by saying, " Yeah but look at what Clinton did." or " blah blah blah....Hillary.....blah blah blah." Is it because they don't know what to think or say without Limbaugh, or O'Reilly, or Hannity whispering in their ear telling them what to think or say?

Didn't they tell you that deflecting blame and attention onto the democrats only works if you are discussing the issues with a democrat?

if you were sentenced to jail at you're hearing do you go in right away or do you have some time before you go in, especially if you were out on bail prior to your court date?

I am 41 years old. I applied for active duty with no prior military experience. I was denied for my age and because I have 4 children. Was stated" The military will not pay for that many dependants, its too expensive". You have 2 strikes, your age and kids, wouldnt let go. What is your opinion on this?

I recently got assaulted and found out that one of the guys that assaulted me had a knife with him. Thank God i didnt get stabbed. While this happened my friend ran off and left me by myself. knowing that i cant even trust my friends in this kind of situation, i recently bought a pocket knife. Does anyone know the law in regards to pocket knives? If i have it clipped to my belt, clipped with the knife facing in or tucked out (closed of course)? i know that there laws regarding the length. is this for the whole knife or just the blade? the blade of my knife is about 3 inches or so. now, lets say i have the knife on me and i use it as self defense while being assaulted, will i be prosecuted? what will happen? please help me out. Thanks!

Mine is what we see going on there today. What is yours?

Of course, irrational posters will equate this to a slander against the troops. These same irrational people won't admit that the troops are accomplishing their assignments. It is the political assigment itself that is the recipe for failure.

Top news story on fox is Obama not wearing his flag pin and implying he is a terror lover . I cannot believe the shallow depths they take to placate to their viewers . I guess this is hard news in right wing world . I wonder if Craig , torture , Blackwater , Iraq or any real news would just hurt the pea sized brains that watch fox ? Maybe they are doing it not to confuse them with the reality that the GOP is incompatant and only focused on greed and hate . Don't get me wrong I don't like Obama but attacking him for not wearing a pin is nonsense , maybe we should attack any Candidate who doesn't have a yellow ribbon around the antenna .

Anyone agree ? Why or why not .

I'll start.

I'm very proud to be a citizen of this awesome nation. When I say that the U.S.A. is the greatest nation in the world, I really do mean it. It's not just opinion, it's also fact.

The world envies us for our freedom, our #1 military, economy, technological advances, social advances, medical advances, schools, generous money contributions to littler countries like Israel or bigger countries like Africa. They also envy us for our success, our capitalist society, our freedom promoting ideology, and our incredible patriotism for America and our troops.

What prompted me to write this came after from celebrating Columbus Day with activities and festivals.

Americans, whether you're conservative or liberal, who will say that they're proud to be an American right now?

Another aspect of American society that I like are the intense debates between liberals and conservatives.
It shows that democracy is really working!

GOD BLESS AMERICA for She is the greatest nation!

I just got high-speed internet from Comcast and when they came over to install the cable modem, they also cut the ends off all the other cables in the house and pushed them down. This made me really angry, as I'd like to have the option to move my modem to different rooms in the house later on.

They said it's their policy to do this to prevent illegal cable access, but I don't even watch TV. Is it legal for them to cut the cable in my house.. don't the ones inside belong to me?

Has anyone ever been able to change their polling location when they voted? When I leave my subdivision, I can basically look up the road to a church where I'd like to vote. However, my city/county makes me drive nearly 3 miles from my home to the "ghetto" to vote. I feel very uncomfortable in the neighborhood where I have to vote. Do you think I can change the location?

I've also looked at the maps, and the voting location up the road is in the same district/ward/you name it as my home is. In fact, the location I DO vote at is in another ward.

I want to take him to the Mosque in Dearborn Michigan to meet the outstanding Muslims who live in the city/Michigan. He will see these are outstanding people no matter what the Marines have told him. I hope and pray he will become a Muslim and can help the Marines change their attitude. Maybe the Marines can go to Iraq and pass out flowers instead of bullets. Then maybe peace will be at hand.

I am about to receive a restraining order, I don’t want to go to court. I don’t care if this girl gets one on me, I know I was wrong, nothing violent, but just emails and text since we broke up. What will happen if I don’t show up for court? I don’t care what she says about me, the judge is going to order the same RO either way. So why should I go to court I will just have a bad attitude? I don’t care if I ever see her again, and yes I lied to her and will get it either way, so what is the difference? This is not a criminal matter so what difference does it make? We have no kids, and live in the same state. I just want all of this to be over so why should I go to court?

I think if you check your history books, the Japanese Prime Minister and other leaders were convicted and executed for war crimes, despite the fact that the war was perfectly legal under Japanese law.

And, despite the fact that the US organized the trial, they were not tried under U.S. law either.

They were tried and sentenced under international law.

Hmm.
