Politics & Government - 26 July 2006

I hired an immigration attorney and, when it looked like I might get a bad verdict from Immigration, I left the country. Now I am considering marrying an American citizen. Actually, she is the mother of my child, who is also an American. If I hadn't viloated laws, I know I'd be in good shape. But I am worried that we won't be able to live in the States. Thank you for your help.

Maybe it's time to see how the world fares without our help? Maybe France can do a better job? Hah! Maybe it's time to work on our own country and our own countries problems and safety? Maybe someone else can phrase this better for me?

Is it, in your opinion, a form of speech?

Have you heard about the way that the government wishes to retire older Flags? Apparently, if a flag is old and worn out, it is a disgrace to the government to allow it to fly...so, the proper way to dispose of the flag is to burn it.

My hubby applied for Unemployment benefits and he was denied. He decided to appeal it. So, he had his hearing by phone today with the Judge, but the company did not show up to represent themselves and state their side of the case. So, my question is this, is it likely that we will win the case because they didn't show up?

Thank you in advance to all who answer this question.

My parents were in a car accident and their car has been declared a toal loss by the insurance company. Now they are left carless and with only 3,000. How can they go about getting more money at least to pay for the repairs or get in a new car. We are in San Antonio texas.

Because of my college education I am more apt to be in competition for a job against a legal immigrant, Ex-Pats are here working in many fields and are most likely college educated. My son goes to an International School, the school is made up of 50% Ex-Pats from England, France and the like. I have many friends that are Ex-Pats and we have had lengthy discussions about the racism, isolation that they have felt from some Americans. But keep in mind these are LEGAL immigrants. SO the argument that you only dislike illegal immigrants is mute and then there was something said about illegal immigrants causing terrorism. The last time I checked those idiots who flew in to the towers were on a legal VISA. SO what are the arguments now?

How exactaly how did Hillary Clinton hurt America when she was First Lady? How has she benefited New Yorkers since she's been in the Senate? Please be specific. Everyone seems to be so strong in their love or hate of her but one one can tell me why - backing it up their opinion with facts. Thanks!

People keep saying illegal immigrants are taking our jobs. Whose jobs are they taking? I didn’t go to college to pick vegetables or work for minimum wage or less and I don’t understand how paying the figure that we are supposedly paying for in welfare would be any different then paying to house them in jail for 2 years. Is there not a better way?

If that's the case, then why did Bush give BILLIONS of dollars in no-bid contracts to companies like Halliburton?

I'm interested in enrolling in the Air Force JAG Program. I will be starting law school in Fall of 2007. I'm concerned about the financial aspects of paying for school. But, the AF website says they only offer tuition assistance for a few minority students and a small group of enlisted soldiers. I'm not currently enlisted.

Does anyone know if they offer scholarships to law school as part of their recruitment package?

As more women in The US and Europe get into the military, I'm curious on how this influence a society? I would like to hear someones opinion from personal experience; meaning you are either a woman in the military service involving battle/war situations or you are a man working with female soldiers or you are related or close to one of these.
If you have links to sites with statistics or other relevant information that would be appreciated.
