Politics & Government - 11 September 2007

The pentagon said months ago that the military will be completely tapped by April 2008 and would have to start reducing the level of troops by then.

Why is Bush going to pretend that it is his decision versus reality?

Use whatever context you like. I think this is one of the fundamental questions in politics.

They'll be sheltered, fed, clothed, paid and finally serve society! Fewer widows shown ranting on the 5 o'clock news - it's a win win.

As memory serves, Paul only had 2% in the polls. However, from the general views expressed by several media sources and the general "feel" on yotube is that Ron Paul has a larger following on Youtube. So, if true, will it help Ron Paul? More importantly, would it even matter to his campaign if it did?

I'm very confused about my right to refuse a search of my car by a cop. (this is hypothetical) Okay, say I got pulled over and I play it cool even if i had some sort of illegal substance in my car, and I refuse a search. Then doesn't the cop normally call for a search warrant anyways? Then isn't that really not a right to refuse search?

Same with being breathalyzed. You have the right to say no to one, but can't you get arrested for being suspicious then the charges laid even harder, despite innocense or not.

To me, that doesn't sound very fair or logical. Any help? Maybe I have some of this misunderstood, but please don't preach to me about how I shouldn't do drugs or drink and drive...THIS IS HYPOTHETICAL and I'm only asking because I'm studying government in school and was afraid to ask my teacher.

The worksheet says:

A political dissident from a foreign country decides to leave his homeland and move the United States. This was a difficult decision, since he was very wealthy. If he left the country, his government would not allow him to take his wealth and most of his money and property would be fortified to the state. Also, if he entered the US with a large sum of money he would need to explain the source of the money, and the government would not let him enter until he had clearance from his home country.

He decided to convert all of his assets to gold bullion and hid it for the trip. He was arrested entering the US and charged with smuggling gold. The US border Agents found for gold bricks. Each was a standard 15cm x 8cm x 5cm in size and had a total mass of 18.864 kg.

Three days later, the suspect was released and the charges dropped.

Explain why. Be complete in your explanation, as if you were giving evidence in court.

Sen. John Warner (yes, a Republican) asked Gen. Petraeus if our mission is making America safer. He said that he thought what we are doing was the best course of action to achieve the objectives in Iraq. Warner repeated, "Does that make America safer?" and Petraeus said, "You know, I don't know actually".

If the lead General of the armed forces in Iraq does not know if our involvement there is making America safer, isn't it time to take a long hard look at what we are really doing there?

Rep. Dennis Kucinich, Democratic presidential candidate and no stranger to contrarian views, was the sole congressman Tuesday to vote against the House's Sept. 11 commemoration resolution. Tuesday's nonbinding resolution was a relatively short document. It had 12 "whereas" clauses (Snip) "to save our nation from being destroyed from the lies that took us into Iraq, the lies that keep us there, the lies that are being used to set the stage for war against Iran"

I have been working, part time for the RV Park I live in here in Texas for over a year. My last date of doing any work was the first week of August. I had a spoken agreement with the park manager/part owner. The other owners took the financial aspect away from the manager. However, I had worked 20 hours in August..the first week. I received a letter from the other owners during the second week of August that as of AUG 1 my services were no longer needed and I would not be compensated in any way. Can they BACK DATE that like that? Or can they only NOT pay me for any thing done after the date of that letter? I was not given the letter until 8-10 days after I had done the work. I have contacted the ones who sent the letter, asking ONLY for what I had coming to me in August. They basically said, sue the manager, who is their sister, not the rest! Is this legal? Dont they have to pay me what is owed prior to the date I received the letter? Any help would be appreciated.
