as a Englishman who has recently travelled to the USA, i feel i must ask this question..Most Americans make "whooping" noises when they get a little excited, much like children in a park.Is it because of their small heads?

Ever since 9/11, Bush has used his "war against terror" as an excuse to allow the government to snoop into private citizens phone calls, bank records and who knows what. Why would they not snoop into Yahoo??

The financial position of the US has declined dramatically.
The US is heavily indebted and plundering the Middle East is it's last grasp. Its on its way out and The US knows it. Do you think England will have new illegal immigrants from the states with their counrty go's down the toilet?

America can get that 15 % in 1 phone call to Russia, Venz, Africa, or lots of other countries. Or simply Alaska. America needs even less, if it didn't sell the Alaska oil to Japan.

There's no nukes that can hit the 50 united states of America. So why not just let the middle east solve their own problems?

I'm mean, no one votes in Saudi Arabia and they treat their women like dirt - and we're not 'spreading democracy there. Castro's a bigger threat to humanity then Saddem ever was.

btw, is 'national interest' a code phrase for Corporations interest?

When people have sex outside of marriage it has the potential to create children that may grow up knowing neither their mother nor father. This damages their moral growth and may be connected to why many persons lack essential common since. Even with protection the emotional scars abused sex, or sex with a fair whether counter part, leaves are devastating. I believe any person who can't wait until they’re married should have all their eggs in a bank, have their sperm in a bank before having a hysterectomy, or have the government cheaply remove their reproductive organs and replace them with simple urethras. I believe this will give many problems (I can't list or else I'd run out of space) we face near permanent solutions. What are your comments to this concept? If this idea has any flaws then correct them.

His feeble attempts at intimidation does not impress me much.

Phil Donohue ate his @$$ for lunch one day when he tried that. You can probably see it on youtube.

Thanks for taking the time to read this,Im in a sticky situation and need some advice.I work in IL.I have worked for fast food for 5 years.I have been a mgr. for almost 3.A few months ago I was at work and another manager assaulted me, with an open hand to the face "slap".I did nothing to provoke this.I was so shocked I just walked away.This had ever happened to me before.The next 2 days I went on like nothing happened, until finally it bothered me so much I told my store mgr what happened.The next day my store supervisor called me into the back office, in the office were my owner, supervisor, store mgr, and the other mgr who assaulted me. The mgr admitted to them that she slapped me, after denying it.Then they kept asking "Was it playful?" I said no it hurt there was no bruise or anything, and no witnesses and the video footage was to shaky to tell, but she admitted to slapping me.She continues to harass me so i quit1 day notice, now they wont give me my check, or my 2weeks vac pay?

Taxpayers for Common Sense, a watchdog group, has calculated that Clinton landed 360 earmarks worth $2.2 billion from 2002 to 2006 in various spending bills. The beneficiaries have ranged from defense giant Northrop Grumman Corp. to New York-based Telephonics, which won $5 million for helicopter equipment.

I would cast my vote for Clinton. They didn't call him Slick Willy for nothing! He could precisely express just about anything and could form a real connection with his audiences.

Now, before some moron says something stupid.

Think about this. Wages for both the public and private sector are the largest single factor. Most of business and government budgets are spent paying wages to employees.

Now. The government taxes business and employees a percentage of their income to run government, with their main expense being its' workers. In return, their wokers (public servants) pay a percentage of their income back to the government !!!

Now think about it. Say for example, I pay $1000 in tax over X period. That is enough (roughly) for one public servants wage for the week. Then, they have deducted let's say $350 in tax.

Now I know that a percentge of the tax they pay can be claimed back, but what happens to the rest?

I am sure that if you approached the public servants and said "hey, what if we now pay you a net wage of say $800 for the week and we'll call it even", they'd say OK.

Business would pay less tax, so would private sector employees.
