to protect the vunerable, those unable to defend themselves
How can any civilised person say that the older person is using up valuable resources!
This was just said on here and that person (not a troll) is obscene!

Does anybody have a reason why the Mccann's may have "killed" Maddie? I don't understand why parents would do such a thing.

Why are there such vicious personal attacks against anyone who questions a seriously flawed official account of the events of 9/11?

It smells like a huge information coverup. Why aren't more Americans demanding a truthful account of the 9/11 events?

A cancer patient says she was left alone in a CT scanner for hours after a technician apparently forget about her, and she finally crawled out of the device, only to find herself locked in the closed clinic.

Elvira Tellez of Tucson said she called her son in a panic, and he told her to call 911.

Pima County sheriff's deputies arriving at the oncology office had her unlock the office door to let them in, said Deputy Dawn Hanke, a department spokeswoman. The deputies contacted the office manager, who was not aware of the situation.

Tellez was taken to a hospital as a precaution, then released early the next day.

Tellez said she's had trouble sleeping since last week's incident. She and her family said they want an explanation from the medical office, Arizona Oncology Associates, but have yet to receive one. She said the technician did call to apologize the next day.
-----
Assuming she will sue, how much would you award her?

He was surprised to see that black people eat like everyone else and don't cuss and swear when they go out to eat. I didn't beleive it untill I heard it myself. Bill said he was taking out of context but, has not aired the full statement in it's full context on his show. He also said blacks are starting to think for themselves. OMG blacks have always been capable of thinking for themselves. Is this because he THINKS conservatives just listen to him and follow what he says without thinking for themselves. I would love for hiom to say that on the air.

Despite it's being rooted in dictatorship, out of sight out of mind might not be a bad idea in a society/culture where sex is so deeply rooted. Banning celebrities pushing drugs on tv isn't a bad idea either. These are all marketing ploys by the pharma companies to get people to get their doctors to push their meds.

Thoughts? How do you think this would fly or impact OUR countries if implemented here?

As a mother of 3 little girls, two under the age of 2 i am scratching my head as to why the FDA are doing this.
Right, now i see it applied only here in the U.S no sure what's happening in England.
U.S. health experts on Friday urged the federal Food and Drug Administration to consider banning the sale of over-the-counter cough and cold medicines for young children.
The products include approximately 800 popular medicines that are sold in the United States under names like Toddler's Dimetapp, Triaminic Infant and Little Colds, The New York Times reported.

Now, i give my 20m/o & 3y/o Tylenol
I give them a touch under the recommended limit when they get their shots, have fevers due to colds, teething and allergies.
So if they remove all cold medicines, isn't this going to cause more harm to a child than not?

This is based on 123 deaths bewtween 1969 and 2006.

Could someone please remind me what point Al Qaeda is trying to get across with all its violence aimed at western nations?
Osama bin Laden most recently said, in a video, that targetting the west with terrorism would stop if everyone converted to Islam.
Then what?
Doesn't Al Qaeda kill Moslems, as well as Christians?

It seems like a waste of money to have to pay an anchor and a co-anchor to sit and read the news from a monitor...Doesn't make sense fiscally to me...It certainly doesn't enhance my daily news experience...

Seven chancellors and presidents of Iranian universities and research centers, in a letter addressed to their counterpart in Colombia University, denounced Lee Bollinger’s insulting words against the Iranian nation and president and invited him to provide responses for 10 questions which you will find here: http://www.commondreams.org/archive/2007/09/26/4124/
I thought they hit the target well. Your comments please.
