About a month ago, my Social Security Card went through the wash. I hadn't thought about it for a while, but decided to go about replacing it a week or two ago. I mailed the application, along with a college ID, to my local social security office, and got a letter back stating that they couldn't replace my card, b/c i didn't have the right form of ID, even though they said a college ID will work. now the're saying that I need a state ID or drivers license, which I can't get without a social security card! how is it that you can order a copy of your birth certificate online, yet it is nearly impossible to get a copy of your social sercurity card.

No Iraq was already build and had the second to third best infrastructure before Bush came in, two they had a leader that kept all the clan in armony, or by force but in peace, those that refuse to obey or rebel were punished accordingly, and during the saddam period in power he punished less then those killed by Bush since Bush's invasion.. Schoo,l universities, water, electricity all destroyed by Bush in the name of oil,oil,oil,oil. Iraq had nothing to do with 911, which to the eyes of any body that went to school of engineering wheter civil or mechanical it is impossible that a plane take down an sky craper like the trade center much less two. and to manuver a passenger plane into the pentagon impossible maybe a war jet.!!!

Harry Reid, land shark?

L.A. Times Published January 30, 2007


If Harry Reid hadn't succeeded in politics, he could have done well in real estate. Actually, the Senate Democratic leader, who hails from Nevada, has managed both.

In 2001, he made $1.1 million on a Las Vegas transaction that got him some unwanted attention from the Senate ethics committee because he failed to report some crucial information on his financial disclosure forms. Now, we learn that he bought out a business partner in another land deal at a price that looks too good to be true and that he has sponsored legislation that would benefit that former partner.

Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., met with Ignacio Ramos, who was convicted in March for the nonfatal shooting of a Mexican drug smuggler. Ramos is serving an 11-year sentence at Yazoo Correctional Complex in Mississippi.

Tancredo said he was astonished at the injuries on Ramos' body, which he said did not coincide with reports from the prison earlier this week that described his injuries as "minor."

"His bruises were deep and severe," Tancredo said. "His arm, chest and back are black and blue with broken blood vessels on his arm. It was terrible." http://www.dailybulletin.com/news/ci_5200091
