Tuesday night LIVE!!!

| 17:38 UK time, Tuesday, 13 February 2007

As Paul wrote earlier, today we're asking if it matters if your sporting hero is gay? Do we go over the top with weddings? And if you are in America, what message do you want your representative to send to the White House about Iraq?

Post your comment now.

You can read emails and text messages here, and of course post your own comments as well.

Let's kick off with homosexuality in sport:

Sylvanus, Nigeria
Any one who lets his wedding bankrupt him is a fool. If I saw mine getting out of hand, I change profile immediately.

Mbinkar, Kumbo, Cameroon
The fact that James is disclosing his sexuality at the end of his career means he didn't even have faith in what he was doing. What a shame?

From Dante in Cleveland:
I couldn't DISagree more with my fellow countryman David in Lakeland, FL, who spoke earlier. It's attitudes like his that contribute to the world's disdain of Americans. America is not an infallible nation whose will is ordained by God. My representative to Congress is Dennis Kucinich, and I agree with his plans to start withdrawing troops as soon as reasonably possible without jeopardizing their safety or the safety of the Iraqi people. However, I think there is no good solution at this point. Ultimately, the solution should come from President Bush. He got us into this, and it's his responsibility to get us out--in a way that will minimize the loss of life--for Iraqis as well as US servicemen and women.

From Anonymous:
David doesn't speak for me and I don't believe he speaks for most Americans. Blanket support for any democratic leader, simply by virtue of his leadership position sounds more dictatorial than democratic.

The prospect of Congress submitting a non-binding resolution to this particular President is laughable, at best, particularly when The President is most inclined to "stay the course," or to implement any new 3-word slogan that is synonymous with a continued American occupation in Iraq. David and anyone who agrees with his line of reasoning should take the consideration of the non-binding resolution it for what it is worth: a toothless political statement by elected officials who lack the bravery and integrity to work toward changing the status quo.

Suleiman, Nigeria:
Americans should know that America is liberating the arab nations from dictatorship & tyranny.

Now, expensive weddings:

Jessica, Portland, Oregon, USA:
I got married last year, and paid about $200 for the best wedding I've ever been to! My mother made my dress, we had a little potluck for family and friends beforehand, and were married at the courthouse with two witnesses and my parents... it was so intimate and stress-free. My sister is planning her traditional wedding this year, and everything I've heard about her process makes me so glad that I didn't go that route.

Kate, Atlanta:
Spent $700 on Wedding still happy 16 yrs later.
