Politics & Government - 6 December 2006

Hi,
I have had problems with ants in my apartment for the last three months. I have tried to work with them during this time. Basically they send someone out to put poison down once a week if I call them but this has had no effect. I asked them if I could move into a different apartment, but they said 'oh we'll figure it out so you don't have to move'. Is this grounds for terminating my lease and if so, how should I go about it? The state I live in is Texas by the way.
I have a baby on the way, so I would like to get this taken care of quickly.
Thanks

and potential terrorist state in the making, now his Generals are advising a "cut and run" strategy to save US soldiers lives and leave the country to burn. The US president should be executed for what he has done since coming to power.
Comments welcome.

Every president of the United States has been over 40 years of age;
male, white, and Protestant (except JFK, who was Catholic). What, in
your opinion, is the likelihood of this changing? How will it change,
and when?

I was wondering if anybody knows if a Marine, or anybody in the military for that matter, can come home from overseas if one of their parents is terminally ill/dies? This is really sad to ask but I need to know. Thanks.

I ordered an item on line, paid with credit card. ARGOS sent wrong item. After 3 attempts they managed to collect the item. I was supposed to be refunded in 5 - 7 days. After 10 e-mails threats of legal action (from myself) still no sign. Ringing them is impossible to get through. Anyone know where I stand legally ? or can recommend any good legal advice on the web ? I'd take them to court tomorrow but I can't afford it !

I know much of the money contributed to Social Security was 'borrowed' by the US Government and if you ask Congressmen what Social Security got in return they will tell you T Bonds. This sounds good if your highest grade level completed was 3rd.

Think about this. You borrow $10 (social security tax) and you put it into your left pocket. Then you take it out and put it into your right pocket (money added to the US budget). So that everything balances you put an IOU (US T bonds) in your left pocket. Later you spend the $10 to buy a pair of socks (i.e. some government expense like a bridge in the middle of nowhere).

When the person you borrowed the money from asks to be repaid, what is going to happen? How will the money be repaid?

Such creative financing gets corproation executives sent to jail. What happens when Congressmen do it? They get re-elected. What do you think about this?

I'm writing to you from my hospital bed as I recover. My family gave me a laptop and I found this site.

So, how did the war go? I remember some of those dammed liberals didn't want us to go in, but we had to.

How many and what kind of WMD's was that bastard Sadam hiding and waiting to attack us with?

How did we show the world that there was a link between Sadam and that bastard Bin Laden (what happend when he was caught? Did we make him pay for 9/11?).

Was it great to see how the Iraqi people greated us as liberators?

I'm sure it all went farily smoothly with just a few troops: did we kick their asses?

Have we achieved that more peaceful and stable Middle East and Afganastan?

OK so here's the deal: My parents are divorced with a no-contact order. They've been divorced for over 3 years. My father was paying child support with no problems until just recently. The system has been updated so that he is no longer supposed to pay her directly, it's supposed to be taken from his paycheck and given to the state, and the state is supposed to pay her the child support. (To ensure that he's paying, and to make sure they're keeping the no-contact order, I guess). That court decision was made in October. Ever since then, she hasn't been receiving child support payments. Any idea what might be going on? I really need to know because she's trying to get me to move back in with her to help support the family, as she is unable to provide enough income herself. (She's working part time, going to college, and has 6 kids besides me). Needless to say, I really don't want to do that, but I feel really bad about the situation. Help!

Yes, by far Bush is the worst Presidant I have ever witnessed or any democracy in the history of the world has witnessed. At least with Clinton you had an Evil Genious. Here, you have a stupid Demonic puppet for the corporate dollar. At least his father knew how to handle diplomacy. Bush the younger ... diplomacy? Please don't make me laugh. Impeachment is too good for Bush, in my opinion he should burn on the stake for the mass slaughter and rape of thousands of innocents. He has stolen and then shat upon the American legacy. It will take 100 years of American Integrity to rid this stain of hell from our record. There, was that clear enough for you? If you want, just do the research but I would not listen to fox for unbiased new, that is the reason Republicans tend to be so stupid in the first place.

In light of another shooting by cops, and the fact that I always hear politicians in the US,etc to talk about following the law, with great reverance. I just curious, specially from the early days of this nation, has the law ever been in the side of the powerless, immigrants, poor, minoritites, etc. Would that be a never, few times sometimes, all the time or always.
