Seriously, this question is for the mass of people who consistently mis-use the word "Neocon".

Without looking in a reference, please define a "neocon" for me.

May 24 weekend I find out im pregnant. June 1st I go to a doctor and talk to her about my options. June 15 decision for the abortion. June 18th go to the abortion clinic. Everyone there was fantastic except for the woman who did my ultra sound. I will make this very clear. I NEVER HAD AN EMBRYO INSIDE OF ME. IT WAS A MOLAR PREGNANCY. The paperwork said i was about 7-8 weeks pregnant. She told me i was probably more like four because there was no heartbeat. http://www.obgyn.net/women/women.asp?page=/women/articles/molarpreg_dah (for those of you who don't know what a molar is). I went through with the abortion. I immediatley regret it, went through major depression. NO i didnt not have sex after this. following into july i continued to feel symptoms. Went to my doctor it was decided i had a molar. my dotctor was upset the abortion clinic didnt catch it, theyshould have.its hard for me to put everything on here because i have a limit. e-mail me if you're actually interested

I thought this was the land of free and equal? Are women conditioned to believe that only men can lead ??

From the time Americans started driving automobiles up untill George W. Bush took office, the price of gas was below 1.00/ gallon. After he took office, the price in, 6 years, has gone up to over 3.00/ gallon.

I think it is because he is an oil man. What's your opinion?

I'm all about small government and government staying out of our lives, but isn't it about time the US government stepped in and said enough is enough? High oil prices are crushing our economy, not to mention my wallet. The US gov't needs to seize control of all American-owned petroleum companies, do all the foreign oil purchasing itself, and set a ceiling on what it will pay per barrel.

Again, I don't like big, interfering governments, or any type of socialism, but 100 dollars per barrel is ridiculous. Need i remind anyone that 8 years ago, street prices for unleaded gasoline were ONE FIFTH of what they were today?

It seems a great number of you are okay with funding the continued dropping of bombs in Iraq to kill ter'rists, even if a few hundred thousand innocent people are harmed in the process. But, you vehemently oppose a children's healthcare bill that may benefit a few more people than it is intended to benefit . Why is that?

For every "One"combat soldier there are "8" people in the rear with the gear. (Rear Echelon Military Forces".) Isn't the ratio a little high?

My friends hub came home drunk, beat her up and then smashed his son , a teenager, in the head with a shovel, choked him and tried to hit him in the head with a weight from a weight bench. He got arrested on several assault charges and due to his criminal drinking history...on top of jail he is now in a rehab. He was the sole read winner as a self employed contractor. After jail he is now in a rehab. Mom stayed at home with kids. She is now getting divorced and working 2 jobs and cant even pay most of the bills. He is court ordered to go to rehab for up to 9 months and its a lock up one...
Figure this, she just got a court order to appear in court to pay for his rehab and spousal support !
How is a victim of a violent crime commited against her and her son liable to pay for anything ????????

I now wear mine in Sadness,More so with this futile war going on in Iraq ect. (there was no need for it.) I used to be Proud to wear it, more so when finally the Merchant navy men were reconised,(my late dad did his stint in the Korean war.) But now i see a poppy and it tinged with lot of sadness for our young lads who lives have been wasted in todays world.
How do you wear yours?

He worked for a big retail corporation that is rapidly losing and bought out K-mart and now they are really losing money. So here is the situation: My husband worked base + commission and averaged about $13.00 w/ full time benefits. He's been looking for a different job but as many of you know, the market is very tight. Anyway, yesterday 7 people (including my hubby) got fired for using a discount account that was created by their boss for a list of businesses, to keep this businesses coming back to S****. This business account was approved by corporate and has been on the books for 2 years. My hubby used it (ligitimately) under 10 times and had the paperwork in the computer to prove it. They said too bad, he (along with 6 other people and his boss) should not have used it even though the corporation approved it. He argued with them that he was doing what his BOSS told him to do (my hubby questioned this account when it was first created and he was told he HAD to use it for businesses)
