29. I think you're wrong about the CIA
"better funding for cia and homeland security, secure our nuclear and chemical plants, cia needs 10 times as much money at it's getting now to effectively combat al quada"

I think the Dept of Homeland security should be dissolved. This is what the FBI is for. As for the CIA, I think their funding should be restricted and open to the congress. They have a very nasty history.

If you want to combat "Al Queda" (your CIA at work), changing our foreign policy is the ONLY way to do it.



As to what I'd like to see when Kerry takes office: Break up news media concentration, reinstitute a media "fairness doctrine", cut off corporate campaign contributions, limit terms for senators, tax corporations more, universal health care, eliminate homelessness, destroy the military-industrial-political-foreign war machine.
