It seems that what she stands for is just no longer accepted by the majority of Americans these days. Maybe the French can find someone more deserving to give it to.

i apologize. I'm having a very flippant day. Hopefully it will go away soon.

I'm just sick of seeing "Clintons here, Clintons everywhere" Lions and Clintons and bears, oh my"

Bush has been so much more demonstrably destructive for our country, and all they seem to be able to focus on is the poor man's sexual addiction and the fact that Hillary has a brain and isn't afraid to show it.

So, laws are being passed about registered sex offenders having to be no less than a certain distance away from schools, public parks, and other areas for children.

Now, I have a little girl, and the law makes sense in an essence, because some sex offenders just target by looking. And you hear of these crimes occurring more and more (internet making it easier for them).

On the other hand, my grandfather was once a pedophile many many years ago, but has changed. I had lived with him for a while, and I know I can trust him completely with my daughter. He owns land within a short walking distance from a park, and he used to babysit his neighbor's kids, where he would mostly give them jobs to do at his store (And he didn't run it by himself). But if the laws are passed in his area, he'll have to leave, when his crime was over 3 decades ago, and he did his time for it.

So my question is.. Is there no redemption for these things?

In Your opinion, what should be done???

How can I explain to her (in a polite way) the difference between the two ideologies without making her feel like a total idiot? She actually claims to be very liberal, but is trying to recruit people to the Libertarian Party (she knows nothing about it other than its promise of "equality for all")

P.S. Please, please don't take this as a sign that all Liberals are stupid. This is just one isolated case, and it's a rather young person in question.

Just saw on Yahoo News that scientist have determined that Dr. Crippen, an America, was wrongly hanged in London in 1910 for murdering his wife.

Will the U.S. Congress pass a resolution condemning the British government for this atrocity?

Any time Bush scared the republicans with "terror" threats (Bush's terror threats that is) the republicans just handed over billions to wage a phony war.

I mean Newt Gingriche said Bush's war on terrorism is "phony".

So are the republicans embarrased? feel stupid? or mad that Bush stiff armed them and scared them so he coud offer "protection" from the scary terrorists?

Isn't that what the mob does? exortion? so bush stiff arms the republicans and tells them he'll "protect" them. Then the republicans get so scared they give Bush billions in tax dollars to fight a phony war?

Man what a RACKET! litterally.

No wonder I left the republican part. What a scam Bush pulled.

Ron Paul is the only Presidential candidate that reveres our Constitution? Honestly, I'm sick to death of it. To listen to his supporters we should think everyone else is out to use it for toilet paper.

I have to go into court the first of next month because of a traffic violation.. (which I am going to court to dispute).

Never been to court before. Major problem; I am very young to be in court for a traffic violation, so they will be expecting a punk kid, (which is probably what that dick officer told them). What can I wear that would not impress but get the point across that I am serious about what happened?

Sat night my husband was driving the PA turnpike, following group of cars (ours being last of the group) when I saw a cop car parked on the shoulder WITHOUT LIGHTS. We passed, there was another group of cars coming behind us & I saw her turn on her headlights and moving into the group of traffic behind us. I told my husband to just slide in between other cars on the right lane but he didn't think it was for us since everyone on the road was doing 80 at 65mph zone.

She pulled up right behind us and turned on the sirens. I told him to just move over to the right lane and follow since it seems like she's just fishing for cars to pull over. But he pulled over to the shoulder (don't know why!!). So she tickets us for doing 82 on 65. i asked her if she can give us fine and not points, she says she's never heard of such thing.

*do I have a chance fighting this ticket in court?
*can I request a copy of the radar reading at 82?
Thank you!!

this question and answer volley is a perfect example of two serious minds working to make a point.. frankly it doesn't matter where your loyalties lie,... this investigation should be ongoing and independent because the reality is.... there is much that has yet to be acknowledged and discussed..

Silvermans 'pull it"comment.
