What in the world?? Add to this strange bit, the guy was dead?? Does anyone else see a huge problem with this idea? Theoretically, a guy donates to help out couples who can't conceive, or maybe just for the cash, then gets hit with a child support suit. I think it's wrong. He didn't choose to have a child, nor did he actually engage in the child making act that created the child. Is he responsible for the child? I'd like to hear both sides of this discussion.

At a stop sign before entering major street, I stopped little past stop sign because I couldn't see the incoming cars with tall van and cars that were parked on side of the major road.
Then an officer on motercycle at the stop sign knocked on my window and said I needed to stop at the white limit line for pedestrians.
I stopped where it was just about a foot ahead of the line because I clearly saw the both ways for no pedestrians coming before the stop sign.
But then the conversation after that was wierd;
1-He asked me if it's my car that I'm driving. When I said yes, he asked me what year it is, ovbiously not believing my answer. He didn't ask for my registration though.
2-He then wrote a ticket which I didn't know what it was, so I asked if it's a ticket and he said "No, you need to go to the court by this date."
But then later at the court I found out it's a ticket.
I'm so mad how he treated me and gave me a ticket for that and for lying.
Can anyone give me best defense advise??

Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black Muslim from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white atheist from Wichita,Kansas.

Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii.

When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father Returned to Kenya.

His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a radical Muslim From Indonesia.

When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocated to Indonesia.

Obama attended a Muslim school in Jakarta.

He also spent two years in a Catholic school.

Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim.

He Is quick to point out that, "He was once a Muslim, but that he also attended Catholic school."

Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that Obama's introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best.

In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya Soon after the divorce, and never again had any direct influence over His son's education.

Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam.

Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta. Wahabism is the radical teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world.

Since it is politically expedient to be a Christian when seeking Major public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background.

I doubt it. I can't imagine health being of that much concern to any American politician, but maybe someday when the old America dies off and the new America rises.

The other day Obama was talking about the 10,000 people killed during the Kansas tornados. The actual number killed was less than 10. He attributed his mistake to being tired from campaigning. I have two questions:

1. Do we want a guy who makes mistakes like this when he is tired with his finger on the button? Presidents don't get a lot of sleep (being off by 3 orders of magnitude is not a minor mistake and given the press coverage it seems like he is not very informed).

2. The Presidential campaign process is suppose to weed out people who can't hack it. Not being able to keep facts straight when under pressure is the kind of thing the process is suppose to reveal. So where is the media reporting on this? When Bush pronounced foreign leaders name's wrong during his first campaign, the media pointed out his lack of foreign policy experience (other's labeled him "stupid"). So why isn't the media asking whether Obama is up to the task or labeling him stupid?

government officials always vote for a pay increase. cost of living goes up but minimum wage stays the same. I find the government is really slow to act to increase the minimum wage. it seems so obvious that the minimum wage needs to be increased. maybe high income earner's don't really really care how hard it is for low income earner's to make ends meet? how's $10.00 US?

he stopped off to buy some ciggys and the next thing they bombarded his car with housebricks and proper smashed it up. The cctv camera was apparently looking the other way and the police said there is nothing they can do cos they got no proof. this is ridiculous. i knew i supported BNP for a reason. If it was white lads smashing up a car with a pakistani in it then they would be locked up by now.

I had an insurance agent named "Joe". He was always friendly when I came in to pay my bill. For several months I went in to make a payment and Joe was not there. I would ask about him and they would say he was off today. Finally I went in and asked about Joe and they stated that Joe died last week. I had not seen Joe in over a year. My receipt even that day had Joe's signature on it. Can they do this?

A student at my school threatened to bring a gun to school; he even described the location to me. I told the principal, but he brushed me away by saying "He's probably just messing with you." I take him seriously though, because he does have a history of depression problems and suicide attempts. Should I go to the police?

If you work overtime, you wouln't have to pay any federal taxes on it. It would help the average blue collar man, and wouldn't be a situation where the rich get richer. As a conservative, I think it's an excellent idea.

An Illinois dental professor says that it's Bush's fault that students are cheating on their dental exams! The reasoning? (does it matter) According to this genius, since Bush lied about WMD , students feel cheating is acceptable. What do you think he will conspire to do next? Cause cashiers at 7-11 to overcharge me for my slurpy? Isn't this "it's all Bush's fault" sounding the least bit MORONIC to even those who hate him? C'mon!
