America was founded on the principals of Liberalism a doctrine stressing the importance of human rationality, individual property rights, natural rights, constitutional limitations of government, the protection of civil liberties and individual freedom from restraint as exemplified in the writings of Adam Smith, David Ricardo, Jeremy Bentham, and John Stuart Mill.
The Classic Liberalism our country was founded on has been under attack by hypocritical moralizers in the guise of religion.

SIERRA VISTA, Ariz. - A grandmother found with a trunkful of marijuana was convicted of drug running in what prosecutors said was an attempt to earn cash for a bingo habit.

State troopers found 10 bundles of pot totaling 214 pounds hidden in Leticia Villareal Garcia’s car trunk last year when they stopped her outside Bisbee, in far southeastern Arizona.

Villareal, 61, told jurors before they convicted her Thursday that her only regular income was a $275 monthly welfare check, but she frequently played bingo and occasionally won thousands of dollars.

Prosecutor Doyle Johnstun said the game was Villareal’s undoing.

‘She’s got a bingo problem’
“People who play bingo almost every night of the week end up losing in the long run,” Johnstun told jurors. “The underlying issue is that she’s got a bingo problem, which explains why an otherwise nice person might get sucked into something like this.”

Jurors rejected Villareal’s argument that she’d been tricked into carrying the drugs.

Villareal faces three to 12 years in state prison when she is sentenced Dec. 18.

"The far-left smear machine is already cranked up over ‘Culture Warrior.' You basically have to begin with the definition of the culture war. And it's between traditionalists who believe the country is noble — America is a noble nation, we can make mistakes, but basically at the heart of our system is a nobility that makes the world a better place – and secular progressives, who believe America is a deeply flawed nation that needs a fundamental overhaul."

Our govt claims that Indian economy is booming. If that is so why every single time the DOW Jones index drops just few points our Sensex just crashes drop hundred points. If economy is booming why more than half of the population is still under below poverty line and still we hear people dieing of hunger. According to me our economy is not strong but just bubble solely dependent on the supply of dollors pumped into the country by the NRI's. The day NRI's stop sending dollors back home Indian economy bubble bursts. Will some one throw more light on this.

Many people believe they will be within the current limit if they only drink one pint.
Many others think they're still in control after two or three.

Alcohol in any quantitis is an intoxicant. That means it alters your perception, reactions, and dulls your entire mental process.
I believe that 1 drink is too much, as you should always be alert and concentrating 100% when driving.
I think the legal blood alcohol limit should be reduced to zero.
I also think that anyone caught driving wth even the slightest trace of alcohol should be banned from driving for life. No Excuses.

Via direct deposit, my former employer -- whom I left approximately two months ago -- keeps making my regular pay period deposits. My paycheck after my final work day was correctly adjusted down for the proper amount, and I did not receive anything the following payday. The payday after THAT (3rd payday after I left), I received an amount slightly less than my normal paycheck -- this is my reimbursement for unused paid vacation. The following payday (4th after I left), I received what looks like a standard 80-hour deposit. Obviously that paycheck isn't rightfully mine. I have since transferred that amount into a high-yield savings account, and will not hesitate to repay it upon demand. Am I entitled to keep the interest generated (about $1500/year) from the payments? Is it legally acceptable for me to wait for the former employer to demand repayment? I have left several messages with their HR department, but to date nobody has returned my calls.

This is actually very interesting information I've found in this link.

http://www.northcoastoregon.com/2006/11/28/Illegalaliensmurder12Americansdaily

How is it that pro-illegals actually think illegals can do more good to this country than harm? I'm not saying all illegals are this way. But it's pretty scary to know that a member of our family could be killed by an illegal by murder, or drunk driving. It's also scary to know that our daughters could be victims of rape and other sex crimes brought on by illegals as well. I really don't think it's fair that we not only support these benefits that illegal are exploiting, but we are housing illegal criminals in jail cells across the country that have been arrested on an average of 4 times each. Please read the link and let me know what you think. This is a very legitimate site.

this apparent fantasy story made up by u.s soldiers that in the first few weeks of the war in iraq, an iraqi ambush attacked a small american engineering convoy, and this jessica lynch got taken hostage and then an operation was launched by u.s special forces to rescue her.well the truth came out even before she was rescued to the world media, she was taken to an iraqi hospital to get treated, then the doctors called the u.s military she was there and told them to take her away, all this was caught on camera, so once the u.s soldiers turned up they made up the sotry that they saved jessica lynch in a speacil operation. ha ha how pathetic did they look when the world was shown the truth on t.v what realy happened, she was told not to talk to the worlds media to save thier embaressement.how sad,this was just one of many hundreds of lies leading up to the war and after, the biggest was iraq haveing w.m.d's and haveing links with alqueda.don.t worry the worlds laughing at you.

The analogy is from today's Telegraph (commentary from Philip Johnson). He says that the Conservatives, if elected, are committed to scrapping the ID card scheme but would they really do so once in office? "They will be like Frodo in 'The Lord of the Rings' trying to get rid of the One Ring, so in thrall to its power that it becomes impossible to part with it."

I've never read The Lord of the Rings. Is this a good analogy?
