Politics & Government - 29 October 2007

Go by the recruiting office in the morning and the sign says closed. In evening it says open. Stopped by last night to see what was up. Found the guy had been reading the sign from the inside instead of what everyone else could see from the outside. Maybe I'll look into the navy instead....

Would the issue of Woman for pres be different if Hilary wasn't so good at campaigning?

I understand the issue of Hilary but would we as a nation be more lenient toward a woman who didn't have initial contact with the whitehouse or someone who didn't come across as a threat to the way of life we have tried so hard to keep from getting shaken up?

Does anyone wish that they can change the world?

I wish that poverty, famine, greed, and war were all elimated and we all lived in a peaceful world where everyone was treated equally. I'm sick of this world. It is unfair to so many people. People all across the world are starving and in dire need of help, while too many people in the Western world have too much money. If we pay everyone the same throughout the world, that would be ideal. Unfortuantely that won't happen and doesn,t it disgust you that certain people have too much money and use it only for their personal merit? Why are we, as humans, so greedy? Doesn't anyone wish they could chance this corrupt world?

Can Hillary Clinton ruin Peter Paul easier than Billy Dale (travelgate)as she doesnt have to create a crime?

Travelgate pitted the Clintons against Billy Dale, whose sole "crime" was whistleblowing Hillary installing the arkansas "mafia" in the office. After ruining his life, career and fortunes, as the Clintons publicly sided with his defense against manufactured cia and irs charges, they now have Peter Paul and the Youtube video. Though his crime is unrelated to the thrashing the Clintons gave him financially, Hillarys arguement is it should disqualify him "anyway".
quote

The film also includes a tape recording recently obtained by Paul of Sen. Clinton thanking him in advance for staging the event, which he says is proof that she illegally coordinated the fundraiser with him.
in anticpation of the liberal whine, regardless if its new evidence, it is infact evidence.
Stan Lee, creator of many of Marvel Comic heroes denies the statements Hillary made regarding her finanacial involvement with him and this event

Can someone please explain the Blackwater immunity to me?

I understand that Blackwater is a security company.

I understand that Blackwater security personnel were involved in something that resulted in the death of Iraqi civilians.

I understand that the U.S. is investigating.

I understand that the Iraqi's claim that Blackwater fired without provocation and have yet to find witnesses to say otherwise.

What I want to know is why the U.S. government gave the Blackwater employees involved in the episode immunity. I've read a little about it, but couldn't make much sense of why these individuals were given immunity when they were under investigation for the wholesale slaughter of civilians.

Can someone please explain it to me?

Has anyone else heard of the National Prize Reporting Center?

I have recieved a seemingly legit letter from them stating that I have won some money.

I fear that they are trying to scam me, but they haven't asked me for any personal information.

I've entered a few sweepstakes, but I don't know what to do.

My father is going to take the letter to his lawyer and see if it is real or a scam.

I would really love to answer back to them and recieve my 'winnings', but with all of the scamming here lately, I don't know who to trust and who not to.

I've even looked onto some scam searcher sites, but the name was not there.

So... Legit or scam???

Thanx a lot! :)

Why do you think Barack Obama and Mike Huckabee are picking up points in polls lately?

FYI: I don't support either of these two.

I reject Barack after reading his book, and reject Huckabee because he is a creationist.

This question is not meant as an endorsement but rather asking why they are picking up points in recent polls?
