In a Theocracy, Christianity would be US LAW & in a Democracy liberals make up most of the laws like the pro abortion, pro Gay Marriage, pro immigrants, anti prayer, anti military, anti war, anti religion laws. A US Theocracy would make Conservatives the ruling class of America. A conservative like Bush would be gauranteed to run US Govt forever. It would be like heaven on Earth. A completly reborn America never to be touched by the Godless liberals ever again. No more Nancy Pelosi's forever! No more Hollywood, no more liberal media, no more illegal immigrants. How could any conservative in their right mind want a US democracy over a US Theocracy? Why do you need a democracy when in a Theocracy you will get everything that you've ever wanted out of US Govt. & more?

In my state, an unmarried father has no custody rights until he goes to court and files for custody. So if he and the mother break up, he has to go to court to get visitation rights established. The mother is considered to have full legal and physical custody unless and until he takes her to court. Thus he is dependent upon her whims as to whether or not he gets to see his kid. If he demands to see his kid, she can call the cops on him.
Do you think this is right, and why or why not?
(Also keep in mind that he is obligated from day one to pay child support!)

My God. Im so sick of hearing this pathetic lie. You cannot "defend" American citizens from Iraq because Iraq had no intention of attacking us. You can only defend someone who is in danger from the entity that is threatening them. No threat, no danger, no defense They are fighting for IRAQI CIVILIANS and they are fighting for the Bush Admins corporate interests. There are billions of dollars of contracts that depend that this war continues in order to be paid out. Our safety on the other hand has absolutely nothing to do with this war. Please people. Dont be stupid. Get it right. Your thoughts? There..now its a question.

Hi people.I'm Iranian and I live in Iran.When I chat with people from other countries, I understand that they have totally wrong ideas about Iran.I just wrote this article to correct you.
The first thing they accuse our government of, is that they don't let you be free.Actually, Iranians would be some of the most free people in the world, since thousands of millions of strict rules in other countries, don't even excist in Iran.Our goverment tried to not to let western cultures influence ours, by prohibiting videos and sattelites, but in Iran every single house has one, so the government's agreed with having them.Currently, they don't provide high-speed internet, cos they think people may watch sextual and immoral films on the internet, however the highest speed in Iran at present is 128 k, but they're now thinking of providing 500 k speed.I know whatever our government says is for our own good.You know why? Let me give you an example:I suppose kissing in public is not forbiddon where you live, cos it's a part of your culture.But doing the same thing here is offensive.It's not that it's bad or something.You need to act according to your culture.People who don't, and have unreasonable behaviour that is considered immoral behaviour, are considered hooligans. Sattelite channels had a serious influence on people, now the way they wear clothes sounds like western countries, only there's scarves that don't don't seem to be worn because we're Muslems.People wear fashionable scarves to make themselves more attractive and most part of they hair is out.They do whatever they wish to, and some of the things they do, don't fit our culture at all, however it's now slighty normal in Iran, since people seem to have got used to such acts and behaviours.Most of the rules that seem not to be reasonable are abolished almost afer 1-2 years, because people really don't obey them.Whether those rules exist or not Iranians do whatever they wish to! You really need to pay a visit to Iran and you'll be surprised seeing that what you imagined before and how the real Iran is! It's wonderful, believe me.People, the Iran you knew, is related to at least 30 years ago, and now everything's so great.Even at that time Iran was not a bad country either, but many things have changed so far.
Some people think music is forbidden in Iran, but did you know that Iranian pop music has won the nobel prize in France?Iran's full of music nd they're all current pop music.The best you've ever heard, and in case you're curious to hear some, e-mail me and I'll send you some.
Oh, and some people think women don't have any rights in Iran! What would you tell me if I tell you that women are now overtaking Iran? They're treated very well, most of the times they're the winners in most cases: They get into the best universities, they get the best jobs, they've got rights that have made it difficult for men to marry them, because husbands seem to be under control of women and they have to buy them expensive things and treat them very well, otherwise women will have the right to divorce them, and then the husband'll have to pay them a great amount of money which most husbands cannot afford paying that amount of money! (so they can simply sit in the corner of prison! lol).Another rediculous thin: Your footage about stoning the women who have committed adultery.Have you ever asked yourself they relate to how many ears ago? 30-40 years ago? If this is true, then why don't you receive new footages EVERY DAY?How many footages do you have at all?1?2?or 3? Simple: because there's no such thing.First of all, what Quran says is just for whores who deliberitely commit that sin, not the ones who are raped by force.Second is that we know some women do that, but nowadays they don't seem to be under pressure and (let alone saying that they're stonned!!) that makes them dareful to do it over and over and it's not so pleasant I think.Is it? I don't think you could know our country better than ourselves! Plz understand that those footages are related to Taliban (freaks) in the Afghanistan not Iran, but I have difficulty making you understand that Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan are sperate COUNTRIES, and that we're Persian not Arab!
Some people think, Iran's a desert! People Iran's a modern country with very beautiful nature and lots of historical places to visit.Please take a look at the following links and see if Iran looks like what you think or not!
This is a photo of Tehran: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/79/Tehran-2-1600.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tehran

See how the media are fooling people? None of the things you hear on the media about Iran are true.So, please don't worry about us, cos we're really free.Ok?

