Some people are so stupid, and they vote for somebody without any idea what they're voting for. Should those stupid people be discourtaged from voting?

Example would be if someone voted for a candidate because they liked their smile only. I've known people who have voted this way, and it's so stupid!

My husband and I borrowed a small amount of money from his mother when we were married. She handwrote on a piece of notebook paper what her "terms" of this loan were. Both our names are listed on her paper. Well at the time we were fine with this and I signed it but he never did. She cornered me to sign it and told me both of us were to do so. Now we are split and she is being a real witch. She is trying to pin this whole loan on me because I signed her "paper" and he didn't but both our names are listed on it. Is this legal and binding? Or can I tell the court what I said here? HELP!

An Attorney filed a motion to the court. This was on a Friday, the motion was filed in court that day and the certificate of service was the same date signed by that attorney. The envelope was not postmarked until the following Monday. The judge made a ruling on that motion Tuesday morning and we did not even receive the motion until Tueday afternoon. What kind of voilation of rights would this be? I am thinking Due Process, but I am also looking for US codes for this kind of violation.

Why do they want this nation to settle mediocrity?

Why don't they want this nation to be more advanced militarily and economically?

Why do they want countries such as communist China to surpass us as the world's superpower?

Is this all part of their anti-American socialist agenda?

Are liberals for America, or against America?

I'm not advocating that the U.S. should be an empire.

I'm saying that we should always maintain 1st place in front of other nations militarily, economically, etc.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

I've met a guy online that tells me he is a Navy SEAL offficer, retired. He is 41. When I told him that I didn't believe him. He produced photos of himself in full combat gear, on a rooftop in Ramadi. Also, a pic in his dress whites with the golden officers trident thingy up on his left shoulder, above a slew of medals. He was standing with his friend, who was also in dress whites.

He also sent me a copy....not real detailed....but, it was from the Dept. of Defense....that had his name, and other info on it.
And, he speaks the lingo, quite well....very convincing.

The reason I don't totally buy the SEAL thing...is that he is married, with kids....and wants to have a nsa fling with me. I mean....don't they have some super strict honor code they go by.....that applies to all areas of their lives?

Any ideas for a little test? lol Just so I will know.

SEAL or not...I'm not a sl*t. But, I am curious if he's being legit.

Thanks!

On 1 May 1996, the German Luftwaffe established the German Air Force Tactical Training Center at Holloman.

The German Air Force Tactical Training Center activated at Holloman 1 May 1996 With the activation, 300 German military personnel and 12 Panavia Tornado aircraft joined Team Holloman. German aircrews come to Holloman for approximately three weeks for advanced tactical training and then return to Germany. The German Air Force also conducts a Fighter Weapons Instructor Course for the Tornado. Aircrews for this course come to Holloman for about six months.

As of November 2006 there are 650 German military personnel and 25 Tornado aircraft assigned to Holloman AFB.

There are numerous reasons the German Air Force trains at Holloman. The area offers great flying weather and has suitable air space. Other reasons are the proximity of Holloman to the German Air Force Air Defense Center at Fort Bliss, Texas and the centralizing of German aircrew training at a single location.

What ever happen to reaping the spoils of war?

Should the USA, tell the UN, that if they do not stand up to the plate and help with Bush's mistake, the war on ERROR, that we will take the IRAQ as part of the USA.

Either way we win.

If conservatives had total control here is what I envision:
A strong military.
Government getting out of our business - for example, cutting out all the wasteful spending on people who do not work. I do not advocate stopping benefits for the truly disabled or other people who REALLY need help, just the sponges. That would save lots of money that could be refunded to the hardworking people of America.
Next, patriotic moviemakers would abound. None of this crap that puts America down. I am not talking about constructive criticism. We should always strive to be better, and that includes recognizing our weaknesses and fixing them. Also, Hollywood would stop making movies that have excessive profanity and violence toward women.

Children and the elderly will be respected. Child molesters would automatically get long jail sentences. NAMBLA would be outlawed.

The ACLU would stop defending child molesters and monsters and stick to REAL issues.
I could think of lots more.

Hugo Chavez, Kim Jung III, Mahmoud Ahmedinejad?
Oh, I forgot. Her VP must be American. She has to pick a demonic socialist from her own political party. Well, she has plenty to choose from.
Who do you think it will be?

Let's be real. In the US, the AVERAGE American is not going to do low-wage janitorial, agricultural or domestic work. When the bills are due and you have no other options, facing hard times we'll temporarily take whatever work we can get. In the past, I have too, but all the while l wanted out and to get a better job. I went to college and so did many of you. Those that don't usually have a trade or skill to get them their "ideal" job. Nothing wrong with any of this. It's the American Dream.

My question is, WHO do we REALLY expect to work in the so-called menial, agricultural, domestic positions?
Americans are hard-working people. We want to feed our families, but face it, it's hard to fill these positions and they don't pay a lot. The CEO of a company makes $100,000/yr while the janitor makes $18,000.

We could pay the janitor more, but then there's inflation and downsizing.

Serious answers and ideas, thanks.
