Current Events - November 2007

When Savio died, Peterson was freed from child support and alimony. He also inherited more than $1.5 million in various assets. If Stacy Peterson divorced him, she could claim one-half of those assets, as well as child support for their two children and a part of his $72,000 a year pension.

On Sunday, Oct. 28, the day Stacy disappeared, she told Peterson she
was leaving him and issued this ultimatum: She was going to begin
divorce proceedings, and she wanted him out of the house by Wednesday,
according to the source

By threatening to flog a British teacher who allowed her pupils to exercise a right to democracy. If their democratic decision was offensive, shouldn't their parents be the ones flogged for failing to instruct their children? After all, if the children, brought up in the faith, saw no offense, why should a person who was not brought up in the faith? If this woman is convicted, I for one will be lobbying hard to have all aid to Sudan cut immediately and their ambassador sent packing with his tail between his legs. I plan to get a petition started on the Downing Street website if this happens, anyone interested in a link to sign it?

Ya'll read about it? Down there in Galveston her body washed up in a box and her 19 y/o mother and 24 y/o step father have been arrested.
Well, in their statement, it is said they beat her with a leather belt for 4-6 hours, held her head under water and smacked her head of the floor, all the whle, giving her pain reliever.
Why - because this precious 2 y/o didn't say "please" or "yes sir/ma'am"
Now, i have a 2 y/o and a 3 y/o and given they know their manners, as babies, they don't always use them, nor have they said ma'am or sir, i never bat and eyelash! What justifies their actions? Besides being sick. This story has us so outraged and sickened i'm wondering about other's opinions and thoughts - ESPECIALLY since it just came to light, this monster mom is pregnant again!
Now, shouldn't there be a law that abusers should never have kids again? Get tied or something, snipped, hell, death penalty sounds great too!

I have posted four questions in two days about which of George W. Bush's many crimes will eventually lead to his impeachment.

Then I provide just a partial listing of those crimes. Real, live, actual CRIMES that bush has committed during his reign of terror.

Each time the question gets deleted.

I think I'm on to something here!


1) Seizing power to wage wars of aggression in defiance of the U.S. Constitution, the U.N. Charter and the rule of law; carrying out a massive assault on and occupation of Iraq, a country that was not threatening the United States, resulting in the death and maiming of hundereds of thousands of Iraqis, and thousands of U.S. G.I.s.

2) Lying to the people of the U.S., to Congress, and to the U.N., providing false and deceptive rationales for war.

3) Authorizing, ordering and condoning direct attacks on civilians, civilian facilities and locations where civilian casualties were unavoidable.

As what happened today i dont think other countries get affected by what is happening to our country.Actually my husband is japanese and he told me that we the people of our country are the one who is responsible to our acts and whether we do good or bad he didnt think that it would affect other countries in the way they think about philippine and its people.

Couldn't the matter of the teacher letting the children call their teddybear Mohammed have been dealt with by the school? Surely there must be more important things in the world that need sorting out.

Is it because she is English and white. Do non of the thousands of lives destroyed by Muslim Militia in Darfur matter because they are black and poor?

I am not saying dont help the teacher but put things in perspective. The teacher will live and has a future. Thousands will not as a direct result of cleansing by the Sudanese Government.

I have just read that Gerry McCann is a witness for the defence for Dr Oldfield who is facing negligence charge due to
the death of a patient. Could this explain the "pact of silence"
Also, in J. Wilkins original statement he said that when he first saw Gerry, he was doing something to the shutters of the apartment, he told Wilkins that he was checking them. Why was this not mentioned in the Panorama programme?

You are the British Prime Minister, you have just overseen the first run on a bank in 140 years and had to pump in £24 Billion just to save it, you have lost the records of 25 million Child Benefit claimants on CD's and cant find them, you have just admitted that £600,000 given to your Party was done so illegally.

Step 1) Accused. Already done!
Step 2) Convicted
Step 3) Trial
Step 4) Prison

It's a shame that Maddie only has 25% justice at this stage, more than 6 months on!

We read that its 'D-Day' for Kate and Gerry McCann. Portuguese and UK Police and Forensics have scoured the DNA evidence and will today make the decision as to whether to prosecute the two serial child neglectors and MAIN SUSPECTS ate and Gerry McCann for involvement in the disapearance of their daughter Madeleine.

Could it be the next vital step in seeing some sense justice finally appear in this case ?

Russia would launch about 3,000 missles at our military bases, and some say we can survive if we got into an underground shelter with a half foot of earth over the top and stay in there for a month and a half. The radiation would dissipate to levels that were survivable.
