In my opinion, when the leftists start to become rabid and hateful, the President must be doing a great job!

Why don't all the "British" people on here who constantly bang on about how far down hill the country is going, how we have gone to the dogs just simply leave if things are so bad?

Rather than moan all the time that our democratically elected government should not be in office just because you were one of the few who voted for Nasty Party, instead of whining about immigrants 24/7, become an emigrant!

Question: Who said "We will bury you without firing a shot."??

deleted: they have pretty much accomplished this agenda with the assistance of the ACLU and the liberal courts who allow sociopaths to be released and committ henious atrocities against average american citizens living their daily lives. i have seen much in my years, there are no heroes anymore. the main issue is that no one wants to accept consequences for their actions or personal responsibilities. it is always someone else's fault.. the ACLU is a big factor in that. movies and games that glorify sex and violence and desensitize our childrene to suffering. athletes who are paid obscene amount of money and musicians glorifying thugs and violence and degrading women and they have no morals or ethics. hollywood, the media, unethical politicians ..etc

my stalker is the one agaist free speech.

An ex girlfriend of mine, still a friend, got pregnant will a very abusive person. She plans to secretively abort the 4 week pregnancy and tell everyone that she miscarriaged. I have no idea what will happen after that. Her now ex b/f calls her work non-stop harrassing her co-workers about giving him information or else.

Right now, I fear for her safety. This person from what I hear from her dad is very screwed up. What should she do about taking care of this? How do you get someone to stop calling you at work?

Also, what are the legal ramifications about not telling the "father" that you aborted the pregnancy?

Thanks.

Somebody I know has been told over the phone by the police that they have to go to a police station (about 200 mile round trip) where they will be arrested and questioned under caution for a crime committed in that area. They have been advised to take a solicitor. Is this normal procedure?

I'm from Ireland and I find American news too commercial and not taking journalism seriously.

Print news is similar, but TV news is very flashy with a lot of graphics, and the amount of commercial breaks is annoying.

Also, interviews are short and really only have sound bites with the reporter then quoting parts of the interview, which could lead to misinterpretation of taking things out of context, which both conservatives and liberals seem to do alot.

So, what do you think of American news?

Several parents using my local YMCA for their kids' after school care are having problems getting the school board and department of transportation to make an exception on our behalf because we only need the school bus to take the kids from this one school to the Y after school because the Y is only open after school. The transportation department will only approve a bus route if it is for both before and after school. How can I word this effectively? We are only talking about one bus picking up several kids making one pick up and one drop offin the afternoon.

I see Democrats sometimes talking about freedom but, seriously, do they have any ground to argue that they're the party in favor of freedom?

They also get support from the pot smokers, the homosexuals..... The Democrats will never legalize pot and if they make gay marriage legal it will be through the courts, not the legislature.

How many people think that Hillary is going to be elected as president? Do you think that the world is ready for a women president? Do you think that Barack Obama even has a chance because he is black? This is not about race or about gender. I just want to know what other people of different races and gender think. Im a black female just to clear things up.

My family and I were victims of a home invasion where weapons were used and property was stolen and destroyed. A next door neighbor was an accessory to the crime and other neighbors witnessed the attack and did nothing to help, not even call the police. We decided to cooperate with the police and four assailants have been identified, arrest warrants issued and one has been caught. Needless to say my family and I are living in fear as retaliation is a very real possibility. Also given the the neighbor's involvment we don't feel safe on the block. For peace of mind and safety concerns we feel it would be best to move. My landlords owns many other properties & I have asked to relocated at my expense to one of those but have yet to receive a response. Under the circumstances would I have a legal right to terminate my lease once another home was secured.

Who/what do you think the Republicans are going to blame for this economic collapse?

I mean I have never seen such fear in people's eyes and voices as we are seeing on the cable financial news channels as I do today. Even Warren Buffett.

The first Diesel engine ever made ran on Bio Fuel made from Peanut Oil. Rudolph Diesel's vision was for it to run on Hemp.
(I suppose if we did switch to HEMP Mexico would still be a major energy supplier.) (The exhaust might make us more docile?)

Existing Diesel engines can run on Bio with minimal problems. New Diesel engines can run on it with NO problems.
Some municipalities use it exclusively in their fleets.

There will always be a place for fossil fuels but if the use of Bio Diesel became pervasive and diminished or illiminated the need for imports, how do you think the Geopolitical Landscape would change?

PS: Please don't speculate that this wont happen because it already is.
