My sixteen yr old nephew has "fallen in love" with another sixteen yr. old girl. He has not been attending school. I think he feels that he could get the death benefit ($1,200/MO) and live off of that with his girlfriend. I guess my bottom line question is can he still receive the death benefit from his father if he is emancipated from his mother? We live in Alaska.

AUSTIN, Texas — Gov. Rick Perry signed an order Friday making Texas the first state to require that schoolgirls be vaccinated against the sexually transmitted virus that causes cervical cancer.

Is this what our society has come to?

Am I supporting terror by selling bomb making guides?

I sell bomb making, money making and loads of other ebooks online and have never really cared about who reads them. That was untill someone named abdullah bought one on how to make pipe bombs. Noticed the name in paypal.

He paid fast and I sent him the ebooks, but then started to wonder why he had that name. I always think terrororists know how to blow stuff up and where to get guides free without paying for them. I would not mind if some hothead decides to blow stuff up with my guides as long as its away from my property. Someone called abdullah buying me guides propably thinks I am a kuffar, or whatever it is.

Seems to me the people who haven't attacked anyone in 250 years would be the good guys.
And the people who can't stop killing would be the bad guys.

The New Front: Iranians in Iraq
By: Nicole Belle on Monday, January 15th, 2007 at 6:49 AM - PST
We all remember in the months following 9/11 how the nomenclature changed. Sneaky, almost imperceptible if you weren't paying attention (and polls at that time showed that most people weren't), the dialogue changed from Al Qaeda and the Taliban to Saddam and Iraq. And we know where that got us: two miserable failures for wars. *

Does Yahoo! advocate liberal viewpoints through Answers?

Yahoo! staff members recently removed some of my questions because I was critical of liberal ideologies and opinions. They canceled my account without notice after 7 years of being a daily-login user! Then I threatened to file suit against Yahoo! for freedom of speech violations, whereupon was I reinstated. The whole fiasco was an act of religious intolerance. Thanks liberals.

But they haven't deleted my questions for a long time, I think, because they are afraid. But it begs the questions: How many other users have had their questions deleted like I have? Have you noticed a liberal bias in the Answers "political" category? Well, I have. I was just wondering if others have noticed the same. Since I believe most of you have noticed it, please utilize Yahoo! Answers to get to the heart of the issues at hand, to question liberal media wherever they may be, and to ask more challenging questions of liberals and their cohorts.

Can Congress stop the war?
Lawmakers have the constitutional authority. What they may not have, however, is the will.
By Jonathan Turley

Over the next week, Congress will vote on a non-binding resolution denouncing President Bush's decision to send more troops to Iraq. Many people have already noted that with thousands of dead soldiers and hundreds of billions of dollars lost, Congress might be able to manage more than a legislative "Dear John" letter. Yet, if you listen to the president and some Democratic leaders, Congress can do little to stop the hemorrhaging of lives and treasure.

I found out on line a rapist has just moved near my mom. He is a high risk offender. I do not want that kind of filth living near my mom. He must be living with his parents, since my mother lives in a nice neighborhood. Sad thing is, my mom does not own a gun or probably ever will. I am going on leave soon and I want to run this guy out of that neighborhood. Any tips?

The Crime of the Century

by Paul Craig Roberts
President George W. Bush's invasion of Iraq is the greatest crime of the 21st century.

Armed with a powerful moral case against Bush, whose lies are responsible for a war that has caused thousands of U.S. casualties and killed vast numbers of Iraqi civilians, Democratic leaders are damning Bush's war because it did not succeed!
