I found that at least one top contributor is in it more to protect his colleagues and himself than to help in answering questions. We tend to give more weight to a so called top contributor, therefore they should be more professional or at least refrain from making light of peoples problems. Doe's anyone agree with this?Or am I taking it all too serious?

Gore electricity usage is up 15% since he wrote the book.

So, I guess he's all for polluting the world. But, at least it keeps coal miners employed. That's good. Right, Dems?

I am limited to the amount of Sudafed I can buy at the drug store now.
I have to show my ID, and drivers license and it's logged into a central computer to make sure I don't go over my "limit" each month, or I am a suspected "drug dealer".

But Mexican drug dealers detained in the US are turned loose if they are caught with LESS than 500 pounds..Ya can't make this stuff up!I'm sure someone is in hot water for not paying the bribes on time.Should Mexico give us our money back???????????????????????

In the largest cash seizure in Mexican history, authorities confiscated $206 million in U.S. currency from a band of methamphetamine producers headquartered in a ritzy neighborhood here, officials said today.


Two of the seven people arrested at the home were Chinese, and authorities said the bust hinted at the vast scope of an illegal drug trade that links Mexico to Asia.


...


Mexican drug trafficking organizations have become increasing important in the wholesale and retail trade in methamphetamines in the United States because American authorities have placed tougher controls on the sale of the chemicals used to produce the highly addictive drug.


Mexico's attorney general's office said the December seizure in Lazaro Cardenas led authorities to a chemical company, Unimed Pharm Chem, based in the city of Toluca, about 50 miles west of Mexico City.


"The resulting investigation showed that this company illegally imported pseudoephedrine acetate from India," the attorney general's office said in a statement. "These chemicals are used to illegally produce methamphetamines."


Mexican police raided the home Thursday in Lomas de Chapultepec, a neighborhood home to some of this city's wealthiest residents and to many members of the diplomatic corps.


Officials said they worked past midnight to count the bills, which were hidden inside walls, suitcases and closets.


The cash seized was mostly in U.S. $100 bills and weighed at least 4,500 pounds. It was five times the amount seized in all of 2006 by Mexican authorities in anti-narcotic and money laundering operations.

From my understanding the Church of England is a State religion. How does it interact in politics and how does this work in a country with multiple religions?

Annually...? Such tragedy continues to go without our politicians up in arms with each party attacking each other for incompetence? 3,000 approx each for the 911 and Iraq and just think of the slanderous things they call each other. Where is the outrage over our dangerous highway systems?

Every felon has broken a law and has been punished and paid thier debt to society but lets say someone is released from prison on burglary or murder there is no registry for them they hardly ever make the news unless they commit another crime and when they do thier past is never brought up. If you think about it the justification to themselves is the same no matter what type of felony i just believe that extra punishment for one type of criminal is wrong they should all be treated the same after thier sentences are over and as for reoffending the three strike law is the best idea three strikes = life without parole

White House staffers who dealt with with Jack Abramoff and the U.S. Attorney firings sent e-mails from outside addresses linked to the Republican National Committee (RNC) to circumvent the mandatory record-keeping system. Today, CREW sent a letter to Chairman of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA), asking for an investigation into whether the White House has violated its mandatory record-keeping obligation under the Presidential Records Act (PRA).

neighborhoods. I noticed the looks of the people as they walked by armed and armored. It reminded me of video from Vietnam when American soldiers walked into a village. They both know the "enemy" is there but which ones are they? We will no more defeat the "terrorists" than we did "charlie".
