Luke!! I am so glad to see you back... where have you been? www.australianchristian.com I am guessing.. :)
I am also against abortion of course, but I will always leave that open for only a very young rape victim (if of course she chooses it)..there was a recent rape victim that was 10 and had a healthy child, so it happens, but I still say if it(any abortion ) happens it is still murder.
Rapist need to be immediately castrated.... without anesthesia..

Question is will his loyal servants still love him in 4 years? Or will they grow weary of everything being blamed on Bush? Reply...
Yes and did you hear it sounds like the great one is backing out of another campaign promise that he said Bush was wrong for doing which is closing down guantanamo bay now he is thinking that we need to keep it open........
But on the campaign trail he was saying that he would close it down if he got elected.
The first of many empty promises from the savior his promises are like his suits both empty.... Reply...
Huh?- They will not whine. They will just keep saying it is Bush's fault for the next 4 years until Biden gets his butt handed to him by Palin. Like I already said, Obama will not give the taxcuts promised, not bring the troops home as promised, and not really make the change he promised either. Look at who he is choosing for his cabinet lifelong Washington insiders, oh boy that is some real change huh? Reply...

I'm not a conservative, and not a North Dakota native, but I will try and answer your question from the way I see things since I have moved to North Dakota.
North Dakota is an agricultural state, and has been for the past 100 years. That has been the predominant industry in this state. Not many factories or manufacturing jobs here. Now it seems that the family farms that have been the backbone of this state are disappearing as the big corporate sized farms are emerging and putting the small family farms out of business. Farm machinery is now made for farming thousands of acres of land. Farming is still the biggest industry in the state, but there are far less people needed to do it. So most of the kids that grow up out here, even if they grow up on a farm, will not be going into farming, themselves.
I have noticed that a large percentage of North Dakota kids go on to college, which is really admireable. But then they have to move on to other states in order to get a good job. As for the kids that don't go on to college, there isn't much here in the way of general labor or manufacturing jobs for them. And it's pretty hard to make a descent living working at Walmart or fast food restaurants. And that's about all there is for them.
So I guess until North Dakota can get some other kinds of industry out here besides farming, I think the kids will have to end up going elsewhere. The oil industy is producing a lot of good paying jobs for the time being, but these jobs probably won't be the long term answer. Reply...
There is nothing that can be done. People will enjoy their freedom of movement and go or stay, depending on their individual ambitions and aspirations. I would never try to make anyone stay here. Everyone needs to make their own decisions. Many leave and only return for weddings, funerals and reunions. Others leave and then return to stay. Some will stay and never leave. I think the fastest way to get someone to leave anywhere is to try to make them stay. Reply...

GT, you are an idiot. Demand a recount. The first poll numbers that were coming in were from itty bitty towns in ND. YOu can't demand a recount when someone landslides the way Pomeroy did on Sand. I"m not a Pomeroy supporter, but the GOP needs to actually put up a candidate that stands a chance. Reply...
