SAM that was an excellent post and I agree with all you said. But look at what all the candidates are saying about global warming. Cutting by 80% by 2050.... This is too late. It has to be tackled now.... This suicide thing is another problem we seem to want to sweep under the rug.. It will be seen as negative propaganda against the war... But it's a fact and I think it is more important to find out why. Besides the suicide rate there is the murders of wives that is not brought to the public view. This war has damaged more people and more lives than we ever will know. I am for Ron Paul.. Bring all the troops home from all our bases and defend out own borders.. Take care of our own here.. Let other Nations do what they will.. He is losing.. So I am in the wrong camp again.. Hmmmm..

Sam; biggest one of all, which few people are even bothering to talk about either on the campaign trail or in the press, and that is climate change Well at least McCain believes in GW and wants to do something about it. The debate last night produced very heated exchange between McCain and Romney about whether or not Romney had called for a "date of pullout in Iraq". It was sick as Mccain continued to lie about what Romney had said. They went back and forth endlessly until thankfully they moved the question to Paul. Paul said this bickering between the two candidates who had essentially the same position on Iraq was "crazy". Paul's comment were wonderfully refreshing as he still is the only candidate that see's the trouble our debt situation has created. I know, I know, he's not going to be president - but he has refreshing understanding and honesty that I will miss. steve
