Politics & Government - 5 October 2006

We had our presidental elections on the 28th sep, and after the results were annouced. i believe the elections were not fair and free and yet the international observers said that the election were fair and that they were happy with the turn out of events. Am disappointed with them because they did not consider the common man at the bottom level in our peace loving zambia.

..I know I couldn't. Here in the UK we have labour.. and for all the newspaper BS we're loving it!! Low unemployment, high economic growth, free and subsidised healthcare, welfare for the poor and a million schemes to force their useless asses back into work! Blair is a c*nt but at least he kept back the tories from trying to destroy the country..

Well there over in the US. Is it time to introduce some reforms to help the poor and start treating yourselves like americans should? Or will you wallow in more republican misery?

Peace,
United Kingdom

Advert highlights

1] You dont need to be Jewish (but you CANNOT be Muslim duh!)

2] Its well paid - in shekels or US $

3] Previous military service experience compulsory - SAS preferred but not essential

4] Ability to work undercover, in foreign lands

5] Arabic spoken a decided advantage

If you noticed this advert, would you apply? Why?

I disagree with Bush or even his grand scheme to invade Afghan, Iraq, axis of evil, whatever.... but I also dislike the idea like making him assasinated in movie, or ridiculing his Christian faith....

Why do people -including American citizen- tend to act irrational when they come to Bush?

the left drops this bombshell 5 weeks before the election in an obvious attempt to grab power. they hide the identity of the 21 year old accuser, in the hopes his identity will not be revealed until after the elections, but in an ABC glitch, his identity is revealed, he was 18 at the time of the dreaded instant messages. Now since the dems are the party of mass gay weddings and the like, (as well as DEMOCRATIC congressman Studds of Massachusetts, who had an actual relationship with his 17 year old paige, won re-election and retired 13 years later), what is the dems point with this one? Is he still a child predator when he hits on 18 year olds? or will the dems come up with other smear jobs in order to grab power, in lieu of actually campaigning ideas and solutions instead of smears? and pray to allah that it sticks?

India officially has no religion. For Indians all religions are equal. Some leaders tend to be irreligious. countries like USA have Christianity as religion even though they are tollerent to other religions unlike islamic countries.

I have been recieving numerous phone calls from an ex-girlfriend of a guy i've been "dating". She calls me about 17 times a day and has left me about 10 voicemail messages. She even went as far as to get my home number and called me there. I don't want to have to change my phone number or screen all my calls out of fear that it's this crazy bytch. But i am wondering if I can bring any type of complaint/charge against her or should I just put on my boxing gloves and be prepared to kick her ***. I'd rather just file a complaint. Anyone know. TIA!

Honest mistake by the idiots at Fox, or a conscious decision to try and confuse their already addle-minded viewers?

Aren't we told Communism is bad, yet we borrow money from them and trade with them? I guess Communism is only bad when it doesn't benefit you.

I took part in a thread where this partial definition was given...

""If a potential employer is going to judge me adversely, based on my political, religious, or other opinions, then I am SO SURE I do not want to work with them. It is still a 2 way street. That's called the American Spirit."

My response.. "What you say looks pretty in print, it may work for a select few but it won't get you very far in the real world for the vast majority, and you know it. If you really wanted to do these girls a favor you would explain that to them, instead of taking some idealistic approach that is going to sound wonderful to them *now* only to find out later in life that the world doesn't work that way. Also, your version of the American Spirit isn't going to pay the bills or put food on the table. Your interpretation of the American Spirit and other peoples interpretation may be different.

There is more to this post coming give me a minute here to add more details.

Where will all this politicaly correct nonsense end? Yesterday I was in Leeds city center and I noticed they had put up the Christmas lights, ready for the November/ December shopping sprees. There were a few stars and Christmas tree shapes here and there, but then I walked into one of the main high streets and what I saw stunned me.

The "Christmas" lights were a footballer!? A cricket player!? A computer or something, not very christmassy you would agree. I walked on.

A recycling symbol!?!?! Two hands shaking! (and you can bet they're two different colours when lit up)

And then surrounding a sign that says something like "Leeds, a city of the future" was a church, a synagogue and.... wait for it... a Mosque!

We all heard about some city councils last year, trying to ban the lights all together as to not offend ethnic minorities. Yet they will still put up lights for Ramadan.

Is Christmas going to end up being abolished because it might offend some non Christians?

He knew what he was doing and to say he's gay, how is that justifing his actions. If his plan is to say he's gay and link pedophilia with homosexuality, then he's living in a delusional world. The alcoholism thing, seems that's the escape of everyone that gets into a tight spot. Mel Gibson went to rehab after he got hammered by his anit-sematic comments. Anytime a celeb or politician gets into a bind he goes to rehab. Rehab is not going to excuse the persons actions. Though he resigned, at this point to try and find an excuse to link between what he did is unacceptable, he should just accept that he will be investigated and if found guilty, he will face the Law.

I downloaded Schedule 2 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, which lists the birds (in the UK) that may be killed or taken at anytime.
It includes house sparrows and starlings, which I thought were now protected. Can anyone tell me where I can be sure of obtaining an up to date document.

Please only answer if you know, I don't want to have to wade through a load of irrelevant answers about "being cruel", or answers in relation to countries outside the UK, and double please no god bothering answers either.
cheers peeps

Hastert seems to be of the opinion that it's time to rethink allowing the Page program to continue in light of the Foley scandal. Wouldn't it be better to ensure these kids are treated with respect and not as fresh meat for dirty old men and women? The page program is important for those teens who aspire to public service and want to get first hand experience on how the country works.

Is he throwing the baby out with the bathwater?
