70% of the American people say "Stop the war in Iraq" but Bush will not heed the will of the people. Why?

My boyfriend and I found out last year that he has a child from 16 years ago. The mother never told him and in fact moved away after their "1 night stand". She was 18, he was 14. He did the DNA test & he is the Dad. Now Wisconsin is making him pay 16 years of arreages plus current weekly support. How can that be, when he never even knew he was a father until 8 months ago? And what about statuatory rape he was only 14. We now live in New Mexico so it is very hard to fight Wi from 1000 miles away. What should we do? Does anyone know of any legal (low cost or free) help we can use?

I did something really stupid. Like an idiot I stole 2 small knifes from Walmart when I could have bought them. The guy said that I have to pay a $150 fine. Will I have a criminal record? The police weren't called or anything.

My bro left his wife for 2 days because she kept their children in the same dirty diapers all day and wouldn't clean house. She took their 2 yr. old downstairs to mom's and left the 1yr old in the playpen all day. He went back to clean because she didn't clean the house and change the kids again and mom's really upset. He decided to stay to make sure the kids are taken care of and to get her to leave the apartment because she neglects the children while he is at work or she leaves them downstairs at mom's all day. Now she wants him to stay gone so she is going to lie tomorrow at the court clerks office in order to get a restaining order so he is not allowed at his apartment or his mother's because he live's upstairs from her. What can he do to get her in trouble for filing under false pretenses?

I am a libertarian who leans more to the conservative side, and I believe I could be a Goldwater Conservative based on how I agree with Goldwater on several issues.

OK they didn't accept that Iraq was a hot bed of international terrorism with the power to kill everyone in 45 minutes. A viewpoint built on fact alone but tell me why do you hate the French? No-one will think badly of you if you repeat the fallacy that you saved them in two world wars.

Don't go by party, pick the person...and who would you have run as vice president with him or her?

Be honest...and no skipping out...saying there is no choice...pick one...and stick with it (knowing what you know today)

Me and my family (myself, my wife and our 3 kids) spent some time in the US last year and we liked it so much we want to move there to live.

My wife has a very good job I wont say how much she gets but it is a very good job and we would have financial backing from my parents as well.

My mom has dual citizenship and is both a US Citizen and a UK National with the right of abode and my grandmother is a registered full blooded American Indian. Can someone help me out with this as I am not sure of the process of moving to the US.

I have been looking on the government websites but have not found any real information that actually helps me.

Anyone got some advice as to what me and my partner would have to do (my partner has no connection to the US through her family like I do through mine)

There would be me, my partner and our three kids (6, 4 and 3)

Thanks for all your help

I live in Orange County and have received a parking citation in the city of Cypress. I was wondering if I decided to contest the citation, do I have to show up in court after the request for the contest has been reviewed. All it says on the ticket is that, "You will be notified by mail of the result of your administrative review."

Iif I was President, I would sign an executive order allowing me to personally choose and oversee the punishments for convicted criminals. For example, if I was President, I would personally punish Michael Vick and his buddies for their animal abusing. I would have them arrested, I would send them to an arena, and I would have cops beat the crap out of them and tie steak to them and have the pitbulls they abused tear them apart in public to show I am no-nonsense. If that failed to kill them, I would personally execute them in front of everyone by shooting them. I would have public executions of murderers and other capital criminals or other punishments, like dragging the criminal behind a car throughout a city, having a public stoning, cutting his body parts out in public, having animals kill the criminal, or sending the criminal to a gas chamber.
