Just less than 2 yrs ago, I was in a wreck in Texas. My truck had no damages and I was not hurt. The other vehicle was from Louisiana. She & her son was not hurt. No police report was made nor did they go to the hospital. My insurance paid for her vehicle damages/rental of car. Today, I received a letter stating she is suing for mental anguish, pain, loss of wages, etc. Also for the child's pain. Can she do this? Do I need a lawyer? Help

Is it really a good thing that Congress doesn't debate the issue, no changes in policy occur, Bush has unlimited power, people like John McCain preaching psychological words of wisdom against any rebuttle against the president's plans like "vote of no confidence," etc. while maybe 35% of the country think more military operations and war in Iraq is the answer to peace in the region? This is something to be happy and proud of as an American? Americans should have faith in a government that operates to prevent change?

My husband is looking at taking a job at Fort Benning. Is this a nice base to live on or no? Has anyone ever lived in the housing there? We have two small kids and are also wondering about schools around there and things to do. Thanks.

Iran is threatening (if not already aiding) to help push the US out of Iraq.They are also illegally persuing nuclear bombs. The Chinese are backing Iran. They have more man power than anyone, and recently proved they can wipe out our comminication systems, and more.
Saddam Hussein was a madman, not unlike Hilter, and we were right to take his power away, the instability in the middle east is nothing new, and certainly cannot be blamed on Bush (or even Clinton.)
We must stand united against the evil of the world. That is what America must do. Can't people see that?
