Nancy Pelosi is Catholic yet she supports abortion rights and other things strictly opposed by the Catholic Church.

Why isn't she ex-communicated from the church based on her actions?

This is a serious question so please provide some serious responses.
Thanks

and rightly so.

its about time everyone took a step back from the racist accusations and listened to what the BNP has to say.

They only say what everyone else is afraid to.

now Gordon Brown says the law may have to be changed because they were found not guilty.

well they were found not guilty in a British court of law by a jury......... so stick that where the sun doesnt shine Mr Brown

Al Queda announced today that it was pleased Republicans lost the midterm elections. You might think they are blowing off steam, but consider the timing of this message. If Al-Queda had simply wanted to get attention, they would have announced their feelings on November 6th. But that would help the Republicans in the election. Clearly, Al-Queda is trying to repeat the incident in Spain.

They did not keep God out of Government. Only the current Democrats are doing that.

And the fact that they have a history of raising taxes is not proof.
Also, why do republicans think Rangel is one of the most important democrats? He simply said he wouldn't extend the tax cuts in 2010. He didn't say he would raise taxes. On top of that, Pelosi and Reid have already stated maybe a thousand times that the plan is to reverse the tax cuts for the 1% richest Americans and help the middle class and poor with the rising cost of living. If you don't believe Pelosi and Reid, you are not believing the truth. And that's not our fault.

Second Arrest Made In Kidnappings by 2 Who Posed as Police

By Allison Klein
Washington Post Staff Writer
Thursday, November 2, 2006; B04



D.C. police have charged a second suspect in a series of abductions and robberies committed by large men who pretended to be police officers.

Rodorrio Kittrell, 33, turned himself in Tuesday, a day after officers charged his alleged partner, Caliss Johnson, 41, with the abductions in Northwest and Northeast Washington.

Police believe the men flashed official-looking badges and guns before they accosted their victims. They stole bank cards and used them to get cash, police said, and also fondled female victims. Police said the men were easier to identify and apprehend than the average suspect because of their girth -- Johnson weighs about 350 pounds and Kittrell about 250.

The suspects were taken into custody after police released surveillance footage of one of the men using a bank machine in Maryland. Both were held without bond yesterday after they appeared in D.C. Superior Court.

When Johnson was arrested, he admitted he was involved in all three recent kidnappings and robberies and told investigators that Kittrell was his partner in two of the crimes, according to charging documents filed in court.

The documents say that in one of the crimes, on Friday, the suspects approached a couple as they sat in a car in front of a hotel on Fourth Street NE. The suspects showed a badge and displayed guns, then asked the man for his driver's license and registration, according to the documents.

They handcuffed the man, then went with the couple to their rented room. The suspects took a bank card from the man and made him tell the female victim his personal identification number, the documents say. The suspects then drove the female victim to a bank machine, and they completed five transactions, the papers say.

They drove the woman around the city for a while, stole money from her, then released her, according to the charging papers.

The first abduction happened a day earlier, about 12:15 a.m. in the 3000 block of M Street NW, in the heart of Georgetown, when a man with a badge stopped a woman and accused her of driving a stolen car. He put the woman in his car, threatened her with a gun and used her bank card to withdraw money before releasing her, police said.

The last abduction happened about 1:15 a.m. Sunday near 13th and K streets NW. The men pulled alongside a car at a traffic light and told the couple that they were being arrested for speeding, police said. The robbers used the male victim's bank card to withdraw money and buy gasoline and then released the pair, police said.

Police Chief Charles H. Ramsey said yesterday that the crimes stood out because the assailants preyed on unsuspecting victims and pretended to be police officers.

"Police impersonation is something we're always concerned about because they catch people off guard," Ramsey said in an interview on Washington Post Radio.

Investigators have not recovered the badges or gun used in the crimes. Ramsey said people can verify that the person pulling them over is an officer by calling 911 and asking the operator to confirm whether it is a legitimate stop. People also could drive at the speed limit to a well-lighted area or the closest police station.

All officers should carry a badge and an identification card, which they must present if asked, he said.

While one cannot make people swear the Pleadge, why should any group of people force others to NOT do so, if they so wish? Isn't that a violation of Free Speach?

First off I live in the state of Ohio. And I have an ex husband who visits my home frequently to see our daughter. Sometimes my ex can get very abusive, mentally and physically. My question is, even if I invite him in to see our daughter and then he starts to get out of hand and I ask him to leave and he refuses is that considered trespassing or not, because I originally let him in. What are my options at that point?
