Politics & Government - 4 June 2007

recently something happened that a lot of you read about and i thank you for your responses. quickly, while i was in the hospital, a nosy, bitchy nurse gave the police my medical information to help prosecute my wife. she divulged the severity of my injuries; when just an hour before the police asked if i would sign a form releasing my med. records to help prosecute her. so, i never signed the form and she gave them info anyway. isn't this illegal? isn't medical supposed to be highly confidential?

and lori, if your out there, your a sweetheart and i'll be writing yopu soon.

thanks

I am not asking whether you would do it or not, but rather if there are laws which protect individuals who are speeding while carrying mothers in labor to the hostital. Please give facts with sources and not opinions. Thanks

Can I file a lawsuit against Yellow Cab of Houston for being involved in an accident where I was a passenger? What happened was a pickup was cut off by a bobtail rig and the pickup lost control on gravel on the shoulder and came across the centerline where the cab I was in (sitting in the front passenger seat) couldn't stop in time and hit the pickup. All I saw was a cut on my knuckle, but a day later I'm experiencing neck pain. Can I sue the cab company? And if so, would I be able to settle it out of state now that I'm in Iowa and it happened in Texas? It happened 6/3/07

rather than Americans? Liberals will say that they consider themselves citizens of the world because they hate American jingoism, but isn't that a typical liberal exaggeration? Despite what liberals say, we are not Nazis, Bush is not Hitler, and we do not live in a fascist society. Leave it up to liberals to turn patriotism and love for America into something to be feared and discouraged.

Here is some background on the good Dr http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_E._Jones

Argumentum ad hominem (argument directed at the person). This is the error of attacking the character or motives of a person who has stated an idea, rather than the idea itself. The most obvious example of this fallacy is when one debater maligns the character of another debater (e.g, "The members of the opposition are a couple of fascists!"), but this is actually not that common. A more typical manifestation of argumentum ad hominem is attacking a source of information -- for example, responding to a quotation from Richard Nixon on the subject of free trade with China by saying, "We all know Nixon was a liar and a cheat, so why should we believe anything he says?

1. Is it jealousy of US democracy, wealth, freedom?
As claimed by Bush & company.

2. To spread Islamic religion? I
Is that their way to spread their religion? By Kamikaze's or terrorisms? (As claimed by other religious individuals, all Muslims strongly denied this.)

3. Is it due to US years of continuous support on Israelis' regime occupation in the Middle East?
(which unbearable depressions led ones, or the victims and the witnesses commit suicidal attack ?

And this is the opinion of almost all Muslims.

However (except for the majority Palestians & some people/groups in the world) majority of Muslims in the world strongly reject the idea of commiting suicide & attacks on the civilians/innocence as that are against the religion.)

All answers are appreciated, please tell me where you are from.

Thanks.

Why make current US troops go thru 2 or 3 or even 4 tours of duty in Iraq & Afghanistan? The War on terror is bacially a world war & last time I checked every world war the US has ever been in the (including the Cold War) the US had a draft. So why make current US troops take on all the sacrifice for the war on terror? Why not make every American (male & female) take on some of that resposiblity as well? Everyone should put in their fair share. Right?

the Iraq war? (All Thanks to President Bush)

Are they going to just slap a new yellow ribbon magnet on their SUVs (which guzzles down the gas that supports the terrorists) on the 4th of July7 & call themselves patriots while they drink a beer at the beach?
