Why can't they just let America be America instead of trying to make it Euro?

I recently got a $45 mail-in rebate from Trendnet for their Router+USB bundle. But today, I received another rebate of $45. I got two because 1 1/2 month after I mailed the rebate, I contacted Trendnet inquiring what happened to my rebate. I send them a picture of my receipt and then they mailed my first rebate of $45 over. Just then I discovered they had received my rebate stuff and they sent me another $45. Is it legal to cash the second cheque in? Should I? What would you do?

Is anyone familiar with this rumor ? That China has 3 Trillion dollars in US Currency government bonds and China said that it was going to switch over to the EURO and sell all its dollars, Of course this would be a disaster for the dollar and make it worthless. I have heard that China gets most of its Oil from Iran. So the USA told China if they do that, USA would bomb Iranian Oil fields so that it would cripple China's economy. Is this true ?

We have the technology, the ingenuity and the awareness to do so much. But do we have the will? We can cure many diseases and we can alleviate the symptoms of others but have made health and treatment into a for-profit business. We can explore distant galaxies but ignore our own planet. We saved the whales yet take no action against countries who flaunt the whaling ban. We are educated but our education system fails our children. We have harnessed the atom but don't use it for peaceful purposes. We detest crime yet we abide criminals. We work hard to take care of ourselves and our families but always seem to be back-pedalling. We have borders but they are invisible. We have laws but they are useless. We have ideas and thoughts and we keep them to ourselves (except to grumble on Yahoo! Answers!).

We KNOW how to solve our collective problems - so why the heck don't we?

It seems to me that Hillary was looked upon in a more positive light by Americans when she was being restrained by her parties leaders. Would you agree that the more America gets to know Hillary, the more America will reject her ?

Just wodering because i make a lot of remarks on George Bush's decisions on our war and other things that people focus on too much because news channels are focusing on 1 topic(ana nicole smith) rather than informing misleading people on our war. Such as the fact that some things that are blamed on our president isn't really his fault but people don't understand that. Plus, I'm not too much a Bush person but on some things i defend him with but others i don't and i usually make my unpatriotic remarks publicly rather than privatley such as at school and other public places. Thats why i wanted to know wheter or not it is safe to express my feeling rather than keeping the bottled up inside.

Bill Clinton: Stop Picking on Hillary
Bill Clinton has lashed out against an old ally, the New York Times, saying the paper wasn’t giving his wife Hillary "a fair shake.” At a fund-raiser for Hillary on Tuesday night at the Trump World Tower in Manhattan, the former president spoke for two hours and devoted much of that time to attacking the Times.

I was caught tampering an Off-peak car coupon and most likely be fined a maximum of 10k, looking at how all the previous cases had been dealt with. I have indeed learnt my lesson and would like to put this unfortunate incident behind. But I don't think I can make a lump sum payment of 10K. Can I pay through instalment? And how do I even qualify?

I would support a war if it resembled anything that was relevant, which I don't think the Iraq war is. But how come pro-war people equate that with not supporting our troops? Is it just semantic manipulation?

I believe as the Roman senate fought for controll of Rome and it's policies over the military, that greed and pride were the downfall of the greatest country ever
Our politicains would rather destroy this country than have a united stand against terror and imigration.
I also think you are crazy to want or have a baby in these times. They are the ones that are going to be forced into islam or whatever takes us over.
I believe a revoultion with one elected ruling Party, no dems or rep. just people voted in by the people.
A military run by the military, not these politcians to scared to enlist and try to run it from Wash. DC
A justice system where there are no life appiontment! 1 year on the bench and if you serve the people with the rule of law and not ones personal beliefes one can be re-apponinted.
Trade w/ china must start to favor the US
The US should withdraw from the UN and form another leauge of real friends.

Is There A Way To File A Harrassment Report Anonymously?
If you don't know my situation can you go back to my last question. My big problem with this guy is he's mentally unstable and I live at home with family (with three small children), but I go to school so I'm not there all day and I don't want to alarm them. I'm 19 years old by the way. Help please and yes I'm serious.

Plus if I call the police what can I say since it was my friend calling them and I'm the one who gave her his number.

In indesputeable truth of our American faith and devotion to God is a full frontal statue of Moses holding---what?--The Ten Commandments! Same ones so many interlopers on the American scene; who without alligence to our precepts, wish to attain success through the ethics that have brought our independence and established us as the greatest world power, yet--they wish to remove and have succeeded in many Court Houses across our nation to tear down reference to the commandments of God! Everything in Americas History is God, Christian, based in belief! All oathes are sworn on The Holy Bible.
James Madison, the fourth president of America, known as "The Father of Our Constitution" made the following statement:

"We have staked the whole of all our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self-government, upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God. What say you?
