which to some point it may be true because of a certain reasons.

1. Mexicans are known to be a lot more family oriented and have stronger family values than the average American.

2. Mexicans are known to be more religious and therefore know that oral contraceptives do not prevent conception but prevent implatation of the already fertilized ovum. Therefore scientifically, and morally speaking, its a form of abortion.

Is this why Mexican have bigger families and are better sons and daughters of God since they are not murdering their own children?

And yes, Im against abortion and some ignorant people here have the idea that "it is a choice to be pregnant or not, it should not fall in the hands of gov. deciding what I do with my own body". To make it simple to people with that mentality I say this;

Doesnt elected officials in gov. vow to protect you (or your unborn child) from annybody trying to kill you?

I know it's at the UN in New York, but where is the actual big hall with the green walls where Bushy gave a speech today?

The big UN tower building doesn't look like it is wide enough to hold a huge hall like this, is the general assembly building somewhere else? Is it in the basement of the UN building?

What about where the security council meets? It think both the sec. council and GA meetings might take place underground because you never see any windows, and it would make sense for security reasons, but I'm not sure.

That is what our president did. If you want to be in charge of rebuilding Iraq you only need to be strongly neoconservative.

Examples of people sent to manage rebuilding Iraq:

- A 24 year old with no background in finance was sent to reopen the Baghdad's stock exchange.

- A daughter of a neoconservative commentator was sent to manage Iraq's budget, though she had no background in accounting.

Cell phone use has become the single largest cause of auto accidents, apart from drinking, in the country. Many states have already outlawed the use of hand-held phones while driving. Since Big Brother has already enacted laws "for our safety" involving seat belts, shouldn't this law be next?

Ok my problem is that I am being accused of traspassing and entering into sumone's property and taking a digital camera and $400 ( which in reality was only $75, but the homeowners are claiming it as more, bastards) . Along with me was a friend of mine, I believe that we can't get charged for breaking and entering because we did not enter into the house for the backdoor was open wide, therefore we din't break in. I already returned the digital camera, but the owners want there "$400" dollars back, which I do not have because in reality it was only $75 ( which my friend kept)!! So the home owners said they're going to file a police report, I am a minor and this is my first offense. I live in California, what's the worst or least thing that I can get charged for??
-thanks

I THINK THE NEOCONS ARE FAR TO SELFISH FOR JESUS. JESUS FED THE PEOPLE FISHES AND LOAVES. HECK HE'D HAVE WASHED THEIR FEET.

IF EVER THERE WAS A "BLEEDING HEART LIBERAL", IT WOULD HAVE BEEN JESUS CHRIST.

It seems like to me there is a chance for better relations of USA and Iran....if our leaders would talk!

You don't create peace by just talking to your allies!

Should our nations talk?

I am from Chicago and just got a $186 ticket for going 72 in a 55 in Wisconsin, that's only 17 mph over! I find this ridiculous and was wondering what other states may have as high, or higher fines? This ticket would have only set me back $90 in Illinois!

So far I've come up with:
They are not voted in, therefore they do not have to stand for a popular idea that might have been brought about by propaganda, but which actually has no really merit.

How does Navy housing work? Will my fiancee be able to live off base? He will be an E-4 after he graduates "A" school. We want to live together before we are married if we can. Will the navy pay our housing expenses off base? What about if he is deployed? I guess I just need info in general about housing.

This week, the Senate is planning to QUIETLY hold a vote that would pardon President Bush for breaking the law by illegally wiretapping innocent Americans.

The bill would let the administration off the hook for breaking the law and make it legal to wiretap Americans, in secret, without any oversight whenever they want to.

Democrats and some Republicans are holding strong against it, and if enough of us speak up we can stop it. Can you sign the petition opposing the Republican move to pardon President Bush for breaking the law?

Obviously, I think he should be prosecuted instead of pardoned. Make your voice & opinion heard!

it doesn't even have to be blatantly political... but if it's not obvious that it is political... explain how you look at it...

one of my favorites is "Mr. President (have pitty on the working man)" by Randy Newman...

Okay here is the deal- my mom being as absent minded as she can possibly be is supposed to begin a new job tomorrow. Not realizing that 2 weeks ago she recieved a notice to appear for jury duty( which also is for tomorrow). Now she happened to find the paper for jury duty today and calls me freking out, because it took a while for her to find this job. She tried calling, but they were closed already. If she misses jury duty it is contempt of court and she can face jail time, but if she does not start this job she will not have rent. what are her options?
