It wasn't like one day in Germany they started to despise and kill all the Jews. It must had been an issue that had brewed for a while.

Thing is do you think Muslims are going this way. (British people will not take anymore of them just like Hitler did against the Jews?.. I'm not saying they will be killed but they will get less sympathy and wont get everything they're way)

I'm not racist just interested to see if Britain will have the breaking point where enough is enough, as did Germany.

Just to make it clear it was a terrible thing that Germany did. I'm just interested of the breaking point?

In my opinion, our nation is not ready at all for a black or a woman president. The middle east has a low impression of women as is and with all the turmoil, how could they take a woman seriously.

Furthermore, it seems that as a whole, our nation would not be ready for a black president, especially a more left leaning one that can't admit he isn't 100% black because he is catering to Jackson and Sharpton.

Do you think either of these candidates are viable? Do you think either would do a good job? I'm quite scared for our nation if either Hillary or Obama get into the Executive office.

Amnesty = the act of an authority (as a government) by which 'pardon' is granted to a large group of individuals.

Pardon = to release (a person) from punishment; exempt from penalty: a convicted criminal who was pardoned by the governor. 2. To let (an offense) pass without punishment

How does that translate into having to pay fines, having to leave the country to apply for legal residency and having to pay back taxes??

Instant runoff voting, or IRV. This tricky method of voting is a way that algore would have won the 2000 election. Everyone admits that Ralph Nader stole votes from algore and left the back door of the Whitehouse open for GWB to walk right through and take a seat in the Oval Office.

Here's how it works: GWB, algore and Nader are running. You then rank them 1-2-3.

GWB = 44% of the votes
algore = 31% of the votes
Nader = 15% of the votes
The other 10% are left blank.

Of the 15% that chose Nader as their number one choice, 95% chose algore for their second while 5% chose Bush as their second. Therefore 95% of Naders votes go to algore.

The result would look like this:
Bush = 44.75% of the votes
algore = 45.25% of the votes. algore WINS.

Does this seem fair? So you can still vote for the far out candidate and still get the democrat elected. Yes, it is a democrat thing, you have the "left" (algore) and the "very left" green party (Nader).

...when they reported this question? I was just trying to get an explanation. I caught her being hateful.

Question: Good sign of morality and being "happily conservative"?

Question Details:
Question about Gay Pride 2007 advertised on Yahoo!answers: from Happily Conservative: "I've noticed it too. I was disgusted. Source(s): Yes, politically correct pansies: DISGUSTED!"

Christ and conservatives advocate namecalling? Since when? Disgusting! Bigoted! In a word..."conserevative"

"Pansies"?????
Rick Santorum Ted Haggard Ralp Reed Alan Keyes Rick Santorum Sean Hannity GOP Gay and Profane, or just hateful?

Her namecalling NOT mine.
Whats up with that?

I look at the people who have thrown their hats in the presidential campaign and I am slightly irritated. It seems like there are no TRUE conservatives anymore. McCain and Giuliani are moderate at best and it seems as though they are the ONLY 2 republicans that stand a chance.

I'm not a big supporter of the religious right, but I am a big supporter of conservatism. Any shot in the near future of having a true conservative run for office that actually has a chance?

I'm not talking as extreme as Pat Buchanan even...just SOMETHING conservative.

A very simple question, which has not been asked before.

But I'm asking a sincere question.

How far would it reach? What would it do that present law does not? and how would it be interpreted?

I'm interested in your thoughts. Thanks!

If I called 911 and then just stayed on the line without saying anything, would they come? Or would they assume it was a prank/accidental call and ignore it?

I've always been curious about that because sometimes if I'm home alone, I get paranoid about what would happen if someone broke in or something. In which case, I probably couldn't talk to the 911 dispatcher or they would hear me talking and find me (if I was trying to hide or something).

Luckily, no one has ever broken in or anything (knock on wood) but it doesn't mean that it couldn't happen... I just want to know, *just in case*...

And also, how long would it take to track down your address by GPS if you're calling from a cell phone? I don't have a house phone in my room and I use my cell for everything. I called 911 on my cell once for a car accident outside my house and they had to ask me my address, the intersection, the township, etc and it took over 10 mins for someone to get there... (Luckily no one was hurt though).

A very close friend of mine was going 81 mph in a 45 zone.
He was told the maximum sentence included 6-12 months in prison! The officer really has a thing against him, so what is the Most they can charge him with?? oh, he also has quite a few smaller speeding tickets from before.

Can he seriously go to jail over this?

Just curious about this scenario. You wake up in the middle of the night. You get your gun, get out of bed and see a dude with your TV on the way out the front door. He sees the gun, but doesn't drop the TV. Do you shoot him?
I'm asking because it seems that so many people who have the seige mentality are just looking for an excuse to shoot someone. It's almost like they WANT someone to break into their home, just so that they can shoot them.

I want to be a pilot in the Navy and am currently going through the application process. In some of my research I have read they assign you your career path at the end of OCS. Does this mean that even though I'm accepted as Pilot I could end up doing something else? I understand that this may be the case due to physical restraints and what not but I am confident I can pass those. I am just worried that I go through OCS and at the end they tell me they don't need pilots.

The adult entertainment industry rakes in more money than pro-football, basketball and baseball combined. Americans spend more money on pornography than on movie tickets and the performing arts.Pirates movie has racked in over 300 million already .
porno only leads to -----
"Masturbation" which destroys your health
You waste your valuable time on masturbation
Weakens your ability to make money (since you spend most of your valuable time watching pornographic content and then masturbating)
Destroys your marriage or your relationship with your partner
Makes you feel guilty after masturbation (inferiority complex)
Prevents you from having better sex with your partner
Creates a negative psychology that can affect your business life
Prevents you from making your life's dream come true .


Lets tax this industry heavily and let jerk offs pay all the taxes.
We tax tobacco and alcohol at 20 times the usual rate why not begin taxing porn in the same manner .
