I recently bought all leather boots for my BDU's. How is the proper way to blouse them with the pants? Do you simply tuck the pants into the boots...or is there more that must be done. Any answer will be greatly appreciated.

Guaranteed that the answer with a valid source will be promptly chosen best answer.

Thanks for any help.

Does anyone else find it ironic that she would choke military spending in Congress but insist on wasting military resources to further her political endeavors?

OK, I really want to know because I am confused.

You talk about how much you love your families and how much you love your country, but so many of you leave family and country the minute you get a chance to come here. I hear from so many immigrants that they are only here to make some money so they can build a house and start a business and then go back to the country and family they love so much. But when they get the money they do not leave. They build a big mansion in Mexico and pay someone to open a store and still they don't leave. Their kids grow into teenagers crying for mom and dad and still they don't leave.
So, I ask you, actions speak louder than words. From your actions, you show us that what you really truly love is money. More than family and more than country because you give up both to get it. I've seen immigrants rent out closets as rooms and sell their kids toys for money. I've seen them steal from thier own brother for money. Sounds like pure greed.

...in order to justify their own feelings of national inadequacy? I personally have nothing against America, have very good friends there and love to visit the country. I do, however, disagree with their unfair and archaic electoral and political system that keeps the power in the hands of the few very rich, and allows them to act as the bullies of the world in arming the smaller countries for profit and then invading when those countries use those arms. And before anyone uses the "overthrowing of inhumane regimes" excuse, how come there are no US troops in Zimbabwe? I know why - they have no OIL!

How The UAW Sent The Big Three's Jobs Overseas
Very few businesses that are inflexible survive. And, the UAW may be called a union, but it is a business. And, for years it did well. The Reuther years. The UAW got its members pay packages, healthcare, and retirement deals that were the envy of the balance of organized labor.
The first writing on the wall that the Big Three could not support huge labor costs indefinitely came in 1973 during the Arab oil embargo. Fuel efficient cars became important, and from that point on were a permanent part of the US auto sales landscape. The Japanese manufacturers had their foothold.
Gas guzzlers got a reprieve as fuel prices dropped and stayed down through much of the 1980s and 1990s, but it was clear to the oil and car companies that cheap gas had seen its day. The demand for oil was too high and the supply of easy-to-drill oil was dropping.
As circumstances continued to benefit the maker of smaller cars, Toyota's revenue rose from $114.1 billion in 2002 to $186.7 billion in 2006. Over the same period, GM's revenue went from $186.7 billion to $192.6 billion.
The UAW did not let up in its demands for better wages and benefits. By 2003, the retirement and healthcare burden per vehicle sold in North America was $1,360 for GM and $180 for Toyota.
And, expensive gas returned with a vengeance. As the Japanese gained market share because their cars were viewed as better built, high fuel prices hit the US car makers with a second punch. Between 2000 and mid-2005, 100,000 hourly workers were dropped from the Big Three work force. The job cuts continued into 2006, as Ford (F) and GM (GM) bought out ten of thousands of workers.
Could all of the jobs have been saved? Perhaps not. But, labor cost disadvantages dropped GM and Ford to the brink of insolvency and the UAW has allowed tens of thousand of jobs to be eliminated or moved overseas.
Some level of flexibility on the part of the union would have helped the car companies. The union argument is that concessions would drive up profits, but, if there are no profits, the logic is academic. Making better cars and introducing new models might also have been a by-product of lower labor costs. It is harder to spend money on quality control when there is little money to spend.
The UAW made a huge amount of money for its members for several decades, but it is currently in the process of putting most of them out of jobs.
Blame the management of the car companies for not being better prepared for the environment that helped Toyota? Yes. Blame the UAW as well.

No matter how many people you kill, you have a right to marry your loved one while serving time in prison. On the other hand, if you are gay, even if you are a wonderful exemplary citizen who has never been arrested, you CAN NOT marry your loved one. Is that OK?

I have 2 judgments against her.....one is for her rehab bill of about $8000 and the other is child support arrearage of about $3500. I was thinking that I could place a lien on her only asset, her vehicle, which is paid for (I signed it over to her in the divorce). I know that liens have to be "perfected" but I think this is, since I have the court actions to prove it. I just cannot find any links on Google to provide any info. If you have info about other States, that might help me also. Thank you in advance!

The trustee (my Aunt) and her lawyers (Yep, 2 of 'em) have sent me an accounting of the estate. But I can see some things that just dont add up and cant get any answers. Of course I dont trust them and they really dont care. So what should I do. Hire a lawyer and if so what kind? Or should I hire an investigator. The estate is complex with investments and is worth at least 2 million to my knowledge, but I really think it is worth more. Thanks.

I have been Republican since I first voted at 18 years old. The only time I ever voted for a Democrat ended up a huge mistake as his dealings ended up in my electricity bill being raised a full 75% last July. Never will I make that mistake again.
My problem has always been that although I basically find nothing attractive about the Democrat party line there are also a few things that the Repulicans always stick to that I do not favour. These include their stance against pro-choice and stem cell research.
Now the Republican party has a potential candidate who also does not completely follow the party line which many say will be his undoing and the reason he will not get the nomination. I see that.
Does anyone think that he may follow the likes of Lieberman (apologize for mispellings) and declare himself Independent?
If so, would you consider voting for him because he would not restricted by the party line?
