My boyfriend just got out of prison 11/11/06 an On 02/02/07 he was arrested for a parole violation. I went to see his Parole officer yesterday and he violated him because he was never able to verify his home add as that being where he lives. Heres the problem, the parole off went a couple times to the house in the morning/afternoon and those times my boyfriend happened to be at work or he happened to be with me at my house. He told his parole officer when he talk to him and told him he wasnt there when he went because he was at work, and told him that he didnt know he was coming or he would have home and his parole officer was told this info from the first time he showed up and my bf wasnt home, and my bf told him to either come by before 6 am or after 6pm or he can let him know when he is going to be there so he can let his boss know and he can get another tech for the job. what can he do to get this cleared up, the p.o. is being a jerk cant I write the parole board or something?

Iran has a much larger population than the U.S. with a much larger standing army

One day, Iran invades through Canada and quickly overruns the U.S.

As an American citizen, what would you do?

Why do people decree "State Sovereignty" a reason for not deposing Saddam ??
The most ridiculous argument an activist or diplomat can make in defense of a dictator like Saddam Hussein is that the tyrant cannot be deposed because of his nation Sovereignty. The notion that America did not have the authority to overthrow one of the worst dictators (over 1,000,000 civilians killed during his reign ) that ever walked the face of the earth because of state sovereignty is absurd.

Based on that logic : Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, Kosovo, Bosnia, Rwanda, Sudan are unable to be touched because they too are sovereign nations.
The genocide in Rwanda, for example, has been mourned theatrically in retrospect – Europeans especially will weep over corpses, but will do nothing to protect those still alive. In America we call this cowardice!

The sole purpose for any government is to protect its citizens. A state that kills its own people has no legitimacy! NO MATTER WHAT THE TYRANNT RIDDEN UNITED NATIONS SAYS. Knowing what we all no now about the mass graves and torture chambers, WMD attacks, and countless other severe infractions of” international law”, how can any moral person state that Saddam should have been left alone?
Sovereignty cannot be an excuse for uninhibited savagery. Saddam was a HITLER to his people. People who objected to the removal of Saddam Hussein’s regime on grounds of state sovereignty are the moral descendents of those who looked away from Hitler’s crimes. The difference today is that those who condone mass murder pose as moral arbiters and demand to know what right America has to decide which governments are tolerable and which are not. The answer is simple. “When the forces for good fail to act, the forces of evil triumph.” And America is the worlds essential force for good. No amount of fashionable anti-Americanism will change that. And though we may not always have the blessing from the rest of the world to depose dictators, tyrants, murderers and terrorists we will surge forward and do what we know is right. The world will be better for it.

We must not fear to act when action is necessary, moral and possible. Whenever the situation allows we should act in concert with our natural allies and those apprentice states moving toward mature freedom. But when we are forced to stand alone in a just cause, we must not hesitate…Let history judge us.

My husband took my son to Supercuts and the person that cut his hair also cut my son and left him bleeding right behind his ear. Now my husband didn't notice it. He just quickly glanced at his hair from the front and paid the lady and even tipped her and then they came home. Once they got home I ofcourse inspected his haircut, (just as any mother would) and was upset to see that he had a glob of blood that was beginning to crust right behind his ear. It was only obvious she had cut him with the clippers. My son is very bashful. As a matter of fact he is the type of person who gets very quiet when he gets hurt. He keeps it to himself. So I'm really not surprised that he didn't say anything while they were still there. I just couldn't believe that she never mentioned it at all. She even took a tip. I would have expected her to have let my husband know so that it could be cleaned and tended to right away. How many others has she cut with those clippers? What about aids? Can I sue?

I mean, rather than just legalizing all the illegals every 20 years...and worrying about immigration at all.

It would be like, regardless of everything else, if you were physically in or owned property in US territory you'd effectively be a US citizen. You could vote, get benefits, but you'd also have to pay taxes, etc.

Can someone explain what winning a Presidential Primary is? I read about it all the time and really have no idea what it means! Who votes in the presidential primary of a state? I had read that RFK won the California Presidential Primary before he was assassinated, and it was considered a 'major victory'. Who is it against and who decides who wins?

Another helicopter down in Iraq.- 7 die. According to the U.,S., Iraqi insurgents have used heavy machine guns, rocket-propelled grenades and shouldered-fired SA-7 anti-aircraft missiles throughout the conflict.
U.S. officials believe Iran is supplying Shiite militias with new weapons including more powerful roadside bombs, Katyusha rockets and a newer class of RPGs.

If this is true, where then does Iran get these weapons? Do they manufacture them themselves? Where does "newer class" of RPG's come from? As a matter of fact, doesn't Israel have them? My research tells me that these RPG's can be brought from just about any country, and that their availability is NOT limited to Syria or Iran.
And how in the hell do these weapons get past U.S. controlled checkpoints?
