We all know that ABC News is heavily tilted to the left but now they've set a new low in journalism. They released only two clients' names, both Republicans and both connected to the Administration, though at fairly low levels. ABC confirmed that a lot of "fairly important people" used the services but then decided to not release any more names claiming that it wasn't newsworthy. What a CROCK! Since when is it not newsworthy when a lot of "fairly important people" in Washington, DC are using the services of a Madam? Palfrey stated two months ago that a lot of "Imprtant People" in the democratic Party were on her list, I believe she said 6 high-ranking Democrats, and now ABC decides that it isn't newsworthy? I just think it's inconvenient to the Democrats and ABC will protect the leftists at all costs. Someone has to get these names released.

Just what act caused the mess in Iraq? Could American ineptness , with one of the most dumbed down militaries on earth, be the culprit. After all, Saddam committed his crimes mainly during the 1980's. And IF he had so many killed, why didn't America show it in his trial to justify America's intervention. We all have already seen America's ineptness: no WMD's, no Osama,etc.

Just one of my know person ( who is expired )Had given my name as reference of some persom whom he knew. Now what shall I do. I want them to get the heaviest punishment. I have challenged this case in the court. But they are so stupit that they had filed the case at high court in Mumbai for Insolvency of mine. Even I am ready to challenge that case. But at last they must pay for all my damages & for my loyatty. Even as per Maharastra Govt. Rule. No Bank is allowed to use any seal or Stamp of Govt. ( RajMudra ) They also dare to stamp that seal on my Warrant Notice. Now tell me what steps should I take to expose them. How shall I reach the Media.

One morning my kids were going on a group outing and my dog got out. When I awoke I Heard a ruckas in the front yard I opened my door to my neighbor and the police trying to get a dog(not knowing it was my dog). when I realized it was my dog I pleaded with the officer to please let me come out and get the dog for him he would not let me.,and sprayed a whole can of pepper spray in my dogs face. The sergant on duty came to talk to me and said my dog had bit the neighbor and he was going to be put on quarentine for 10 Days . I told him that my dog at 7 years old doesnt have a mean bone in his body and I want to see the bite. He then said that a animal control officer will be getting in touch with me. Well that Monday morning they came to my house to inform me that they were going to deem my dog as visous and I probably would never get him back and if I tried I would have to get a10,000 dollars insuranse policy just to keep the dog and the counsel would decide if it should go to a hea

There is someone who posts, questions. Asking anyone to submit, short stories. Yet she get entires from people who disguise "The Four-Letter word".
There was someone, who asked for traits, from each Party. Two SEPERATE Quesitons. about The Two Party's. Yet, she gets attacks. Along the same nature. Using disrespect to other Posts.
There's a Gentleman, who Posts, Political Questions, Using Rock-n-Roll Lyrics. Yet he's attack, slandered, and shown may sorts of degrading names.
Now I'm being shown that I must allow people to call My President names. Under the Freedom of Informatin. I have to except it.
But can I NOT, stand up for my Friends? And for those are aren't wanting, needing, or deserving these Personnal attacks?
Then how can I get the message out to all of those that agree with me. without them causing anymore hardships on those that do not deserve it?
How can we rid this Site, of all of this anger towards Our Fellow AMERICANS!!!?

Al Qaida doesn't exist in the way normal terrorist groups exist. It's just a loosely knit idea apparently. Al Qaida may or may not have caused 9/11, it may or may not have been behind a thousand bombings in Iraq, it may or may not have spokesmen, it may or may not even exist.

I haven't seen a shred of proof that Al Qaida exists. I think it's a fabrication. I think it's a scare tactic, a boogeyman, to put cowards under control. I think the bombings in Iraq are deliberately being caused by Intelligence Services and blamed on Moslems. And I think this is getting pretty obvious now.

Am I supposed to believe, like conservatives and liberals alike do, that Al Qaida actually exists?

Shocking moments in history have had a strong impact on what is to come . Heck, after the Pearl Harbor successful attack, even the Japanese commander said " I fear that we have only awoken a sleeping giant " . Words spoken while his underlings were joyful about the successful attack .
The events of 9-11-2001 woke up our nation as well .
Now, after the mid-terms , Democrats seem to be dancing with glee, but I wonder.. . . . .I wonder if they realize just how many Conservatives have been awoken . And how many are bound and determined to never let this happen again . And with every crazy liberal notion that we face, it only serves to strengthen our resolve and our numbers . I positively think the Republicans will win by a landslide in 2008 and most will never see it coming, because the media will deny it until the final days .
What do you think ?

Im in Virginia and my fiancee(18) has been in the military since she was 17 yrs and 1 month. She has paid over half of her support since she was 16 even though her mom claimed her on taxes(which she is contesting this year because her mom tried to claim her after she already claimed herself) and her dad still owes her mom back child support and signed a contract for child support but never paid any child support. her mom has never bought her clothes or bought her food since she was 14 and when she was growing up my fiancee asked why her mom didnt go to court for child support and she said because her current husband was supporting the family and she didnt want anything to do with her dad. My fiancee wants to know if she can get the back child support from her dad or only her mom can because her mom is trying to sue for back child support now and my fiancee thinks since shes been supporting herself ever since she became a teenager she should get it Is that possible?
Thanks and God Bless

With all the bad we hear from the mainstream media about Iraq. It makes me sick to think that most people take what the AP says to heart. I've been doing other reading, and googling, and have found quite a bit about the good news from Iraq.
Here's a few.
http://unix.dfn.org/a_letter_from_ray_re...
http://www.dfn.org/good_news_iraq.shtml....
http://goodnewsiraq.com/index2.htm......
http://op-for.com/2007/04/good_news_from...
http://www.blackfive.net/main/2007/04/go...

If you google, good news in Iraq, you get about 46 million hits. Many of them are very enlightening.

I'm copying and pasting many of these links to my friends in emails. We have got to get this kind of information out now. Before Pelosi and Reid really cause some major damage.

If you want, you can copy/paste the above links into emails.
