Even they admitt public schools don't work and there are plenty of great non religous private schools out there. Why not give our children the best shot at a great education?

I have been told (by a superior in my company) that this is the reason we shouldn't purchase alcohol for employees at, say, our annual Christmas party. Because if someone leaves the party drunk and has an accident and kills someone, then the company could be sued. I am under the impression that in New Mexico, which is where the company is, the law holds the seller of the alcohol liable, rather than the purchaser. Can anyone shed some light on the facts?

My question is if my windows are always down and when a cop stops me can he make me pull my windows up and see i got tints and give me a ticket? Also can he make me change my exhaust if it is too loud? thanks I live in Los Angeles, California

Ok, so my brother just moved out on his own. He went to turn on his utilities -- electric, gas, telephone all that necessary stuff. Anyway,the companies asked for his social security number which turned out to already be in their files.....but under the wrong name --a relatives name for that matter!!
How is this? Can somebody just give any social# when turning on their utilities? I thought all those companies like AT&T ran a credit or background check to make sure that all given information was correct -- don't they?

Now my brother just recently went to get a loan and guess what?....uh-huh....same relative's name pops up -- using his social again!!( He claims to be innocent and that somebody made a mistake....huh)
My brother has already gone to the social security office and they said that all information under his ss# is correct......all under his own name.

How did this idiot of a relative do this? What should be done? HOw do we straighten this mess out??

I call him a terrorist because he gassed his own people during that time and Regan put a blind eye to it. Where was the conservative condemnation? where was your sense of humility and God fearing love to human life as claimed by your bible thumping lies?

Now our country can heal a little from the wounds Alberto Gonzalez has created.

Our president has GOT to be kidding for the statement he made.

"It's sad that we live in a time when a talented and honorable person like Alberto Gonzales is impeded from doing important work because his good name was dragged through the mud for political reasons,"

Bush said before leaving Texas for Republican fund-raisers in New Mexico and Washington.


Every time someone in the Republican Party resigns Our Country Heals it’s wounds that the Republican Party created.

May question is: tell me I’m RIGHT, anyone tells me that I’m wrong must have their head underground like an Ostrich.

I just read an article in the newspaper about Hillary Clinton's defense of using nuclear weapons against Bin Ladin. The article explained that Clinton did not approve of Obama's refusal to justify using nuclear weapons agianst Bin Ladin. Personally I agree with Obama that it would be a grave mistake in deploying nuclear weapons when we are supposedly trying to stop others from using them. I want to hear your thoughts on this issue...

P.S. I do award points to the most throught provoking answer, regardless of its political views

listen to some of these descriptions of 20-somethings living with their parents:

kids that don't pull their own weight.
kids that need their parents for support.
kids that don't have an identity of their own.
kids with a sense of entitlement.

sounds like the result of a liberal upbringing. question for libs: what happens when NO ONE in society pulls their own weight?

the seller in Hongkong, told me that he sent the item on23rd July, but the item haven't arrived yet. it's a small and light memory card. I told him that ask the post office and find out where is the item.
He doesnt answer to that question.
I've asked him about the item 4times, and he's answered my question all the time, but he's already not registered on ebay.
I'm afraid that I can't get a item even if I already paid.
What can I do to get an item or refund???

I understand that there is an issue with the sheer number of undocumented that are here. I Have read on several posts that people don't want to provide basic education (K-12) to children whose parents are not citizens, or, if they are not citizens. This amazes me, as, I tend to think that if we had the children of 12-20 million people not doing anything positive with their days, isn't that a HUGE recipe for disaster? Desperate people do desperate things. Don't you think that gangs would majorly increase? And crimes? I tend to think that people have dreams for their children for tomorrow, and, kids have dreams for themselves. If you were to take that from both the parents and the children, wouldn't you be afraid to go to working- knowing these kids would be just "roaming" while mom and dad work?

The last line of the Declaration asserts:

"And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor."


1. What does it mean to pledge your "lives, fortunes, and honor"?

2. For what causes would you be willing to make a significant sacrifice?

the American Indian way of life and culture was completely overrun by the massive influx of "immigrants" who chose to carry on their own culture and neglect the American Indian culture. We all have seen what has happened to the American Indian as a result.
Fast forward to America's illegal immigration problem we face today.

Can you name two similarities and two dissimilarities in comparing our situation with the situation back then?
