One of my neighbor's lawn has cigarettes along the edges, along with in the road. Its not an eccesisive amount, be still. I personaly think that smokinbg is already hurting you, the environment and people around you, so why add on to that and litter these "cancer sticks"
Is that rude or is it just me?!

rather than to have 2 or 3 of them batlle it amongst each other. It seems like all the Obama supporters hate Hillary and all of the Hillary supporters dislike Obama (and/or Edwards). If they would just unite and fully support one candidate all the way, the Democrats would win a lot more elections.

The Republicans do just that. They pick one candidate - no matter how bad he might be - and give him their full support all the way. This is why George W. Bush is our current President. This is why Ronald Reagan was President. This is how Nixon became President. Need I say more?

So do we have to sacrifice our own people for OIL?
I have been working in the Oil industry for over 30 years and we have plenty! It's not the security of our nation, We have the best security, or at least we use to! Over 3000 dead! How many more have to die? How many more fathers, sons, mothers & daughters have to die!! Have you lost a loved one?
How the hell do you feel?

I'm only asking this becuase I had no idea that there were so many people still in America who don't believe in it. I answered this question on AOL and according to the Gallup Poll around 50% of people don't believe in it which shocked me!! Guess there's more fundamentalist influence in this country than I thought! LOL!!!
Please tell me where you stand on this theory and answer honestly please. O and FYI, I do believe in evolution obviously. hahaha!!!!!

All I hear is "Bush is wrong!" "Congress is wrong"

So what would you do.

I would send them back then change the time period you have to wait to become a citizen so that they'll want to come back.

Are this century's poster child for corruption and cronyism?

Can't they stay *focused* on their own problems, without going: "I may have done it, but look at this guy! HE'S WORSE!"?

its the worst mistake the world ever made. i find it very disturbing that we will most likely live the rest of our lives in a cold war where each side (mainely Russia and the US) has their finger so close to the button. if either side decided to attack, that would be the end of the world as we know it. that bothers me. cause if we keep them we could all die, if we dont keep them we could all die. also does anyone know how many nukes their are in the world and how many it takes to kill most people on the planet?

My sister had her car repoed like 6 years ago. The bank has been filing to get the money left on it after it was sold. (Its close to 3K) anyways she looked up on her credit report and it showed a judement against her. When she looked up the court records online it said that they had served her with court notices like 3 times and everytime she has gotten them...which is a bold face lie. She never knew she was being served. She never once had anybody server her at home or her job. My question is how long can they try to get the money from her or will this thing go on forever?

IED's almost always are on tight city streets or out in the country side. The simple answer is.....dont drive on the roads. This solution only works in the country side/ not the tight cities. If humvees dont drive on the roads, it would make getting hit by an IED ten times harder. DRIVE OFF THE ROADS!

"Note to everyone: You don't abort a fetus, you don't abort a baby; you abort a pregnancy, a biological process. You can't abort a thing."

Pregnant means: biology: carrying offspring within the body: carrying unborn offspring inside the body

Offspring means: 1. descendants: the descendants of people, animals, or sometimes plants
2. result of something: the product, consequence, or effect of something


Abortion means:
.1. operation to end pregnancy: an operation or other intervention to end a pregnancy by removing an embryo or fetus from the womb

2. miscarriage: a miscarriage (technical)

3. cancellation: the ending of a flight or mission before it is completed

4. offensive term: something so badly done or made that it is a complete failure

SO do you with all these definitions agree with the above statement that you can not abort a fetus or baby? This was a comment made by our own "BUSH INVENTED THE GOOGLES"

Assume 270 million former US citizens immigrated to Mexico, leaving 30 million US citizens plus the entire armed forces throughout the world - 32 million people total. Imagine 90% of your city, town, county, state left for Mexico. What would happen?

There is an old saying - "If you can't say anything nice about a person then don't say anything at all". Yet, beginning with the Clinton era negative campaigns have been waged in so many elections. Does it effect your opinion of the basher or recipient? Does it send you a message? If so, what?

Arrest warrants have been taken out against a veteran Jackson County Sheriff's deputy accusing him of starving to death several dogs on his property outside of Homer, Banks County authorities said.

The warrants, expected to be served today, charge Deputy Randall Morgan, 57, with four counts of cruelty to animals, Banks County Sheriff Charles Chapman said. Four dogs, believed to be Walker hounds, were found dead, chained up without food or water off Poole Road east of Homer, he said.

"There is no way to know how long these dogs had been out there," Chapman said. "One or more of the dogs had started to decay."The dogs were found with collars that included Morgan's name and contact information, Watkins said. The skeletal remains of another dog were found at the site, she said. Graphic pictures taken of the malnourished dogs show the animals, some decaying while others' rib cages protruded through skin, chained separately outside an unoccupied mobile home on the property.

Watkins also contacted People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, who urged the Banks County Sheriff's Office to take action.

"Starving animals to death is as cruel as it gets," PETA spokesman Peter Wood said. "A deputy who might have done this just makes it even more egregious."

I do know a few people with college degrees who work at low paying jobs that are not in their field but to be honest I do not believe it has to do with the economy. All of them have some oddball degree that wouldnt do them a bit of good no matter how the economy was doing. This just be bad researching on their part when they chose their major to pursue?

I'm a UK citizen with only a provisional driving license. Can I learn to drive in the USA whilst not a US citizen?

I'm 19 and only have a provisional driving license, and have been riding a 125cc scooter for 2 years. I heard that I may be able to learn to drive in the USA whilst not even a citizen. Is there any truth in this?

I visit the US often, for up to 2 months at a time, and would love to drive over there.

Any help would be appreciated.
