Is this a valid position or an assumption based on arrogance?

Unfortunately we got pulled over and he got a dui in my car. The police arranged a ride for me, and left my car at a parking lot. They put him in jail and got released after 8 hours now he has to go to court on Dec.3rd. My question is what will his punishments be? For 1st time offense and he has a clean record. He does not own a car he is only 24. He works for the city (it is a driving job he has his own truck) on the weekends. He has been with the city for a year now. He has a full time job elsewhere, and he is a server at a rest on sat and sun nights. Do you think the judge will be lenient with him because it was his 1st mistake? I told him I will help pay half of his monthly court fees..but what does a 1st time offense go through? What penalties should he expect? And will he loose his job for the city? Can't he get a restricted license and still work for the city? Please help he is freaking out and I want to help him by being there for him. But I want to know what to expect.

Is anyone as fed up with politicians (I name John McCain first and foremost) labeling anti-war supporters "anti-American" and/or "un-patriotic" as I am?

So I'm anti-American if I go with my gut feeling that this war is wrong? That we're not really fighting for freedom or trying to spread democracy? That I don't believe all of the baloney that comes out of DC?

Am anti-American if I go and read/study about the country that I live in and find that it too has sponsored terrorism...?

I know #1 is premetitaed, and #2 is none premetitated, but murder is murder! If convicted, they should get life or the needle regardless. I was watching law and order. 3 kids were shot, one died, two others didnt. But it was a hate related crime turned out cause they were jewish and blk. The "perp" got 25 to life. What do you think he should get if he pled guilty?

This bigot guy at work said to my friend, who was born in Vietnam in 1975, that he's "pretty much Chinese" because when the Chinese invaded Vietnam they raped all their women and took their stuff and so everyone in Vietnam is partially Chinese.

Did I miss this part in History class? LOL

If anyone has any information, I am interested in finding out more about local presidential primaries. Who does the voting? Can just anyone be a part of the vote? I am trying to research it online and am not coming up with many clear answers. Thanks!

We still haven't had our first caucus or primary yet most of what I see centers around a Giuliani/Clinton general election.

It seems to me that both Edwards and Obama could threaten Clinton and that Romney and Thompson are still possibilities. And frankly I wouldn't rule out any other candidate at this stage.

Do we pick nominees based on polls now? Or do we still count the votes in the primaries?

I just think it's way too early to anoint anyone as a nominee.

China sells us things that are made with lead and other crap that is bad for our kids and us parents ! Why should we sit back let them do this to us when they know good and well what they are doing ? It's wrong to let them keep doing this ! Besides the companys selling there crap are getting rich and the ones that don't are going out of business. Why continue to let them make all the money ? Anyways its just a thought ! To all of you who read this have a nice day and if this upsets anyone, sorry !

And what if Hillary Clinton becomes president? Wouldn't be unpatriotic to bash her as well. I often hear Republicans say that we should stick by our president and our country regardless of what's occurring, yet I witness many Republicans bashing Clinton both Bill and Hillary. I am not bashing but this is kind of hypocritical don't you agree?!
Note: This question doesn't apply to all Republicans just the ones who say it's unpatriotic to bash the president.

If you are prior service and going active army, do you still get to choose where you want to go and if you want to change your MOS can you do that and pick what you want?

Please serious responses only, thanks!

You're right, the US does maintain its standard of living by monopolizing most of the world's resources, and there is great resentment over that, but it goes much deeper.

Like many on the religious right in the US, militant Muslims have great anxiety over the rapidly increasing secularizing of the world. They see traditional values being abandoned, women forgetting their place, young people having sex outside of marriage, gays being tolerated and even embraced, abortion becoming acceptable, and the love of money taking the place of the love of God. And when they look for the causes of these changes, the most powerful symbols they see are American music, American movies, American television, American attitudes. When they call America "The Great Satan," it's not just rhetoric. Like American fundamentalists, they feel that Satan must be at large in American culture for these things to be happening.

Add to this the forceful removal of Palestinians from their homes by an Israeli governme
