We all know about Dollar Bill Jefferson, you know the guy who had the Coast Guard take him by his flooded home in NOLA so he could pick up some cold cash from his freezer, but have you heard about Corinne Brown from FL?

Who bought and paid for this crook, perhaps the most corrupt member of Congress?

When you look at the current crop of candidates you find things in their past that have come to haunt them...everyone of them except Ron Paul. Since he became a political figure in 1976 he has remained true to the Constitution in word and deed in his voting and in authored legislation. He has no "bad" record to his credit. He is shunned by almost everyone in the House, and for good reason. He puts their feet to the fire, so to speak. So why not vote for someone who will stand up for what the "Founding Fathers" stood for when they established this great country on unerring principles? Conservatives and Liberals will find fault with him because he views the Constitution, as originally written, to be the rule of law as it was intended. That gives me even more reason to support him and vote for him. I personally am tired of the bastardization of the Constitution to fit the whim and whiles of any wind that blows through the legislature. If you have a better candidate, convince me.

This is quite obviously not the truth. Liberals do have an opposing view on how things should be done, but American death and destruction is not the aim. Why do you say these things? Is it a shortcut to thinking? A way too pass an opinion on matters that you will never take the time to even debate or discuss rationally? Those who have moved to these kinds of statements apparently have nothing important to say, because they have dumbed down their discussion to the point of irrational claims. Or...propaganda. Does this make sense? something similar could be said about some liberal claims too, but I'm quite personally offended to be accused of hating my country and troops.

The case is well known and most agree that he did in fact kill his estranged wife and Ron Goldman and was set free by an ignorant and biased jury. What are your thoughts on the case?

Think about how Americans reacted to the Vietnam and Iraq wars. I think the answer is clear...so why does Washington keep giving us war?

A bunch of politicians are on a bus ride. Humor me. They are all on the same bus. Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Obama, Newt Gingritch, Bill Oriely, and Ollie North are all on the same bus. the bus has an accident and plunges into a river.

Pull you over and not tell you why you were pulled over? I wa s in the car with someone who was pulled over (& arrested) we asked why and were never told. We ran no red light, there were no stop signs to roll thru, we werent speeding or swerving. I guess that brings me to my next question, are they allowed to run your license plates legally with no reason for doing so (I ask because i was told by one of my professors who is an attorney and a very good friend who is an attorney that they are not allowed to do it legally). Also, are male officers allowed to search and arrest women? Just asking because i'm not too sure how it works and before i move forward i would LOVE to get some info from a law enforcement official or an attorney who i dont know to see if there is any variation. I'm very shaken because it was a scarey situation, they had three cop cars behind us, one of whom was a DNR officer & had hands on guns . Hopefully i'll be able to file a complaint this week. Thanks in advane
