Politics & Government - 28 August 2007

Could anyone PLEASE help me with this as I have to make a decision by Friday. I am on the ARD program in Allegheny County Pennsylvania. I am also on disability and with the restitution payment I am supposed to live on $389.00 per month. These so-called "court fees" are $1,200, which was NEVER explained that it would be sooo much money. Which is part of the problem. AFTER you sign the contract, they lower the boom and reveal the amount you thought could only amount to around $200.00. This is decptive, yet they are getting away with it. the whole spirit behind the ARD program is that intigent people can pay their debt and still go on with their lives. I have until Friday to appeal this denied court order to remove these court fees. I have found that upon leaving the local politics, and going up higher, ie, Commonwealth Court or Superior Court, justice is more previlent. So folks, should I appeal this order or what. PLEASE GIVE ME SOME ADVICE HERE AND THE CLOCK IS TICKING.

Do you think other people in the world are impressed when Americans tell each other how rough life is and how they need more handouts from the government?

My father passed away on August 13th. He had a massive heart attack and had very little brain activity,severe brain damage, and no possiblity to recover. He was married to my mother for 17 yrs but for the last 8 he worked out of state. He had a girlfriend whom he shared a joint checking account. I know that's probably a lost cause but he owns vehicles and personal items that she refuses to return. What are my Mother's legal rights? We can not afford an attorney and have been without and income since the week before he passed.

I have a wive and a son.

I'm a great husband and a great father.

Sure, I troll around for 30 minutes a day at work on yahoo answers,

I love my wife and son.

Some conservative yahoo answerors want to stereotype liberals as all being cheating sex maniacs.

Stereotypes just ain't working out in the real world.

Why? So many other countries were outmaneuvered by the Axis early in the war. The British had Dunkirk, Singapore, Malaya, Burma, Hong Kong and Crete. The Americans surrendered at Wake Island, then at the Philippines to a numerically smaller force, in addition to performing poorly in the Kasserine Pass, Savo Island, Pearl Harbor... shall I go on? After WW2 ,everyone ended up conceding their colonies anyway, it wasn't just France.

You get my drift. I'm looking for good answers, not necessarily someone that agrees with me.

I work for a company that has an Air Force contract and we wanted to hang each of the armed forces flag along an aisle. Since the Air Force is our main customer it was suggested we put them first, but I don't want potential customers from the other branches getting offended. I also don't want the Air Force people getting offended if they see Army and Navy before them, but would it also be offensive if I took it out of order?

... or will they hold their word and actually respect secularism and freedom in their society? Because they claim to be ammending the constituion to join the European Community as soon as possible... But is there a threat of falling back into arbitrary Islamic rule? Both of them, (almost) president and Prime Minister ade Islamists... What do you think?

How many people believe this is true or do you think it is another falsified document? (It was about the governments declassified 911 report)

Whats wrong with wanting to know peoples opinion on a topic?

I guess ther are some who dont want the truth to be known.

if you've ever done drugs and learned your lesson you can't ever advise someone else not to do drugs. If you've ever been arrested you cant ever tell someone else not to break the law? meanwile its perfectly alright to get rich off tax payers money while you complain that small businesses aren't paying their workers enough, or we have to pay more taxes to they can help the poor while skimming off the top.

Or did they hide that from you.

They seem to go crazy every time we get a hurricane.

But America had twice as many hurricanes make landfall in 1925-1965 compared to 1966-2006.

Did any Global Warmist tell you that fact?

This might be in the wrong section but let's give it a shot.

Here is a snap shot of Rome just as they were about to fall:

War with Persia (Iran) over the real estate between the Tigris and the Euphrates.

Endemic outsourcing of labor

Huge trade gaps

Huge wage gaps

A Populace no longer willing to defend their enjoyed freedoms (save a few brave souls)

More concerned with chariot races then the state of the failing empire (think Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan)

Problems with stopping unwanted border crossings (one of those crossers, The Goths, sacked Rome in 410).

Politicians no longer cared for the needs or wants of the people.

More concerned with Christianity then proper governing

And the people were beyond apathetic

If this is what Rome looked like just before it fell, and the US is doing the same, are we not headed for the same fate as the Romans if we the people do not stand up and take our country back from the Dems, Repubs, and Corporations?
