Consider that if the above proposition fails, the Americans will have no body to elect to goverment to do what the electorate want. What does that say for democracy in America in 2007?

I know the answer to this question. Just polling people to see who knows the difference and what they are? Is the USA a Republic or a Democracy?

My trashy neighbors have this huge trailer right behind their house. It can get really windy here, and the other day a board from their trailer crashed into the awning of my house and made a large dent. They leave their junk out there, and whenever it's windy, their stuff just blows into everyone's yard. There is no reasoning with these people. What can I do about this?

The temperature of jet fuel fires do not exceed 1,800°F under optimal conditions

Underwriters Laboratories certified that the steel used would not lose strength in a 6 hour 2,000°F fire.

The melting point of steel is about 2,700°F.

When I asked this question an hour ago three of you answered me with a question.
I was unable to address your questions because none of you allow email contact.
So tell me this.
Why do you ask questions but not allow answers?
Doesn't that seem just a little stupid to you?

Infringing on the constitution--which he took an oath to uphold by the way--with the enactment of the Patriot Act and the 2007 Defense Authorization Act.

Invading Iraq without UN approval ---all the time using the UN's sanctions violations by Saddam as their justification for the invasion! (So every other country should follow UN rules but US)

That's just what I can think of now!

Some of the more right wing answer gurus here have posted that the 46 million Americans without health care may be in that situation by choice and are waiting for the government to bail them out. I think that is a self centered insulated point of view.

So have you had an honest American friend or family member who by no "choice" of their own suffer a serious illness or loss due to no healthcare?

Please tell me why--without citing her 'experience' of being first lady. She was NOT president--she was an OCCUPANT in the white house. Her only contribution during the administration was a failed health care plan--ravaged with scandal. Bill barely mentions Hillary in his memoirs and Hillary herself does not boast of any white house accomplishments in her own book. Now she is claiming to have been a major player in her husband's presidency as if her 'role' slipped BOTH their minds while writing their respective books. So given that she doesn't have the 'experience' what are you basing your decision on? Gender? Do you really think Hillary will 'share' her presidency with Bill and you will have HIM back? This is a serious question--why???? I can't come up with ONE reason to vote for her. Enlighten me.

What else defines you as conservative republican besides being against gay marriage, abortion and for the death penalty?
Is that a "religious value"?..... Because I am atheist and I am against gay marriage, against abortion and I am for the death penalty as well.
what about greed, bribery and militarization? is that a religious value? Can you point out to me where that is in your gospel?

When in fact they would never win an election anywhere if it were not for the uneducated, welfare dependant, minorities.

Any dem that sees this will say the same about white trailer trash. However, it is a known fact that most "trailor trash" still have jobs.

I decided that we should only support the soldiers who are in War but questioning the judgements of Bush and the illegal War. Because I noticed that there have been few so called war veterans, soldiers who are gung ho about the war and how they say Bush is God or what not. So I decided that if they want to fight and go die for Bush then why should we feel sorry for them?

intersections to incourage the people to become an inviro-

Did you know, for instance, that never before in the history of the world has a steel building collapsed due to fire? Yet on 9-11, three of them did just that in seven hours – with WTC 7 not even being hit by an airliner.

Furthermore, it takes a temperature of 2,795 degrees to melt construction grade steel, yet the highest temperature jet fuel can reach is 1,517 degrees. Plus, all the jet fuel burned off within two minutes of the towers being struck, while two independent studies proved that the fires within each tower never rose above 500-600 degrees. In fact, FEMA revealed in their final report that, “The heat produced by burning jet fuel does not by itself appear to have been sufficient to initiate the structural collapse.”

Also, the WTC towers were designed to withstand the impact from a Boeing 707 (similar to a Boeing 767), and each floor was designed to hold 2,600,000 pounds beyond its own weight. Likewise, the steel used in these structures was rated to hold five-times its normal load. MIT professor Thomas Eager admitted as much when declaring, “The impact of the airplanes would have been insignificant” in toppling the towers.

Also, how do we explain the pools of molten steel which were found bubbling 70 feet beneath the towers five weeks after 9-11? Incidentally, a temperature of 5,182 degrees is needed to transform steel into a liquefied state. Do you think fires that FEMA admitted “would have burned at, or below, temperatures typical in office fires” could have produced such extremes? Even NYFD audiotapes of firefighters who reached the South tower’s impact point reveal that they “judged the blazes to be manageable” and were easily extinguishable in less than an hour.

Even more interesting is the South Tower. Even though it experienced a less forceful hit than the North Tower and had smaller fires, it fell in only half the time of its counterpart (56 minutes). It takes five-times that long to cook a turkey! Plus, the South Tower’s cap, which initially tipped 23 degrees past vertical, suddenly reversed direction, then dropped vertically, defying Newton’s First Law of Motion.

Most incriminating, though, is the resistance-free speed (a mere 10 seconds) at which the towers collapsed. To put this matter into perspective, if you were standing atop the WTC towers, and at the precise moment when they began to fall you dropped a football over the side, you and the football would have hit the ground at nearly the exact same moment. In other words, 200,000 tons of steel, 425,000 cubic yards of concrete, and all the walls, desks and floors provided no resistance whatsoever. Not only does such a collapse defy Galileo’s Law of Falling Bodies, it is physically impossible unless all resistance was removed via a controlled demolition.
Of course there’s more (seismographic data, the ridiculous pancake & truss-bolt theories, and the complete vaporization of nearly all the concrete into a fine microscopic dust),

You would think that one of our basic freedoms would be to be allowed to spend our education dollars where we want them spent, they are our dollars and our children?

So would you support vouchers nationally? Would you support our rights to educate our children with our money?
