Politics & Government - 19 October 2007

I just purchased a model 360 scandium .357 for concealed carry and wondered what other owners thought of this awesome little gun. i'm going to shoot target with .38 +p and run .357 mags with concealed carry. i've actually shot derringers with .357 so it's not that crazy to run that round in the 360. also concerning frame strength and reliability -s&w has guaranteed me that this gun will stand up to .357 mag rounds as long as you can take it and then some. also i put a hogue monogrip installed before i even took it home. trigger pull feels great even out of the box.. any ideas on holsters -i like the synthetic variety -shoulder carry and possibly other carry. any input well appreciated-thanx.

It is a proven failure and has been tried in hundreds of countries for hundreds of years.
What are the results? No sustained success whatsoever.

Why is the insistence on instituting a proven failure in America called "progressive"?

Do liberals not know the meaning of "digressive"?

If personx steals a prescription pad from a doctors office as a past employee and has an intent to forge a prescription, fill it and then sell the controlled substance, what would be the legal charge if there is one? The stealing of the pad is actually the only thing (that I know of) that occurred. But there was intent as personx told another person what they were going to do and that person went to the medical practice and reported it. What should the medical practice do in this case?

Bush's lies and failed policies have created more animosity and hatred than Al-Q could have ever ignited on their own. Will someone please tell Bush to put the stick down and come home?

I don't lose sleep pondering if someone likes me, America, or not. This does not mean that I will go out of my way to make people hate me just because "I can". Does this make sense?

I have a friend who's a psychologist. He says his clients/patients have been experiencing the same mysterious dream although none of them have ever met. According to him, psychologists across the nation have been reporting the same baffling phenomenon. There's no commonality between the clients/patients who report this dream other than they all have a "W" bumper sticker on their car.

The subject of their dream is the bald eagle from the opening of the TV show, the Colbert Report. It's the eagle that dives across the screen during the opening credits and makes that screeching sound. The difference is that the eagle is now huge, with a 50+ foot wingspan.

but I am still curious given a number of questions I asked yesterday in this forum. Most answers were most enlightening and thoise answering seemed quite knowledgeable However.
If a paralegal offers (gives) information to people she is, say, preparing bankruptcies for (such as info from legitimate sites right here on line) and they read the material BEFORE coming back to her, and they make up their OWN minds when they come back to her that they want a Chapter7 or 13, and she gives them the proper forms to fill out, is
that activity considered
the unauthorized practice of law?

and if one of thm asked her to explain what, for example, an "exemption" is, and she 'explains' what it is but does not offer any advice as to where to insert such exemptions, is that considered the unauthorized practice of law?

Dems who think we can tax & spend our way to prosperity and a stronger currency?

Cons who think we need to abolish the Bill of Rights to achieve freedom?

Dems who think Hillary's $110 Billion a year corporate welfare for insurance companies is really going to help the poor & working class?

Cons who think Hillary's plan is socialism, yet Bush's $100 Billion a year corporate welfare for drug companies is compassionate conservatism?

The Facts:
The Social Security Administration predicts the program will be able to fully pay all promised benefits through 2042, when most baby boomers will be dead--even using pessimistic assumptions about future economic growth. Annual productivity growth is forecast by SSA at only 1.6 percent through 2078; in the years 1913-1990 (including the Great Depression), it grew by about 2.3 percent, a rate that would more than wipe out any future shortfall (2004 Social Security Trustees' Report; The World Economy, OECD, 2001).

But for most of the media, no such context is allowed. The sole economic expert who appeared on ABC was David John of the right-wing Heritage Foundation, who likened the situation to a "horror movie." The Washington Post's Dana Milbank chided a Social Security commissioner for "whistling past the graveyard of entitlement insolvency" because he had the temerity to say, "There's no reason to have any immediate panic."

Earlier today, I answered this persons question. I did not find it racist, I thought the questioner was asking a legitimate question. However, several people appeared to take offense at the question.

Does it make you racist to wonder and ask why certain folks in the black community do what they do?

I'v been listeing to Hillary Clinton and other Democrats on this issue and it sound like that they want us to pay for every childs health care. I allready pay a good amount of my pay check to taxes and Bush did help that out by cutting taxes. But it sounds like we are going to have a Demicratic President and all they want to do is raise taxes for the middle and upper class. I make well over 60,000 a year as a single women and I am barely surving. ( I live in Ca) I can't pay any more taxes specially for people that don't want to work is hard as me.

then decide they arnt busy enough so they have you come in randomly each day 10am 9am ect...and leave early at any time any day; which in tern leaves you out of the original 40 hours a week that you were hired for---is that exceptable, or illegal to keep you from getting the full 40 hours you originally agreed on?
AND
Since the persons that are on call will get paid over time -they decide to have you work the "extra" on call hours without your overtime pay because they took your full hours away (that once again you agreed on when you started) Is that exceptable or illegal?

That a drunk driver who kills a woman and her unborn baby gets 2 murder charges? Even if the woman was on her way to have an abortion!?!?!? Why is it legal for her? But not the drunk? Dont get me wrong i am TOTALLY against drunk driving and believe their punishments should be stiffer. But why can a woman abort a kid and its not murder, but a criminal that kills her and the baby dies gets 2 murder charges?!?!!?

I live in Canada and am a smoker. I do realize the rights of the non-smoker, but believe that some legislation being enforced is crazy. If smoking is so bad that we need to implement all the laws, then why not ban it? Are you a smoker or non-smoker? What are your views on the laws Canadian, US, or worldwide reply. I am interested in what it is like in other countries and viewpoints of Canadians too. Smokers or non-smokers, how do you feel about the way things are? Do you feel that you should be able to smoke in your vehicle or home. They want us outside, but when our smoke goes into the window of someone's house then where will the lines be drawn in new legislation. Why are cigarettes just not banned? Do you think the greedy governments still want the revenue, so still sell them? Just curious
