Politics & Government - 21 February 2007

Forget about whether it's right or wrong to be in Iraq and think about it like this:

The US Armed Forces has had help from numerous countries that have already or are now pulling their troops. Some sent as few as 59 troops. A troop is ONE SOLDIER. 50 soldiers from Lithuania, I think.

Anyway, sending in a small force of men to work with the US Armed Forces would be one hell of way to learn details of how we operate making ANY WAR we're in an incredible opportunity for gathering Intelligence to be used against us later. And with the large number of different countries sending in a few troops, if they all banned together and they each knew our weaknesses......

This just crossed my mind and I'm not sure what to think about it so I ask you for your opinion.

What is to be achieved by this , MONEY ? The vaccine is too recent to be experimented on our youg girls!

I have just watched a news reports on British tanks in Iraq. Why do many tanks appear to have a metal grill attached to many parts of the bodywork? Is this a defense attachment or something to improve the performance of the vehicle? Many thanks for help from anyone!

Here is WI we have had EXTENSIVE problems with minority youth at a local upscale shopping mall. These incidents almost always involve guns and beating up on whites. Recently a mom's van was bashed over a parking spot and they beat up a white kid leaving on a bus.

BUT - every time a solution is proposed, it is called RACIST.

These are ALL minorities of the same race. The police are called to this mall 200 times a week. I shop there - but not anymore...

THREE other malls in WI in this area were closed FOR THIS VERY REASON - THIS IS THEIR NEW HANGOUT.
(Closed, Capital Court, Southgate, and Northrige if you care to check on this?.

How can we reach a solution if the RACE CARD is pulled at EVERY suggestion to fix the problem? This mall unlike the other 3 caters to more upscale customers so the youth do not shop there. They hang out (they did a study - it is not MY opinion).

And the news!!!! Why don't we just put a moritorium on it and get on with it..... it would be so nice!!!
How can we bring peace if we do not value it in our homes? In our own country? It seems so inconsistent.


Peace & Love

Since conspiricy means more than 1 person was involved, if you don't believe the events of 9/11 was a conspiricy you must believe that 1 person flew all 4 planes that crashed.
So for all of you non-conspiricy folks, please explain how it was possible that 1 person was able to fly all 4 planes at the same time, with no one else ever being involved in the planning & execution of the plane hijackings/crashes?

the military from screwing up my teeth when there is nothing wrong with them in the first place? I know they sometimes say there is something wrong when there isn't just to train new ppl.
I had a friend that this happened to. Everyone knows this.
I think they drilled a cavity in my mouth that didn't exist. Then I feel like they are using me as a guinea pig when I went in for pregnancy.

In Indiana they tried to pass a bill to make it illegal for people to smoke in a car or around children under the age of 13. Is this where the country is heading where every little detail of lifes deciscions come down to if it is approved by elected officials?

I live in Dallas, Texas. I got a speeding ticket. The officer clocked me doing 49 in a 35. I was not doing 49. I was admittedly doing around 40 because I had just looked down and took my foot off the gas pedal when the officer stood in the middle of the road to pull me over. Initially he issued a ticket with the wrong last name on it. I went to the municipal court to dispute the ticket. The clerk told me to see the prosecuter because she wasn't even supposed to issue me a court date because of privacy issues since the last name was wrong. The prosecuter said that there is enough information on the ticket to deduce that the officer meant to issue the ticket to me and since I still wanted to dispute the ticket, I was allowed to set a court date. What else can I do about this ticket?
