I'm in AZ and he is deployed. She is trying to get Grandparent's rights, based on the fact, that she doesn't like me. She has said she will do whatever it takes to split us up and take our son from the both of us. The women is psychotic, prank calling me, telling her own son who is deployed he is dead to her because he screwed up and married me! Now, the question... Who do i contact in the military to find some way to get to the location in which he is stationed before he comes back? I know he was supposed to take care of it. I just need to know how to get out of AZ and to AK so i can get away from this bs. Our marriage and family is being threatened and we want to be away from it all... Please help me. I am only 19 and am taking care of my son alone while my husband is away, as if that wasn't enough stress this woman is seriously trying to sabotage our family.

...valid legally? My husband and I used this Will Maker Software to specify the preferred guardian of our children and executor of our estate. Does it need to be viewed and/or signed by a lawyer in order to be upheld in court?

Are you one who believes that we since terrorism poses such a serious threat and since Bush is doing such a great job protecting america, that we need to stay his course?

So, it took less time to eradicate Hitler/Nazi Germany, Mussolini and Hirohito from Europe, the Pacific, South-East Asia, Middle East, Mediterranean, and Africa, than the War in Iraq.

I would like to hear some thoughts.

If we did, maybe our government as well as Mexico would take notice of the fact that we are fed up with the illegal problem. I say, don't take vacations in Mexico, don't buy products made in Mexico, and don't do business with anyone who hires illegal immigrants.

Bush is out of office in 2008, so why are the liberals on the far left still wasting time bashing him? Why not focus on issues that can help American, not produce sound bits that help our enemies.

I have notice that the majority of supporters "coincidentally" are Hispanic, no offense to Hispanic Americans that do not support crime.

bush was asked if he would consider pardonning the 2 border patrol agents convicted of shooting an illegal drug dealer, and he said that he would not promise to do any such thing. He then continued and said:

"I know it's an emotional issue but people need to look at the facts. These men were convicted by a jury of their peers after listening to the facts" .

Iol..

Anyone notice anything peculiarly inconsistent about Bush stance on not interfering with the justice system?

I think if we are going to waste time and money on fighting petty marijuana charges then why grant illegals amnesty? We could save the time and money and secure the borders and protect our country and economy if we spent time on real matters. Im not a POT HEAD by any means but, marijuana isnt any more dangerous to the user and the public than boos and tabacco. I know why its illegal but moonshine was once the same way lets move on now and fight a differant war and make another a bit easier.

I mean if everyone wore masks so no one knew who was who and the only way to distinguish anyone would be how well they could articulate themselves in conversations. I would guess everyone would crowd around bush thinking "there goes the neighborhood" and wonder how one person could so full of crap.

I recieved the speeding Ticket in the Woodlands, a suburb of Houston in Texas. 6/31 - is not a real date, and i was wondering if I could be like, well I was going to show up when it became 6/31 - but at the same time I don't want a warrant and I still have until 7/31 to send in a letter saying I'll do defensive driving to clera the ticket. I want to call a lawyer and ask, but the fee for doing so will probably be equivalent to the cost of the ticket. Thanks for your help.

This other company copied the product and got it into a catalog that is selling products made by me also. Should I inform my distributor that they are carrying a product that infringes on my patent and they should carry my product that I have the patent on? Shouldn’t the distributor take some responsibility as to what they are selling for other people?

It's pretty obvious that the GOP fired the judges because they weren't far right or Fascist enough for this current adminstration. These "terrible" judges were going to do "terrible" things like following the law and allowing imprisoned terrorist SUSPECTS a day in court.

Dogfight: Michael Vick v. Robert Byrd
Share July 19, 2007 5:42 PM

ABC News' Z. Byron Wolf reports: Senate President Pro Tempore Robert Byrd is old and shaky, but he's still got the fire in his belly when he wants to call it up. That was on full display Thursday afternoon when this business of dog fighting drove the longest serving Senator to the Senate floor for a speech the likes of which other, younger senators might have liked to summon during the Iraq War debate this week.

He declared that he has seen one execution in his life -- a man put to death in the electric chair. "Its not a beautiful thing," he said. "I could say I could witness another one if it involves (long pause) this cruel, sadistic, cannibalistic, business of training these vulnerable creatures to kill."

Byrd outlines what happens in a dog fight, punctuating his speech with shouts of "SHAME! SHAME!" How inhuman! How dastardly!"

"God created the dog to be man's companion," Byrd cried.

"Two dogs are placed in a pit. placed in a pit. get that. and turned loose against each other. The fight can go on for hours," he declared. The fight can go on for hours. hear me? (whole body shaking). The fight can go on for hours!"

"Who are the real animals? Who are the real animals? The creatures inside the ring? Or the creatures outside the ring?"

"Barbaric. Barbaric! May god help those poor souls. Hear me."

Talking about why he loves dogs, Byrd said, "The mere petting of these social creatures can lower the blood pressure of humans."

Byrd said he is proud that people perpetrating dogfights "will have to answer to our judicial system. And may god help their souls."

Byrd has given impassioned homily's on Man's Best Friend before. In April of this year, he spent his time during a Senate hearing on the dog food recall talking about his Shih Tzu, Trouble, named by his late beloved wife Erma, who Byrd says said "here comes trouble" the first time she saw the dog coming.

Byrd calls the dog, which sleeps on his bed, Baby.
