Not George W. Bush.

I'm referring to President 41 not 43.

It seems that the Demacrats slogan this year is vote for change. But where I live every incombent is a Democrat. So should I follow their advice and vote all Republican? ( truthfully I already voted, but I thought their slogan was a little odd, at least where I live)

wire and other illegal sites people are happy to reccommend advice?

The CD question I posted may have the odd suggestion of illegal downloading but people gave them thumbs down.

I searched "limewire" in the search box and got 576 results, and only a small amount are about not using it or how to uninstall.

Don't you realise that illegal downloads also play a part in CDs being more expensive? Plus more and more people are having action taken against them now.

So why are the two any different?

Serious answers only, please. Any sarcastic, mean-spirited, jokey responses will get a thumbs down.

The question is - how open-minded are we? Do we just agree with every issue in our party's platform?

Identify yourself with either a political party or philosophy - and give me ONE example of where you differ with your own party & think the other side actually has that ONE issue right.

Or....perhaps an issue on where you're willing to bend & arrive at a compromise for the sake of trying to bring this country together a little bit, rather than continually trying to wedge it apart.

For example, I'm a registered Democrat (although I'm probably further left-of-center than the average Democrat)....however, I do commend Bush's increased funding for the National Science Foundation and his support of NASA. I believe a lot of Democrats don't support NASA as much as Bush did because they see it as a waste of money - I disagree with this.

If one were to create a job description for such a position, what would it entail? Let's say, if it applies to a United Nations member country?

The Second Amendment is the greatest gift of our forefathers. It is the one freedom that guarantees the others and allow us to defend our lives and our freedoms from those who would choose to oppress us. The rights of the many outweigh the opinions of the few. The Democratic party and their opinons, with support of the U.N. sees fit to deny us that freedom. The U.N. in all it's glory has declared that our right to defend ourselves is a violation of the rights of would-be perpetrators of our own rights. The U.N. takes pride in supporting genocide in African countries that participate in ethnic cleansing by disarming the oppressed and providing for the oppressors. To give up the Second Amendment is to give up all freedoms.

We are pretty much survailled everywhere we go anyway.
Maybe some are worried about being caught stealing, or maybe some are just worried about being caught picking their nose.
What do you think?

Every time there is an election I hear about people who don't get to vote because they weren't properly registered, went to the wrong place to vote, they don't have the right ID, os some other reason. And then those people start hollering they were disenfranchised. Who's fault is it if you don't get to vote?

Probably 99% of the fault belongs to you. You weren't registered properly? When did you go to the court house and find out what you needed to do to register to vote? Did you have the proper documentation? In some cases it might be difficult to get what you need. But it's not impossible. Your name wasn't on the list? Well the day you vote is a little late to be checking on that. Do it really early. You didn't know where to vote? Look, they don't have to notify you where you are to vote. And asking your neighbor is OK IF they work at the court house. It was cold the day you werre supposed to vote and there were long lines? Have you heard of early voting? ICYWW I've already voted.

So does that mean they'll do the same? Join in the eco-drive and all that?

Are we going to see John Prescott "choosing" to get rid of his Two Jags? Is Tony going to stop being driven around in limos and flash cars to his appearances and meetings?

Are we going to see Prescott and Tony Blair queueing up at a bus stop in the pissing rain the middle of January at 7am to get the bus to their next meeting?

Are THEY going to be freezing in the cold and rain waiting for a delayed train or having to sit next to the stinking drunk on the packed 4C bus who dribbles and vomits all over himself?

Something tells me we won't.

I've been told that the burden of proof always lies with the Plaintiff, but I've recently heard that the courts will instruct a jury that they need to decide basically if the discrimination "could have" happened, and not so much if it was proven that it did. In that case, isn't the burden of proof moreso on the defendant to prove that the discrimination DIDN'T happen at all?