I thought it's better to clarify some political matters as well:
Some of the Americans I chatted with (not all of them), said here in the U.S it's said that president Ahmadinejad hates the U.S and Israel and wants to nuck them!! Now, this is so odd, their media is good at putting comments, it's easy to show a video or an image of our president or leader on the T.V screen or on the internet and say he says this, he says that.....
First of all you should know that Iranians don't hate anyone, if our government complains about some injustice that's now going on in the world, it's not bad.Is it? Nor do we hate Jews, nor do we hate Americans.They're both nice people.If they're media is fooling them, it's not their fault.If I were in thier shoes, I would hate Iran too regarding all the terrible lies they keep hearing about it nearly everyday.Who says we want to force the others to convert to Islam?Have you ever found a Muslem that knocks at your door and asks you to do so?Who says we call Americans athiests?That's so funny, Christians and Jews are both God believers.We've never disrespected them.I wonder why the media like putting words in our mouth and raising hatred.In Iran, religion would be the least important thing, it means that where you come from and what you're religion is, are not important for us at all.And I wonder why some Muslim countries think there's a problem between Shittes and Sunnies, it doesn't make sence in Iran.
I wonder Iran is a threat to whom? How is it possible for Iran to nuke somewhere while it doesn't have any nukes?!!!(The media have never been intelligent liars).Has Iran ever attacked anywhere?Wasn't that Iraq that attacked us with support from you-khow-who?
Some of them say he said: Israel should be wiped off the map! But have they told you the rest of it and that why he's said this at all? If you know a little literature, you know that it's a passive sentence.He's never said that IRAN wants to wipe Israel off the map! Iran is ready to defend itself, but it's not an offensive country and we've got a lot of defensive weapons not offensive ones, while most countries have nukes and are clearly threatening Iran to nuke us! Good isn't it? Some say he's said: Holocaust is a myth! Ok, he's said this, but is saying it a crime? If 6000 Jews were killed, that's so terrible, but those 300000 Shitte Moslems who were killed by Seddam aren't important at all! (and who gave him those biological weapons?You well know that) When Fox News simply says: America and Israel can destroy and kill all Iran's 690000000 population (I saw this with my own eyes on the Fox News web-site), it's OK and no one says they're treatening other countries to nuke them, But...
Sorry, the list seems endless....

I advertised my puppies on the internet for sale, I had some people that wanted them but I had to wait for the money got here then send the pup out. when I got the bankdraft it was for the pup and shipping plus western union charges. I was to cash it, go to western union send the bal. to the currior and pay w.u. charges out of it. It was drawn on a credit union, that didn't have bankdrafts and if I had cashed it I would have been out ALOT of money It would have had to come out of my account since it was not a real bankdraft So I want everyone who may be selling things on line to WATCH for this. also where do I go to report this for justice!!!!!!

Bush set to announce troop buildup plans By JENNIFER , Associated Press.

WASHINGTON - President Bush will tell the nation Wednesday night he will send more than 20,000 additional American forces to Iraq, acknowledging that it was a mistake earlier not to have more American and Iraqi troops fighting the war.

Seeking support for a retooled strategy to win support for the unpopular illegal war , the president will acknowledge that the rules of engagement were flawed because certain neighborhoods in Baghdad were put off limits by the government of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, White House counselor Dan Bartlett said. "Military operations sometimes were handcuffed by political interference by the Iraqi leadership," he said.

Bartlett also said the Iraqis had failed to deliver on earlier pledges to commit more of their troops. "They (the Iraqis) are going to have more boots on the ground," he said. Still, The USA military will still lose like they did in Vietnam.

It's impossible for a fire to melt steel unless it is assisted by something like "oxygen/acetylene" Jet fuel or Kerosene does not burn hot enough to melt steel...look at the periodic table of elements. Also if the floors where the planes hit collapsed causing a chain reaction it would have taken well over 50 seconds for the buildings to come down. They came down at free fall speed....9 seconds. There is no logical argument here.
Explosives were preplanted in the building. Case closed! Why are so many people having a hard time accepting this?

do you not know that they have rules of engagement and that they have 7 rules they must go through BEFORE they shoot? Do you not know that while we are searching out the killers we are also doing humanitarian work? http://www.kmax.ws/b/goodnewsiniraq.htm

you are right we cant go around and find everyone that wants to kill but if we show the people in the middle east that there leaders are using them and exastrabating their problems they will side with freedom. It will take an overhaul of their understandings of the rest of the world to stop the terror. remember it took people like Martin Luther to stop the catholic inquisition. Someone of the people had to show the everyday masses that what is going on was wrong.
