I have a couple of questions to ask all of you:

When do you think that we will officially end the war in Iraq? Also, do you guys think that we have an idea where Osama Bin Laden is but we just dont want to find him? Finally, do you think that the soldier who finds Osama will blow his head off?

Difficult question. I think it will take at least 3 years for Iraq to be fully emptied of other nations soldiers. As for Osama (if he is still alive), i think the government would want to take him alive if possible for interrogation. But i think even they know he will never talk, or will try kill himself before being captured. Whatever the outcome is, it will set off hatred between the west and east and will result in bombings again. So from that the "war on terror" will resume and we are back to hunting the next person in charge.

Sad thing is there isn't really a 08' candidate that can promise a quicker evacuation.

When do you think that we will officially end the war in Iraq?

Answer) We wont end the war in Iraq, especially with McCain. McCain wants us to stay there for "100 years if we have to". However if Obama or Hillary get it, it all depends on if they stay true to their words. Obama wants a 2 second pull out, he wants to just uproot and leave that place, which will not work because they will think that they have won and they will continue to terrorize the world. Hillary cant make up her mind on when/how she wants to leave, but she does want to leave that country.

Also, do you guys think that we have an idea where Osama Bin Laden is but we just dont want to find him?

Answer) Yes, we have found him and Yes, we could kill him. But, if you think about it, what would we gain from killing him? Or better yet, was would good ol' George Dubyah gain from it? Nothing, we would expect him to pull us out of there right after that because that is the reason why we went over there in the first place. To find and kill both him and Saddam. We have 1 out of 2. Osama is in the mountainside of Jordan, its been known for years. We cannot cross into Jordan until they let us, and they wont let us.

Finally, do you think that the soldier who finds Osama will blow his head off?

Answer) Not sure, it all depends on which MARINE finds him. A Soldier of the ARMY will not be the one to find him because the MARINE will end up finding him first.

I am in the Air Force and to be honest, I want to be out of there. I am a Hardcore Republican but as Mitt Romney and Ron Paul both dropped out of the race, I cannot support McCain unless he changes his "If you are an illegal immigrant and you are here, you are now a citizen!" bulls***. I want to send all of them back to wherever the hell that they came from. I am half mexican, my father is from Mexico but he came over here the right way, applied for citizenship and pays his taxes. I am an American.

Did you post this for any other reason than to get credits so that you do not have to purchase them? Or do you have something backing your claim to "2-3 years"?

what do you guys think will be our new energy source? Brazil is using 70% renewable sugar alcohol in their fuel sources and have been for some time.

Our gasoline will be over 6 dollars per gallon next year. We have been past global peak oil since 2006

hydrogen. nothing is more common than water, and one day everything will be hydrogen powered. its a bold claim, but when you look at the facts: the earth is how much land vs. how much water?

It's not the way of the future in my personal opinion. 90% of a field that is harvested is refined into sugar, the other crap left over is distilled with yeast to produce ethanol (alcohol) to create the fuel. I dont know, but i guess they can refine it into fuel on a larger proportion or GM the crops to create vaster fields to fuel more cars.

It's a step forward, but it will still take a long time before most countries switch, or the oil finally runs out.

It will never end unfortunately. The political tension there is way too much bigger now than ever.

It's a pitty really.
