The rest of the world hates us and we have no allies anymore. The National Debt is spiraling beyond control.
Civil Rights are being treated like Burger King where you can "Have it Your Way"
Over 3,000 Americans have been killed in a war without reason and that will have no end.
Is it too late of the Dems to save us?

The short of it is that in 2003, under the moderate leadership of Khatami, Iran offered EVERYTHING to the US.
They offered to cater their nuclear program to our demands of transparency.
They offered to cut off funding to Hezbollah.
They offered to help the US in Iraq.
The only request they had was that a terrorist militia called Mujahedeen Khalq be shut down, and relations be restored.
The state department was foaming at the mouth to make a deal, but Cheney, acting with the mentality of a 13 year old schoolgirl who refuses to speak with a friend who is trying to make amends was quoted as saying "We don't talk to evil"
I seem to remember Reagan talking to the USSR, and he called them the evil empire.

This ditch was built without an easement and the easement was obtained after. All the neighbors have signed but I havent. What can I do? It looks really bad and will cause MORE flooding problems. All of my neighbors also agree with me, but if they speak their mind to the city, they will not get their street plowed in the winter. What do i do!

how intelligent is the military when the soldiers who are unwilling to serve have to serve and people like me who have a criminal background, who want to be disciplined and turn their life around cant serve. my asvab score was the third highest in my school and i am in top condition yet i cant serve because am a violent offender. i want to go and "be all i can be" and hone my aggression into more benificial actions. so i say screw what the government wants.

A buddy of mine has a 2 year old little boy. It looks like he and his girlfriend won't be getting back together and that a custody battle is coming. She has told him that a paternity test is a required part of the process. How can that be if presumably nobody is contesting that he is the biological father? Does Missouri law actually require this, or is this her way of saying that a possibility exists that he really isn't the father? The little guy has his last name and he's been living with him all along. All this has him wondering now, and he's probably going to get a test regardless. I just find it hard to believe state law requires this unless
1. a man denies he is the father,
2. someone else comes forward claiming to be the father, or
3. the mother believes a man isn't the biological father
Can somebody shed some light on this?

It takes courage to say that you will not fight -- especially if you are a soldier. As more members of the U.S. military step forward for peace, the peace movement must step forward to support them.

Large numbers are now refusing to serve: The Department of Defense estimates that there are about 8,000 AWOL service members. The GI Rights Hotline (800-394-9544) is currently receiving about 3,000 calls a month.

Most importantly, a growing number of soldiers are speaking out, against the illegality and immorality of the Iraq war and the orders they are being told to carry out. These brave men and women are risking jail time and their futures to stand up against the war.

I just moved into an apartment two months ago, and I've been getting mail for someone who I'm assuming was the previous tenant. The return addresses for some indicate they are from an insurance company, another was a federal letter from social security, and there's a tax return document among others. I was throwing out what looked like junk mail with their name, but this seems important. I have no way of contacting the person, and they have not sent anything or had me contacted to retrieve the mail. I'm sure they dont know it's coming here. Is there somewhere I can take it or have it sent so someone can get it to them? Or should I just throw it out??

^^As above, just how many different production models of German-made Messerschmitt 109s were there? I'm not counting one off experimental models or foreign built ones, just variants that were produced in some quantity.
