Now before you say no, expunged means that they no longer exist, I must clarify that in my state it simply is used when they seal your record from the public. A court order must be received to view the contents.
I want to work at an airline but they do FBI and Customs background checks. Would my expunged case from when I was a juvenile show up?

I did until I saw how it is taken, people have to enter a fair that cost 35$ to get in (usually paid for by one of the candidates) and only about 14 thousand people voted in it. Do you think this is a good indication? Why or why not?

My girlfriend is from Australia but wants to live here in Ireland. She is currently on a working holiday visa that runs for one year. For her to remain in Ireland beyond that, one of the conditions is for us to prove we're in a 'de facto' relationship. For this, we need a joint bank account, but it may be a catch22 because I'm not sure if we can both qualify for a joint bank account because one of the parties is not a permanent UK/Irish resident. I've tried many websites but theyre not very helpful. Does anyone know if we can qualify?

We all want to bring our soldiers home as soon as possible. But, do you think if we start removing large units out of Iraq we may be giving Iran the opportunity to move their military in? Will this put us out of harm's way here at home and will it mean our efforts and lives taken were in vain?

How the US fought the Taliban, and now seeks to pick a fight with Iran because they are/were oppresive, radical theocracies,.... yet the crazed, overzealous bible-thumpers in the government are demanding that United States form all international and domestic policies on thier narrow, hateful, profane interpretation of christianity?

Do they honestly believe a radical Christian theocracy is any different than an Islamic one??

How can they justify this hypocrisy?

My question wasn't defamatory or anything but got deleted with some kind of warning emailed to me. I was just sharing dinner table talk with him and asking whether he took it as a compliment. Please post your deleted questions here for all to consider. John's got a tough skin - tougher than Yahoo 's - he wants you to ask him to give the tough real human being answers (and we want to read them). This is Australia.

I've noticed something, Conservatives always try to deflect criticism of Bushco.
If you criticize him, the response is, "look what Clinton did!" (you can almost hear the false indignation in their deflection).
If you mention the amount of dead soldiers in Iraq, the response is, "look how many died in WW II or Vietnam, we haven't lost that many troops".
ANY criticism at all, they point at someone else and say,"yeah, but look what THEY did". How pathetic is that? They sound like that snotty nosed kid who's been busted but points at others, you know the type.

It seems like many people feel that corporations are not paying their fair share of taxes, are greedy, and are bitter about CEOs making millions(even though a Hollywood actor seems to be very justified in making millions in a cruddy film), but if they paid less taxes to the government wouldn't the corportations be able to expand, and create more jobs, put more money into health care, thus providing more relief and benifits to people rather than some poorly run government program? I realize its a conservative viewpoint, and I consider myself more liberal than conservative, but it just doesnt make alot of sense to me to raise taxes on a corporations. I am interested in hearing different viewpoints, thanks.

I found this in a letter to the editor of a newspaper:

I envision an old Iraqi man sitting at an outdoor bazaar with his 6-year-old granddaughter, who is coloring pictures for her mommy who is working as a civil rights attorney in downtown Baghdad. Her father travels throughout the country as a building engineer. The grandfather's weathered face will gently smile as she asks if he wants her to draw a picture for him. He nods yes as he reflects upon all the hustle and bustle around them.

It wasn't always this way. His thoughts drift back to a time of horrible oppression when he lodt uncles and cousins to the brutal regime of a ruler whose name never deserves mention again. As a convert to Christianity, he knows they smile from heaven at what has now become of their country. After a terrible, bloody transition and monumental human sacrifice where coalition troops, along with his own countrymen, finally brought lasting freedom, he and his granddaughter now rest in an Iraq that is a
