If you are an American, that is.
If you are an Iraqi, we already know you don't feel safer. Once again, allow me to apologize on behalf of America for that.

No new laws could be passed on the State or National level for one year. What would be the result?

Story link for all the Miami/Dade liberals who still cant understand...
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070805/ap_on_go_co/congress_energy

quote 1
Republican opponents said the legislation ignored the need to produce more domestic oil, natural gas and coal. One GOP lawmaker bemoaned "the pure venom ... against the oil and gas industry."

Democrats avoided a nasty fight by ignoring — at least for the time being — calls for automakers to make vehicles more fuel-efficient. Cars, sport utility vehicles and small trucks use most of the country's oil and produce almost one-third of the carbon dioxide emissions linked to global warming.

quote 2
Republicans said the House bill did nothing to increase domestic oil and natural gas production or take further advantage of coal, the country's most abundant domestic energy resource.

once again this is the liberal agenda of the pelosi/reid regime run amuck. when you leave that much on the table to be thought out later how is this right?

The nation, whether they know it or not, has gotten 2 great lessons in constitutional law this month. First, the Senate tried to force Presidential advisors to testify about Presidential decisions. This violates the balances of powers. Second, the Justice Department seized official documents from a legislator's office and a court has demanded those documents be returned.

While one branch may investigate illegal actions taken by another, they cannot make broad claims to access documents or testimony from the other branch which are not shown to be linked to an illegal act.

Hence, the Congress was correct in demanding that Nixon turn over tapes which related to a known crime that occured. But, the Congress is wrong to demand testimony from Rove or others regarding to firing prosecutors, because there is no underlying crime. (The president has full discretion to fire federal prosecutors and does not need Congress' approval or oversight.) It's a clear case, but libs will lie.

Assuming that the csi kind of stuff with the fingerprint database on the computer and crap is actually true, does joining the army get my fingerprint added to that? I'm not so sure I'd want to join if it means I'd have to wear gloves if I later became a burglar =(

That Left-leaning liberals and Bush bashers will automatically say it is a conspiracy?

Sad, but probably true.

Today, liberals consider any reference to "McCarthyism" as an automatic pass, for any pro-communist or pro-soclialist behavior. The McCarthism oppression, To Kill a MockingBird" and your teachers inspiring you with abortion rights, are the first rites of entering into liberalism & socialism.

What about Jane Fonda betraying P.O.W.'s who thought they could trust her when she sided with the Viet Cong.

Danny Glover having to be separated with a firehose and crowbar, from Chavez.

Timohy Sarandon and Sean Penn running to embrace any enemy of the USA.

Aside from McCarthy's extreme and aggressive style, was he really wrong? Were any of the people he pointed a finger, anywhere as hideous as Fonda, Penn or Timothy Sarandon?

If you are unfamiliar with the FairTax, here is a definition:

The FairTax is a bill in the United States Congress for changing tax laws to replace the Internal Revenue Service and all federal income taxes (including Alternative Minimum Tax), payroll taxes (including Social Security and Medicare taxes), corporate taxes, capital gains taxes, gift taxes, and estate taxes with a national retail sales tax, to be levied once at the point of purchase on all new goods and services. The proposal also calls for a monthly tax rebate to households of citizens and legal resident aliens, to "untax" purchases up to the poverty level.

Does anyone know if you give a deposition and the next day remember something that corrects what you stated as fact if you can admend the deposition or what? I had to give one Wednesday and the next morning when I woke up I realized a mistake I had made and emailed my attorney explained the error and requesting a correction. Is this possible or will it work against my case?

I will be taking my LSAT (Law School Admission Test) on Sept.29th, and it is taking over my life it seems like. I have been having these excruciating headaches, stomaches, and a backache, not to mention extreme dizziness. At times, i forget whether i locked the front door or not, amongst other things. I am way too anxious about the test to be practicing like i had before it was nearing. I am just helpless. Do you have any advice or suggestions on what i can do??? Any sort of help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I am born and raised in the U.S. but I no longer want to live here. I have seen the judicial system get more corrupt every year. And there is no "freedom of speech" or where they choose to allow it serves them(the govn't) only. The system is so screwed up that a hard working citizen like my mom can't get any help for serious medical problems yet a perfectly healthy 25 year old can be on "welfare" and get everything for free. I'm sick of it so...

I've decided that I'm going to move to Britain...yes I know all that it entails but it's what I want to do.

My question is...
1)Should I stay here and go to college and then get my degree(most likely journalism) and then move, or should I move right after high school?

2) Are Americans who become British citizens accepted over there? I mean...do people accept them as one of their own?

Any personal insight is great as well...

She always said she wasn't going to run for office. I wonder what made her change her mind. Not sure, but I'm still going to vote for her, just to get something different in the oval office. It can't get much worse. And I'm not even a democrat.

Won't she feel that she has already reached her goal by becoming the first woman president?
Will she decide to just play it safe, and not make too many waves?
