One states that an unborn baby is not worth anything and can be disposed of without reguard.

The other one says that killing an unborn child can be punishable by a (second) charge of murder.

Both are laws, but the both clearly contridict eachother. So which is it?

If a man attacked a pregnant woman and killed her, he would be charged with (two) counts of homocide.

But if someone wants to murder their baby. Oh it's fair game..Its ok if the mom wants to.
But what about the father? Can the father charge her with homocide of their infant? Is it not his baby just as much hers?

So who is right?
The Unborn Victims of Violence Act?
or
Roe vs. Wade?

Why not give the choice to the landlord rather than try to change a culture from the top. All that will happen is that the small pubs will close down and the off liscence sales will climb - UNWORKABLE AND DUMB!

Some man wants to sue me, saying that I told people lies about him, BUT all I did was tell the truth, not one word I said was a lie. How do I go about defending myself from all of his NASTY email, and treatning phone calls. What can I do, besides calling the police, he harrasses me constantly..

CAN YOU TRUST THE GOVERNMENT NOT TO CHANGE THE ROTH RULES DOWN THE ROAD?

by Andrew Schwartz, CPA

Since graduating from college in '87, I have been a practicing tax accountant. On more than one occassion, I have seen the government enact legislation that reversed some of their previous tax breaks. How confident are you that the government won't find some way to tax your Roth accounts down the road?

The first reversal I observed was back in '97 when the government increased the percentage of social security benefits that is taxable from 50% to 85%. Don't forget that you can't deduct the social security taxes you pay into the system each year, which means you'll be taxed twice on any "benefits" you receive. When social security was first introduced, none of the benefit was to be taxable.

See other two reversals:

Definitions of lie at Dictionary.com. ... 1. a false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive; an intentional untruth.

Those who just want to rant, save your breath, I've already heard from you more than enough.

I am looking for anyone that can DOCUMENT a lie that Bush has told.

Documentation that refers to persons "opinion" won't count.

Only references and documentation that demonstrate the definition above will count.

I am not interested in the normal everyday practice of political speech as practiced by both democrat and republican.

List the things that Bush has said that he had proof positive knowledge BEFORE he said them, that they were not true.

If he is a liar...let's have the proof please.

This president seems to think that the congress is playing politics when it comes to ending a war that is unpopular. He seems to be very angry now that he no longer has control of both houses of congress. Why does Bush think he is King of the United States and does it have anything to do with the cheating in Florida during the 2000 election?

In the criminal law, a conspiracy is an agreement between two or more natural persons to break the law at some time in the future, and, in some cases, with at least one overt act in furtherance of that agreement. There is no limit on the number participating in the conspiracy and, in most countries, no requirement that any steps have been taken to put the plan into effect (compare attempts which require proximity to the full offence). For the purposes of concurrence, the actus reus is a continuing one and parties may join "the plot" later and incur joint liability and conspiracy can be charged where the co-conspirators have been acquitted and/or cannot be traced. Finally, repentance by one or more parties does not affect liability but may reduce their sentence.

Ok having said that doesn't everyone who supports abortion be charged with Conpiracy to complete first degree homoicide?

That would be a 30 year sentence and possibly a death sentence and or life sentence without parole.

My brother has a Last Will & Testament written in 4/02 leaving ALL property to a particular person, a previous significant other, (whom he has had little to no contact with in the past 3 years). My brother commited suicide recentley leaving behind a holographic will that was written in his own writing, that is dated and signed. This holographic will names beneficiaries, including myself (I am his only living next-of-kin). Question is this: Does this holographic will take precedence over his prior legally written Last Will & Testament?

Why do so many people think he would be a bad candidate? Is it because he is not white? Is it because he is Muslim? or is it because he was one of the few people in Congress willing to step over that party line and work with people to do what is best for the people and the country?

I mean how bad can it be to have an open government where we the people get to see where the money is going? What is so wrong with cleaning up all this earmarked money? Why is it so bad to have a compromise in the Iraq situation (give a deadline to pull out with a provision that if Iraq actually meets the benchmarks the GWB administration set, that deadline can be extended) I mean isn't that all just trying to get some accountablilty into our government which clearly it has been lacking and yes it has been lacking far longer than GWB has been in office...

Bush bypasses Congress and names Fox to post
By Jennifer Loven, Associated Press | April 5, 2007

WASHINGTON -- President Bush named Republican fund-raiser Sam Fox as US ambassador to Belgium yesterday, using a maneuver that allowed him to bypass Congress, where Democrats had derailed Fox's nomination.

Whenever I see a protest on the news, the protesters are burning US flags and protesting fellow Americans. I respect their freedom of expression, but I wonder why we never see any "Anti-terrorist" protests. I'm sure they're thinking, "Well, America is the terrorist organization we're protesting!" But what about the terrorists who are targeting Americans? Why don't they organize rallies to condemn their actions?
