I was talking to a friend from Slovenia, who agrees with my boyfriend from Norway, who said that in Europe, the free healthcare system is a burden because there are long lines, and the service is bad. But this is merely two opinions.

So, do you think a free healthcare system in America would hurt or better our current system?

In order to get visitation rights to see your son?

The Judge ( a woman ) informed me if I even wanted to try and have visitation rights with my son I had to abstain from sex for a period of at least 18 months!

She said ( judge) my behavior ( MY AFFAIR) was directly attributed to my sons POST TRUMANTIC STRESS, in him witch because of his age (13, going to be 14, in NOVEMBER) he get violent witch is common among males all ages.

She said she could not order me to comply but could have me served with an ORDER OF RESTRAINT to protect my son from my robust sexuality.

I know I'm responsible for the problems in his life at this time but, to lose your son because you enjoy sex, unbelievable.
The Judge pointed out 8 cases supported by the Supreme Court so I have no appeals cause if action!
So once again would you give sex up for your CHILD?

What would your response be, my LAWYER says the ACLU wont touch this verdict.

I want my son in my life so celibacy it is for 18 months.

I'm curious how many liberals, moderates, or Democrats here would, given the right candidate, vote for a Republican instead of Hillary Clinton or Barak Obama.

If so, who would beat them in your mind?

I am fairly liberal-minded, but I recently decided that I would vote for Ron Paul over Hillary Clinton or Barak Obama if he got the Republican nomination. This is strange for me, because I am so pissed off at the Republican party right now that I want it to die.

If ANYBODY else gets nominated, I'm voting Democrat straight-across-the-board... But Ron Paul is amazing: He's a libertarian who believes in leaving hard decisions to the states, which means no idiotic constitutional amendments against gay people would get signed. He is against the Iraq war, and he believes in fiscal responsibility in our federal government. I honestly believe he would be the best possible leader for our country after such a trying time.

He would scale back the Bush administration's power abuse, too.

I've already submitted the application and just received a call from the Navy this morning. I'm qualified, but now I'm still living in Louisville, KY and going to move to Philadelphia, PA soon. Can I go to the recruiter in Louisville, KY to be tested before I move to Philadelphia? If I get into the Navy, can I leave my car at the recruiter while I'm on the ship? How long do I have to stay in the Navy to get paid to the college? After my college graduation, can I go back to the Navy to be an interpreter or a foreign-language educator?

I know this war is very unpopular right now and that many do not understand it due to its unusual nature. But I think that in the decades and centuries to come, this war will be remembered as the noblest of endeavors in which one nation sacrificed for the freedom of another.

Future generations of Iraqi's, if they remain free, will look back upon the U.S. and allies' sacrifices with respect and gratitude, just as today's Japanese honor their former military opponent General Douglas MacArthur.

Just my thoughts.

Yours?

My husband and I have been seperated for 5yrs. We never owned a home,stock,bonds...nothing. But have a child together. We are amicable as far as visitation and child support.. We don't want to have to pay a lawyer for what we are already agreed upon. It has worked for us and our son for 5yrs..Is there a Stature Of Limitations on how long we are seperated to just have the marrage dissolved.....We live in Illinois. Cook County jurisdiction.
Any help would be great... Or does anyone know how to file your own divorce and if it's allowed in my county and state. Some counties here allow legal ON-LINE Divorces...not mine though.

It happened to my daughter in a sudden surprise kind of way with the only explanation being he had to make sure that both nipples hardend. Also,do you think the following was appropriate. She is small breasted and was a little nervous so when he asked her to lay back for the breast exam she jokingly said "I probably dont need to lay back for that" to which he commented " Oh no, they're nice" and asked her if her thighs were sweaty because she was nervous?

I am also quite surprised that no one has tried to kill Bush.
(and i think any attempts would be apprecated by the masses).

the only reason i don't support the war is because i don't believe those young men and women that make up our military belong over there...i don't like the reasons why we're there.

also, my father and my grandfather are veterans of the vietnam war...i'll be damned if people are going to think that i'm spitting on our troops.

If a person gets stopped for a minor infraction of the law, i.e. no seat belt, no signal lights, or anything, and you've just come from church where you took Holy Communion (bread & wine), the wine being a small plastic cup, and the cop smells wine on you while you talk to him, can he get you on a DUI? There are young rookies who would do something stupid like that. That would be a violation of "freedom of religion." What do you think, besides "I'll drink to that!" ?

He sucks at the job. I used to be a supporter of Bush but I'm tired of his leadership and Cheney is always recluse you never hear anything from him anymore (but that is good).
Did Cheney basically prompt Bush to get involved in Iraq?

I think so. I believe in safety and health first. How many LESS people would be killed per year in the USA if guns were illegal and difficult to obtain. The government could subdue and kill violent criminals safely. My Mom's boyfriend legally had a gun and he used it to commit suicide. How many more gun related deaths will there have to be before our government realizes that guns are designed and used to kill. Lethal weapons should not be available to citizens.
