I just received a "violation notice" for posting the words, "Pot, meet kettle." As in, "The pot calling the kettle black?"

I mean, really. Somebody out there really is obsessed with me. I guess I should be flattered.

Thanks!

Right next to "you dont have to withdraw a pre-emptive strike even after you admitted we invaded a country that did not attack us on bad intelligence and was prooven to have not purchased yellow cake uranium from Niger"?

Or do Republicans use wedge issues when they cant run on their presiden'ts record because its that bad?


Dont give me your personal theory of what "marriage" is. Either you respect the rights of other adults or you dont, which is it?

I'd be pretty ticked off too if my neighbor was at war and it killed some of my people within my country and it wasn't stopping. Doesn't Turkey have the right to protect itself?

Last I heard, the USA was struggling in Iraq. Why not let Turkey in and help us wipe out some terrorists?

I am just thankfull that know one was ever hurt.
As excutor of his will I have the financial ability to take care of all of his fines, and I would like to try and get his license back. ( I can not have my Mother driving him back and forth to work everyday) , but I do not know where to begin. I am sure he has warrants and fines all over the place. How can I consilidate them and get a judge to hear a appeal. He has completed rehab, is a active mermber of AA, and is finally a productive member of society.He can not get to the next level having my Mom driving him everywere. Also if I ever suspected him of drinking and driving again I would call the police on him myself. Please Help

For it is the one common denominator thats everone needs to progress in any modern society. My referance is to the power that congress has under our constitution. Ofcourse 1913 Federal reserve & world banking system should never have been allowed to exist.

The whole of Yahoo Answers has stuff about liberals and Bush and Hillary C and the people on here sound like they hate each other. Is America going to split in two?

Are the anti war crowd or pro impeachement people ever going to go to the GOP?

Does America need more credible parties to keep the two big ones under pressure? There is absolutely no incentive for them to preform

I live in Hartsdale NY and I got a ticket in the Hartsdale village (right near the Hartsdale MetroNorth station). It was a $15 fine and I paid it right away. I waived my court date, pleaded guilty and just paid. However, I paid with CASH (a $10 + $5, perfect change).

Will they accept this or will it get sent back to me?

P.S. This is my first ticket and my parents would not be happy with me if they found out about this (I just started driving and they'd just call me irresponsible. In addition, it's a really stressful time for my family because I'm applying to college and such, so...it's really hectic and it'd be really nice if this little ticket thing didn't make things worse. Please help.

Is it just a random number that is assigned when a birth certificate is issued or what?
If not random, what determines the number? Geographic location, year of birth, what?
Links to info would be great too!

On a side note, do other countries have a simmilar system for tracking thier citezens like our SS numbers?

Should there be a "Statute of Limitations" on illegal immigrants? If someone came here illegally in 1985, has been working here the whole time, NOW we tell them that "Wait, you have to leave now"? Keep in mind that many other "crimes" committed in 1985 would not be prosecuted, just because too much time has passed.

Your Thoughts please,
And Thank You, As Always.

When I was 18 I needed a non-life threatning surgery. I had no insurance and no money. I went to the county hospital and got the proceedure. Problem solved.

So how is it that Liberals say the poor have no access to healthcare?

If the name "Kenneth Keating" is un-familiar to you , you'r not well -infomed on the Cuban Missle crises . Keating was the first person to reveal to the American public the presence of USSR missiles in Cuba.

When Keating first stated that there were missles in Cuba , the New York Times "reported' on Keating's warning with a one-paragraph "article" on page 18 .

During the period when Keating was pressing this issue , JFK did ---- NOTHING!!!

For 45 DAYS , the Air Force was prohibited from flying planes over Cuba to obtain intelligence. JFK was "assured" by his Russian "Contact" that there was no reason for JFK to be concerned , and JFK "Fell for It"

JFK simply could not accept the Russians would /could be so rash and reckless, as indeed they were.

Were it not for Keatings repeated revelations, which were 100% accurate, and which "Forced' JFK to respond ,the missles would have been "ready to launch" at US citys .

People being so disillusioned with the Presidential field that they simply WON'T VOTE?

I ask because I notice a lot of Democrats/Liberals who don't want her as President but also don't want a Republican as President.

Opinions?

For these reasons:

1. Are these hardend criminals who we must pay millions to get them off the streets?

2. Why to the euthanize chickens after a cockfighting ring gets busted? Aren't we trying to protect them?

3. Don't we have enough laws as it is?

do you think he would? I know it is hypothetical, but in case a large war were to break out_even if not planned and not wanted by Iran, Russia, nor the USA even_simply because things happen in the least expected of ways; would the President be asked by Congress to stay?

In case of the US being attacked, not by simple terrorists, but by another nation, Is the President obligated to stay in power? And whether he wants to stay or is obligated by circumstances, do you think the best that can happen is for him to stay?

Why is it assumed that those of us who do not support socialistic tendencies do not in any way support helping the less fortunate?

Most of us believe in community, not government charity.
