What would a WWIII in the Middle East look like? How many countries would be involved? What countries would be involved? Will it involve nuclear weapons? Will it be total war? Will America prevail again?

Put yourself in the shoes of an illegal immigrant. You have already committed a very serious crime by coming into the country illegally, so compared to the penalties for that, the penalties for driving without a license are relatively minor. Also, you have no assets in the US to speak of, so driving without insurance isn't an issue, since no one could sue you anyway. So what will stop you from driving?

I know that there are issues of principle involved with this, but I am just trying to think practically. If they buy insurance, then everyone else won't have to pay higher uninsured driver's premiums.

PS Please just answer my question, regardless of whether you think it's right or not. I am not interested in hearing whether you think they should or shouldn't be given licenses.

Stephen Colbert paid the filing fee to run for president in South Carolina before the deadline.

"However, after about 40 minutes of discussion by top party officials, the executive council voted 13-3 to keep the host of "The Colbert Report" off the ballot."

What kind of a Democracy do we have when a few select people get to decide who can and who can't run for president?

And before Republicans get all high and mighty about this offense by the Democratic Party, Colbert couldn't even run as a Republican because they had a required $35,000 filing fee. Apparently you have to be wealthy to run as a Republican, which is fitting, I suppose.

This is a question I am needing help on in my law class, I need three opinion of people, if anyone can help me out that would be wonderful. Thank you in advance.
Bryan and Kelly have been married for five years. Both work, and each earns about $30,00o per year. They have problems paying their bills and often fight over money. One day, Kelly goes shopping and charges groceries, clothes for the children, and a VCR costing over $500.00. Bryan gets angry and tells Kelly that he is not paying for anything.

Questions
Is Bryan responsible for the debts of his wife?

Suppose Bryan was out of work and charged the previously mentioned items without telling his wife. Would she have to pay?

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: "husbands should be required to support their wives, but wives should not have to support their husbands"? Explain why you feel this way?

I asked a question before & chose the answer that was more mature.. (even though the other answers were what I said when I got off the phone pissedoff & cussing after talking to them...) but DOESNT HAVING SOMEONE IN A FOREIGN LAND POSE A THREAT TO US AS AMERICANS WHEN THEY HAVE ACCESS TO OUR ACCOUNTS? Regardless if its a credit card compnay or not, if they have my name & address then they can surely get my vital info..
Am I right or wrong to think this?

Everyone knows about "Motor-Voter" so it's no surprise that the Dems want illegals to have drivers licenses. The next step is to get them to sign up to vote democrat! All they need do is show their drivers license and they get to vote! I think the Hillster screwed up on this one! What say you?

serious candidates on the ballot. What a mistake. The politicians are making a mockery of their offices, why not have someone like Colbert make a mockery of the whole system? He's going to blast them on his show. Does this prove anyone cannot run for office?

Our situation is this, my fiance and I have lived in our new rental property for almost 2 months, and we are planning to move out because we have both been having allergy problems due to the mold that is growing outside of the house, we are unsure if there is mold inside the house itself, but we have to keep the windows closed and the air on because we cannot breathe when we our outside, especially when it rains, and we our wondering if we can break our lease, becasue the landlord is planning on taking us to court due the contract agreement we had originally signed. We are also having problems with the water system, and have had pest problems from before we actually moved into the rental property. These are all problems that were supposed to have been fixed BEFORE we moved into the rental property. Can You Help Us.............

Brigadier General Wounded in Iraq
Last Edited: Monday, 29 Oct 2007, 11:21 PM EDT

Pentagon officials confirmed to FOX News that Brigadier Gen. Jeffrey J. Dorko, commander of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Gulf Region Division in Baghdad, was one of two soldiers wounded Monday by an improvised explosive device (IED) in northern Baghdad.

The other soldier was treated and released.

Dorko was traveling Monday morning with a private security team belonging to Erinys International when the attack occurred in northern Baghdad.

He is thought to be the highest-ranking U.S. military officer injured in the war. Dorko suffered shrapnel wounds and was taken to Landstuhl Army Hospital in Germany for treatment, his father, Ray Dorko told The Sandusky Register, a MyFoxToledo.com media affiliate.
===============================
Say what you want about Blackwater, Erinys Intl. is a British owned firm, thus they were technically mercenary soldiers, by definition.
