A retired member of the filth calling himself 'Essex Ron' has been e-mailing me directly following my comments on this question. He is becoming an internet pest.
He is thick stupid and a bully.(No surprise there!)
What does one do? Does anyone know who he is? Not what he is, that is obvious.
He has not got the guts to reply publicly on Yahoo Answers, which tells me everything.

This is another example of why people hate the police. They never do things openly but threaten people in secret. They really are Filth!

On the new today a man was saying they were either having to cut sentences or release prisoners early and generally they were having to do both.

ive been researching battles in ww2 and in my opinion some of the battles won by Rommel were very impressive.

If he had the same numbers, tanks and planes in North Africa im sure he would have no doubt defeated the allied forces there.

He was also a decent person, a German soldier not a Nazi Criminal

I have to explain any legal principles that would limit the ability to change the terms of a contract once all the parties have signed a written agreement.

Source: World War two: The Greatest generation completed WW two in 39 months. Fast forward to 2007. The USA military can not claim victory over insurgents who fight like the stone age people. ( Should I say Flintstones?) The insurgents are taking on the most powerful nation on earth and are hurting them (USA Military) day in and day out. The insurgents have basic weapons and wear tennis shoes but still put the hurt on the USA after 4 years and 3 months. Amazing!!

I have been learning about youger people becoming mayor of a city. I live in Lima, Ohio and I'm wondering if people think a 20 year old could win mayor of a medium sized city. I have always been interested in politics and I really dislike the mayor we have now. Just looking for some input and maybe some help on how to be on a ballot. Thank you!

...people keep calling babies born of illegal parents "anchors"?

the children themselves never did anyone any harm, and yet they are designated with such an evil term.

i hear people want to alter the 14th amendment. well, according to the amendment itself, no state has the right to deprive anyone of its privileges

when we're talking about border-crossing, the law is golden, but when it comes to the 14th amendment, its a different story? come on people!

Yesterday as I was driving through the parking lot of a gas station, a truck turned and smashes into my driver's side door - putting a big dent in it. I called the cops. And the cop showed up, I told him what happened. He filed the report and I believe he said that no one was at fault because it happened on private property. Which is absolutely bs because the guy ran into me so it is clearly his fault. So today I called my insurance company and told them about it and they said since no one was cited at fault, they will pay for the damages and I have to pay the $500 deductable.

Should I really have to pay anything at all? Because it was clearly not my fault and all the other guy's fault. What should I do? Should I call back the cop and talk to him? I believe the guy who hit me should have to pay for all the damages, right? I shouldn't be paying for a thing. What should I say so it is fair for me?

What is the problem?

People act like someone is snatching up a child from a woman that is expecting, and then rip it apart for research.

Isn't it Donated or created for the sole purpose of stem cell research? Therefore the fetus, or whatever is used, wouldn't of ever been created in the first place ....no harm done....Right?

if not i'd really like to hear why, because i seriously don't know.

Seriously.

(Yes, I know: We can all sit here and blame "terrorists", countries that support them, and etc, etc, etc, etc...

But I seem to recall a point before Bush got elected that the Middle East wasn't in such turmoil. Sure, there were problems, but at least it didn't "consume" the region--as it is doing now: The US caught on three fronts: Iraq, Afghanistan, and possibly Iran. Israel: Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, and possibly (again) Iran. Not to mention its own internal problems with its failed leadership.)

Or am I the only one who is grasping at straws here?

Okay. Let me see if I get this one right:

The Palestinians elected Hamas democratically in 2006--because in their words: "Fatah was corrupt and incompetent, and unable to do anything about the current problems affecting the Palestinian people or their way of life."

So Hamas gets sworn in and then a year later--kicks out all Fatah reps, and Abbas once again reforms the government under the same law of rule over in teh West Bank...and WE still back them?!?

Even though they are still corrupt and incompetent?

WHY?

But my boss "highly desires" that everyone in his work group attend..Personally I do not want to go, I have before and I felt totally out of place...My question is this..Can my boss hold me back from gaining a new postion, or a raise, based only on the fact, that I did not attend this meeting? Can he make work unbearable? Perhaps even hostile? I think he wants us all there just for show..To show the others that he got all his group to go.

Every great civilization in history has fallen. With all these problems America is involved in and the US dollar getting weaker everyday, and all the jobs going to China and India. Is the end of this Empire nearing? Should we look for work in India or China?

Please serious and thoughtful answers only. I mean if you are a liberal try to understnad a conservstive in the best possible light fo ra moment and tell me what you think defines them. If it still comes out negative and that is what you honestly think well ok, but I do not intend for this to be a trashing or insulting opportunity.
I am a independent conservative Christian. I just want to understand better how liberals see themselves and others. But please give succinct and specific summaries.

What is the most significant difference between the two groups and are liberals able to sympathise with any of conservative concerns or see any truth in their views?
