Civic Science

Have you ever seen any other President of the United States bow from any party to a foriegn leader. NO this is not about a political party. Its about the Office of the President of the United States.

people- a gesture is a gesture, mistake or not, it really is NOT a big deal...unless you make it one!.....

as for wendey she sounds like laft wing liberal dobbs is for the working class man and america i bet she voted for the barack

Has the Republican Party abandoned all use of punctuation and capital letters? It's a slippery slope. Once you abandon logic and reason, grammar is the next to go.

Never worked before? Somebody should let all of the other industrialized nations know that.

jc, they already know that

Our jury system helps determine that. Something has to be done about high rate of juvenile crime, since it seems pro-active parenting seems to be taking a nose dive in some cases. Nothing good has come from removing God.

@David Costin: good one! LOL!

Unemployment is expected to hit 10% soon... I never thought for one minute this administration's plan was going to do anything to help the economy but rather it would cause further harm to the economy - it appears I was correct with my assumption (err - uneducated guess)!

President Obama himself said it would take time to recover from this poor economy. He said things would get worse before they would get better. There will continue to be people who lose there jobs and people who lose their homes, and that is unfortunate. But I believe things are starting to turn around ever so slightly and hopefully we will begin our way back to economic growth.

I'm a philly guy all the way....

As much as I don't like the Yankees, there is nothing worse than a sports team from Philly. Go Steelers.

cracker jacks

Valerie, why are we struggling with this? Governments do healthcare more effectively than private insurers...across the globe. That's not even debatable. Why would you trust a for-profit company more than your own gov't? Private insurance companies have no reason to exist. They offer no value to the health supply chain, except to themselves. ... See MoreYour visceral aversion to gov't may be rooted in ideology more than fact. Good gov't is a normal thing in other countries. People live free, get good health care, go about their lives... no big deal. Is there an unexamined ideological assumption behind your position?

According to whom? England's and Canada's systems are going broke. One of the English Parliament was here and stated exactly that and doesn't want to see us move in this direction.
Also, what gov't run program can you name that operates in the black and is efficient? We are a capitalistic society and so yes, there is some ideological aversion ... ... See MoreRead Moreto this but more than that it is based on the fact that Medicare is going to be bankrupt by 2017, SS will not be able to pay out when I will be eligible, the Postal Service is going broke, Amtrack has been losing money almost since it's inception. Need I continue? We are not a government owned or government run nation. Health insurance and care should be payed for, decided by and run by the private sector.
What countries can you name that have "good gov't'?? that runs everything? Quit drinking the koolaid, Dean or you're going to end up with a country that is very different than the one you've been raised in.
It isn't up to our gov't to save us from every thing that doesn't work right in our lives. Leave it to the people,we usually come up with the answers.
Not to worry though, Dean, I'll keep fighting to maintain our capitalistic society and defend our rights under our Constitution of the United States.

Oh, please! Find something important to pursue--like the bonuses and salaries of executives of bail out companies!

@rita ... or volunteer no salaried, no expense account federal government

As hard and as fast as they can. Duh!!!

That's what she said...
