There are paralles between the Prophet Eiljah and Jesus both raised the dead and made food mulitplied. Eijljah with flour and oil and Jesus with bread and fish.

THE GREATEST STORY EVER REHASHED! Just take a look at the bible itself. You could take the story of the birth of Moses and the story of the birth of Jesus. Both were predicted by a new star to deliver the choosen to freedom. Moses freedom from bondage and Jesus the freedom of original sin. Both survive first born killings from the King or Pharoh that feared their prophetized influence.

With that veto Bush when from Nixon evil to Cartoon evil. In the TV show The Simpson he be the evil Homer greedy boss Mr. Burns.

Davinci the front runners don't want to alienate the independant voters so they'll try their best to not give a clear answer to how to handle Bush's mistaken war. That is fact is there are many Americans with much disatifaction with how the war was managed by Bush corp. But those same American are still looking for for the next President to savage some sort of reprive for the efforts of our fight men, and lives lost on both by US military and Iraqi allies fighting for change. What I'm saying is the next President will be the one to deliver the promise of hope. The thing is that person has to be elected first and they need all the votes they can get.

I agree kidatheart, a person is worth the amount of good character a person has within themselves.

The more to a carreer than $$$ signs. The most important thing about a carreer is the personal satisfaction the job gives you in your life.

Personally there are only 4 out of the ten that I would like doing.

So basicially what your saying the government raises the youth. So you want to militarize the nation and order people how to think? Sound a lot like communism. Ever read Animal Farm where the for the good of the Farm puppies are taken from thier mom and train to be vicious attack dogs?
I have a feeling you were in the military and learn to become responsible that way. But forcing ideas, even though beneficial, down someones throat another way of suppressing new ideas and controlling thought.

Here's a clip of Bush covering his own @ss!

Garden do you support children or do are you in the bed with Bush?

The United State is comdemming illegals aliens but of course secretly we look the other way because we need them as cheap labor. The sad thing is that companies hire illegals as labor because then they won't have to pay for health insurance.

Forge the only crimial here is Bush who vowed to deny signing of a bill which would help 4 million children.

Because I care for people not for money X.
If you look original post of the nations that provide national healthcare, France, Germany, and (for God's sake) even Canada take care of their own. This not communist thing here it just the nation taking care of their own workforce.

Sir then why are you so against people have healthcare. There are 47 million American off without healthcare coverage. Other industrial nations have all of their citizens and if you look at my orignal post there is a growing trend that companies are increasing the premiums at 2x times national inflation rate. Even your small company will feel the pinch. They'll have to increase your premiums until your off of healthcare like your fellow 47 million Americans.

forge it only costly to people who smoke, the tax is on cigerettes remeber. But Bush doesn't care about the smoking taxpayer but instead of the tobacco companies who would lose money on selling cancer sticks to people.

Now defend big tobacco Mr. Forge and how they raise the cost of healthcare due to lung cancer, asthma, and other health risk associated with tobacco.

Spider that last post of your should be in the religion section of this site.

Look my friend no one cares if you don't put special attention to poor children who have no health insurance. Even if you say you love children and what the best of cared for them but would rather you are against an expansion of health insurance for those poor 4 million ininsured children then you sir are a hypocrit.

Phil what ever the hell you're working on for "advances in medical science" I would bet it is not a cure for anything. The sad truth is the is no money in a cure. If people had a cure and there was no disease then there is no profit for Big Corporation.

But say you instead develop medications that only treat the disease then you and your BIG CORPORATE friends can have a life long customer who would have no choice to pay exorbirant prices for your supposed "advance in medical science."

Phil you don't care about people only money!

You work in medical science? I see you're in the pocket of Big Corporation who only look for high profit margins. No wonder you don't care for medical care for everyone. Your looking to hold the bag of cash in you hand and let everyone else struggle for your "advances in medical science."

Interview: A Nuclear 'Litmus Test'

Guarded Optimism: ElBaradei in Vienna

By Christopher ****ey
Newsweek
Oct. 1, 2007 issue - As rumors of war gather around Iran, the United Nations' International Atomic Energy Agency and its director general, Mohamed ElBaradei, are determined to head off any rash action. Last month ElBaradei announced a "work plan" with Iran to resolve outstanding questions about parts of its nuclear program that Tehran had kept hidden for almost 20 years. Yet Iran, claiming its intent is peaceful, continues to enrich uranium and master technology that could eventually produce the raw material for atomic bombs. ElBaradei spoke to NEWSWEEK's Christopher ****ey. Excerpts:

****EY: The Israeli airstrike on Syria may have targeted a nuclear facility supplied by North Korea. What do you have on that?
ELBARADEI: We have zilch on that. We would be happy to investigate it if anybody has any information that is nuclear related, but today we have nothing.

Is the speculation about impending military action against Iran hurting or helping efforts at a negotiated settlement?
We still have issues that we need to clarify in Iran. But I don't see Iran, today, to be a clear and present danger. And our conclusion here is supported by every intelligence assessment I've seen that even if Iran has ambitions to develop nuclear weapons [which it denies], it's still three to eight years away from that. We need to continue to do robust verification. But we do not need to hype the issue. What we need right now is to encourage the moderates in Iran.

Earlier this month French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner raised the possibility of war as a last resort if negotiations fail.
I am very happy to see that Foreign Minister Kouchner now says he is for dialogue and he is supporting our work plan.

When the plan was announced, critics said it could undermine the Security Council's efforts to pressure the Tehran government.
There was a lot of commotion and misunderstanding about this plan. It's a litmus test for Iran. In two or three months we'll know if Iran is serious about coming clean. If they do, that obviously will create better conditions for negotiations. If they [don't], then of course we will be in a different ball game altogether.

Yet the Iranians refuse to suspend their efforts to enrich uranium, despite U.N. Security Council pressure.
We never said that this plan is the be-all and end-all. Iran did not want to suspend. This is obviously a matter between Iran and the Security Council.

Why do they need three more months? If they want to come clean, let them come clean.
What option do we have other than to continue? As long as Iran is ready to cooperate, well, I have to accept yes for an answer. Unless we get the parties to the negotiating table we will never find a durable solution. You can delay a program [with military action], you can disrupt a program, but if you really want a comprehensive solution it has to be negotiated.

What if in three months Iran hasn't delivered? If this diplomacy isn't backed by a credible threat of force, the Iranians can stall and keep enriching and eventually they will have the material that could go into a bomb.
If Iran were to prove that it was using this period for delaying tactics and it was not really acting in good faith, then, obviously, nobody—nobody—will come to its support when people call for more sanctions or for punitive measures. That is a point that has been made very clear to them by everybody, including myself. If we come [back] with a negative report after three months, I don't see that anybody will come and say, well, give them another chance.
