Truly, how can Kerry, Kennedys, Gores, etc., really relate when they have never had REAL jobs? Nor has anyone in their families.

Is it possible for conservatives to make an argument without quoting the Bible, or for liberals to counter that argument without denouncing the Bible? And can either side make an argument without vilifying the other? I'm sure there are a lot of intelligent people out there who can support their beliefs without taking shots at the opposition, so why do we always resort to the blame game?

New York politicians allowed up to one-third of the $20 billion in federal aid awarded to the city in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks to be squandered right under their noses, an analysis by the New York Daily News found last December.

But that hasn't stopped some of the same politicians from complaining all weekend about a mere $80 million cut in New York City's federal anti-terrorism budget.

Senators Hillary Clinton, Charles Schumer and Rep. Peter King say they're outraged over the new cuts, with Clinton and King teaming up to launch a post-card writing campaign against the Department of Homeland Security.

The bipartisan duo sounded a lot less angry six months ago, when the News uncovered evidence that billions in 9/11 cash had been misspent, gone unaccounted for and, in at least one case, was awarded to the Mafia.

president bush is probably THE most polarizing president in our era. why? is the intensity of the criticism of the man more a reflection on how little society respects authority in general and the office of the presidency in particular, or is it a critique on the way he is performing his duties?

extra credit: same president, same job performance. would your grandparents be criticizing bush as much as this generation does if they were in our shoes, or would they be more tolerant? why?

A report by the Southern Poverty Law Center documented 803 hate groups operating in the U.S. last year--33 percent more than in 2000. The Border Guardians, an organization based in Arizona, is accused by the center of working with neo-Nazis to harass and steal money from undocumented immigrants.

My son is interested in joining the Navy. He had a drug misdemeanor 4 years ago. He is currently on deferred adjudicated probation for a Felony that happened 3 years ago. He is almost through with his Felony probation, the charges will be dropped once it is completed. He wants to go into the Navy, but isn't sure if this will affect his chances of joining. Will he be able to join the Navy with his past record?

How long and what do you have to go through to become a highway patrol office in anyone of these states? Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, California. How do you feel about street racers I don't have a licence but 100% sure i'm gonna enjoy driving fast and have at least one street race within the first 3 month's of getting my licence. It's kinda weird but I'm on both sides of the law I like the highway police but I also don't. If you can tell me the salary per year for highway patrol officers in those states. Do you have to have a certain number of years before you can be a highway patrol officer. And is it illegal to admit you have broke a law and is it illegal to see a car crash but leave the scene. E-mail me if you want to explane more but you don't have to.

Global problems require global solutions:- how can this planetary civilization evolve without a One World Government (based on a fantastic constitution of peace love and understanding of course)...and I don't mean the United nations.

Who would hate this idea the most? What nations as we know them today would hate this idea the most.....

Do you think the average person (global average person that is) would agree to dismantle the militaries of all nations- so we could all live in peace and plenty?

Who wants war? and famine? and fear?
