I've heard the whole Diebold argument, and I highly doubt that anything was tampered with. It was a conceptual electronic voting machine, and there may have been a malfunction. Or, it may have been a legitimate election. You can't rule out that possibility.

I won't touch this one, I'm trying to be on my best behavior for a little while... but I must say, I disagree.

Most of the provisions under this act don't apply to us, and probably aren't as threatening to our civil liberties as many far-left loons will tell you. Unless you're a terrorist or in cahoots with a terrorist, that is... then you might have something to worry about. And you've got your habeas corpus... when was the last time a black helicopter swooped down in the middle of the night, and dragged you away to Guantanamo?

Care to elaborate? Last I checked, prerequisites were met both nationally and internationally that allowed for the invasion. It was a completely legal invasion, at least in my opinion, just not a popular one.

I also own stock in a few companies and am sitting on several other investments. I've seen a few of them stagnate and even fall, but they're just a small percentage. I have others that are doing well. Making smart, low-risk investments ensure that if the market (or even the economy) takes a tumble... you won't be hung out to dry.
