My ex's lawyer says it is the responsibility of my lawyer to schedule depositions with my expert witnesses. Is this true?

I have nothing against people on benifits but it annoys me how people work and have 2 pay taxes so money can go to other families when the parents are very capable to work. In some circumstances fare enough but otherwise get off your **** lol.
My mum worked out with what she earns and after paying it all off she is actually better on benifits.
What do you feel about this?.... am i wrong?

Just wondering because if cons were to acknowledge gravity, it would put to question many of their beliefs about the world.

"After unceremoniously removing all of its Christmas trees in the middle of the night last year, the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport this season will dispense with any religious symbols and just celebrate "winter."

Hmm, so why is it that the so called "secular progressives" (They're really secular oppresives) can attack Christmas, but not attack the Muslim foot baths?

This just goes to show you that there is a war on Christianity. (Funded and supported by the liberals such as the Aclu F.Y.I.)

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

I have been hearing alot about how black women are in this massive state of confusion due to whether they should vote for a black man or a white woman in the primaries. Though I believe that sex or race shouldn't matter, it does. If you have to vote based solely on race or sex, which would you choose?

The MAJORITY of Americans, are still pro-choice. Don't you realize that if you try to make abortion a wedge issue, your going to lose the presidential election badly ?

Even Bush was smart enough to never talk about abortion until AFTER he was elected....

9 ‘These you may eat of all that are in the water: whatever in the water has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers—that you may eat. 10 But all in the seas or in the rivers that do not have fins and scales, all that move in the water or any living thing which is in the water, they are an abomination to you. 11 They shall be an abomination to you; you shall not eat their flesh, but you shall regard their carcasses as an abomination. 12 Whatever in the water does not have fins or scales—that shall be an abomination to you.

Well there be a Constitutional Amendment to ban the sale of Shirmp and Lobster and Clam Chowder, for it is abomination to the lord their god?

can't they got their IP addresses when they order things on-line, and can't they go to where they ship their purchases?
Especially IP addresses. And shipping, too, if they ship to P.O. boxes, wouldn't there be people who saw them opening these boxes, and IDs shown to open them, and forms filled? It should be a child's game.

Is it traumatic for the editors to have to print the article?

In other words, I might disagree with my President on the war and how its going, but I keep my mouth shut and don't go on TV and start bashing the Ottoman empire for something that happened 100 years ago,

I for one just am joe q citizen and will probably go on yahoo answers and say my little stupid opinions and probably fight with pnac and ret roch cop and them every day, but no one from other countries is going to see it or care what i have to say,

now, when elected officials start doing stupid things like this, it hurts our foreign policy and our national interest and puts us troops in harms way

agree or disagree, politics stops at the waters edge (as it applies to elected officials)

I don't expect they can be as specific as Republicans, but let's try.

-They don't like SS reform and are against private accounts. They killed it last year, but they expect to keep the vigil against an ownership society until the system runs out of money.
-They dislike the President’s policy in Iraq, but they can’t agree what to do differently.
-They like Kyoto. They would not pass the treaty, but they would talk about it more, ironically creating even more hot air.
-They like nationalized health care in general, but not any of the details.
-They think 4.7% unemployment is too high, but they have no plan to do anything about it, a wise strategy since unemployment below even 5% is hard to sustain.
-They oppose Arabs investing in American infrastructure, but oppose profiling in any other way.
-They all hate President Bush. Howard Dean hates all Republicans.

Any Dems want to be more specific or make corrections? What is it that most Dems favor of that most Republicans are against? In other words, why should anyone follow the Democratic leadership for any reason other than a vague sense of curiosity about where such people might wander?

if USA is so great like most of you say, why countries like france, germany, spain, UK,... don't ask to become part of USA and so we can create a mega country and run the world and say to everybody how big and how good we are...

My girlfriend wants to join the Army and i know its selfish but i dont want her too!

She says she wants a career and its something she wanted to do for years, i'm worried about her safety.

I'm also worried she will meet someone else with all those blokes around her.

Should i try to change her mind? Should i leave her as it could be too hard and honestly i dont think distance relationships work? Or should i try my best to make it work? i do love her....
