Politics & Government - 25 November 2006

to deserve such an honor?(besides initiating his now infamous "War on the terrowwists?)

Some believe George W. Bush is a great president. Some believe Kennedy was, Reagan was, Bush Sr. was. So what makes Bush Jr great. Or more specifically, what exactly has Bush Jr done that surpasses all of the others, pray tell?
(Please list each accomplishment separately by number. For example
1. He invaded Afghanistan, etc.
2. something else he did)

The mother of my boyfriends child agreed to let him pick the child up from her state and bring him to Texas for good. There is no court order or written agreement and now she claims she wants the child back. He went and filed for a child support on her a few weeks ago because she was saying he'd never see the child again once he came back. My question is I've heard that if there is no court order that whoever has possession of the child has custody at that time. Will the courts recognize this notion. Any legal aids advice please help. She has threatned to file but we believe we filed first.

Should the USA not pass a law saying that only a former President can be elected ?

That way you can view each candidates track record before voting.

It is easy to understand poor liberals. They are simply looking for a handout.

It is easy to understand rich liberals. They have enough money to afford whimsical social policies.

But middle class liberals don't make sense. They have only enough money to support their families properly, but not enough to waste on the lazy. Why do it?

shouldnt it be fair that for those that wish to be part of an organized tribal system have given right to there own form of tribal politics to govern there tribe its own tribal council and mini parliament . made up of tribal chieftains elected by members of the organized tribal chain. even though this governing bodie wouldnt have mainstream powers it would give more rights for those that wish to represent there people and how they should be governd in terms of tribal laws education racial preservation and many other aspects and also remove a great deal of peasure from msinstream politics. the right to self governing in certain fields should be a given right if it dosent upset the democratic system.

Outgoing Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld authorized the mistreatment of detainees at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, the prison's former U.S. commander said in an interview on Saturday.
Former U.S. Army Brigadier General Janis Karpinski told Spain's El Pais newspaper she had seen a letter apparently signed by Rumsfeld which allowed civilian contractors to use techniques such as sleep deprivation during interrogation.
Karpinski, who ran the prison until early 2004, said she saw a memorandum signed by Rumsfeld detailing the use of harsh interrogation methods.
"The handwritten signature was above his printed name and in the same handwriting in the margin was written: "Make sure this is accomplished,"" she told Saturday's El Pais.
"The methods consisted of making prisoners stand for long periods, sleep deprivation ... playing music at full volume, having to sit in uncomfortably ... Rumsfeld authorized these specific techniques."
The Geneva Convention says prisoners of war should suffer "

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democrats on Saturday promised to help "forge a new direction" in the Iraq war when they take control of the U.S. Congress in January from President George W. Bush's Republicans.

They also vowed to clean up the scandal-rocked Congress, raise the federal minimum wage for the first time in a decade and address such concerns as the rising cost of education, health care and energy.

"This we will do, and much more -- not because we believe in the infinite wisdom of government, but because we believe in the innate goodness of our people and the promise of a brighter future in the land that we all love," Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland said in delivering his party's weekly radio address.Sectarian violence continues to rage," Hoyer said. "Our brave servicemen and women continue to be maimed and killed. And the war is not making our nation safer or more secure."
