Politics & Government - 2 August 2007

I haven't been watching MSNBC lately, so who exactly are we blaming this one on? Did Bush fire some inspectors, or did global warming cause the rebar in the concrete to weaken?

I want to get up to date with the blame game.

Or is the left giving up on this one? Should I wait for the Republicans to blame it on gay marriage, or Saddam Hussein?

... Clinton's failures?

Can I say it one day later? One month? One year? ... when you complain about Bush.

He's a self proclaimed pedophile. He's taken thousands of pictures of little girls he's attracted to, ages 3-12. He posts them on his 'girl love' website where god only knows who can look at them... BUT then he gets mad when police put out a bulletin with his picture, warning parents to watch out for a guy that may be taking pictures of their children.

It seems to me that Liberals don't mind discussing who is more patriotic if patriotism is defined as redistributing income and funding their beloved Nanny State. Only if patriotism is defined as supporting America do they get testy and drone on about 'McCarthyism.'

What is it with some people, if you disagree with them you're a racist, or if you're against affirmative action you're biased agasint minorities, or against illegal immigration you're biased agasint people who migrate here illegally. these people think everyone who disagree with them are biased or racist,
I had a great link to show you but it was from wikipedia, and we all know they are biased agasint conservatives, so I cant use it.

I had a commitment agreement with my employer. It was a two page printed agreement produced by them. Some terms on the first page are material and are against me, but do not bear initials on that pages by me. I suspect that the page has been replaced (I can not prove). Are those terms valid or disputable?

Hey, I was going through Alaska laws, and apparently:

Are there any situations when an underage persons can legally possess and consume alcoholic beverages.

Yes, if the underage persons are not on licensed premises and the alcoholic beverages are provided by their parents, legal guardians or spouse over the age of 21 years.

The Nazis also put in jail or executed people who disagreed with them.

The Dems would never do something like that. Right?

Here is a descent hard working god fearing Christian that deserves your respect. This man served his country flying jets in the National Guard until his HONORABLE discharge. He earned a Harvard MBA! Kept us safe since 9/11, smoking hot economy with a very very very low 4.5% unemployment rate. Saddam dead.

Just an all around great guy who has brought Honor and Dignity back to the White House after those awful Clinton years.

You have to admit LIBS. It's kind of nice having a President who does not spend all his time in front of special prosecutors, Grand Juries and Impeachment Hearings! The kids in my bible study class were embarrassed that the President Clinton disgraced the office like that. Now, they look at Bush with pride!

Really, what do they teach in those fancy schools? Mindless idealism?

I knew as a teenager that people in the middle east were bitterly factionalized, and have been for thousands of years...

If it isn't already. Many people stated that America was headed for dictatorship by the end of Bush’s second term. Do you believe that they were correct? Whether any American has civil rights will be decided by the discretionary power of federal officials. The public in general will tolerate the soft dictatorship as its discretionary powers will mainly be felt by those few who challenge it. the last chance for for Americans to reaffirm the separation of powers that is the basis of their civil liberties. What are your thoughts?

A daughter has written checks to herself and signed her mother's name. They have had a very close relationship and still do. The daughter has paid back the money that was not spent and is truly sorry. Her mother has forgiven her and accepts the returned portion as full restitution and does not want any prosecution.

Now the tricky part...The mother's brother (uncle) is now power of attorney. Not the normal one page form but 10 pages, covering anything imaginable and some. Uncle is threatening to press charges if the close daughter doesn't stop being a part of her mother's life. Can he, as agent have charges brought against the daughter even though the money was taken prior to uncle becoming the agent? (1-2 mos.)

I can't believe what has happened. Mother was of the notion that a trust was being set up. Sister has not had the same relationship over the 30+ years and is now somehow convining the agent to make up for favored past of close daughter, with his control and mother's money

Most polls are manipulated to show favorably whatever viewpoint they are polling about. How can they be taken seriously, and who really cares what people on the street think anyway? Most people on the street couldn't tell you who the Speaker of the House is, or even what the capital of California is. Why do polls matter and why is everything I see on here based on the latest ones?

A few months ago my boss mentioned at my year offering me health ins or an equivalent raise. When the time came, he asked me to be patient b/c the company was in a slump. This sparked me to keep my options open and start looking for another, better opportunity. I have gone on 1 interview and am supposed to know something by tomorrow. Unfortunately, someone got into my bag under my desk and saw some classified ads and he asked me if I was looking yesterday. I lied and said no b/c I knew that would set a horrible mood and I do not have another job yet. He asked again today with seriousness and I couldn't lie. Now, I am to tell him when he gets back whether or not he needs to put an ad in the paper. I DO NOT HAVE ANOTHER JOB YET! How am I supposed to say yes and then the 1 interview fall through and be able to survive? It's not a crime to look and I feel as if he is backing me in a corner. Can he do that? How can he make me either give a notice or promise to stay? I live in KY. HELP ME!!!
