Politics & Government - 7 August 2006

the usa produced several noble souls and they value for free speach. even atheists who don't believe in reincarnation,like to be born in the usa.and most of the asians yearn for green card of the usa. but why irrespective of having all these good qualities, don't raise their voice against the nefarious, imperialistic and hegemonic designs of their government against its foreign policies? it invaded iraq without any valid reason. it gave tacit support to israel which caused for the death of innocent children. it does not speak a word about the military junta of myanmar and pakistan which is encouraging religious terrorists against india. through cia the usa government made 638 futile attempts to assasinate fidel cuba. it met withhumiliating defeat in the hands of vietnam.do you know your government is playing the role of super cop and is imposing its terms and conditions on small countries in the world.criticism of your govt is not tantamount to criticising americans. i love americans.

Now there are world renowned scientists saying that the building could not have come down the way we told they did and that it had to be a demolition job - Top US professors and scientists (yesterdays yahoo news) facing black ball status for the things they are saying.

What would the US get ? Is this or was this a prelude to a race war with the Muslim's? The wars the US is currently in could only be justified by an internal attack - was the world supposed to get sucked into a genocidal plot but then didn't forcing the US to revise it's plans? Iraq - no justification - no WMD now Iran is on the hit list and the US is giving Israel millions of everything to kill Lebonese while blocking (until recently) UN resolutions demanding peace.

If 9/11 was staged what would they get out of it other than justification to start a race war?Lets face it the media has been pushing me to hate muslims and Arab for a few years now.

I've found conservatives feel that government's job is to uphold the law, and defend our country. Not to have social programs, or help people in their everyday lives. If this is true, how do you explain spending money to make other countries democratic?

myself and other colleagues were bullied at work. Complaints put in but people decided to turn a blind eye. This authority has failed on their duty of care to myself and other colleagues because they new this was going on. Union really did not want to know they said this sort of thing happens. This person has destroyed the confidence, health and self-worth of several people.
After so many complaints and a third investigation this person was then told either to resign or be sacked (of course which one would you choose).
They are now saying that people who have been off for over 12 months due to this person have no claim as this person resigned. What a cover up this has been from the start to the finish. This is not the end as we cannot let this happen to anyone else.
The perpetrator has now got a job in another county, same position and is doing same to other people. Already paid out thousands in solicitors fees due to lack of representation by union. need help what to do

the bush legacy?
EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE:

· LAW ENFORCEMENT: I was arrested in Kennebunkport, Maine, in 1976 for driving under the influence of alcohol. I pled guilty, paid a fine, and had my driver's license suspended for 30 days. My Texas driving record has been lost" and is not available.


MILITARY: I joined the Texas Air National Guard and went AWOL. I refused to take a drug test or answer any questions about my drug use. By joining the Texas Air National Guard, I was able to avoid combat duty in Vietnam.
COLLEGE: I graduated from Yale University with a low C average. I was a cheerleader.
PAST WORK EXPERIENCE:

I ran for U.S. Congress and lost.
I began my career in the oil business in Midland, Texas, in 1975. I bought an oil company, but couldn't find any oil in Texas. The company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my stock.
I bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using taxpayer money.
With the help of my father and our right-wing friends in the oil industry (including Enron CEO Ken Lay), I was elected governor of Texas.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF TEXAS:

I changed Texas pollution laws to favor power and oil companies, making Texas the most polluted state in the Union.
During my tenure, Houston replaced Los Angeles as the most smog-ridden city in America.
I cut taxes and bankrupted the Texas treasury to the tune of billions in borrowed money.
I set the record for the most executions by any governor in American history.
With the help of my brother, the governor of Florida, and my father's appointments to the Supreme Court, I became President after losing by over 500,000 votes.

In my first year in office, over 2 million Americans lost their jobs and that figure has risen to over 3 million lost jobs by the end of 2003.
I'm proud that the members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in U.S. history.

I have set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously protest me in public venues (15 million people), shattering the record for protest against any person in the history of mankind.

Why is Bush's cabinet almost half-minority while the only minorities that John Kerry employs works as maids and lawn care "professionals".

I have called the police, the multi-unit housing inspector who is also the health inspector, and my attorney's assistant. Where else can I go to get help. My lungs are hurting (I have asthma, but a person should not have to feel their lungs!), I have a sinus headache and phlegm-filled throat (and sore throat) and I'm always tasting and smelling the smoke that keeps getting shoved into my respiratory system. HELP!

As far as smokers rights go, I know they are dwindling, but my right to breathe clean air takes precedence. Sorry, I doubt that many judges would agree that smoking takes top priority.

Serious answers only, please. Thank you.
