And yet the US claims to be the world's sole super power and the "beacon of freedom and democracy". Isn't that a form of dictatorship?

I think that even many repected strategic level people in the US military are respectfully recommending a withdrawl from Iraq.

And how does it feel when Iraqis are paying with their lives over the choices of the American politicians?

How would you feel if your mother tells you this...." You know, i almost had you aborted when i was carrying you in my womb.' ...or I didn't really want to have you,' .....or I tried to get rid of you by taking really harsh drugs, but you survived.

Abortion is an easy way out for out of control sluts!

Your mother should have had you aborted!

Are you offended by this statements? Think about the innocent babies that you murdered.

So sweet of that murderous wretch to make a new video just for us. But I digress. If you've seen this new picture, right next to a picture of him from 2004 didn't something strike you a bit odd? Nobody's hair naturally turns silver grey to dark black naturally, and this guy is supposed to be in primitive surroundings. What the hell? Is he dying his frigging hair? And his right eye looks all wonky and messed up to top it off. To me and my husband it looked like a different man. Did anyone else have that reaction? Really, I don't go around looking for conspiracy theories, but if that's bin Laden I'll eat my socks (and trust me that wouldn't be pleasant).

My husband is in the army in Yongsan, Korea. He wants me to join him in November. I'm not sure how everything is supposed to go but he says in the mean time, I need to get my passport. I just got my military id card and am now cover by tricare. Is there anything else I need like a visa cause I've heard a lot about that too? And also, we are living off base and from what I understand, it is expensive but he says after 3 months, the army will help us pay. Can anyone tell me more. I'm not sure on exactly what to do because he says I can just pretty much show up as long as he lets his commander/seargent knows and if he doesn't f@#^ up, as he puts it...

i was pushed into a window, received scratchs, finger swollen and possibly sprained, and my arm was hit with his car door as he drove away. police were called, and told them details but didn't go to doctors yet[wanted to just forget it]. i am truly hurt though,[now filled with major back aches and a protruding bone on my shoulder,too] and want to know if there is anything i can now do, rather than let him get away with it scott-free

HE WAS CONTRACTED MID JULY TO PAINT OUSTIDE OF OUR HOUSE AND STILL HASN'T FINISHED BY THE BEGINNING OF SEPTEMBER!!!!!
We paid him half up front, with the balance to be paid on completion. The contract we signed said he would be finished no later than August 9th.
The job he has done so far is patchy in places, dribbles of different color of paint runnning down side, bare exposed wood in parts etc, etc, .
He always has excuses , turns up when he likes ! Rarely has done a full days work.

HELP...Legally can he come after us for balance if we find someone else to finish this botched job.....
HE IS THREATENING TO PLACE A LIEN ON OUR HOUSE AND SUE US!!
This is becoming very exspensive.... !!!!!!!

My friend is leaving for Army basic training at the end of the month. I'm wondering what the likelihood of him being sent to Iraq is, and what the alternative would be if he's not.

I don't know a lot about this stuff... I'm really freaked out right now because I only just found out he's signing up, and it's coming on really fast. If you could just give me some idea of what he's in for, that would really help... and none of that crap about "he'll be different" and stuff, I don't really care to hear that all over again.

steadily pass a bunch of laws and make a lot of policies that drive the country over the edge of a precipice (see foreclosures, tradebudget deficits, illegals, perpetual warfare, etc...) and then ...they will come back and say they are the ones to take us out of the dire straights and they will blame the rest of the world as conspiring against the USA, and say that we will have to help the world to become more like the USA by force, and get them before they get us.?

My best friends cousin is in a big mess. She was always known as lets say apple banana, but then when she went to get her SS card they said her name was apple peach. Somehow she got through school as apple banana. Apple peach is her dads last name and she doesn't know her dad. Her mother never talks about her dad and doesn't want her to know anything. When you get your birth certificate you need to know your name so what should she put? What I think is that if your social says peach than your birth must say peach too. Is this true? Also then how did she get through life as banana? Too confusing for me so I'll ask you. Oh yeah and all of her school IDs say apple banana but how could she get something that says apple peach if her ID says apple banana? Alsoo her mother never married her father so yeah. Please help her and my brain!!
