I would LOVE to hear a structural engineer say that burning jet fuel would not affect the structural integrity of a building.

But, have any engineers come out saying that the science behind the collapse is false? Or are engineers smart enough to know that the collapse was completely caused by the crash?

BTW I AM an engineer, and I DO know the planes could have caused the collapse.

It's a really long & sad story, but let me get to the quest. My sister is in the pen. She's a felon on mult. convictions & has a bf that's a convicted & wanted violent felon. She has been looking for someone to parole out to from the pen, but has been lying to our mother about the rules involving it continuously to her. Our mother had to go to the local parole officer to find out the real rules and regs. of paroling out to someone and refused since there's a 99% chance my sis won't follow them. Anyways, my sis & her bf have been trying to get our mother to lie to the parole board to help her get out (A felony on my mom if she did). It turned out this morning that they had went around our mother & decided to lie & use her ADDRESS AND CONTACT INFO for her BF. You can't parole out to a wanted felo. The parole board called me thinking I was him and wanted info. I told them the truth about this. I am scared he's gonna kill me or my mom. Which of the above should I get? Both? Help Please

When they are not even related or do not care about them. But continue to use them to advance their cause as if Native Americans were here just only yesterday. Why are people so content to dwell on 300 0r 400 years ago. If they so unhappy why don't they just move to a more suitable country since this one is suitable for them.

The permanent members are the United States, United Kingdom, Russia, France, China.

The United States vetos all actions pertaining to Israel. The United Kingdom and France helped dismantle the Ottoman Empire and pave the way for the creation of Israel. Russia pulled out of Afghanistan in shame but Russia also shares a long border with China. China was victimized by the Japanese and by UK colonization and also has the highest point in the world in Mt. Everest (the border with Nepal splits the mountain in half). Just looking for some thoughts.

Now they (Murtha, Edwards, and company) want to cut the military budget and funding so that they can truly create another "Vietnam" (and relive their glory days) and leave our troops underfunded and left lame in Iraq. How vile and despicable are those left-wingers that pretend to care about the men and women in uniform ?

I was just wondering what kind of food do recruits at Great Lakes and Parris Island/San Diego get to eat while at Boot Camp. I also am curious about that for students at the Naval Academy and Navy/Marine Corps OCS as well.

Earlier I posted a question that some took as some sort of propaganda.That was not my intention.It was an actual question,trying to solicit your views.

So,here we go again-I am of the opinion that George Bush should attend at least a few funerals of those who have fallen in battle.I didn't say in my earlier question that the President sends letters of condolence to the families of those who have fallen.I should have.

But the point of the question,which I did not state is: I think Mr.Bush,regardless of tradition,etc.should attend the funerals of at least a few of the war dead.In light of the recent scandal at Walter Reed and the Administration, attempts to implement deep cuts in the VA's budget,I think the President has an obligation to show he is not as disconnected from our troops as he appears to be.

I think that this would be the best way for him to do so.

I would like to
read your views on this.

Perhaps it is time to stop spewing hate at our fellow Americans and start uniting to work together to create a country we can all live in and be proud of.

I don't know too much about politics, but I hear these two terms alot, and I'm curious as to what they mean.

I have different viewpoints on different things, so I want to know if I am considered "conservative" or "liberal".

Or is it the opposite? enforces the pork barrel waste?

For instance , a bill can contain two opposite lines, Bush can chose the one that "suits" AIPAC against the voters choice, and cross the other line.
AIPAC lobby for a perpetual US presence in IRAQ
The rest of US Voters Oppose that Illegal wars.

It is a matter of historical record that Muhammad married a six year old girl and consummated the marriage when she was nine.

Google "Aisha" - - - almost no one disagrees with this.

It is a matter of historical record that Muhammad massacred entire villages for refusing to participate in his raids on OTHER villages to spread his religion by war.

Google "Guraiza" also spelled "Gurayza" - - - there is no disagreement that it happened, and only a few apologists try to muddy the record of what Muhammad's true motive was - - - most apologists admit that's what he did but try to justify it on the ground that the Guraiza Jews had promised to help Muhammad and broke the promise! That he massacred the village because they didn't help him in another raid is not widely disputed!

Whatever you think of any other religion, and whether or not you think a peaceful Islam is achievable despite its origins, these are the FACTS:

Muhammad was a pedophile.

Muhammad was a terrorist.
