right now the marijuana question is down to #30. . .
Maybe they rigged it, it seems to be chastising bush & the bailout money and such.

it seems they're censoring our marijuana questions. The top mj question has 6,600 votes yet is not on the top 10.... They're about to get a very angry email from me.
It's still like that now. We are just going to have to keep getting our people to do their job even without the publicity of being on the front page.
I too emailed them asking why they were filtering questions
I emailed the associated press and norml and asked them why he was doing that

I think it comes down to just wanting to get certain things answered, you can see how those questions blast bush a lot. It's all media inspired.

he's got a lot on his plate, stabilizing the middle east is necessary; pakistan & india are nuclear armed countries on the brink of war... again... for the fourth time. isreal is bombing hamas in gaza, and we are raiding afghanistan after giving back the majority of Iraq to Iraq after 5 year occupancy riddled with death, conspiracies & dishonor. And funny pictures. And lost friends, and brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers. So, if you donate just $0.35 a day to my not-for-profit organization we can battle breast cancer together.
PM me to find out who to paypal.
there will be an enrollment fee of $120.00 + $30.00 processing at the start of distributing funds at the rate of $10.65 a month.

He's better than George Bush. The Republican Party as a whole has spent the last 8 years destroying this country. Electing Obama was the best thing our country could do.
Unfortunately it will take much longer than 4 years to repair what Bush has created. But hopefully we can at least get on a path to rebuilding and stabilizing our economy and financial markets
On some positive news, as t0ad said, it was promising to see the US handing over control to Iraqi security forces in a move that the Iraqi parliament was very excited about. It must be pretty exciting for the Iraqi people as well to start taking back control of their country
half way through the presidency, we had a full democratic house & senate. Now, we have a very largely democratic house, senate and now president. There's nothing stopping Obama from passing bills that he wants to pass, however redundant and expensive they may be.
When Clinton was president, the house and senate were a majority of Republican voters - bush was known never to really use his veto power except for a few times, while Clinton had veto'd many bills. It's not just hte president who is in charge, or is at fault. Let's look at the entirety of it.
Many of your democratic supporters & politicians voted to have the same things that George Bush elected in his bills. Why do you think any of that stuff was made into law? Because the Democrats voted YES in a majority. Dems want to keep the big EYE on you. Cheney wants to keep the big eye on you. Bush was just the middle man; the face, the one the point fingers at.
but the situation with Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Isreal/Gaza are going to be overwhelming for someone who has only had 1 term as a leader (and not a full term) in the senate; Joe Biden will be the ones to make all the military decisions, just like Cheney. He's in the committee of foreign relations, or related to it somehow if I remember correctly.
I agree w/ the who reference --- This country is headed for a police state; we need to end a lot of spying on US citizens. . . . . . .
Not only that, George Bush had also presided over us through the Tech bubble also, and the market recovered. The Democrats are the ones who pushed for lower restrictions on house buying; just as much as republicans. Once again, 2 out of 3 of the law making parts of our country voted in political majority for everything we see today. Do not forget that and don't fall into the traps the media places for you. The president is meaningly just a little more then the nations top general.
he also dealt with the economic disaster that befell Katrina, and the backlash from lack of management on FEMA's side. 9/11 was a very disastrous time for our country, that lead to many of the bills you see enacted today.
Just because now the Dems control the majority in ALL the country, that doesnt mean things will get better, in fact I worry for the worse.
2012 baby, just think about it. lol
