People and News Papers the world over are writing stories about Bush losing money.

But no one is pointing out how good he is with a weed whacker. Only his wife Laura is standing up for George's ability to cut weeds.

I've always wondered how the formation of this Zionist Entity is valid on ANY front. Can anyone explain the ill-formed logic behind the founding of the Zionist Entity?

Last night I had one of the most frightneing experiences of my life. I got pulled over for having a broken headlight. The cop came up to my window and I started to explain why (that i got in an accident and havent had enough money to fix it yet), and he kept interrupting me, trying to accuse me of not telling the truth. I got pretty annoyed and asked him to please stop interrupting me. Then he said "don't give me attitude", and I said I wasnt and that I was just annoyed that he was interrupting me when I was telling my story. THen he told me to get out of the car and he was like "follow me" and walked to behind his car. He punched me in the stomach and then started kicking me when I was on the ground. THats all I remember. When I woke up, I was in my neighbors house and I guess they brought me inside when they saw me laying on the street. What can I do? I would like to find the cop who did this but I don't remember too well what he looked like.

The amout of money we spend on fighting drugs would help insure ppl and put some back into social secutity. For god sakes they outlawed a plant that never killed 1 peron yet they let alcohol and tobacco kill over 500 million a yeAR. I cant even get psdo-ephendrine without i.d. now.. What bs.

Protects the wrong do-ers like rapist, muders and child molesters?
How can one person change that and if so why aren't we changing it?

Ok I have a question to ask about jury duty. Now I have been called before but have always been sent home, I've been summoned again, and this time its during the testing week for most of my classes in college. I realize it would be against a law for a job to discriminate against me for searving on jury duty, but does that also mean that I my instructors would be required to give me make up exams for each day that I am forced to attend?

I really can't fail this course since it has not been offered in 2 years and it is the last course I need to complete my major for my degree. Thanks in advance.

Did these guy's really get a fair trail ?Border agents to be fired for testimonies Conflicting stories cited in shooting of smuggler
All three agents gave sworn testimony against Ramos and Compean for the U.S. Attorney's Office, which successfully prosecuted the shooting case in March. The three agents were given immunity in exchange for their testimony despite changing their accounts of the incident several times.

Both were unpopular presidents. Both were engaged in a war to save America from tyrants. Both had deep convictions. Both were Christian. Both were Republican. It was until Sherman took Atlanta, Lincoln's re-election was certain and if that did not happen the Democrats then were going to cut a deal with the Confederates. Lincoln was not recongnized until he died. I hope it does not take that long for Bush. Reagan was called brain dead and not up to the job, but he won his elections by a landslide. Reagan stared down the big red beast and the commies blinked. Bush stands up to terrorism. History will judge Bush as a great man.

I was fired because another employee told my supervisor he “might have felt threatened” by things I said to him. Do I have any legal recourse?

Background: I had been on medication for depression for about the last six months of my position in a large company. A co-worker had been coming in to my general cubicle area and making disparaging sexual remarks. This led to emotional interference for my getting my job done due to mental anxiety.

I have an outburst within a couple of days at which point a co-worker says “Did you forget to take your medication today?”

I confront this co-worker asking him in general “what his problem was” I was extremely upset over this due to the fact that I was on medication and this in itself for extremely traumatic for me.

Someone who overheard must have reported this to my supervisor, who proceeded to question this employee. The co-worker was led by my supervisor to indicate that he felt somewhat threatened by my behavior. Shortly thereafter I was fired.

Okay so here is my sad story. I was driving down Ortega highway which is a 45 mph zone then it changes to 40. There was a truck a little bit a head of me to the right. And he had a dog in the back bed. I had just heard about dogs jumping out of trucks and people hitting them. So I started to speed up to get away from the truck. So I’m almost to the onramp to the freeway and I get pulled over.

So I was thinking about telling the cop about the dog and how I was scared but I figured he wouldn’t believe me. So im figuring he clocked me rite when I was going around the truck with the dog. On top of everything I was late for a job interview and I think I may have been in a double fine zone. So I pretty much had a really bad day yesterday.

In the Palestinian problem, it was the state of Israel that drew the first blood and ignited the region into an armed struggle. U.S. backing of Israel since has been viewed by the Arab world as politically wrong.
Truman once stated something to the effect that if more of his constituents were Arab, the U.S. would back the Arab states.
Has this decision to back Israel to gain a popular vote proven to be a liability? Or, is Israel a worthy ally?

I thought it was great. I like the fact that he stands on his own beliefs instead of attacking Republicans. My whole family is Republican except me, so I hate it when politicians attack one another instead of standing on their own beliefs and convictions. He spoke of a united America and of giving America back to the people of the United States of America. He repeatedly said that a divided country could not stand against the challenges that we face today. I also like him because he is one of the only candidate running that voted against the Iraq war from day one. This gives him a decided advantage over Hillary and others who will have to explain why they changed their stance. This guy has a real shot, as I think his message will be something that Americans will want to hear in this time when we are so divided.
