "c---" word....oh....my....gosh....I feel kinda dirty right about now....
I do hope that if Obama continues to post his addresses on video on youtube, that they have someone monitor the comments, or close them altogether. That type of response does no one any good, Obama supporter or nonsupporters....
