Politics & Government - 2 October 2007

The bank says I have to have fire insurance on my home, but it's expensive! Where's Hillary? The DMV says I need insurance on my car, but it's expensive! Where's Hillary? My wife says I need to carry life insurance, but it's expensive! Where's Hillary? I say I need homeowner's insurance, but it's expensive! Where's HIllary? If I forgo all this insurance it could leave me without a home, possessions, or a car to get to work, but it sure is expensive! How come Hillary is so focused on one aspect of insurance? Let's have the government pay for it all!

This is going to sound strange, but my college tutor caught me using cocaine in college today. She was angry at me and told me to meet her at her office at 8 in the morning to speak with her and other staff. I'm not a trouble maker at all, I've only been using it because I've been struggling to handle long hours at my job which left me exausted at college, so it was affecting my results in class. I was told it would be a good 'pick me up'. Can I get thrown out for this? I'm very worried.

So far this year all we have heard about is how democrats are going to raise our taxes. Today we have heard even more. Are there any taxes that democrats dislike?

You have to be kidding!! A week ago (give or take) I saw an article in the news (online) that Hillary now wants to donate a $5000 bond into a trust account for EVERY baby born in the United States, which they will be able to access after the completion of high school. Riiiiiight. Who is going to pay for THIS? TAX PAYERS, of course. You know damn well SHE isn't going to donate a penny out of her own pocket. What do you guys think? Another plot to WIN votes. She's full of empty promises. She won't have California if I have anything to say about it. I'm voting this year!!!!!!

I work at a small real estate company in Michigan, and right next door to us is a large brick building with a few different places in it. Interior Designing, Hair Salon, and another place that has JUST been purchased within the last 2 months called "Spa". We here at the Realtor's office are friends with the Hair Salon owners, and they informed us that 4 young asian women work at this "Spa" place, and since they've opened, only men have gone inside. My boss and I decided to go take a look. When you go in, there are no spa products anywhere, and quite a few rooms with closed doors. When we entered, one of the young ladies came out of one of the rooms and closed the door. We asked about their rates and they only said $80/hr. We asked if they had a card, and they don't. We also took a tour and she showed us one of the many rooms - with only a matress on the floor & a candle on a table. We also heard some low pitched noises, what seemed to be a man's voice. Could this be a whore house?!

A Mexican man has been given four more life sentences for killing his wife and three daughters in their Fort Wayne home.

35 year old Simon Rios also received a life sentence last month for sexually assaulting and killing a 10 year old neighbor girl. All five sentences are without the possibility of parole.

A spokesman for the prosecutor's office says Rios is an illegal alien.

During Monday's hearing, Judge Fran Gull accepted a plea agreement that allowed Rios to avoid the death penalty.

He had pleaded guilty in August to the beating and strangulation death of his 28 year old wife, Ana, the strangling deaths of their daughters in their Fort Wayne home in 2005.

Rios told Gull he came to the United States to fulfill his dreams but allowed what he called "the forces of evil" to take over.

He did not say why he had killed his family.

Hope someone can clarify this for me. My DH has just handed his notice in at work as he has a new job. His contract says notice is 'subject to the minimum requirements of section 86 of Employment rights act 1996.So as I see this he only needs to give 1 weeks notice? However, I said that is not fair to the company and he should give them 4 weeks, which he did. Now his boss says he should give 1 months notice, so I said to DH you did, but his boss expected him to put in 31 days notice? I've told DH his boss has misunderstood and the normal expectation for '1 month' is 4 weeks/28 days. Please tell me i'm right

I'm an insurance agent and will I be out of a job if these bills offering free health care to Americans pass? What do you think the chances of every American having health care provided by the government are?

I have heard doctors say this for years . We can have veterans hospitals and charity hospitals but the middle class are burdened with the poor and the rich .
The rich pay only the same rates as the middle class does .

They often seek addiction treatment for their kids and wifes because they are off earning money all the time .

The poor can't afford it and the middle well they break a kids arm once and he learns to stay off drugs and avoid that 15,000 dollar 30 day program . 1200 dollar cast verses 15,000 . I say we need to get rid of insurance all together .

Cancel work mens comp and make employers pay for injuries at work .

If each person only had to pay what they owed instead of what everyone owes divided by everyone we would be better off .

you know... the guy a draft dodging Republican put in the same ad as Osama Bin Laddin and Saddam Hussein,

do they know he had reached rank of Captain and was awarded a Bronze and Silver Star for valor before the grenade incident?

In fact, he was not drunk and "playing" with a grenade. He picked up a grenade somebody else had dropped. That person has since stepped forward.

30 years of self-loathing, and then, finally, the truth
Soldier-turned-senator took blame for injuries, until a man who was there stepped forward

Eliminate the 2-party system and electoral votes and switch to popular votes. I don't think all American voters really understand the elctoral process/2-party system anyway- -I don't.

What is so difficult about switching to popular votes? Whichever candidate has the most popular votes wins.

and you dont know if he is armed or not an you shoot and it kills him, did you do the wrong thing?

I am posting this because I answered this question and I got negative responses for suggesting that you shoot the guy,

I am NOT saying that shooting an unarmed person is ok because its not,

but you have to protect yourself and family, it's not like he is breaking in to borrow sugar

if answering please give your thoughts in detail
not write only 'it's wrong'
thanks
