Is there any way that I can look at the City of Victorville's local laws? (mainly super bike and pocket bike laws please, but I hope you tell me where all the laws can be read.)

Bet you anything wounded Iraq contractors got A+ care on the tax payer's dime.

Republican war-mongering, "support the troops, until they get mutilated/injured", dirtbags make me want to vomit.

How come no one in Bush's administration or the pentagon kept an eye on things all these years? (no good "photo ops" at a hospital I guess). LOL.....Bush could have worn a surgeon's suit instead of a flight suit this time......lol

It was their needless war that put them there in the hospital in the first place!

I think in general Americans are viewed as more provincial while Europeans are viewed as being far more progressive. but is this generalization true?

I don't care what religion you are, mormon, Catholic, it really doesn't matter, if we NEEDED to come together as a people, do you think that we would still do it? Or would it be everyone for themselves? If you know we needed to?

Someone was griping about bad college instructors the other day...their entire class maintains the majority of test-questions were never discussed. Supposedly little of what they prepared for appeared on the last 3 tests. Someone said a college got in trouble over a similar situation? Seems to me it would be hard to prove/win a case like that! Sadly colleges can get away w/ a lot...

I am a service person who went into a commercial building to make a repair, while I was there I noticed signs of a major construction flaw that could potentially cause harm or even death to those people who work in the building. Should I make a big deal about this and file a formal complaint with the state and potentially cause the loss of jobs for the engineer who designed the building and the inspector who approved the plans or should I just fix the problem and let it go. The building is only 3 years old and anyone with any sort of education in the field should have noticed the problem before the building was erected.

I certainly would NOT under any circumstances vote for a Mormon.

I never let religious beliefs get in the way of voting for policy-supporters, but this particular set of beliefs tells me that I can't take the person's powers of reasoning seriously.

I hate to put it like that, but read up on it, seriously. I can't see myself taking a person seriously who believes this stuff -- and i can't see how the rest of the world could take him seriously either (they might take note that one of his articles of faith is that the new zion will be established on the american continent - lol)

While I think we can all agree that entering the US w/o permission is illegal, are all instances of this crime the same?

Is someone who immigrated illegally 30 or 20 years ago the same as someone who came across last week?
Is someone who was brought to the US as a small child the same as someone who came of their own free will?

Should there be a statute of limitations on illegally immigrating?

Should there be a sliding/conditional scale when considering someone's status?

Just curious.....

Fred Thompson, in a recent interview, asked the simple question:

How has America come this far, when American senators stand up in public and announce that the war is lost just to get more seats in the senate for his party...

Who was he talking about?

a) Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
b) Aiman al-Zawahiri
c) Saddam Hussein al-Tikriti
d) Harry Reid

(I know this is a tough one, these men being so similar in character...)

Any high school graduate knows the constitution gives presidents a lot of power. The executive branch has always been the most powerful branch. In the last several decades, the Supreme Court has become the most powerful branch of government (because of the ideology of Chief Justice Rehnquist).

Presidents control the military, CIA, the Justice Department, the Treasury, the Border Patrol, the Department of Homeland Security, the D.O.E., the USDA, the Health and Human Services Department, the Department of Transportation, the Department of Commerce, etc.. And presidents' powers are expanded during the time of war.

Presidents also have the right to attack other countries anytime they deem it necessary (and congress has the right to declare war). High school graduates know F.D.R. and Truman decided the outcome of World War 2, not congress.

If anything Democrats have been way to lenient in dealing with Bush.,
Does anyone recall his strong words against dmocrats before the 06 election? Or how hes found loopholes to sneak friends into office. The latest being appointing 2 more of his friends to office when Congress went on their Easter session for one week, where Bush found a loophole to instate 2 positions, when congress voted against them?

In looking at his distain for democracy and government oversight, and by taking into consideration all his pre presidential actions and comments -- Its easy to point to a president whos not doing a good job.

THATS not giving him enough credit.

Hes a political mastermind. And if he was able and willing to lead us into this war, and continually works to keep us there despite no true efforts made by IRAQ government, then could it be hes just plain greedy.

Dems should wake up and realize they are dealing with an evil dictator!!!!!
And deal with him accordingly

years ago? I heard of one major Al Qaeda leader being killed by a bomb dropped by a US plane but other than that almost nothing.

So if in 4 years the US military has killed 1 major Al Qaeda figure in Iraq how long do you think it will take to kill the 1000s of Al Qaeda terrorists that are in Iraq right now? 150 years?

So that leaves Bush w/ two options: Nuke Iraq off the face of the earth or withdraw all US troops from Iraq? Which sounds better to you?

WASHINGTON - Congress failed to override President Bush's veto of legislation requiring the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq on Wednesday, a defeat for anti-war Democrats that triggered immediate talks on a new measure to fund the conflict
