Hi,

I brought my wife over from Pakistan to live with me in England. She has a visa which expires once two years is up. What is the procedure once this happens? Would we have to re-apply for the visa? Also, what documents would I need to provide the second time round? The same as I did the first time I applied for her visa?

A U.S. soldier broke down in tears Thursday as he testified that he was ordered to shoot an unarmed Iraqi man, and that his sergeant laughed and told the trooper to finish the job as the man convulsed on the ground.

Vela testified that Hensley told him to shoot the Iraqi man, although he was not armed and had his hands in the air when he approached the soldiers.

"He asked me if I was ready. I had the pistol out. I heard the word 'shoot.' I don't remember pulling the trigger. It took me a second to realize that the shot came from the pistol in my hand," he said, crying and speaking barely above a whisper.

Now he is saying we (US) are the ones responsible for 9/11.

He did this to just get Millions of $s of media coverage to Millitant Islam. And then he boasts that they don't have gays in Iran. Well, gays get the death sentence. So, if they are in Iran, they are in the closet.

Then he says there is freedom for Jews in Iran. Well? As long as they wear the color code & pay the extra tax humbled. (Same for Christians).

Do you think that a great mountain of a problem is growing in Iran?

I mean with the nuclear threat?

Some people think it's disrespectful to drape the flag over your cleavage or between your legs....I've heard people protest that, "the U.S. flag is not a c*m rag," But isn't c*m, semen, vaginal fluid a sign of life.

I am interested in doing this kind of photography. Would people find this disrespectful?

When Vietnam invaded Cambodia to get rid of Pol Pot we imposed Sanctions on them,

When the Tanzanians invaded Uganda to get rid of Idi Amin, we imposed Sanctions on them... Now we are being primed to boycott the Beijing Olympics because China won't invade Burma.....

The hypocrisy is astounding........

His criticism was harsher than any Democrats!

"Huckabee said the United States has trusted the Saudis and made them rich, only to see the funds used as “seed money for terrorism,” and that Saudi Arabia and Pakistan will ultimately back whoever can win.

He said the U.S. is headed down one track with Iran and ignoring options besides war — a result he said would greatly please Osama bin Laden"

Firstly, how difficult and expensive would it be to start my own country on my own bought land. Secondly what about taking over a small but fairly developed country such as Cuba.

and more by July of next year. He has also told us that the surge is working and things are looking up in Iraq. If that is the case, why is his recent request to fund the war, the highest single year total????

Just kidding, got your attention though. Anyhoo, I'm helping my little bro w/ a school project. He needs opinions on:
1. Should we legalize all drugs?
2. Should we legalize Marijuana?
2.a.If no, what about Marijuana w/ a Dr.'s prescription?

Please give your answers and a short reason. Also, age, location and race would be very helpful(if you don't mind, if so, no big deal).

Thanks a bunch.

BAGHDAD — On Sept. 9 , the day before Army Gen. David Petraeus , the U.S. military commander in Iraq , and U.S. Ambassador Ryan Crocker told Congress that things were getting better, Batoul Mohammed Ali Hussein came to Baghdad on business for the day.
As Hussein walked out of the customs building, an embassy convoy of sport-utility vehicles drove through the intersection. Blackwater security guards, charged with protecting the diplomats, yelled at construction workers at an unfinished building to move back. Instead, the workers threw rocks. The guards, witnesses said, responded with gunfire, spraying the intersection with bullets.
Hussein, who was on the opposite side of the street from the construction site, fell to the ground, shot in the leg. As she struggled to her feet and took a step, eyewitnesses said, a Blackwater security guard trained his weapon on her and shot her multiple times. She died on the spot, and the customs documents she'd held in her arms fluttered down the street

The healthcare costs associated with these prisoners is alarmingly high - and we don't owe them that. Now that they are no longer any harm to anyone, should prisoners who are old and frail just be released?

Talk about dictatorial heirarchies! Do you see churchgoers voting on their creeds and beliefs? No, you see self-appointed priests who claim to have special powers and authority to make serfs out of the congregation.

Was it because their base is white voters? Don't bother to answer that they had prior commitments. I'm sure they did! I wonder, though, if they would have cancelled everything to attend a debate on the NRA.
