I've seen the argument raised on this site that the odds of my being picked up and sent to Guantanimo are extremely slim so I shouldn't worry about it. It's the price we have to pay for security. My question isn't so much about what my odds, or yours, or any individual's are of being "disappeared". My question is: Should any one person have the power to randomly take anyone else away for any reason or no reason with no accountability or oversight. If Bush wanted to take you away (even if the odds are a billion to one) what could stop him? Does this not bother you?

she "conviently" forgets to do them. So her father and i end up doing them. i know kids don't look at chores as their all time favorite pass time, but we are trying to teach her to be a responsible child who will grow into a responsible adult. We dont believe in giving her an allowance....but i think she needs some sort of incentive to keep doing them on a regular basis.

I know that you are to give bread, wine, salt, rice to the owner when you visit a new home for the first time, but I can't find the saying that goes with it.

I live in a huge apartment building. I noticed a lot of dog poo in the grass outside and have stepped on it a couple of times. I unknowingly tracked it into my apartment one day where my toddler walks! I was so angry, I posted a sign that says, "Clean up after your dog!!" A couple of days later, someone took it down and wrote on the other side, "No f-ing dog in this rent!" and then reposted it. What does that even mean? I just put it back the way I had it, but fear that they are now going to mess with me even more. Do you think I am dealing with 2 sepearate issues here? (The person who changed my sign might not even own a dog) How would you deal with both? I live in Chicago. Isn't there a law against this?

I listen to him everyday. In my opinion, he's finally lost it. He's attempting to sell us on the idea that we have to vote for Republicans, or else Nancy Pelosi will be Speaker of the House. Sorry, but I don't like the 'fear card' he's playing. To me, he's dishonest and disingenuous. Nice try Hannity, but I'm not buying it, and neither are other Republicans who are quite capable of seeing through all the BS, and are able to think for themselves. Go sell your message to someone else.

I wish that I could take back everything I have done.

I broke up with a girl when I was 15, and I still have feeling for her. We have been best friends ever since. I want her back but she keeps saying "One Call, That's All."I'll do anything to be back with her.

Do you think that I have a problem? What should I do, leave her alone, or keep trying?

Scholars vary on when they believe and who the believe wrote the Old Testament...but it's widely accepted that the Old Testament was not written until several hundred years after the fact...especially re: Abraham, Moses, Noah and ect....considering these are supposed to be the word of God....why were they not written sooner? and considering that Oral tradition was commonly used...isn't it safe to assume then that these "stories" could have been altered or changed accordingly over time?
