Politics & Government - 8 December 2006

I have a friend in Croatia, who already has a B1/B2 visa till 2011. I would like to bring her here for a year or so so that she help teach my daughters the language and culture and also help out with childcare while I go back to school. She would be living with us and not attempting to work or anything. We would give her some spending money, but there is no real salary or anything. How long do you think she will be able to stay at a time, can she stay for a year straight, or does she need to leave the country after six months, which is something I have heard before, and no, i am not going through an agency.

It seems like many off-topic posts come back to Iraq. For example:

Question: I'm thinking of installing green drapes in my brown living room.
Lib Answer: How can you even THINK of doing that? DON'T YOU KNOW people are DYING in Iraq?!

No one is trying to minimize Iraq. It is a problem that must be dealt with. But today's question wonders if it is appropriate to finish a sentence that does not contain the word Iraq.

He has ticked off the conservatives for years. He supports amnesty for illegals. He has been a thorn in the side of President Bush. Conservatives vote in primaries and we hate McCain.

Also note that 2 of the 7 Republican Gang of 14 who impeded judicial nominations, lost reelection.

What makes him think he has a prayer at the Republican nomination for President?

FALSIFIED REPORTS TO POLICE, ANIMAL CONTROL, & CITY
HALL ARE EVERYDAY OCCURENCES AND WE CANNOT AFFORD TO HIRE A LAWYER, BUT THE SENATORS OFFICE SAYS WE HAVE A MAJOR CIVIL RIGHTS CASE IF WE CAN GET COUNCEL. HOW CAN WE FIGHT CITY HALL? City Hall has revoked our animal licenses because someone has rallied up a few friends in the area and complained with affidavits on my sons dogs. His dogs are sweet Staffordshire Terrior/Pit-X and they love everyone. It is a clear case of discrimination and these
few people have bold-face lied on a stand to get what they want.
My son is a newly heir to a home in Lake Highlands, Dallas, Texas
and these people are ruthless. The 2 women that concoqed the whole ordeal are stay-at-home & do nothing witches that try to outdo each other in reporting violations that do not exist. They have singled out my son because he had a motorcycle and that is not acceptable . How do we get justice and isn't falsifying reports
illegal? How do we prove innocence?

Back when america was growing up, every immigrant wanted to fit in, and they thus learned english, and got a job working in America and were proud to call themselves an AMERICAN! Now, people almost take it as an insult, they want to be called, 25% mexican, 50% african, and 25% Puerto Rican... WTF?

I married an immigrant and brought him into the USA on a fiance visa. We later married. But about 1.5 years into the marriage, he tells me "this is not going to work," and "I want you to help me get my green card to stay in the USA."

I feel betrayed becuase I put my life into making the marriage work. He emotionally abused me, telling me that I was fat
(I am 5'2 and weighed 150 lbs), needed to get a nose job, needed to get my cellulite removed...and that my parents should pay for everything. I cried almost everyday after getting married.

Should he get his green card? Should I help? Should I tell immigration that he did fraud with me? Should I try to make sure that he does not get his geen card?

You don't see it the other way around. Hmmmm. I think the conservatives are intimidated because the liberals make them doubt themselves. What do you think?

for identity theft! This might be just a tad long...please bear with me!

So back in the spring my mom borrowed $ from my g-pa so she could buy a car from his neighbor.

The cops just showed up @ the neighbors house today bc...she had work done on this car @ a local spot, before she went she took her tags off & put the ones that were on it when he sold it to her on the car, took it to the shop, payed with a credit card.

The place called & reported it (for whatever reason, still nto sure how they knew)...the plates came back to the neighbor, so they went to his house.

They told him that a this old lady that my mom used to take care of, who is bedridden called & reported that a credit card had been opened in her name & she didnt do it.

Well that was my mom. She has more than one card & has racked up over $12,000 on this ladies name. They just dont have quite enough evidence to prove that she did ALL of it. The cop said he would rather her just turn herself in,

Unfortunately, she needs to immigrate as soon as possible due to the situation there. She's in more danger as she's studying to be a doctor and is an intellectual. To go through a university system requires thousands of dollars which neither of us have. I want to do whatever it takes for her to leave the country as she's in danger. I'm unfamiliar with the process and I urgently need help! Thanks!
