Politics & Government - 12 August 2007

The emblem for the new party should be something like a long horn steer with an elephant skewered on one horn and a donkey on the other. All policies would be based on common sence and straight down the middle. Myself, I would like to think that fiscally conservitive and socially liberal would do just fine.

Last August I had a stupid idea.

I wanted to try a career in the adult entertainment industry. I was able to find this girl who was 20 at the time, who went to my old college to be my first model for a video shoot.

During our first video shoot we both were nervous at what we were doing so we only did the following for her first video.

1. did a strip tease, and took a shower, while I video tapped, and took photos of her.
2. During the video we both did kiss, and she did let me suck on, and play with her breast.

We were both going to do a full x-rated video like the one's on the interenet, but both of our morals got in the way, so we didn't do it.

Would a police department have a problem with this, would a police department have a problem with this if I were a recruit?

I know this may sound stupid, but this did happen I've been kind of worried, about it because I have to do a polygraph. I just wanted to know if I should come right out, say I tried did this once.

"We are socialists, we are enemies of today's capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are all determined to destroy this system under all conditions." --Adolf Hitler

Don't these two things show the left for what they really are?

Do you really want to vote democrat?

When I was a child I used to want to be a police officer. But after seeing how they treat African Americans with pushing them on the hoods of cars, kicking them around, and with racial profiling I knew that I couldn't be part of that. Now I'm not saying that all officers hate African Americans because there are some that are African American and there are the few White officers that hold back their racist actions.

But in general will police officers every treat African Americans with the dignity and respect they deserve as human beings? I don't care if you are Michael Jackson or Oprah because even if you are that rich if you are African American the cops usually will be shouting at you and treating you like a common criminal.

What would help correct this problem? Lets have educational programs for cops teaching them to be sensitive to people of different races and lets have mandatory testing for steroids! If those cops would stay off the steroids they wouldn't be so angry!

1st off: this is NOT a racist question, my family came from Mexico, so it's not like that.
2nd: If they want to be American citizens so badly, shouldn't they be put to the test to earn their citizenship?
Rather than a "draft" of able bodied, good ole American boys and girls, why can't we DEPLOY, rather than DEPORT these illegals that want to be here so badly.
3rd: If they want a better life here, they should have to make the sacrifice to defend our way of life here.
We should not be asking our 18 y/o American born citizens to do this, so illegals can live a better life safely in America.
4th: I'm not saying to send the women and children, but the equally able bodied men and women -- train them in english and war and make them earn it if they want it.
P.S. I'm sure a loooooot of Americans would love our immigrants for doing this if this were the case rather than trying to keep them out of the country.

Let me guess, it's Bushes or some other conservatives fault. We've been using YOUR ideas because Liberals insisted they knew better.

Those of you on the fence, is this the party you want to vote for? Come on over to the republican side. We'll welcome you.

I got high (marijuana) and the police caught me after i got high. I confessed everything and they found a small amount of weed in my car. They told me i had to go to court. When i went, I had a deal with the DA telling me to attend 15 hours of Narcotics Anon and 50 dollar fine. I thought that there would be many associations like this but i was wrong. I had school and no car so i couldn't get to the court in the specified date or anytime before that (since i was at school on the weekdays and weekends they weren't open) So i recently started a job that required a background check. Everything was fine until my work told me i have to clear the weed charge or else ill get fired. I have been clean ever since i got in trouble but i am afraid to go to the police. What should i do?

We are getting ready to reenlist in the Air Force, and I need to know how the reenlistment bonuses are taxed. What percentage is taken, and is it taken before they split it to give you the half up front, or is it taxed before they do anything with it?

We Americans have seen what we can do when we make our voices heard. Many of us put pressure on to stop the amnesty bill and our leaders did in fact listen.
What if we put just as much pressure on them to try and stop the corruption of the mexican government? What if both American citizens and mexican citizens put that much pressure on the mexican government itself through mass letters,phone calls etc.?
Would any of it change anything do you think?

Please note for people who are employed in this profession, I respect you (well, most of you) and am grateful for the job you do - this question is not to test or annoy you! I've never been in trouble with a bouncer and have been grateful to see them take swift action many times.

The thought just randomly entered my head today that I am wondering can a bouncer legitimately use force to eject somebody from premises or to 'end a situation' by use of force, in other words basically giving somebody a thump.

With most things you are given warnings, such as in a cinema there are warnings posted that state use of recording equipment is prohibited and offenders will be ejected or/and police called. I've never seen a notice in pubs/clubs saying that trouble may be dealt with by force.

It's obvious to most people, but I wonder if someone from a country without pubs/clubs went into one and was set upon by bouncers (rightly or wrongly) could they potentially sue for assault?

I have an (ex) friend, who had some things of mine at her house. I have tried to contact her to get it back, but she did not respond to me, eve though I know she has her sidekick with her at all times. Since I couldn't get a hold of her, I went over today, but I used a key to get in, but her husband was home and said I could get my stuff. Would that have been trespassing if her hubby wouldn't have been there?

1. Bring back the draft with modifications.
2. Males and females (no exceptions) must go.
3. Politicians that vote for war, their kids are put at the front of the line. It's easy to be brave when your neighbor's children march off to war while your children march off to college.
4. The real debate will began only when those that push for war have a chance of losing a love one.

It's obvious to any sane person that the lieberals of today have done nothing EXCEPT criticize and condemn Republicans.

Per a lieberal who answered an earlier question, ..............................

"But anyone from either side who condemns the other clearly HATES America, becuase you hate half its citizens. I'll spend more time with the people who want to support, not destroy, this country, no matter their political party."

Choose one. Explain your answer. Choose wisely.

a. After one verbal warning. Aim for their head. If you can get them to look behind, toss it in their face!
b. Never. That might be illegal, not to mention a civil liablity!
c. As soon as they leave the store, don't let them know that YOU know that they have shop lifted, sneak-up behind them and slap them in the face with feces.
d. Chase them down, then do #2, squating on their face!

I was planning an event with some of my friends in College Democrats, and I suggested that one of our planks that we talk about be amnesty for illegal immigrants. They said no one would ever come to our meetings if we so much as breathed that word. I know that Republicans are dead set against an amnesty (despite the fact that Reagan approved one), but why would it be a problem for Democrats like me? When did amnesty become a bad idea?
