Goverment should make a good and quick decession about the voilence spreading in Rajasthan for the reservation by a group, because if no quick decession is taken this will turn in the biggest war between two castes soon.
Why there is so concern for reservation? Why goverment is quite?

Keep hearing all these cries of socialist democrats with regards to some of the statements Hillary has been making lately.Well i would like to see the republican supporters take a look at their own party for a moment and judge whether they might be the communist party.Bush is scaling back democracy ,wiretapping anyone he sees fit,if they want to hold you without giving you a speedy trial now all they have to do is slap the terror suspect label on you.

Another thing i want to point out.You republicans say democrats are into big government and spend out of control.Well when Bush had a GOP controlled congress they managed to create the biggest "big government" we have ever seen lol.And the spending,Clinton had a surplus each year when he was in office while Bush is about 700 billion in the red each year.Sometimes i think republicans pay no attention at all to what their own party does cause what they accuse dems of doing...their own party does it ten times worse.

I took a friend to park, paid and tickets signed a Voucher Receipt and Park Conditions”. I did not, but had he read this form, he would have notice that it contained a general exclusion clause, fully disclaiming legal liability for any injury or loss to Park visitors.

My friend was injured when a wooden post fell onto his shoulder.

i wonder whether the exclusion clause will provide an effective defence against his action in negligence against the Park.

I know doctors and nurses can pronounce someone dead...
But are paramedics, police, and/or firemen allowed to pronounce someone dead if they find the person DoA or the person dies in transit to the hospital?

Newsweek has declared Gore a 'EcoSavant' though I'm not quite sure why. I go to his website and find not one scientific award or, even a scientific review, only accolades from Hollywood and the press.

It seems that the liberal media along with the libs, are once more allowing Hollywood celebrities to determine what is true.

It's so reminiscent of how the libs let the cast of SNL convince them our current president was an idiot. (I wonder if SNL received a Hollywood award that year.) Do you think they have a right to be upset with what they mistook as a legitimate portrayal of Bush's mental capacities?

Especially now, when it's becoming hard to deny and more and more obvious that we actually have a PoliSavant in the White House?

True, our PoliSavant recently said that Global Warming is legit, but it shouldn't be mistaken for an endorsement of Gore's gross exaggerations.

Health care, taxes also key issues
By Alexandra Abboud
Washington File Staff Writer

President George Bush and Senator John Kerry fielded questions from undecided voters and vigorously defended their stances on health care, the economy and the war in Iraq as they faced off in the second of three scheduled presidential election debates.
The debate, the only one of the three set up in a town hall meeting format, took place at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, October 8.
Bush defended his decision to go to war with Iraq, saying, "Saddam Hussein was a threat because he could have given weapons of mass destruction to terrorist enemies. Sanctions were not working. The United Nations was not effective at removing Saddam Hussein."
Kerry questioned Bush's decision to go to war. "[Saddam Hussein] didn't have weapons of mass destruction, Mr. President," he said. "And if we'd used smart diplomacy, we could have saved $200 billion and an invasion of Iraq, and right now Osama bin Laden might be in jail or dead. That's the war against terror."
Each candidate claimed that a report released October 6 by the Central Intelligence Agency on weapons of mass destruction in Iraq validated his own position.
The town hall forum allowed the candidates to walk around the stage and gesture -- a departure from their first, more formal September 30 debate in Coral Gables, Florida, in which they were required to remain behind a podium -- allowing for a more free-flowing and personal presentation by each.
While the first debate focused specifically on foreign policy, this second debate gave voters an opportunity to hear the candidates' positions on domestic issues that in many ways affect voters most directly, including health care and taxes.
The candidates sparred over one of the most crucial election issues -- the economy -- with President Bush and Senator Kerry defending their differing views on the issue.
"The president was handed a $5.6 trillion surplus...when he came into office," Kerry said. "We now have a $2.6 trillion deficit. This is the biggest turnaround in the history of the country."
Bush defended his economic policies, citing the recent recession and the cost of war. Speaking to Kerry, Bush said, "Like you, I'm concerned about the deficit. But I am not going to shortchange our troops in harm's way. And I'm not going to run up taxes, which will cost this economy jobs."
The issue of health care also played an important role in the debate, with one questioner inquiring about the importation of low-cost prescription drugs from Canada.
President Bush cautioned that the safety of prescription drugs coming into the United States must be carefully considered, and said the Food and Drug Administration and the Surgeon General are currently working to insure that such importation can be done safely. "I want to remind you that it wasn't just my administration that made the decision on safety. President Clinton did the same thing, because we have an obligation to protect you," he said.
In response, Senator Kerry said the administration blocked a bill to bring less expensive prescription drugs into the country. "We're not talking about Third World drugs. We're talking about drugs made right here in the United States of America that have American brand names on them in American bottles," he said.
Polls continue to show Bush and Kerry in a statistical dead heat as they begin preparation for their third and final debate on domestic issues October 13 in Tempe, Arizona.

Only three times in Americas history has the Electoral College differentiated from American popular vote. Most notably, Bush vs Gore in 2000, where MORE AMERICANS VOTED FOR GORE, but more of the 538 faithless electoral college had a different idea.

My cousin is 20. He, his girlfriend and a few of his friends ask me to buy them alcohol from time to time. (I'm 24) I have done it in the past when I know they are spending the night and it's only one or two of them, but I don't feel right buying it for a big group of them at someone else's house. They're all pretty responsible and level headed, but I still worry about getting in trouble or causing them to get in trouble. It sucks because I feel like I can't even hang out with them because of the legal issues, even if I'm not the one actually buying the alcohol. So my question is, what is the penalty if they get caught drinking? Would I still be responsible even though they're over 18? Is the fact that I'm over 21 going to get me in trouble just for hanging out with them even if I'm not the one that provides the alcohol?
