Politics & Government - 23 October 2006

I worked for a doctor for a year, I was fired for calling him a lyar (unrelated issue) right after I was fired he had me arrested for grand theft and claimed that I stole $15000 over the course of the year I was there, and had presented a "spreadsheet" that had the amount stolen per month ($1000 plus per month). There was an account checked the books and signed off on them each month balancing out. After spending a total of 3 nights in jail and making a plea of NOT GUILTY, I waited on trial for 2 1/2 years and was found not guilty. during the 2 1/2 years I lost wages because I was unable to go any further in my career as a medical biller because no one would higher someone with pending grand theft charges, I lost patches of my hair diognosed as stress hair loss, and was forced to re-sign my rental lease twice because I couldn't move from the county. not to mention leagal fee's and money for baby sitters during docket calls and trial. Is there any thing I can sue for???

I recently had a pcl reconstruction on my right knee due to an injury I received while training. Prior to joining the Army I had to get a waiver due to an acl reconstruction I had a few years before. Do you think that with the pcl surgery combined with the prior acl surgery I will be medically discharged?

GOP gave us tax cuts which helps
GOP now will claim the economy is great with Stock Market breaking the 12000 barrier.
BUT
What impact has inflation had on everything that a Middle Class American buys?
Gasoline, Health Insurance costs and coverage, Groceries are a majority of outgoing expenses in our households. How does the increase in these prices compare to what we are saving with the GOP tax cuts? Why doesn't anyone address this?

And what about exporting jobs overseas? If these big companies take away our jobs , how do they expect us to buy their products?

If companies pay low wages to illegal immigrants and refuse to pay competitive wages to legal citizens, how do they expect us to buy their products?

Ok how do I stop this guy from harassing me its been 6 months since I stoped talking to him and about 9 months since I saw him we dated for just a short time about 2 months.
He will not leave me alone for the first couple of months he harassed me non stop writing me emails,texts, calls, and trying to show up at my work and house. He finally stoped and now all of the sudden he's doing it again. He sends me emails at work and textes me. I want him to stop. I want to know how to? I dont want to go to court cause then we would be in the same room together but I want him to know Im serious and he needs to stop. Can a police officer go to his house and tell him to stop with out a court order? How do I block his emails at work?
I know this is alot but Im scared that he will try to hurt me!

NJ

I recieved a speeding ticket for inadvertantly going 43mph in a 25mph zone. The flow of traffic was similar and I was simply attempting to pass the adjacent car in order to go on my right lane and turn at the upcoming light.

I drive through the area daily and knew that my usual route was detoured due to construction. I took a different route (Broadway) and ended up getting stopped 1/2 a block from my destination.

The officer has written "780 Broadway" and I had NOT driven through that area. In fact, I had turned onto Broadway in the 730-740 area and was stopped around 575-585 Broadway. 4 Blocks away from where i had turned, and 5 blocks away from "the location of the offense"

Would I be able to dispute this fact in court?

He stated that she had to have had "millions of dollars" in plastic surgery and had no idea why Bill married her. Are these the rantings of a moron who knows he's about to be spanked in the election, or do they have a proper place in politics?

I think restrooms that have high doors that make it easy to beat the ban, or a membership card for a $1.00 that is only given to adults that makes the bar private and beats the law. I can say that I have never spent money in a non-smoking bar and will not.

Yes, the US military up to this point has prevented a major civil war from happening in Iraq but what happens when the Iraqi Shittes get as sick of the US military as the Iraqi Sunnis? Which would mean the US military would be surrounded by enemies and even the US military would have a tough time killing millions of people. Do you think the US military would have to "cut & run" at that point or do you think Bush would stick with his no cutting and running policy and have the US military mow down as many Muslims as possible?

Oh my! I just bought The Daily Record (scottish paper) And on the front page, it says around 350 prisoners will be allowed leave from prison this christmas to spend time with their family. Including a double baby killer and a terrorist plotter.

Whats going on with this. Surely when you get sentenced to jail you should stay in jail. I wonder hown many will commit another offence whilst out for the jolly season. **watch this space**

Oh and i think ill stay indorrs this xmas, with my doors locked !

I have full custody of my boys. My ex has visitation bi-monthly. We usually get along. However, my 10 year old son just informed me that my ex took my boys out to eat with my father this weekend. My father physically and sexually abused my sisters and I- I do not allow my children to see my father. My ex is fully aware of this and knows that I do not want the boys to see my father. When one of my sons tried to call me (they have their own cell phone) to tell me, my ex's current wife stopped them. This isn't the first time she has stopped them from calling me.The boys also told me that she (the current wife) threatened to "beat" them the other day. I blew it off, thinking she said it in jest. But now?My question is this: can I do anything at this point besides hire a lawyer? I want my ex to see the boys but now only when supervised (at HIS father's house- I trust his father). Please don't attack me citing father's rights. I dont want to stop visits but he's irresponsible.

murphy's laws of combat
You are not Superman.
If it's stupid but it works, it isn't stupid.
Never draw fire; it irritates everyone around you.
Odd or conspicuous objects attract fire. Never lurk behind one.
Armored vehicles are bullet magnets.
Incoming fire has the right of way.
It's not the one with your name on it; it's the one addressed "to whom it may concern" you've got to think about.
The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire.
Tracers work both ways.
If the enemy is in range, so are you.
If the sergeant can see you, so can the enemy.
Those who hesitate under fire usually do not end up KIA or WIA.
There is nothing more satisfying than having someone take a shot at you, and miss.
Avoid loud noises; there are few silent killers in a combat zone.
One enemy soldier is never enough, but two is entirely too many.
Try to look unimportant. The enemy may be low on ammo.
When in doubt, empty your magazine. Ammo is chea

Last week i was pulled over by a state police officer. The officer came to my window and asked for registration and insurance. I didn't have them current. At no point in time did the officer inform me as to why he had pulled me over. After he found that I didn't have current info, he told me he smelled pot. He went on to search my vehicle and found a pipe and a piece of pot the size of a penny... literally the size of a penny. He gave me tickets for not having current info and for possession of pot under a ounce with paraphernalia and also towed my car. My question is, since the officer did not inform me as to why i was being pulled over, does that violate traffic stop procedure and give me a good standing case in court to have the charge of possession dropped on a count of illegal search and seizure or some sort of procedure violation? I would be willing to take the consequences for my actions but I feel exercising my rights is only fair and also since the pot is used only for migraine head aches (obvious by the amount found) I feel the judge may have some sort of leniency toward me... what do you think? Do I stand a good chance in court?
