Rush Limbaugh: "I Hope Obama Fails!"

anniepa @anniepa (27955) • United States 21 Jan 09

This is NOT a case of being "taken out of context" by the hated "liberal media"; these are his words and he's actually proud of them. http://www.republicansforobama.org/?q=node/5263 Here are his exact words; he said...

vjayrao06 Hi, aniepa,your indignation can be understood. Limbaugh is perturbed at the thought that Obama may undo some of what his (Obama's) predecessor has done.'The Congress swiftly cleared hundreds of billions of dollars for banks and insurance giants in the...

How you get your discussions?

teka44 @teka44 (3420) • Brazil 23 Jan 09

What I mean is how you get the topics to your discussions. It is something you have seen or heard? or something that happen with you or your friends? or only something you have imagined? for me, most of the time is something I...

Do you read newspaper?

cocooreo @cocooreo (705) • Malaysia 14 Jan 09

Gaza, Darfur, Iraq, Afghanistan The World is Falling Apart

vmenard @vmenard (895) • United States 12 Jan 09

The timeless battles in the Gaza Strip, the mass killings in Darfur and the ongoing fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan is devistating. It's as if the world fell and broke into pieces and no one can afford the band aids to put Humpty...

vjayrao06 Don't you see a common thread between the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Gaza?Better see and note the roll of your Govt. in all these.It is worthwhile. It is not desirable to be so aloof and detached.

Do people get your age right?

chance2691 @chance2691 (566) • Philippines 10 Jan 09

This time around, my question doesn't make any sense, but I mean it when I ask it. Sometimes I find it part-annnoying, part-flattering that people rarely get my age right. I laugh at it much. Back when I was fifteen, I went...

vjayrao06 Yes, I too have such experience.I dont know if my appearance is deceiptive. But I find few people who guessed my age correctly.my hair is part white and part grey now.I am to be counted as a senior citizen.Most of them are not accurate.Or, are the...

Question about the strike on Gaza

murderistic @murderistic (2278) • United States 4 Jan 09

I pointed this out in another topic but I thought it would make for a good discussion. Can someone explain to me how exactly they think that this clearly disproportionate war on a country led by a group that has been labeled a...

vjayrao06 Many of the participants in this discussion overlook a very pertinent fact and that is Israel has repeatedly ignored and literally violated the resolutions of the U.N.. This can never be condoned. And Israel dares to do this because it has the unbridled...

vjayrao06 Hi, Cynthiann! I am really perturbed to learn that such heartless people are there in the shape of your boss.It is a shame. I think the only reason he wants to get rid of you is that he can get an alternative hand at less wages and you don't have much to stop...

vjayrao06 Your question is thought provoking.Many thoughts come to my mind. First, does it depend on my wish? No. From that point of view,the question is frivolous. Yet, I would ventilate a few ideas.A man wants to live if he is happy, if he does not have much of a...
