Politics & Government - 11 July 2007

On Monday, Vitter acknowledged being involved with the so-called D.C. Madam. A day later, new revelations linked him to a former madam in New Orleans and old allegations that he frequented a former prostitute resurfaced, further clouding his political future.


... on a happy note, the prostitutes did say Vitter was a really, really nice guy... lmao

He's been out of office for almost 7yrs. Did his lack of moral character keep him from doing a good job as president? Is it to take the focus off that bumbling idiot that is in office now?

Dr. Richard Carmona who was Surgeon General for the Bush administration between 2002-2006 reported that he was suppressed in reporting the scientific facts about stem cell research, emergency contraception, second hand smoke, sex education, mental and global health and other important issues, by Bush appointees, for political reasons.

Hi, I'm a foreigner who is living in Mumbai for 2 month.

I bought Airtel pre-paid SIM card 2month ago and I used without problem for 1 month.(I submitted my passport, company ID, Employment Visa invitation letter from Indian company etc.)

After 1 month later, I recharged Rs.3000 into my SIM card.
But, around 3 weeks ago, Airtel suddenly permamantely disconnected my number without any notice with my balance of Rs. 2500.

I complained about this and Airtel told me that My document which I've submitted was not enough to maintain my number.

Ok!(I accepted their reason, even if I work for very big Indian company an my all documents are came from that company)
And I asked them about my remained balance Rs. 2500
But, they told me that they cannot give my balance back to me also. I went Airtel customer care office for several times( this also costs around Rs.1000 and I spend whole day for this complain), But their answer is always same.

How can I figure out this problem? Thank

The military dictatorship in Pakistan calls the people killed in the red mosque extremists and that's good enough for them.
U.S. officials back that version of events and that's good enough for them.
If somebody lies to you every day for seven years, why would you attach the slightest importance to their words? Shouldn't it just be noise by now?

Ive been with my husband for 11 years but got married last Dec. right before he left for basic.We have 5 yr old and Im 9 months preg.Right before he was deployed he started acting strange.Coming home late at night after work,quit calling me during lunch(which he would call everyday before that) avoiding me and our son,completely stopped talking to me,and would go straight to bed,and not even touch me or want to have sex.I started question him and he said I just didnt understand what he was going through with having to go to Iraq,that I was just crazy.Well he left and I checked his email and there are emails from him to a girl, and her responding.He tells her he misses her like crazy and carries her picture by his heart until he comes back.Shes in the army also.I only know this because he tells her he hopes she is able to deploy so they can be together.says he cant wait to see her beautiful smile and is so lonely without her.I found her cell # and her full name.

Since the election is going to be conducted in Chennai, Fort St. George Assembly I can make a 100% guess/possibility/prediction that Pratibha Patil will be the new President of India.

I mean...as you know, countries are just tools of the elites in the government, opinions of small people dont really matter. I mean comon, you may vote them in, you may say that democracy can monitor them. But, is that really the case? For example, the Bush gang may declare their "war on terror" but what do you stand to gain and do you really want to support them? I suppose as seen recently, Bush's supporting rate is so frigging low, and almost no one really supports his actions anymore, yet it seems that he doesnt care. I just have this idea, in the future, countries should not function anymore, why not everyone just unite and make the world a better place. Why should a few countries get richer and richer and become tools for even fewer elites to control the world, while vast majority lives in poverty. Any opinions on this?

(Please - I know they qualify under the Constitution to run for President - So does Carrot Top)

Every President that I can remember have had at least ONE of these things on their resume; Most had a combination!!

Military Experiance, CEO of a company, CEO in government like a Mayor or a Governor. Foreign Diplomat Experiance.

Hillary & Obama have NONE of these.

Hillary & Osama are 2 of 100 United States Senators. They have never been in Charge of anything. They are 2 of 100 people serving in the Senate. On top of this, they have only been in the US senate a very short time. They are both JUNIOR senators. They have NEVER been in a leadership position of ANY kind (Mayor, Gov, CEO, Military Officer).

(Bush 2 times elected CEO/Governor of Texas, Ran a Business, Flew Jets in the guard, Harvard MBA, twice elected president of the United States)

yet it is bogged down on two fronts, stretching its fighting forces to the breaking point, wasting many of its assets ( human and machine), and sending injured and crippled soldiers back into combat. All the while China, with its million plus man army, nuclear weapons, and vast arsenals, and Russia ( with whom relations have cooled ) conduct joint war games

Time to rethink this whole " worlds only superpower" before you are blindsided.

I noticed that a lot more people seem to be doing drugs and getting only probation for DUIs lately. Is this because they think it is a way to become president?
