by firing the originally planned all 93 US attorneys with eight?

This story will continue to gain momentum and not just because of Rove, Weh, Myers or Domeici. It is looking increasingly like the Bush admin wanted to purge disloyal US attorneys - a political move.

At what point do we as Americans say stop? We have seen the politicization of science (can you say Climatologists), the manipulation of Intel (Douglas Feith and his famous war spinning inside the Pentagon) and now the infection of the Justice department of partisan politics.

This isnt democracy. Its despotism where all opposing views or silenced.

When does it end?

The link to the loyalty to Bush as cause for termination...NY Times article.

My parents had their multiple visa in the US. While they were there, they applied a canadian visa and got it by the same day. Now that they were in the Philippines, could it be possible for them to use the same visa (canadian visa) to enter directly to canada without going to the US?

First off my brother drives a silver neon, well he has 20% tint wrapped all around the windows except the front windshield, there is only like two highway patrol that mess with him, and today when he called me he stated that the higway patrol officer said that this was the third ticket they issued which is $83, and that if he did not get it changed after this ticket they will throw him in jail for 24 hours min. and post bail if he wants to get out. well is that true? also they say that the two front windows have to be 35% so that the hp is not nervous when they walk up on ur vehicle but yet u can have it as dark as u want in the rear, does not make sense. also this 20% reads 14%, is that because it is baked on by his installer or what? I personally have 20% on my ride and always on the road and never get pulled over, because u can kind of see in my ride, but form 5 feet away my brothers looks like 5%, why?? does it have to with reflectivy % and what is that is it on all tints? thanx!!!

in my city certain poor neighborhoods are very dangerouse particurlarly black and mexican area's that is partly do to there unfair advantages that they have had to face over the years. also health care seems to be a big problem for the poor and middle class citizens. so my question is if the usa can send billions and even trillions of dollars to fight wars in two different countries and spend all the trillions of dollars elsewhere in the world. taking care of other countries but how can they not directly take care of our own citizens. i thought we were the richest country in the world right? why do i see so many poor helpless people everywhere? i mean think about it if the united states would giver every single citizen one million dollars which there are about 300 million cititzens in the usa that would only be $300 million right?
that is chump change to our country and i would think crime and murders wouldn't hardly even exist. i mean they have the means to solve this and they don't

Brutal tactics by some police officers to suppress civil rights protests during the 1960s led to calls for improved standards of police conduct and training. Have new standards of conduct and training ended brutal police tactics?

i just heard about the general pace incident and this proves to me that liberals are extremely hypocritical.

they demand he apologize for his remark about gays but give bill maher a free pass to voice his disappointment that cheney's assassination attempt wasn't successful.

funny how freedom of speech and tolerance only apply to what liberals agree with. anything they don't agree with, they demand an apology and a firing or even an arrest. but when some liberal says something as cruel as wishing death upon another human being because he doesn't represent his political beliefs, he not only gets away with it, he also gets applauded for saying it. and liberals say conservatives are nazis?

and don't give me that "he's a public servant" crap. so are all the leftist leaning politicians who spew their hatred and say nasty things about their opponents. where's your demands that they apologize??

Many times the customer is TOTALLY INNOCENT yet gets charged by this robotic, computer-driven system regardless. For instance, if someone gives you a check that is "bad" (i.e., a check not covered by funds in the maker's account) and you deposit it and write other checks against it on good faith -- all the other checks you write will bounce. This is due to no fault of your own, yet you will get charged as much as $31 for each bounce.

I suggest everyone reads this article if you have ever incurred insufficient funds in your account. The point of this is we as people are getting screwed by banks and NO ONE is doing anything about it.
