The police service have received an annual pay rise of 3% every September since 1979 in return for waving certain rights other large companies and other emergency services have such as unions and the right to strike. Is it fair that they were offered only 2.2% despite the agreement. And is it a true reflection on the rate of inflation.

Is there any way to rent outside night time surveillance equipment? I can't afford to buy equipment like this. Someone has been damaging my property, slashing tires and leaving poisoned food for my dog. NO JOKE! I have called the police and they said they can't help me unless I catch them on video or a picture. I am at a loss on how to handle this. Only serious answers please.

This prominent GOP lawmaker is expressing doubts about my leader's policies in Iraq!

If my Republican party is going to start casting slings and arrows at my visionary and honored leader, I'm thinking I may just have to push the buttons for a few Democrats in two weeks!

do you think that electoral college is the best process to elect the most powerful person in the world? If not, what suggestions would you make to reform the process? For example, many people argued that eliminating the Electoral College would insure that every vote counted equally and would force candidates to compete in every state (not just the swing state). Other people argue in favor of using regional primaries to determine each party's candidate (as opposed to the present arrangement that forces candidates to compete in fifty separate contests). Still others focus their reforms on changing the financing of these elections

if given a chance what specific changes would you advocate to fix the Constitution (i.e., making representation in both chambers of Congress based upon population, eliminating the Electoral College, weakening the powers of the presidency, requiring the president to obtain a majority of votes cast, easing the amendment process)? If so, do you think that the approach to government is consistent with the world in which we live?
