I called and they told me $215 which seems very high. They also say in order to get it off my record I will have to go to driving school which is another 100 bucks. Does this seem too hight? When my mom rolled a stop sign in a richer area of the city that I live, it was less by half of this amount!

Since this is my first traffic violation, what is the procedure to go about? Any ideas? Remember to be nice to me!

The right wing radio talk show guys make a big deal over this, but in real life, does it make a big difference? Even when taxes went up to 90% no rich guy ever went financially belly up. Now the top tax rate is 25%, but that's not from the first dollar. The tax rate goes up in five stages. The first 15 grand is taxed at only 10%. Also, the tax rate is different for differnt forms of income. 'The rich' derive income more from investments than wage income. Capital gains taxes are lower than what they take out of your paycheck. Add in tax free bonds and the picuture changes. Wadda' 'ya think?

Fred Thompson describes himself as a Conservative. He has said Federalism is his guiding principle, a lodestar. "[It] provided a basis for a proper analysis of most issues: "Is this something government should be doing? If so, at what level of government?"
"Our government, under our Constitution, was established upon the principles of Federalism -- that the federal government would have limited enumerated powers and the rest would be left to the states. It not only prevented tyranny, it just made good sense. States become laboratories for democracy and experiment with different kinds of laws. One state might try one welfare reform approach, for example. Another state might try another approach. One would work and the other would not. The federal welfare reform law resulted from just this process."

How the HELL can MP's have voted to have Parliament exempt from the Smoking ban?

They push this on the rest of us and give us no chose in the matter, but its fine for them to have an exemption. The bloody hypocrites. They should lead by example not "do as I say, not as I do"

MP's should be banned from Smoking just like the rest of us.

we have liberals wanting vermont to secede from the nation, i think they should do it. its not an important state, and since theyre leftists, theyre just getting federal money from other states. it would save the other states money.
but could this also happen to the southwest US? more and more liberal voters are there, more hispanics are joining the military across the country trying act "patriotic", and La Raza is talking more about it and has increased membership. with a hispanic military, none of the soldiers would fight to prevent the secession. california doesnt even need the US. so i dont see anything that would prevent secession of the southwest if this amnesty bill is passed. anyone see anything that could prevent secession? i think we need another war with mexico, even perhaps a civil war. maybe we could BUY more of their land like we did last time...

The quran tells them if they win a war then they need to kill all of the followers to make an example out of them. Does that really sound like muslims are peaceful?

Source: Quran

If ye gain the mastery over them in war, disperse, with them, those who follow them, that they may remember.

If thou comest on them in the war, deal with them so as to strike fear in those who are behind them, that haply they may remember.

Therefore if you overtake them in fighting, then scatter by (making an example of) them those who are in their rear, that they may be mindful.

Play your silly little political games all you want , but don't waltz around our country saying that the war on terror is a 'bumper sticker' . Because it's not . And trying to diminish that reality is a set-up for disaster . Edwards support numbers fell 8% in just the last few weeks !! Why ? What happened in the last few weeks ? He made that comment , and more than once too .
Don't get me wrong , I 'm happy to see him drop like a rock , but still the fact remains .. . . . . .No American should be prancing about the country talking nonsense like that . Sure , he's got the right to be stupid , but we have the right to disagree with stupidity .

What do you think of Mr. John 'there is no war on terror' Edwards ?

I live in Texas. I'm trying to figure out what I can legally do in this situation. I'll try to make this as short as possible. I worked part time for a lady that just started up a bakery. I quite after about two and a half months because she was not paying me on time and making me hold the checks until the funds where in her account. I deposited my second to last paycheck right before I called in and quit on the 10th of May. On May 16th the money was removed from my account which I found out on May 21st that she had put a stop payment on it. Her reason was, while I was working for her I sat on one of her bar stools and it broke (it was not that nice of a stool) so I told her I would try to have a friend fix it. I still have it in my posession as that friend was pregnant and on bed rest so there has been some delay with getting it fixed. So my previous boss is stating that she took the money back to pay for this $99 stool (my check was for more). Plus she still owes me another paycheck.

Read this BBC link on Andrew Marr's History Of Britain - 1970's (Tuesday night on BBC):

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/magazine/6721709.stm

I remember the Winter Of Discontent, when there were power cuts, rubbish piled up in the streets everywhere for weeks on end, the schools were closed, the dead went unburies, no ambulances, no trains, no buses, no petrol, and a 3 day working week ... all thanks to the unions!

Do you agree with me that despite the problems and challenges facing our great counrtry, we should all be grateful to Maggie Thatcher for ending chaos like that?
