Did anyone see him with Putin after their talks today? Bush got it done and defended American interests finally without invasion. And Putin looked very depressed after Bush destroyed him in negotiations. I have to say, Putin looked hilarious.

I've wanted to be in the military since I was in high school. Its taken me 7 yrs to join but Im finally going in (Army) and feel confident about the decision I've made. I know deep in my heart that this is my calling in life and am happy. Im always getting down because some people just believe I've given my life away since Im joining during war right now! Why are people so ignorant when they do not understand (I guess I don't expect them to) why I want to do this? You can't knock someone for wanting to live their dreams!! Why are people so stupid?!!

Is it illegal for a doctor to fill a prescription for a patient he/she has not physically examined?

A friend just invested $1,500.00 for a web site which sells prescriptions that can be filled using the Internet. He has been told that "they" will handle all of the advertising, gaurantee 35,000 visitors to the site within the next 365 days and that he will receive 40% of each purchase made through his site.

The site is already up. It looks pretty unprofessional to me. The punctuation on the sentences isn't even correct! http://paradiserxdiscount.com

There isn't even a counter on it so he can determin how many people have visited this web site!

The person desiring to purchase the particular pharmeceutical simply fills out an online questionnaire which is read by an online doctor then approved.

This sounds like a complete scam. I am looking for a hyperlink to a Federal law which prohibits this. Scam or not? What do you think?

I DON'T THINK HE WILL MAKE A DIME!!!!!

ok i was on the freeway going at regualr 65 mph speed, i saw a high patrol car right behind me but he did not siren or turn his lights on, after 30 sec to a minute he turned his lights on and siren. there was nowhere for me to pull over because there was a merging lane to my right so i stayed in my lane and got off the freeway at the next exit because i felt it was the safest thing for me to do , wen i got off the freeway i pulled into a neighborhood. after i stopped he ordered me to get out of the car and cuffed me,he asked me why i was running from the cops and i said i was looking for a safe place to stop. he then started to search my car and found less than a gram of marijuana. after he wrote all the paperwork he told me that i was pulled over for tinted windows.. was the search legal??
can iget charged for "trying to run away" if its not listed on the citaiton? i did not try to elude him at all and did not put anyones life in danger.

how can i fight this

Let's call him "Jose". Jose hit my other neighbor (we'll call him Jerome) with a bat when he was confronted over something he stole then ran inside and locked the door..Jerome filed a police report it turns out the violent neighbor has a deportation notice. If they filed the report why haven't they come to pick him up? The landlord was informed about this and has not evicted him either??? What can I do I don't want my kids to see this violence and I don't feel I should move..He should be the one getting the steppin!

I'm not talking about the eldery or truly disabled, I'm talking about the "mentally disabled" who could work if given the right environment, and people who just need welfare for various reasons. Do you think they should have to do some part time work for those benefits? It could even be something they could do from home.

So that nobody has to pay taxes if they don't vote. Then people would be able to completely opt out of paying the government if they choose not to vote. Wouldn't that be more like the free market than anything else?

Oddly enough, Al Gore is leading the New Hampshire polls at the moment. (http://www.commondreams.org/archive/2007/06/28/2168/)
I don't know a lot about how the primaries/caucases work. Can he be chosen as the democratic candidate, sort of like a "write in?"

Rudy, you *are* aware that a large number of events that inflamed the Muslim world occurred under the watchful eyes of Reagan and Bush Sr? I mean, just look at the 80s in terms of American adventurism in the Mid East.

The only reason Giuliano is still around is he got lucky. The attack came on his watch and he was near live TV cameras, up until 30 seconds before WTC, his political future was doomed. And bin Laden was taken into custody.... when? Rudy? Hellooo?

The guy's a complete moron. Not saying Clinton wasn't, but Rudy's also in the "extremely naive" corner. This is the kind of talk that will fire up the idiots and the retards that still support President Bush and will push them closer to voting for Rudy Giuliani for the Republican nominee.

"Giuliani criticized Democrats, accusing them of weakness and naivete in dealing with terrorism."

When will the Democrats criticize the Republicans, accusing them of exaggerating the the threat of terrorism to achieve their business agenda?

Liberals underestimate what can be accomplished by courage and resolve because these are not qualities they possess. Liberalism is a can't cant. Every task is too difficult. Every danger is too great. This is why liberals don't oppose dictators until after they've been deposed by the likes of Reagan and Bush. While tyrants are still in power, liberal lips stay firmly glued to their backsides.

Want to Marry your Dog, Live Free of the Government & have your working neighbor's wealth redistributed to you? Kick the can of global terrorism down the street for someone else to fix? The Democrats are your party!

Want to bring down Communism, The Baath Party & The Taliban. The Republicans are your Party

I say yes we should

Every last thing that happnes in the US has a direct impact on Canada - Trade politics currency national debt - etc

How many people did we end up with who dodged the draft in Vietnam

What impact does the falling US dollar have on our manufacturing sectors etc

The list goes on and on -

Although we are a seperate nation with a very different history we are intricately affected by decisions made to the south of us

The US appears to be moving to a facist state - That will affect us and our people -

I say we should be watching and when rights disapear in the US we should warn the sleeping American public -

It is what a good nieghbor would and should do

3 years ago I lost my engagement ring. We looked for months for it before even reporting the loss, and it took months (while continuing to look) for the insurance company to do the investigation. The insurance company eventually paid for the replacement and all was fine. Recently, I found the ring. I have moved twice (been divorced even) and found it in some random bag about to go to Good Will- I was looking for loose change, imagine my surprise. Anyway, now what?! Could I be in trouble for insurance fraud? I legitimately lost the ring and my heart sunk when I saw it. I'm afraid to put it up on ebay, or try to sell it for fear it could come back to bite me in the a$$. Is there a Statue of Limitations on a situation like this? I'm no longer with the same insurance company. What do I do? I would rather sell it and get the money, but am scared to.
Please respond only if you have experience/knowledge of this situation. PS- the replacement diamond has already been sold for cash
