Politics & Government - 17 December 2006

I was sitting in the courthouse waiting to pay a speeding ticket.A man behind me was talking to his new attorney.Man:My first wife got me for a million,now this one wants a half million. Attorney:so why didn't you have your second wife sign a pre-nuptual agreement ? Man: I did, but now she's saying she did not understand what she was signing .Question : Should anyone get married if they had a lot of money to lose?

Every prediction/reason for NOT invading has become true. Destabilized Middle East, rise in terror recruits, sectarian violence, rejection of puppet government, resentment at being an occupying force, rejection of western "imposed" form of governance, quagmire, needless US troop dead, alienating allies, war profiteering.......etc yada yada yada......

As Colin Powell put it: "If you break it, you own it". IT IS BROKEN.

Bush is changing policy now for precisely that reason and has fired Rumsfeld as further proof. (If he was doing such a good job, why fire him?)

Either he was doing a lousy job, or Bush was just playing politics with troop lives and got rid of a good man for votes. One or the other. Can't have it both ways.

So why won't conservatives take ownership for their broken folly?

I think they are just digging a deeper hole for themselves. And our troops.

Immature, irrational, and deadly.

ruining the economy(if that is possible in Mexico) Now let's say those people are white, poor...unskilled and have about 7 children each. Most of them don't speak Spanish and don't want to learn. Now those people are demanding thier human rights based on being oppressed by the "brown" skinned Mexicans. I wonder if Mexico would give all those people Amnesty because they are better, hard working people than the average fat, lazy Mexican.....I wonder

food for thought STOP WHITE GUILT TODAY,,,, VOTE FOR REAL LEADERS NOT POLOTICAL WHORES

Did we have better generals back in WW2? Better Allies? More troops? Better strategies? Better leaders in Washington DC? Were the Nazis and Japanese inferior soldiers compared to the insurgents in Iraq?

My fiance has 3 kids from a prior marriage, 2 of them still minors. The kids were taken away from us over the summer because my fiance cancelled their trip (that was scheduled on his parenting time) to their grandma's. The kids were planning to go to grandma's and not come back because their grandma is rich and they have friends down there. Now, Christmas is coming, and 1 of the kids have accepted our apologies while the other is calling us stupid etc. The mother is constantly reminding the kids of how her relationship with their father was (it wasn't pretty, but he never hit, abused in any way his children, she couldn't keep her legs or mouth shut). She also tells them that he doesn't love them because he's barely there to see them... he lives in another state and working 80 hours a week to pay their child support, his rent, car payment, taxes whatever else you can think of. My fiance and ex always argue, pretty ugly convers. what will the friend of the court do in this case?

I heard it goes on what the parents makes, and what they could make? My sons father had a masters degree and a $25/hour job but chose to only work part time for the past 2 years. Now he owns his own business and im not sure how you even figure income when you own a business. He claims I would be lucky to get $400 a month for my son. My son is almost 2, and we are just now considering child support due to our not so good circumstances. Any information would be helpful, thank you!
