me and my exhusband have been seperated for 20 months, we have been divorced for 7. (yes, that is how long it took me to serve him) he has not paid one dime in child support, his amount was determined 17 months ago by the courts. i was supposed to get every even year for income taxes unless he did not pay child support. MY REAL QUESTION IS, if he files for income taxes and claims our child, can he receive the child deduction and get money for her, if i have already claimed her??? that does not seem right that he should get money for claiming a child that he has never paid child support on. please help, thanks

Testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday, Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez said that American citizens do not have any protection under Habeas Corpus.

Gonzalez said there is nothing in the constitution giving citizens the protection of HB, and that the only mention of HB is the two conditions under which it can be suspended, invasion and revolution.

This logic left even the Republicans on the committee wide-eyed and stammerring. Sen Arlen Specter (R-PA) asked the AG if he was saying the government can take something away they dont have. Gonzalez repeated that there is no mention of citizens being protected bt HB, only when it can be taken away.

HB is the oldest concept in western law, going back to the Magna Carta. It prevents the govt. from picking you up, throwing you in jail, and keeping you as long as they want and not having to explain it. It prevents a dictatorship. And this guy says it doesn't exist.

At least he's showing us what Republicans are about.

Once you register to vote, but you don't show up on the election day. Is it a crime?

Todays's toll was the third-highest of any single day since the war began in March 2003, eclipsed only by 37 U.S. deaths on Jan. 26, 2005, and 28 on the third day of the U.S. invasion. U.S. authorities also announced two additional American combat deaths from Friday.

I think that if Americans can stop being so ignorent and dumb. They would relize that they voted for the worst president of all time. He will history as worst. With a Democrat in lead america will rise to a more poweful and smart country. There will less conflict over oil and global warming. All Bush wants to belive is his thoughts and not cold hard facts. Thats why we need a good leader like Hillary Clinton or Obama in office. This country is taking a giant step backward with the (R) in the Excutive Branch. People need to think about how bad this country came since Bush took office. There is more murders in the U.S. than any other country. Think about all the import there is in America. Everything practiclly made in China, Pakistan, Indoneisa, Korea. Instead it needs to be MADE IN AMERICA. There can't be any overseas. There needs to factorys. If the wealthy could just forget about all save a buck crap. They would feel 100x better and make more money. I hope this inspired&changed many.

Why is that? if a black person ran for president, he/she would get assassinated by a racist? A example is Dr. Martin Luther King.

And when will the American people hold him responsible for such deceptions as our commander in chief?

He is lying and people are dying.

With insurgency warfare like the kind Iraqis have figured out and used against us, we are ******, we need to leave and try a political solution to the insurgency...

Otherwise we have to kill all Iraqis. That is the choice and no American leadership has the gump to try the latter option.

DO you want Vietnam Pt. 2 or do you want to recognize that the enemy is our foolish, misguided, lying, frat-boy cheerleader from Yale, rich kid who in a spoiled and self centered way (because he is out of touch with reality entirely) ****** over our military and the country?

Get em out... Halliburton, Cheney, Baker III, Wolfowitz, Perle, CONDIE! HILLARY!!! all of these liars.

Save your kid, save your neighbor.

its over people. deal with it.

ok so the goverment is the one that prints out the money and destroys the money when it's to worn out and can't be used anymore. Why can't the goverment print out extra money to get out of debt, and to help the poor and help more with health care and shelters for the people who need it? I think that a perfect society would be one that everyone has a house paid for by the goverment( with the money that they can print out) and everyone pays their extra bills. Instead of raising the taxes and having use pay for hospitals and other health care iteams why can't the goverment print money to pay for it and get out of debt? I was just wondering if anyone knows the answer please let me know?? is there logic to this?

How big is the border? How do you recognize an insurgent? How many insurgents are from Iraq? You can't even secure the border between Mexico and Texas. You can't even keep out drugs and people from Cuba, Dominican Republic etc. You are now casing the Canadian border with drone planes as if that would any hinderance IF insurgents would attempt this route.
