There are many small airports across the country. These airports have perhaps ten or twenty airplanes at any one time. The control towers are usually staffed. Why should tax payers maintain the sport of so few?

DID YOU KNOW? As you walk up the steps to the building which houses the U.S Supreme Court you can see near the top of the building a row of the world's law givers and each one is facing one in the middle who is facing forward with a full frontal view .. it is Moses and he is holding the Ten Commandments!
DID YOU KNOW?
As you enter the Supreme Court courtroom, the two huge oak doors have the Ten Commandments engraved on each lower portion of each door.
DID YOU KNOW?
As you sit inside the courtroom, you can see the wall,
right above where the Supreme Court judges sit,
a display of the Ten Commandments!
DID YOU KNOW?
There are Bible verses etched in stone all over the Federal Buildings and Monuments in Washington , D.C.
DID YOU KNOW?
James Madison, the fourth president, known as 'The Father of Our Constitution' made the following statement:
'We have staked the whole of all our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self-government, upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.'
DID YOU KNOW?
Patrick Henry, that patriot and Founding Father of our country said:
'It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists but by Christians, not on religions but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ'.
DID YOU KNOW?
Every session of Congress begins with a prayer by a paid preacher, whose salary has been paid by the taxpayer since 1777.
DID YOU KNOW?
Fifty-two of the 55 founders of the Constitution were members of the established orthodox churches in the colonies.
DID YOU KNOW?
Thomas Jefferson worried that the Courts would overstep their authority and instead of interpreting the law would begin making law . an oligarchy: the rule of few over many.
DID YOU KNOW?
The very first Supreme Court Justice, John Jay, said:
'Americans should select and prefer Christians as their rulers.'

How, then, have we gotten to the point that everything we have done for 220 years in this country is now suddenly wrong and unconstitutional?
It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God. Therefore, it is very hard to understand why there is such a mess about having the Ten Commandments on display or 'In God We Trust' on our money and having God in the Pledge of Allegiance. Why don't we just tell the other 14% to Sit Down and SHUT UP!!!

If an apartment manger is told in writing that someone has more than one person living there (thus violating not only their lease but committing federal, fraud and they do nothing to investigate, are they libel for anything..could they be sued or anything..how much are they required to do if anything.

The situation is the lady signed federal forms swearing it was true under penalties of law that she was the only resident and swore to the amount of her income providing documents and release forms of all assets, but she did not list the incomes of 1-3 men also living there because she lied and did not put them on the lease. This is a federal crime if anyone were aware of it. If management has reason to suspect they lied on these forms, are they required to do any type of investigation or covert work to find out if it is true? It may require sending someone there several times to hear the males having their loud fights or talking or happening to see the men through the window in the

I'm not in anyone's camp yet, but I'm trying to decide how to spend both my money and my time in the coming election. My ideals seem out of the mainstream, and my candidate-of-choice is likely to be someone other than a front-runner.

What do you do when the candidate you chose seems to be "unelectable." Do you support him or her and fight the good fight? Do you withdraw from the field and send your contributions to the party and hope for the best? Do you throw your support to the front runner in the "anyone but the other guy" politics?

I don't want "bash the con or lib candidate" answers. The question is about how you personally handle the quandary. If you feel no quandary, then answer a different question, please.

Just to get elected. She tosses something out there (5K for newborns) just to see what will stick. If it doesn't, back to the chalk board. Her only goal is to gain power. Change? Hardly.



Oh, and suck the souls out of all those who challenge her.

I had a client where I acted as the middle man to deliver appliances to their location. By some fluke, the vendor delivered two televisions by mistake and when I tried to return the spare, they wrote it off saying it would cost them more in man hours and shipping to worry about it. This was almost a year ago. The project in question has since been completed and they have all of the equipment they requested and do not have any knowledge of the television. So basically their is a television with no owner. So as you can all predict my next question, is it wrong to take the television for myself. Thanks.

OK, don't even try to find anything racist here. I am asking this question because to me, the problem of overpopulation in Africa and Asia is a very critical one and should be dealt with immediately. However, I do wish to blame poor people who are irresponsibly engaging in sex knowing that it may result in pregrancy. I believe, that the people are also driven by their selfish "I want to have children" while not having any means to raise these children. And it simply breaks my heart to hear news about children's suffering and deaths just because their parents wanted to have sex.

that require substantive answers. Her performance the other night in the debates was awful and it appears she is in favor of and behind the push here in New York State to grant licenses to illegal aliens, using Gov. Spitzer as her puppet.
But because of her flailing and faltering and shrillness in her lack of adequate responses in the debates and her obvious inability to keep on track, do you think this is just an isolated John Kerry moment and do you think people got a good glimpse of what she is really all about?

Retired Army general says conflicts in Middle East could keep U.S. there for 50 years

PITTSBURGH (AP) -- It might take as long as half a century before U.S. troops can leave the volatile Middle East, according to retired Army Gen. John Abizaid.
"Over time, we will have to shift the burden of the military fight from our forces directly to regional forces, and we will have to play an indirect role, but we shouldn't assume for even a minute that in the next 25 to 50 years the American military might be able to come home, relax and take it easy, because the strategic situation in the region doesn't seem to show that as being possible," Abizaid said Wednesday at Carnegie Mellon University.
Abizaid, the former commander of U.S. forces in the Middle East, stepped down in March as the longest-serving commander of U.S. Central Command. He retired from the Army in May and now is at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University.

I have a BA in Marketing from Michigan State University and right now I like 4 people - Thompson, Hunter, Biden, and Dodd.

Out of those 4 I like different things that each of them have to offer but the commonality is I trust their judgement.
