I've asked several questions this morning about what happens to impoverished children in this country. The only answer I've gotten is, "Their mother is a whore who can't take personal responsibility."

Who is thinking about the children? Anyone?

And if the answer is, "no one," then what right do pro-lifers think they have to tell me I have to give birth to a child if they're not willing to continue to take responsibility for the child once it's born?

And Japhson, yes, I know, you think I'm a whore with eighty children, even though I've never gotten pregnant in my life. Let's assume for the sake of argument that you've made that clear and actually have you, I don't know, ANSWER a question instead of deflecting it.

WHO TAKES CARE OF THE CHILDREN WHO DO NOT GET ADOPTED?

And how does the attitude that these children should be taken away by the government and put up for adoption fit into the conservative desire for "smaller government"?

Good Morning ~

My boyfriend purchased a townhouse a few years back and now wants to put the deed into my name and remove his name. How do I go about doing this? Plus, my credit is not that great, is this doable? It's basically the deed/house is under my name, but he is still on the original mortgage loan? Correct.
Am I making sense?

Thanks-

40% of the country collects a government check. Families making 150K pay almost half to our various levels of government, essentially creating a system where there is little difference between that and 75K, yet all they scream about is tax cuts for the rich and complain about CEO's (as if most people have that title and Republicans are FOR stealing) What a bunch of rhetoric.

You can't let 100 million illegal aliens come into this country. It will not only take jobs away from Americans but it will also put a severe finacial burden on the tax payers. Don't let this happen.

So I would like to know what people think of having it mandatory for businesses to be closed 2 days a week....It wouldn't necesarily have to be the weekend but 2 days in a week would have millions of less cars traveling to work, mall, grocery stores, etc...It would make people unwillingly have to find other things to do with their time....and gase money....this would reduce the CO contributions into the atmosphere....another plus maybe people would find more family time like the good old days when things shut down at 5pm and weren't open 24/7....Oh ya I forgot that those big complanies have quota's to make and forget the warming of the earth....If businesses even closed at 6 pm every nite just think of the energy saved just shutting the lights off, having cooler temperatures in buildings after hours and not having people driving around aimlessly. Hey it might even help with the crime blight.....wow what a great concept.....just think the simple good ole days....will we ever see it???

When it comes to our people we have no money, to help them. We have no problem giving money to underserving countries, that will never payback. America needs to take care of their own. Nothing is being done.

I thought that once the new congress was seated, having taken the majority by virtue of voters' unhappiness with the current administration, that there would be more toe-to-toe with the present administration. Instead, it appears that the Congress remains intimated -- fearful to take hard stands because they're afraid Rove and friends will pillorize them for doing so in the next election. Quite dismaying.

Why do they keep asking asinine questions like this:

Do these people actually WANT unwanted pregnancies and various STDs? Do they get a tingly feeling inside just thinking about abortions?

Maybe you need to learn this:
self-control = the ability to control your own behavior, especially in terms of reactions and impuls

If an unwanted pregnancie is too daunting for you, cover it up or keep your zipper closed.

I live abroad, and I actually hadn't heard of Ron Paul until this week because the international magazines (time, newsweek) and papers hadn't really mentioned him. He's against the IRS, the federal income tax (which is unconstitutional, anyhow), against the Patriot Act and the Iraq "war."

The only thing I don't know is his stances on abortion and gay rights (if you know, please tell me - his website avoids the subject).

What do you think of him?

When a city announces that if motorists with outstanding tickets pay their fines, they won't be arrested, it is called an "Amnesty."

However, when McCain proposes that if illegal aliens pay a fine, they won't be arrested, he claims that it is NOT amnesty!

So what is the difference? Why is a one called amnesty and the other is strongly denied as being amnesty?
