When they pass a soldier on the street, do they thank them for protecting their freedoms and offer to buy them a beer? Or do they avoid eye contact and pretend not to see them?

I think they may be. I see them use the Gospel message of peace and love to promote hatred and war. That is doing the exact opposite of what Christ taught but doing it in His name. I believe that is the exact definition of anti-christ. Further they make all of us Christians look like lunatics and warmongers. Jesus is the Prince of Peace. Which prince to such folks serve? Peace be with you all and don't vote Republican.

Name the suits brought in the U.S. District Courts, U.S. Courts of Appeals and U.S. Supreme Court where President Bush was found to have exceeded his authority.

Don't let me hear crickets chirping from the uneducated Libs either.

Before the Supreme court right now, is a case where 19 year old Victor Harris refused to pull over for police, accelerating to over 100 mph, AND hitting a police scar in theprocess, along with wreckless driving, yet when bumped and his car was ran off the road and hit a pole, resulting in Harris becoming a quadrupolegic (unable to walk now), LOWER courts have ruled in favor that it was the police who were in the wrong here--for not letting him go, and using unreasonable force to someone who didnt have a criminal past.

Does this piss you off?

What laws are police to enforce then, if they cant get these idiots who run away off the streets?

How was law enforcement to know he didnt have a hostage with him, for not wanting to stop? What about the safety of the victim

Yet the lower courts ruled that unreasonable force WAS used here?

So does that mean if you are a bank robber all you have to do is accelerate past 100 MPH to get away?

This pisses me off does it piss you off?

Representation votin & government, checks and balances, recall, more diverse, more women, children's interests, get more people voting,set election dates, no patronage appointments, abolish the electoral college, do away with the crown influence, avoid lame duck periods, reforming the system, rewriting a constitution, term limits, impeachment, scandals.. All of these can be good or bad for democracy. How do we make a democracy the best it can be for a society?

sincle the top asain countires have space tech why are the thier reich and it's allies fumeing about it, iran's space prog is only for peacefull and defensive puposes. Thanks to Mother Russia that have helped countires like china, india to have space progs and now they have helped iran with thier space prog, with out Russia these progs would have been years decades away. Remember it was another nazi president called ronald reagan who started the star wars prog so it is that nazi u.s that should be refrianed from useing space as a battle gorund. India is going to launch a space mission to the moon next year all thanks once again to the mighty Mother Russia. Remember it was the new nazi's (u.s) that were the first country to use atomic weapons on civillian targets(japan) and also the first to use chemical weapons (napalm,phopherous,agent orange) on vietnamese civillians and are useing them still to this present day on iraqi's.

Are these Liberals "men" or are they hiding under their mothers' skirts. Why should the military be 60% Republican and just 7% Liberals. Shouldn't the Liberals put up or shut up? Also, should everyone rise up and tell the Liberals that they shall have nothing to say about military affairs until they stop acting like cowards and finally Man-Up?

Some think she's has some kind of psychological disorder. Others say she's just an immature kid, or she's just stupid, or she's actually a male using a female avatar. I think she's on dope. I would guess meth. What do you think her problem is ?

When Gerry Studds had sex with a teenage boy Page, Democrats re-elected him 6 times.

When Mark Foley had naughty emails with a Page, Conservative Republicans shunned him, but Liberals didn't embrace him even though, by definition, only Liberals can be gay or pedophiles.

Also, although Conservative Republicans shunned Haggard, once again the Liberals turned on one of their own constituents. Isn't that interesting?

There are really two essential parts to a leader:

1. Their "people" skills.
2. Administrative skills.

My question is, which is more important?

During the depression, FDR had a clear charismatic approach that inspired hope in people. Both he and Hubert Hoover were less than average administrators and Hubert was probably better. But most would agree that he was the better president by far. Being able to work well with others is very important as is being able to inspire hope. On the other side of the political aisle, we find Reagan in the same category.

On the administrative side, we have people like James Madison (wrote almost the entire constitution). He and other presidents were DOERS more than talkers, but often had trouble getting people to go with them. Washington was similar. Not terribly charismatic, he led by action and example.

Which is more important? Are they equally important? Does the circumstance matter and alter degrees of importance?

1. on the back of the licenses (drivers license or ID) do all states in the USA have the black magnetic information strip?

2. do any states have different colored licenses for drunk driving or other serious crimes?

3. do any states provide a thumb print on the license or ID?

Very curious....someone told me that all states have this info on the licenses and ID's - I have a license but it is not one of the newer versions - will be when I go to get it renewed. Thanks for your responses

Was power taken away from the states once Senators became elected by popular ballot rather than through state legislators. It seems the founding fathers did not intend for Senators to be elected by popular ballot. Would overturning this ammendment better even the balance between state and federal legislation?

The Senate and the House of Representatives shall each have an Electoral Tribunal which shall be the sole judge of all contests relating to the election, returns, and qualifications of their respective Members. Each Electoral Tribunal shall be composed of nine Members, three of whom shall be Justices of the Supreme Court to be designated by the Chief Justice, and the remaining six shall be Members of the Senate or the House of Representatives, as the case may be, who shall be chosen on the basis of proportional representation from the political parties and the parties or organizations registered under the party-list system represented therein. The senior Justice in the Electoral Tribunal shall be it Chairman.
