many will not,but we have to vote or the vultures will take everything you have away from you.I agree it may be a shot in the dark,but one way to get their attention is vote the incumbents out of office and new ones in every election until they get the message and ask God to guide your decision !!!

Then put sanctions against its people so they starve to death, then tell them its for their own good. America has done this in Iraq, after the first Gulf War and do you think those sanctions effected Saddam, not one bit, they have had sanctions against Cuba and Vietnam as well, could it be that America are bad losers?

Facetious? A little. But REAL? Oh yeah.

It directly addresses those who claim that somehow President Bush has been the 'cause' of 'creating' more terrorism. Ridiculous, isn't it! Sometimes people get all caught up in the moment and , before they know it, they're saying things that make absolutely no sense at all.. .. .. . ..

Like him or not, he didn't create terrorism.

Disagree with someone. .. . fine.

Hatred? Wrong! Nonproductive and stifling!

Hatred never solved anything..Hatred NEVER solved anything. HATRED never SOLVED anything. HATRED never solved ANYTHING..........How many more times do you NEED to read it before you GET IT ??

I work for a company which does scanning of paper for the govt. We have this stupid rule that I can not have a drink at my desk. I never see any original paper because I work with the electronic data. But since my office is on the side of the building with the paper, we can not have drinks at our desk. I am a manager and exempt, others are hourly and non exempt. I've been told that since I sit near workstations I can't have a drink at my desk. The closest workstation is 10 feet away in another room. I feel I am being descriminated against. Another manager who has diabetes has to leave her desk on an hourly basis with a snack and to get a cup of water, because she can not drink at her desk or eat. The other side of the building can do what ever they want. I've already spoken to HR about this and they said go blow!

I am looking to find out information on how many people including men women children both Iraqi and foreign nationals, both civilian, Military and insurgents and non official fighters of all races, have died, due to things attributable to either the first gulf war, and the sanctions imposed on the country since, and the deaths incurred since the start of the second war to date. I really mean all excessive deaths btw (ie things in no way attributable to the troubles in the country are not counted, so natural deaths, but worth keeping in mind that deaths otherwise preventable by everyday drugs which are not available, are counted as excess deaths)
so any ideas as to which records would be public record, or what "official records" may be avauilable, or any good works done by any reputable sources, which deal with estimating such things...

I've moved out from old apt for a month now, before i left i notified my landlord a month in advance. Till now i haven't got my security deposit check yet. He promised to get me my deposit check at the first time i called. But i've never heard from him since then. I've been calling him many times, really many times, left voice messages but he never returned my calls at all. I'm so annoyed, he really pushed me far to the edge. What should i do to get my deposit check? i do not have the invoice with me, however, i might have misplaced it during the move. I've never seen a landlord such irresponsible. Pls help advice what i should do. Thanks.

Only the educated and knowledgable, please. I've seen things like this go down badly, so let's exclude the "Israel sucks!" and "Iran sucks!" crowd: does anyone have a source to compare armies, strategies and likelihoods of victory between these two countries?

Adverts are banned form our TV's that are considered misleading, to sexy or contain mild swear words that offend people. This is supposedly done to protect society. However army recruitment ads tell people they will go on a big adventure, learn new skills and be defending there loved ones. What they don't mention is that you stand a good chance of killing people you have never met and worse getting killed. Surely these ads are dangerously misleading!

Currently the Bush administration is acting on the genocide that is happening in Darfur. During the Clinton Administration the same thing was happening in another part of Africa that claimed 3 million lives....Nothing was done....is this a good idea to be involved to end the strife there?

America is now a law unto itself, there is no one country in the world that they do not think they can control and I do not think that this is going to last forever. People are getting sick and tired of being told what they can and cannot do(and then the same country goes and does the same thing it said was not to be done) If they do not stop this attitude they are going to wake up down the line and the whole world will be aginst them(even England)
