Politics & Government - 9 July 2006

My boyfriend is soon to be deployed to Iraq and since I always want to have a place in his heart (hehe!)- I've been thinking about a list of things to send him over the course of his year-long tour. I know that he's not a big fan of junk food, so that's not really an option. There has to be some experienced care-packagers out there, so if you have any tips, let me know!

we rung the police 2 hours ago.He has been abusive before at my door saying he didnt want my friend parking his motorcycle outside my flat.This neighbour appears to drink a lot & this is happening when he gets drunk.Iam not the type of person to confront him as i dont like violence & it has never been a part of my life.I suffer with Depression & my female friend who also lives next door to this guy has health problems feels afraid to go home.I don't want to confront him as i dont want to inflame the situation.
We have now rung the Police 3 times but are still waiting for them.
Does anyone have any suggestions what we can do as the Police have not arrived after 2 hours.Can anyone advise us what we can do now as we dont want matters to escalate while he is still hanging around.We live in the UK.

Granted, his speech to the U.N. was not entirely truthful, but I really don't think he knew that to be the case. I think he was duped by Bush, Cheney, and the CIA. I still consider Powell to be honorable. After all, he resigned as Sec. of State soon after it became evident that he was duped. Would you vote for him?

I would include Shallow Al Frankenstein, but I don't think that Hot Air Unamerica is on substantial airwaves. This question goes out to patriots, not "loving" abortionist libturds.

When I search these terms I keep getting Mexicans driving in America or American tourists in Mexico. I don't want either. I want to know if there's a Mexican equivalent of DMV. What are the driving laws in Mexico for Mexicans? Are they enforced? Is insurance required of their drivers? Are there online sources to answer this question?

I think even conservatives would agree that liberal policies are 'nicer', whatever your definiton of nice is. I mean, liberal views are generally aimed at helping everyone and not just yourself, giving people more choice over what they do and how they live their lives, fighting less war, etc, etc. So to me it just seems that conservatism is humanly unnatural. Isn't it inherent in human nature to have liberal opinions, about letting people choose, being peaceful, helping others?

What makes people become conservative? Is defending yourself before others and trying to make others do the same as you just as much inherent in human nature? Does is vary from person to person? Do people become conservative due to a lack of understanding? Are conservatives selfish people? Is it due to a lack of education? Is it down to religion? Why is it that most conservatives are also christians?

I am liberal but I'm not trying to attack conservatives, I'm just trying to understand them really.

A man murdered a woman brutally and has been incarcerated for the 3 1/2 years since it happened. This is a death penalty case. The mental hospital says he's competent and sends him back to the jail and then he decompensates. This full cycle has happened twice. If he is able to maintain the appearance of incompetency, is it possible that he will be set free since a trial can't be held because he maintains his incompetency? If yes, how likely is this by percent. What other option will there be since he has been to the hospital twice now, regains competency, is sent back for trial, and again appears incompetent.
