Maybe we are going to build up the amount of troops in Iraq to invade Iran, is this possible? I have read in the papers in the last week that some more ships are headed for the gulf. Is this also part of it?

We rent a house in the country. The landlord's cousins have been driving into our yard to access a woods behind our house. The woods are not their property nor the landlord's. They have chewed up our yard by getting stuck in it and having to be pulled out. They said they would come fix it. 30 foot ruts. They haven't yet, been a couple days. We ask the guys what they are doing, they tell us. Then the next day, landlord comes over, says the guys have her permission to be back there whenever. We don't want them driving thru our yard and tearing it up. We don't like them just showing up whenever and coming thru our yard. Does the landlord have to give us notice when they are coming? We have a signed lease, of course. Can we get these guys to quit coming thru our yard? There is no other way to get to the woods, and all that's back there is junk they are stealing. What can we do?

Does anyone think it is dangerous that police officers are basically above the law? You can be arrested, shot, charged with a crime, whatever - for no reason at all. It only comes down to their word and any claimed "suspicion of guilt." Does the system need change?

I have visited the Virgin Islands recently and read that they do not vote for the president and such. If they are also U.S. territory, why don't they vote?

The house passed "Pay-go" in it's first day. The vote was 280-152.
48 Repubs. voted for it. In the past 5 years spending by Republicans has ran up a $9 trillion debt. I think it's dishonest for Republicans to pass a spending increase and not tell Americans what they will cut to pay for it. That was the old Congress. Now if Bush wants $100 billion for Iraq he must now say what he is willing to cut to get that increase. That is good for those of us that are really the Conservatives. If Democrats want to increase spending on Health Care or Student loans they must tell Americans what they will cut to get the new spending.

Is it okay if you have the same political beliefs?Please don't say someone else does it worse. That gets old.
If you don't believe the facts aren't distorted and lies aren't told, do the research at unbiased sources.
Are lies okay as long as it is what we want to hear?
Of course both sides do it, but no one does it as well as talk radio.

Do Police officers and FireFighters an etc have to use codes?

Such as "10-4", "10-20". Would they get in trouble if they just said what they wanted to say instead of stating the codes?

My son went into basic in August and graduated in October. He is now in AIT in Maryland. He said that he has some curvature of the spine and looks like he has some degeneration in his hips. I don't even know what all this means yet. He is supposed to get an MRI next week that will help determine what to do. May need surgery, but we have no clue right now. What can we expect if they want to seek medical discharge? What is the process and what about benefits for him? He is very disappointed with this news. Any info would be helpful.

I.E. - Invite academics from every subject and from every country to attend instead of letting countries choose their representatives because they will invariably send hard-nosed politicians that only care about protecting their particular country's interests.

so we got a flat last night b/c it was dark and rainy and we drove into a pothole was really big and gave us a flat tire.

when we pulled into the first parking lot after the pothole, there was another guy already there who had just also gotten a flat. The same thing happened to him that happened to us. The pothole is huge, the area is not well lit, and with all the rain, there was no way to see it coming.

should the city pay for our new tire, since they are responsible for keeping the roads drivable? How does one go about getting the city to pay for it?

Iraq's prime minister said Saturday that Iraqi forces would launch a new effort - with U.S. troops in a supporting role - to wrest control of Baghdad's neighborhoods from militias and other sectarian killers.

Iraqi forces were to begin a neighborhood-by-neighborhood assault on militants in the capital this weekend, even before the White House announced a long-awaited new strategy to contain Sunni insurgents and Shiite death squads.

"The Baghdad security plan will not offer a safe shelter for outlaws regardless of their ethnic and political affiliations, and we will punish anyone who hesitates to implement orders because of his ethnic and political background," Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said in a speech at the 85th anniversary celebration of the Iraqi army.

If you are convicted of a misdemeanor (as opposed to something like DWI), are there any longer-term implications? I.e., do you have to disclose it to a prospective employer, a landlord, etc.?

A strategic opportunity presented itself when deep social antagonisms began to threaten America's stability. The ILLUMINATI fanned the sparks knowing that they would reap a golden harvest if they could divide the North and the South ideologically and then prod both sides into a protracted and bloody civil war.

It is not to be doubted, I know with absolute certainty, that the separation of the United States into two federations of equal powers had been decided upon well in advance of the Civil War by the top financial power of Europe. -- OTTO VON BISMARCK, Chancellor, Germany.
