My hub is risking his life, although we have children. I'm sorry to be angry, but it's hard to feel proud when it's people you love in the middle of this!

I've seen them do it in movies, but given that these things are going Mach 3+ I find it hard to believe...

Of course, JFK's assasination is a topic of wild speculation and conspiracy theories. So whether it was LH Oswald or not, what was the motive? I've never heard a plausible explanation of the motive.

Face the facts world, the children are growing up in single parent homes. One parent leaves the other for whatever reason, and the child is put in the middle of the situation. One parent wants to blame the other parent and they both want to call the other names, we even have the country calling the men that do not pay "dead beat dads". The respect for family is going down the drain in the eyes of some people, and the children are witnessing this cycle of abuse. Because that is exactly what it is, abuse. I am looking for a reasonable solution to the child support issue, because I know that some custodial parents are out their doing drugs, and saying that it is the only way for them to cope with the world surrounding them. Some are making excuses to let the non custodial parents have the children, because they are using the state welfare system to go on HUD and substandard housing, making enough money and not reporting it. This is called welfare fraud. The states need to reform.

A) We could free up jails for real criminals and stop the rotating door.
B) We can tax the crap out of it and use for education or health spending
C)Allow police to spend their time more efficently and stop the killing of DEA agents and countless others who die in the war on drugs
D) It is easier to get weed than beer for minors
The harder drugs are harder to defend because they really mess people up. I am not a pothead i never touch the stuff, but the people who are not that dangerous. Alcohol is more dangerous on the road or in social situations than weed is. It is even used for medical use how helpful is that. Its a good pain killer and I think cigarettes are more dangerous to people health than weed. So why the opposition too weed?

I am trying to help some of you heartbroken folks out in this world, because some of you are not getting the big picture that it takes two to make a baby. No name calling, this is probably what has caused the breakup or the other person to look eslewhere. We know that the child needs money that is a necessity to survive, but if you are making it without the child support don't cause the other parent any misfortune. Life as it's way of moving people into positions to where compromises do take place. We are putting our children in the way of issues that they should never be concerned about, some of them are barely passing their state issued exams. Custodial parents get the EIC and the convience of medicaid for the children or child, and the state includes the parent with the child. Yet the states are requiring the non- custodial parents to provide health insurance. We all know that health insurance is expensive. Child support should help solve problems yet it is creating them.

JFK was one of this country's most patriotic and strongest presidents, his military record speaks for itself and he stood up against the likes of Nikita Krushev and Fidel Castro when he was president,He never backed off when it came to this country's safety,and now we have this obese blimp of his brother in the senate that will sell his grandmother for votes and will sell this country just to get the future illegal voters in this country on his side,hope the state of Massachusetts wakes up

Mr. Bush just talks about all the terrorism in Iraq, but it seems he just lets Canada try to hold him off. Hell, why the Iraqi war in the first place? I never hear a straight answer.

I don't mean to be hateful, I just want to know.

First of all, I am not racist, and this question is meant to be satirical and a twisted view of irony in some of the current events.

The Americans, well at least most of them, and particularly the Conservatives, are percieved to be white supremacists.
They see Iran as an Asian country, with an Asian religion, and some interpret it as a clash of civilisations.
But Iranians are an Aryan race. The word Iran itself is derived from Arya. They call themselves Aryans.
So isn't there a contradiction here - Bush, a believer of a Semitic religion - Christianity - going against 'Aryans'.

Surely if they're guilty, a trial is the only just route to take. This is what the founding fathers enshrined in the constitution.

There are those who want those borders to be open to anyone who wants to come here and work, to do the jobs that citizens won't do.

There are those who say that this country shouldn't speak English as our official, national language not everything from Arabic to Vietnamese. The letter "W" would be Welsh, and there are no languages I can find for "X" and "Z". "Y" would stand for Yiddish.

And finally, there are those who would dissolve our American culture in a flood of multi-cultural "diversity".

We have to put up with all this because it is politically correct to do so. Otherwise, someone might have their feelings hurt. Someone might be uncomfortable. It wouldn't be fair! Hey, life isn't fair, and you need to grow some calluses on those feelings. As for your discomfort, step back, because that's me, standing on your toes!

Paying parents that try to make the payments, you keep on making the payments. You can not help support the whole household that your children live under and support your household as well. I believe that paying parents are being discriminated against and taken advantage of because there are not enough tax incentives to help them survive. I know that some paying parents may make a lot of money than they are paying, but some of them do not make enough to survive. And to all those that are trying to use their children as a control factor over the other, you need to show yourself and your children some respect. Whether you like it or not the other parent will be a part of that child's life someday.
