My cousin just told me that schools are going to try and Ban My All Time Fav. book::::
Blood and Chocolate by Annette Curtis Klause
( but I have yet to see the movie b/c I heard it sucked and ruined the book...)


So, is this true? Was it really on the news?

Perhaps the dogs of war have an agenda to reduce the population?
DId you ever see what an enbanc California case investigates, say versus an Oregon Judges concern with brown owls (Elias t. Howe) ?
Do you know this war is fought both at home and abroad?
Do you think Congress and the McClellans allowed Bush and Secret Service to promote fear? Does privatization of Social Security due to realities of war keep those wealthy enough from moving and assure their retirement?
Do you vote for senators who lobby for special interest groups?
Did they lower the voting age and legitimize drinking and potentially smoking so as to kill or control the population.
Everyone's been there and I don't mean novacation!

Ok, I just want to know that I am not the only one who thinks calling Gen. Petraeus "Gen. Betray-us" is the most insulting and completely ridiculous thing that has ever been said by Americans. It is total disrespect to our own military, and to a man who has given his entire life to keeping the US free and secure. What does this say about Americans? Our own military is not only not supported in their efforts, but now they are being called names and being insulted. It is disgusting, and if you think the Iraq War makes America look bad to the rest of the world, then think how much worse this makes us look, reverting to name-calling and insults to our own armed forces.

Does anyone else feel the way I do about this?

Well the majority of the regulars will know I fall into the catogory of 'pro' McCann not that I agree with child neglect for one miniute! leaving those children alone is something I would have never considered as a parent..but............

I have a few questions and ....im asking these quesions as I don't have a definate anwers to them myself and I'm going to run them by you lot

here goes...........

1. why did the forensics take so long to establish a proper crime scene in the apartment (including cuddle cat)t,Portugal is not a 3rd world country.
2. why wasnt the car impounded if it had such crucial evidence and the flat sealed off completely.
3. If they were guilty why would they court such media attention?
4.What actual facts are there, they keep saying dna, is it blood confirmed in the boot of the car.
As much as you may be anti, is there anyway they could be framed for this?

no abuse im fragile tonight..lol
So much is wrong with this case

I'm not too entirely sure if this is indeed a real song or not, but here are the lyrics
Bonjour monsieur Lundi
Comment ca va Mardi?
Et monsieur Mercredi
Et la famille Jeudi?
Tu lui diras Vendredi,
Que je l'attends Samedi
Pour Passer la journee de Dimanche avec lui
Sur l'air du tralala(bis)
Sur l'air du tra et tralala et tralala

Well actually a French teacher of mine was teaching us a song like this, and for some reason I found it er... intriguing when she sang it. I tried google and all, but can't find an answer. I'd like to know if this is even a real song, and the name of it possibly.

To me Cnn & Fox News are both jokes. Both are biased & both ignore the other point of view. Msnbc i haven't seen enough to judge. BBC is the only news station i pay attention to now when i want news information.

Yahoo has listed the story titled "U.S. woman said imprisoned, abused in W.Va race crime" on its Odd News Page.

http://news.yahoo.com/i/757;_ylt=AsYog95q6Jv_yhsC_yLRAqCs0NUE

Considering that she was held, beaten, and sexually assaulted for a week, calling it Odd News seems wrong. How do I tell them?

OKAY, my initial thoughts were NO, government and religion should stay clear paths,

BUT!!!!!!

With Catholic Schools in Canada, they have already been getting subsiticies for decades.

So is like Canada racist against all other religions or what?

This debate has been a hot issue in Quebec and Ontario.

I THINK SUPPORT THEM ALL or None

luv to hear ur thoughts

Does anyone think that deep down Bin Larden is not really a terrorist but has become a terroist? Viewpoint Bin Larden is just a highly powerful man in this world who wants to see it change. 4 change he is fighting against the world power? It is 2nd knowledge he had links with American / British top powers so he can play with Bush. He has recently called enivornmental changes & did he really advocated terorrism? Was it more advocation of a war against America not an advocation of terrorism Opinions...

To make our world more safer for our kids do you think the govt should pass a law that...every time a child abuser re-offends after castration that they should have a finger amputed (proffessionally..... unfortunately! ) and then we would know when the Govt puts a Re-habilited offender into our neighbourhood that we can take action to keep our kids safe. Because from were im sitting these SCUM! of the earth are not getting the message that our kids are our world and we will take action to protect them

Was I the only one who saw this coming from the start?

It just seemed a little unfair that I was being dismissed as some sort of heartless jerk while everyone else was coughing up to the fund.

All I ever said was it doesn't feel right. It all seems like a sham, while I only pay for what I KNOW is genuine.

Let's see how it pans out. If they are guilty (which apparently is now doubtless), I hope they get plenty of time to reflect on their actions.

Also I'm wondering how everyone else feels now. Are there any McCann supporters left? If there are, you have my respect (you couldn't lose it) and I will gladly be a shoulder to cry on if you get proved wrong.

in West Virginia. She was tortured, beaten and sexually assaulted. Hearing, about what those animals, did to that woman, made me feel sick to my stomach. Where is the justice in what happened to her? How could anyone be so cold and brutal to another human being.
