First it was the fugitive from justice fund raiser. Now she has hired convicted felon Sandy Berger to work on her campaign. Is she just as sleezy as her husband?

Since I have cancer and most likely live more than a couple of years, I feel I won't be alive when the last soldier dies in Iraq much less when the last one comes home.

A soldier's view of support.....

1. Get us the best equipment you can get your hands on. Not just the stuff some congressman or senator got because it's made in his district or he was bribed to approve it. The body armor we have is not the best. We can and should do better.

2. Down time for soldiers after their tour in combat. Not the 30 days of leave they would have earned staying stateside but some real down time to get reacquainted with their families. In addition, troops are returning stateside to watch our commanding officers give each other bronze stars and medals, do a change of command and then are handed over to the next hotshot who wants to immediately start busting humps in a high speed training cycle designed to help him get his next bronze star and nice bullet comments on his Officer Evaluation Report.

3. Stop opposing pay raises. We noticed even the president himself apparently doesn't think a 3.5 percent pay raise is in order.

I am pro. And think the thought of banning it is insane. How about you, share your views, and be civil.

If I have a boat registered in Florida, can I still put it in the water in Alabama and still be completely legal with just the Florida tags? Or will I have to register in Alabama also?

And yes, it is insured, full coverage.

Please cite some sources.

Thanks!

The address does not contain either P.O.Box or APO. Will it be delivered normally as if to any residential address or because it is a military base are there any restrictions which would cause the package not to be delivered next day?

Liberals in government and in the realm of political ideas tend to court groups and individuals whom they see as disadvantaged. They poise themselves as 'defenders of the little guy'.

Unions, racial groups, women and homosexuals tend to favor Democrats at the polls because of the high concentration of liberal ideology in that party.

Republicans and conservatives on the other hand are largely perceived to cater to big business and money.

The Kelo decision was a case that made it from the city of New London, Connecticut, to the highest court in the US.

The question:
Can eminent domain be used by local government to transfer property from one private entity to another?

The decision would find the moderate-liberal justices in the majority and the unlikely pairing of all the conservatives with the single most liberal justice dissenting.

The court allowed the seizure. The little guy was quashed in favor of an alliance of big business and government.

So I actually read HR. 976 (http://www.govtrack.us/congress/billtext.xpd?bill=h110-976) this morning and realized a couple things.

1. I can't find the pork other than a military family job protection clause. Someone please point it out to me.

2. It'd be paid for by tabacco, not out people's pockets.

3. Would it not follow the philosophy of the Laffer curve (aka Reaganomics)? After all by giving families with lower incomes a lower health care premium would they not be able to put the rest of that money into the economy thus expanding the economy?

4. 300xs the poverty line, as is the language in the bill does not equate to 83,000. That figure was proposed by Spitzer as anyone living in NYC understands the extremely high cost of living. If people are happy with it as is, it also insures people in NJ up to $74,000 as median income in the state is $90,000+.

As an Englishman owns many major US based companies i feel i must ask this.
I DO NOT allow the Americans who i own to carry guns, it is a company policy.The Americans who are under my control accept my rules and i do not have any problems with them.
I feel it is my place to prevent Americans using guns and i hope this will spread all over the USA.
We all know Americans find it very difficult to spot friend or foe and tend to shoot anything that moves, so why give them guns?

I have noticed in the minutes of my friends case, that they put the preliminary hearing tenative to 10/10/07, and then a comment made by counsel states last day for preliminary hearing is 10/16/07.
His next court appearance for the felony conference is set for 10/29/07

If no preliminary hearing is set and continued with, is then the legal rights of my friend due to his right to due process therefore violated and charges dropped?

It is about 2:38 into tape if don't want to listen to all of it.

So the Rush and Bill smear is OK by liberals.

Gee I wonder how much of the Mainstream Media is going to report this?

My guess they are now asking Hillary or Soros for premission.

I worked for a printing business and when the old owner sold, the new owner took over and never gave me a paystub. This past Friday (10/05/07) he told me it was my last day. On the day he bought the place, 08/01/07 he said he'd give us progress reports and the like. I never got one. I just got fired.
WIth that all being said... I never got a paystub the entire time i worked there. Aside from asking him, what legal actions can I take that won't cost me a gazillion dollars?
What he is doing is illegal, right?
I never got a paystub, or saw what I was being taxed for...
Please help, I'm a veteran and never had this happen to me before...

The Hooded kids are harrassing me. The police told me if I lay a finger on them, I will be arrested. I want them to stop bothering me but I dont want to go to prison. I was harassed for a year, me and my family were attacked, motorbikes broken while police kept me inside my flat. Knives pulled on me, I defended myself with helmet and almost got locked up. It never stopped so I had to leave the country. Now Im back and too scared to walk around. Scared of the gangs and the police.
