I want to sell dresses at a boutique or on ebay. The dresses would be store bought but I'd then add things too it or change the entire design etc, just using the dess as the base part (adding to or taking away i.e. length or adding lace or fake flowers) since I don't know how to sew from scratch. Does this violate any laws???

Most of their arguments tend to boil down to infantile name calling.

My personal opinion, is that if a person meets a certain criteria for a job and is highly qualified for that position, then they should be paid accordingly. You agree?

I'm sorry to keep asking these questions. But, my liberal friend keeps coming at me with these random accusations against Bush. And, because I haven't seen the ghost stories I haven't read them. And by the way... I am as right wing as it gets and yes i support our troops, namely because I'm am going to be one soon enough... So, please, I dont want anymore hate messages about being a left, because I'm on your side!

Is the country of England our ***** or what?

Sure, they were our mother country, and we are in debt to them for our language, laws, and culture. But now the US is the world leader, and England is arguably a "second rate" country at best.

I just wanted all of the Englishmen out there to know that the only reason that you still exist, is that I have allowed you to live.

CROM!!!!!

as a good man put it: "To comfort the afficted and affict the comfortable"

Thomas Jefferson was a realist.That's why he also maintained that if there was one thing in the Constitution that could never be sacrificed, it was freedom of the press, so that there would always be an effective whistle-blower that could not be silenced. Is it working?

The First Amendment gives us Freedom of Religion. That means ANY religion. Or NONE!

The First Commandment says that one may not have an y other God buy Yahweh. That rules out Hindus and Buddhists. Maybe even agnostics.

We cannot have both the First Amendment and the First Commandment backed by force of law. One msut give way to the other. So which will it be?

If you pick the First Amendment, aren't you being disloyal to God and disobeying his orders? The Bible tells yoiu what to do with "idol worshippers" and unbelievers, and it's not nice. And you can no longer claim that the Government, the Constitution, or the laws are based on the Commandments or the Bible.

If you choose the First Commandment, that destropys the Freedom that America was founded to have, and makes this a Theocracy. ("The worst type of government."-- C.S. Lewis) AND you are unpatriotic.

So pick one.

say that they want government to have as little influence on peoples lives, yet they insist on putting up MORE security cameras, listening in on people, and monitoring everything. its not like i would do something horribly evil, but it doesn't make sense with what they're saying. its just a never ending string of lies.

The term "Nazi" is short for "Nationalsozialistisch", which means "National Socialist". Remind me, who in the US is for 'National Socialism'? ...Oh yea, our buddies the Liberals. Looks like you guys should try other languages then Spanish.

Hello all! I have posted some questions and I am very thankful to all you generous souls for taking time out there to answer these for me. I am an Indian citizen (residing in the US) and I will be traveling from Vancouver to Montreal in Canada. I have my Indian passport with me; but the Vancouver US Consulate may want to keep my passport for additional days. In that event, can I fly from Vancouver to Montreal using a US Driver's Licence?

(Why do they call the Democrats the "tax and spend" party?

The Democrat Controlled Congress with the 13% approval rating is doing what democrats do best; take your money!

"Unfortunately, Democrats have approved a budget that fails to extend the bulk of the 2001 and 2003 tax relief — most of which is set to expire in the next few years — resulting in a staggering tax hike of at least $736 billion. Most notably, the Democrats’ budget fails to extend the lower tax rate on capital gains and dividends and most of the income tax relief we’ve passed, the two provisions that have done the most to spur the strong economic growth of the past several years. In addition to this massive tax hike, Democrats on the House Ways and Means Committee are also proposing another growth-stifling tax hike to pay for alternative minimum tax relief, this one a 4 percent tax hike on higher income Americans and small business owners."
