The US helped us British stop Hitler, save and restore Europe, protect all from the USSR. We re-established Japan into a glorious nation. Together developed multiple technologies and develop human rights to stop evil men. Now we find the nation wishing to cripple others, wishing to hinder the development of wealth and rights in other states, wishing to rule the world with an Iron Fist is now the USA itself. From the Iron Curtain the world now must resist the Stars n Stripes Curtain. Don't you agree the USA has now become the very evil dominion that it swore to destroy?

I like that we have a 2 party system, but can't we all agree that gov't shouldn't intrude in economic issues? instead of the democrats and republicans shouldn't it be the libertarians and the republicans?

I FEEL THAT THIS IS JUST ANOTHER WAY FOR COMPANIES AND THE GOVERNMENT TO CONTROL PEOPLE BY THEIR CREDIT SCORES AND A FORM OF DISCRIMINATION AGAINTS ANYONE WITH A POOR CREDIT RATING.

... that the kkk uses illegal immigration to harvest those who are set on ridding america of illegal immigration only to attempt to turn them on other groups such as african-americans, homosexuals, jewish people, and other groups on their 'hate list?'

i saw a study that showed that the kkk uses hot-topic issues such as illegal immigration to collect members and turn them on other groups. its insanity, right?

america was founded on love, culture, honor, respect, rights, and other noble foundations. and yet the kkk is against it all. they use hate, anti-culture, dishonor, disrespect, and try to pry the rights from the people they are against.

if one must be against illegal immigration, then so be it. but why must the klan become involved when its interests are much more vague than illegal immigration?

I am currently covered by a state-enhanced version of Medicare; my family is extremely low-income and this health coverage is far superior to that offered by the private graduate school I will be attending this fall. However, the school is not accepting my waiver form saying that government insurance does not meet the school's waiver qualifications (only employer insurance programs do). Can they do this to me and make me pay thousands of dollars I don't have for redundant school health insurance I don't need? Anyone knowledgeable enough to know whether this is something I can fight legally? The school and my insurance are in NJ.

If the hours that I worked during the 4/29-5/12 pay period I had 40 hours the week of the 4/2h, but only worked 24 hours the week of the 5/6, since I did not work FT hours both weeks charter made the change to PT status effective 4/29 since the change had to occur at the beginning of a pay period. Why could they not have done it mid week or after the second week. Since I worked 40 hours the first week I think that I deserve the status for the week that I was FT I am not getting the benefits that charter promised me. Can someone help me through this to figure something out.

The Navy is not permitted to use sonar off the coast of California in an upcoming training exercise. A federal judge ruled there was a "near certainty" that the Navy's active sonar was harmful to the environment. Environmentalists say the sonar can injure or even kill whales, forcing them to beach themselves on land. Should the courts dictate how the Military trains to defend this Country when there is no absolute proof of destruction to the environment?

Yes, I have the original bill of PO fees payments, after that I talked to a friend who works as Deputy-GM in the same field of industries.

He LOVED the invention and said it's a brilliant one, He wanted it to be manufactured right away, and planing to invite me on a meeting within 3 day's with the GM.

BUT how to convince such hard-headed, old-stylish GM if he asked me: There is no prove that you own the patent yet! How can you rent or sell it to us?

Please HELP me to reply if above question will be asked, so to be ready for unexpected surprises!!

BTW: I just can't wait approx 2 years to get the final Certificate then to start working it out, I really should manufacture it ASAP.

Thanks to every contributer and reader. ByeForNow

The code reads as follows.

(a) Any person subject to this chapter who engages in unnatural carnal copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty of sodomy. Penetration , however slight, is sufficient to complete the offense.

(b) Any person found guilty of sodomy shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.

Does this only pertain to consensual anal sex between homosexuals and anal rape of either gender? What does "unnatural carnal copulation" mean exactly according to the military? Why?

If anyone answering is a member of the military could you please leave your rank? That'd be just super.

If you look at cities that have a hispanic population of 80% or higher you will see a city with hispanic elects in office solely..... I consider this a form of racism in itself.......this is my biggest concern about the illegals...poltical...I could care less about the jobs and other bs...thats all secondary to the politcal consequences of legalizing these mass peoples into America!

Right on the cover it portrays those who don't think global warming as man made to be controlled by the oil companies.
I do not believe in it because I am a history buff and know that the earth has always had warming and cooling periods with or without humans being present.
I really don't appreciate being told my beliefs are the product of oil companies schemes when they have nothing to do with my ideas or opinions.
I also really don't appreciate the very political agenda of the global warming adherents.
Does that make me a dinosaur?
No. It makes me a person who thinks for herself.

What are your thoughts on the politicizing and media pushing of certain scientific viewpoints?

I'm not in the army, but my boyfriend is. I know it's completely dishonerable, and I've been trying to talk him out of it, but it seems that he is just dead set on trying to find a way out of the army. He says that he signed up for the wrong reasons and now feels that it is more of a dishonor to stay enlisted knowing that he doesn't truly love serving like other soldiers do. He's currently in AIT in Ft. Gordon, GA as a 25U. He's just absolutely miserable and depressed all the time. Is there a way out?

50 girls all together but cybering with about 5. He's telling them that he's leaving me and that if he hadn't gotten deployed he would have divorced me already. He's cheated on me twice before he left too. Now I don't know what to do because he's telling me the exact opposite. He sends me money every month and sends me jewelry and pictures and stuff. But i've had a few girls message me calling me nasty names and I don't know what to do. Divorce isn't and option for me but I don't know if this is something that has to do with what he's going through over there or if he's just a jerk. He always tells me that he's afraid I'm cheating or leaving him all the time because the military has such a high divorce rate and he says he talks to them to block out how much it hurts to be with me. He said he's not doing it anymore and that he never meant to hurt me. We have four kids and I kind of feel like he's just using me because of the kids. Any advice will help.

I had moved into a room in a house with my own bathroom, living with the landlady. She had done nothing to clean/prep the room or the bathroom for my movein. The room carpet was not vacuumed. The rug in the bathroom looked like it hadn't been washed in years. The bathroom floor was peeling up where it met the walls. Everything was dirty. I didn't want to complain, so I didn't ask for anything to get fixed or cleaned. I just learned to adjust to things. She never did the initial inspection for move-in with me. She didn't offer and I forgot about it.
But ever since I gave my 30-notice to move-out, she has been giving me all kinds of problems. I overheard her to talking to someone about damages and about being the victim. (I had called the police on her this weekend for spitting on me and 3straight days of harassment).
I think that she wants to remodel the bathroom because the guys said something about 3 months. Can she really make me pay for all this? Email for details.

I could use this space to show the foolishness of his Pakistan comments , but I won't . This question is about his public statements to negotiate with American enemies , yet attack American allies . And nothing more .

Negotiate With American Enemies. . . . .. . . ..

Attack American Allies. . . . . .. .

Does anyone at all see any consistency in those two points ?

If anyone does see anything resembling logic in those two points I would surely love to see your rationale . And please include an instruction manual as to how to put those two points together logically .
