Truth IS relative.
2 + 2 = 4 (in bases 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5);
2 + 2 = 10 (in base 4);
2 + 2 = 11 (in base 3)
2 + 2 is meaningless in base 2.
So truth depends on your frame of reference, hence truth is relative.

Earlier today, I asked a question with regard to what is supposed to happen with regard to the insurgents when the U.S. pulls out of Iraq. Someone who said they were a conservative posted something like, "Don't you read the news? 12 people were kidnapped today."

Why is it that, when liberals bring up facts like this to point out the shortcomings of Bush's war, they're told that they're lying, or empowering the enemy, and yet, when a conservative does it to support his or her point, it's totally okay to mention the kidnappings and murders and death tolls?

Why the double standard, conservatives?

The conservative who answers honestly will be chosen as the best answer. I'm tired of rhetoric. Just be honest. Liberals - I already know that you agree cons are hypocrites. I want to hear from THEM.

My boyfriend and I are going away on vacation in May but by then it would be almost 9 months since we had sex. This is the longest amount of time that both of us lasted without anything (not even forplay). There was a time we did broke up and then got back together but I wanted to build back to where we were but that would also mean no sex until we're on vacation. Before this "dry spell", we would have sex almost all the time.

For anyone who went through months of "dry spells", how did it felt (either for a guy or a girl) when you finally have sex after a long time? Also, do you think it's a good idea that I've been holding off sex for this long? I do feel empowered but I do feel bad for him because he must be having "blue balls".

Earned ---$100.00
Income tax---$25.00
fuel tax---
utilities---
pack of cigs.----$6.00
2 beer---$2.00
all tax included services
property taxes / rent----
dog tags, registration, vet.--
enviroment taxes, fees---
credit cards, interest---
etc.

Depending on how long that bill stays in circulation , I'm estimating3 years, that $100.00 that i earned ended up making the government upwards of tens of thousands of dollars in taxes.

One more bit of FYI:
The Gov. of Canada brought in Income taxes as a way to pay for the war bills. As with the GST, It was indicated ,or assumed, that it would only last till it was paid for. What is that? 2 or 3 generations ago ? The GST was created to pay off the national debt. What? 10 / 20 years? O.K. We owe just as much today as we did then. The solution? Fire all the creative, imaginative accountants. Create an agency to take over the pay downs of thoes 2 debts. Make all government departments work within their pre-approved budgets.

I am not trying to seek any "pain and suffering" damages. Only medical bills. There was a sugar spill in the grocery store. I slipped, sprained my ankle, cut on my knee, and left sciattica nerve damage to the left side of my back. The grocery store has denied any liability or negligence. What should I do? Small claims may get my medical bills paid but I am afraid of even taking it there. They are a big company and I have called around 18 lawyers. None of them want the case. Hard to prove they say. Can anyone give me any advice?

In which Edition/Kind/Norm/Form/Version of Bible Jesus pbuh himself declared that I am your Savior if you are truthfull???
I challenge you, you will never be able to show me any such declaration from Jesus pbuh. If you are unable to show me any verse in which Jesus pbuh Himself said "I am your Saviour" then have a fear of hell-fire which will encompass infidels and culprits like you???

My Father has a book of the Redwines in Georgia. It begins basically in the Dark Ages as this person named Rotwien was a knight of King Arthur and apparently good friends with Lancelot. Then it goes throught the ages and starts telling of how the name changed through the years. Unfortunatel he has misplaced the book and I am curious as to where I came from.

I have a woman who has worked for me for about a year. Often she looks "doped up," her speech is sometimes slurred and her mouth is sometimes twisted. She appears lethargic nearly all of the time. She told me that she takes sleeping pills almost nightly and regularly takes Valiums and some kind of Valium-like liquid that's cheaper than the pills. I wasn't at work to see it but the other day she was sent home by HR in a cab because the night before she had taken 3 Benadryls and when she got to work she could barely function. She's a very sweet, cooperative person and I know she has a lot of problems at home single parenting a loser 19 y.o. son who causes her a lot of grief. She's also single and I don't think she dates or anything. What can I do, if anything? I'm really worried about her.

My goal, my dream and passion is to write screenplays. Not because you can make a lot of money, there are millions of ways to make money, but because I enjoy an adventure, or a good scare. The truth is movies can be magical or emotional, so I want to know what you would like to see on the big screen......You don't have to tell me a full story just an example or idea...
