Seeing Texas does not want to discuss my views on the USA constitution I will reply to DR Who. You views thatThe constitution does not contain a clause authorizing the gov to send men into space so that we can all benefit through advances in science (or just beating the Ruskies) any more than it contains a clause authorizing giving Indians bibles so that we can all get along better. seems to be sensible. No written document can be used to justify all future actions of a government.To me it means that the dems are very afraid of the muslims. meanwhile the pubs were afraid enough to give us silly reasons to have a war with afghan. The take away is that all of our leaders no matter what side they are on are afraid. Its not like muslims don't represent about 20% of the worlds population and any honest reading of the Koran and appraisal of their actions should lead us to believe that they would be very happy with our destruction.
However I am surprised by your statement that a honest reading of the Koran and appraisal of their actions should lead us to believe that they would be very happy with our destruction. I find no such evidence in the Quran although some Muslims actions do indicate they would be happy with our destruction. I do not find this with most Muslims. Even it is true what are we going to do about this. If Afghanistan was wrong what war would you suggest?
