I live in a house that at this time i rent, with the understanding i will own when they retire.(land lords are my parents) Nexted to my house aprt. are being built. When planing and zoning came in they said that the road next to my house will have to be widen. I have three trees nexted to the road. I was told that the two trees closest to the road would be cut down but the one nexted to my house would stay. Well the tree cutting people took all three trees. they said they had a work order to do this. So do I suck it up because i do not own the land yet or can i suw for a new tree?????

No.

Fact:The United States has the highest crime rate in the Western world,and it has the death penalty.In countries where the death penalty does not exist,the murder rate is much lower.

So why cant we just get rid of goverment sactioned barbarism and
lower our murder rate already?

to Bush's war on terror? If true, would that be considered blackmail? This is getting very bizarre, almost unbelievable. Is the media trying to ignore this story, like it tries to ignore anti-American stories (like the level of corruption in the Iraqi occupation)?

It must be fun being Musharef with India threatening war, the Islamists trying to blow him up, and the USA threatening to bomb him.

This has been an on going dispute with the court system for almost 18yrs. I have provided the courts with paternity test proven that the child is not mine. Since the mother cannot provide a paternal father they will not release me of child support obligation. I have another appeal coming up soon, but they will reject it like the others. This has been a waste of time with the courts because they don't want to hear me. What action do I need to take with the court to clear me of this obligation of child support. Also the mother has admitted to the courts that I am not the biological father they also won't hear her. I don't have much money, I'm not working at this moment how can I get free legal assistance to represent me in court?

I see so many criminals on here whining about how their records affect their lives, and wanting to live as though they never committed the crime. But face it. Murder victims and people killed because of drunk drivers are still dead. (And when I say murder, I mean murder, not self-defense.) My uncle is in a wheelchair forever as a result of what a worthless drunk driver did to him, why should the woman who chose to drink herself into a stupor when she knew she had to drive get to live like it never happened?

Remember, these people make a choice to break the law. They choose to rob the convenience store, shoot the clerk (instead of working for the money) or get drunk when they know they will be driving. So it's not like they are in any way victims.

And just in case anyone wants to bring up the sob story about the guy who was "just along for the ride" when his friends decided to commit a crime, keep in mind he chose to hang with people he knew were criminals.

IAEA officials say hawks in the Bush Admin.
are trying to pull the "Iraq Scenario" in Iran where they accuse the inspection process of being inefficient. Bush didn't allow UN inspectors in Iraq to finish the job before invading. If he would have, we would not be there now. That would have been unacceptable to Cheney!

I think the U.S people think we Iranians hate them but as far as I can see all Iranians including me love them.I live in Iran myself.We just don't agree with their government's policies."Be with us or you're a terrorist!"This is stupid!Right?I just don't get the point why Americans hate us.Surly because of lies and propaganda they have heard and they are still hearing against us.If I were them I would collect all these media and Bush's lies,put all of them in a box and throw them away!There would be no conflicts anymore!

Should we be rewarded for having children and getting married? If nobody is rewarded or penalized for the choices they make, would that be MORE fair? I hear all of the time that women make less than men, because they could have children and quit their jobs. ALthough I know damn well that isn't the reason, shouldn't a woman who chooses NOT to have a family be granted equal pay for equal work? Or at least recieve free birth control? Seriously, I am libertarian for a reason...

In every political debate in this country when republicans are faced with well-thought out and articulated differences of opinion their only response is to attack the person of the opposing opinion. Its very sad.

Have you ever heard Ann Coulter or Rush Limbaugh? They never offer contrary opinions or solutions only personal attacks and degradations. This seems to have become the standard conservative tactic in all political debate.

Let the attacks commence!

After years of drug abuse, do you think that Rush's brain may of suffered damage?

It is a fact that continual drug use destroys brain cells! And some people will never recover.

Would a lobotomy help Rush recover from the damage drugs inflicted on him?

Of course, the LIBERAL courts didn't make him go to jail for being a drug abuser, like they do to everyone else! Maybe Rush should be thankful to the liberals!

House Passes H.R. 4844, the Federal Election Integrity Act
On Wednesday, September 20, 2006, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Federal Election Integrity Act of 2006 by a vote of 228-196. As the legislative session winds to a close, H.R. 4844 is another part of the House GOP national security strategy devised to show political support for securing the nation at its borders and now at the ballot box. H.R.4844 seeks to prevent fraud in the election process by requiring photo identification for voters in federal elections. All states will be mandated to check voters' photo identification by the November 2008 election. By November 2010, states will only be allowed to accept photo identification that was issued upon presenting proof of citizenship. Eligible voters who cannot pay for identification cards will be provided one by the state at no charge. Costs for such a mandate will be reimbursed by the federal government.

A recent NBC/Wall Street Journal poll showed 81% of those surveyed favored an ID requirement for voting. In another poll conducted by Rasmussen, 77% of likely voters across the country agree that displaying a photo ID should be required to cast a vote. A number of states have already acted to require voters to follow proof of citizenship. In Phoenix, Arizona, registration went up 15% after passing a referendum requiring voters to prove citizenship when registering to vote. These changes encourage citizens to vote and discourage illegal voting.

Congressman Vernon Ehlers (R-MI) said in a statement, "Every day millions of Americans show a picture ID to pay by check, board a plane, or buy alcohol or tobacco. Surely, the sanctity of the ballot warrants as much protection as these activities. Requiring people to show an ID to prove their citizenship and eligibility will protect the vote, and help restore confidence
