Politics & Government - 12 June 2007

We have an office "bully" that continuously causes problems, harasses people (not sexually), refuses to do his job and gets away with with it, and has caused several people in our office significant amounts of stress. He has been reported to management over and over again about several different issues but nothing ever gets done about it. What are my rights as far as refusing to go to work and subject myself to that type of environment? I am mentally and emotionally stable but going to work and dealing with this situation is having a negative effect on my emotional well-being as well as my life outside of work. Do I have any options at all or am I just stuck?

Hasn't it come to something that the more we alienate the rest of the world, Cons are now openly celebrating the new French Presidency......

Do you Cons know that the new Foreign Secretary is a Socialist bordering on Communist, who thinks the Bush war is a danger to the world and France..

Just curious, because Harry Reid says illegal aliens from Mexico are "undocumented Americans". Until yesterday at least, when he removed it from his website.

wizard of oz. He doesn't have courage, he doesn't have a heart and he most certainly does not have a brain. It would have been cool.

I could while away the hours
Conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain
And my head, I'd be scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.

I'd unravel ev'ry riddle
For any individ'le
In trouble or in pain

With the thoughts you'd be thinkin'
You could be another Lincoln,
If you only had a brain.

Oh, I could tell you why
The ocean's near the shore,
I could think of things I never thunk before
And then I'd sit and think some more.

I would not be just a nuffin'
My head all full of stuffin'
My heart all full of pain.
I would dance and be merry
Life would be a ding-a-derry
If I only had a brain--Whoa!

Does anyone else think that Bush took it too far back in 2002 by not listening to the UN after they told us not to go into Iraq?


I mean, we had no reasons to go over there. That was something the UN needed to take care of, not the US. Iraq didn't do anything direct to America for us to get over there. Iraq wasn't a part of 9-11. We should have let them take care of it.


Just wanting opinions...

"With their infernal racial set-asides, racial quotas, and race norming, liberals share many of the Klan's premises. The Klan sees the world in terms of race and ethnicity. So do liberals! Indeed, liberals and white supremacists are the only people left in America who are neurotically obsessed with race. Conservatives champion a color-blind society."

Whats wrong with the idea of building a wall between Mexico and the US. It will solve the problem of illegal immigration and save us alot of money. Mexicans need to go through the legal steps to get into this country, so tell me , if you had people running onto your property setting up camp in ur yard, wouldnt you put up a fence? the small cost of a fence would be made up for 10000 percent by how much we can save not needing as many border patrols , nat guard. no more of them taking advange of our social programs. and no more stealing american jobs!!! and dont you tell me that they are doing jobs americans wont do , the reason we wont do them is because they are underpaying jobs. if they paid a few more bucks an hour americans would want them. this is the problem jobs that use to be decent wages are being drove down by these mexicans , its disgraceful we dont have a wall. and no i will not support one with canada , not nearly as many canadians are sneaking over illegil

Story link to dissuade liberal "whining"
http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/06/12/war.deadline/index.html?eref=yahoo

quote 1
Senate Democrats will once again try to impose timetables for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq, Majority Leader Harry Reid announced Tuesday.
quote 2
However, President Bush would have the power to waive that requirement.(timetables)
quote 3
Some Democrats critical of the president's handling of the war have been pushing to rescind that authorization(2003)
1.) Since when did ex post facto legislation become legal in this country?
2.) Since the president can waive this, what possible use is this debate OTHER than grandstanding
3.)Notice that the pork barreling from the last time and the OVERT move by the pelosi/reid regime to stop debate on the 36000 carded (pork) requests are not talked about by Reid AT ALL?
4.)Since Cindy Sheehan sold out in Tex. for a profit and Nancy P. sold out for a jet any thought on what Harry wants for his sure sellout?

He should also SPEAK CORRECT English?

"This process has been drug out a long time,
which says to me it's political." said Bush.

Plus the MANY messed up quotes Bush has
been known to say & is on the record....

Shouldn't the PRESIDENT
speak CORRECT English?

All the mechanics at the dealership say we need a new engine but harley is refusing saying they can just rebuild the engine. I didnt pay 20 thousand dollars for a motocyle with a rebuilt engine. Do I have any legal grounds here for my claim. This has ruint my vacation that I have already paid for and cant even go on now.

Imagine some man gets scared too much & rashly kills a stray dog who was about to BITE on his leg....
Is it too punishable under section 428 or 429 of Indian Penal Code about prevention of cruelty against animals ( India) ?
What are provisions of private defence in these acts?

Fact: the educated makes more than the uneducated. Do liberals believe everyone should make the same? Where is the logic? If you want more money either get an education and work your way up. Or just collect welfare, it’s a choice.

here is why: she was already in the white house for two terms and helped bill with alot of his policy.
she is the senator of new york which is a tough job.
conservatives are terrified of her and conitinue to try and attack her personally instead of her job performance.
