Why do some on YA equate someone with different moral values to their own as having no moral values?

Intellectuals like Suthrnlyts are a good example: “I see morals and values going down the drain. The far left has none.”

Does anyone have original ideas on how to make this world weapons free? Starting with the big weapons of mass destruction? I have tried petitioning, demonstrating, asking questions to my parliament and hammering on them. What do you think works best?

There were no signs indicating no parking. When I got to the town police station to report it stolen, I had was instructed to use the emergency call box (outside in the rain). Nobody there would take my police report, or tell me that my car had been impounded. I had to wait an hour for the deputy who stole it, to arrive at the police station (and he was very unprofessional and angry at me). He proceded to write me tickets for parking (with no code violation #), and tinted glass (with no tint meter test reading). Then I had to find a payphone to find out where to go and pay $70 to get my car for 5 miles outside of town.

Can they legally do that? Or should I sue the county? I have to take heart medication and the psychopath deputy effectively stranded me in the middle of nowhere at an undeveloped county park miles outside of town. Don't they normally put parking tickets on the windshield?

Is there even a point in voting anymore? Closer and closer to the election, all the true representatives of the people are weeded out, and whats left are just more of the same: front men of the new world order and inter-dimensional evil beings disguising themselves are republicans and democrats.

Last time, how was I supposed to vote between Kerry and Bush? Two men both deeply connected to secret societies and the illuminati? I think in '08 this will just happen again. Is it true then, every 4 years is just some sort of traditional ritual to make believe that "we have a choice" and we live in a democracy?

She thought that days later after the damage from the planes the buildings were taken down. I guess since I have never met someone who did not know major events I was stuned. Does anyone else know or has come across anyone like that? It was almost a Jessica Simpson is it Chicken (Chicken of the Seas types response to me. This is why I worry when elections are held we have people like this who know nothing about major facts that have impacted our country ovver time.

Since the vast majority of political questions regard Hillary Clinton, would it make sense for her to have her own category?

I keep hearing you guys yelling when you claim the Supreme Court is trying to legislate, or you claim that Congress is trying to manage the war... well, now the President is trying to legislate. Why aren't you yelling about this?

Double standard much?

WASHINGTON -- Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards said he would raise the capital gains tax rate to 28% from 15% and boost income taxes on those making more than $200,000 a year in order to finance tax cuts and other benefits for middle- and lower-income families.

The tax proposal lays down a big marker in the 2008 campaign tax debate and is likely to spur Mr. Edwards's main rivals for the Democratic nomination, Sens. Hillary Clinton of New York and Barack Obama of Illinois, to detail their tax prescriptions in the coming months.

Check this out. These 19 Arabs with little educational background and who were supposedly devout muslims (even though they frequented strip clubs and drank and smoked)sacrificed themselves in a suicide attack for Allah , by infiltrating the most advanced, technological and sophisticated defense and intelligence network in the entire world and all they used were box cutters! They flew planes into the world trade center and the Pentagon, and the guy who flew into the Pentagon executed this expert multi g-force turn that most fighter pilots couldn't make and he only had a few flying lessons! Can you believe that. Wow! where do they get this stuff from!? Some people must just think we will believe anything.

Madison, WI (AHN) - A Court of Appeals has dismissed attempted sexual assault charges against three men involved in necrophilia after it was found that Wisconsin has no law against having sex with a corpse.

Twin brothers Nicholas and Alexander Grunke and Dustin Radke, went to a cemetery in Cassville in southwestern Wisconsin on Sept. 2 to remove the body of Laura Tennessen, 20, who had been killed the week before in a motorcycle crash.

All of my Taiwanese friends stress that Taiwan is an independent sovereign nation, and that its official name is "Republic of China." However, I am having a hard time finding the legal reference whereby the territorial sovereignty of Taiwan was transferred to the Republic of China.

In 1895, the Qing Dynasty transferred the territorial sovereignty of Taiwan to Japan. After 1895, Japan exercised sovereignty over Taiwan and held title to Taiwan territory.

However, in the San Francisco Peace Treaty (SFPT) after WWII, it appears that Japan renounced all rights and claims to Taiwan, but no recipient was specified !!!

If anyone can provide the name of the treaty (and the Article number therein) which transferred the territorial sovereignty of Taiwan to China, I would be grateful.

I visited the library for several hours but the reference librarian there was also unable to locate this information for me.

I live in a small town in a mobile home park in Georgia. We have drug dealers who live here and no one seems to care. The drug dealers live very close to me. What can I do to get them out of here. The one drug dealer lives with his girlfriend and she is pregnant and she also has a 14 year old daughter who lives with them. My husband and I are wanting these people gone. My husband went to the police to let them know what was going on and they just did not care. Who do I have to call to turn them in? What do others do when they have drug dealers in their neighboorhood? I am just sick and tired of it. The mobile home park that we live in has really went down since these drug dealers are living here. Drugs are everywhere and I am tired of it. Does anyone care?

My husband's manufacturing plant just closed and moved its operations to their plant in Jua'rez Mexico. My nephew is an Electrician working for a company that was contracted by this company to install machines from the closed plant here in the states. He spent a month at the Jua'rez plant. Here is what he wittnessed.
Workers make 30.00 per day. Clothes, shoes, medical and child care are provided.
An employee will come to work for maybe two weeks and then send their wife, uncle, brother or sister in to take their place. They will come back to work after a few weeks, no problem.
They may work for a couple of weeks and just get trained for the job they are doing and leave because the GM plant down the road is paying better or working a few more hours.

My nephew was surprised that the company put up with this type of conduct since it would never be condoned here in the states.

It seems these people think we owe them something as part of being world neighbors. I am simply overwhelmed by the stupidity of these pro-amnesty supporters, who think that breaking the law should mean a free ride and citizenship.

Freedom to do mostly anything in this country within small limits. Some persons think that it entitles them to be irresponsible in their actions. Lindsay Lohan and now Nicole Ricci are poor examples of freedom. Freedom to obtain a financial growth does not entitle you to exercise bad behavior. Responsibility to assist and lead as a figure head in a community setting is a more responsible goal. To assist in the
education and the support of youth in this country is a more noble cause. Reap what you sow. Children with guns with no leadership is dangerous. Can anyone see this?
