Politics & Government - 5 November 2007

My husband had to appear in Small Claims Court for a credit card debt in RI, the lawyer for the collection agency was unprepared and received a contiuance until February 11th, 2008. We are moving to FL in the beginning of February, what do we do? I know not showing up is a bad error but if we live 12 states away it does not make sense to fly up here over a $1000 "debt". Thanks for the assistance!!

Are Bill and Hillary trying to help China to destroy the US?

Let's take a look at FACTS:

Bill got a ton of "campaign" money from Chinese sources.
Bill let the Chinese sleep in the Lincoln Room.
Bill gave Permanent MFN to China -- something few Dems supported (Why would Bill betray his own party?)
Bill was in charge when China "stole" our very best missile guidance system. (Or did he give it to them?)

Hillary was on Walmart's board of directors.
Walmart has teamed up in a way that has destroyed millions of American jobs.
China tried to buy a US oil company (Unocal). The Republican Congress put a stop to that!

I'm not saying that Bush is against China. But, he's not running for president. My concern is that Hillary and Bill would gladly sell America to China for enough money in their own pockets.

Are Bill and Hillary helping China to destroy the US?

when it's been proven torture does not get accurate information?

Is it because Bush is happy with any info, even if it's inaccurate?

My husband and I just moved from Missouri to Kentucky. He is a full time student at UK. I'm working full time. My mom told me that after living in Missouri for a year, you have to change your driver's license to Missouri unless you are a full time student. Does the same work in Kentucky? Even if my husband is a student, but I'm not? Serious answers only please!

I just found out that an ex boyfriend of mine, who put me through hell and stole, lied, etc., got out of prison in GA in June of this year. He'd been in since 2004, when I participated in a sting operation with the US Marshalls to put him there (I wasn't kidding when I said he was a bad dude). His last words to me were that he was going to 'get' me - now he's out, and I am scared. He was in the pen in GA, and I live in OK, so there's that - he doesn't know my address or place of work, and I have changed my car since he knew me. The only information he has is my dad's address - I am afraid he would go there.

What can I do to protect myself?

I just need ideas for a journal entry and was wondering what you all thought.

Also - if you have something to source it with, that would be great!

Thanks

In Vietnam, far more "insurgents" were active in fighting Americans, then later the South Vietnamese, then is witnessed today in Iraq.

Also, in Japan, at the end of WWII it is accepted by historians and Japanese leaders of the day, that every Japanese man, woman, and child, would have fought an American invasion to the last Japanese person left standing (Shinto was the religion which looked upon Japan as the center of the universe and the emporer as a man of God's presence on earth).

There are at least 2 million Muslims in the UK, if "only" 2% are terrorists and would support suicide bombings etc we have 40,000 dangerous terrorists in the UK.

2% of 2 million = 40,000.

My son was coming home with a friend (my son was the passenger, the friend, the driver.) The car was pulled over, and the friend was arrested for DUI. Meanwhile, the cops found a marijuana pipe in the back seat. Both boys denied it was theirs, and the cops charged both of them. Meanwhile, the driver has since pleaded guilty to the possession charge, but my son has also been charged and we have to go to court for it. Since the other boy has admitted it's his, will the charges against my son likely be dropped?

This has got to stop . And this just might be one issue that we all can agree on .
Yesterday I learned that one of the best in the 'Politics' section has been suspended . Her name ? - Suthrnlyts . I've been around for more than a year and a half and have never seen anything remotely resembling a violation from her .

Doesn't this garbage make you sick ?

Kate Michelman, advisor to the Edwards campaign, says the sole woman Democrat hopeful raises 'white flag' when pressed.

November 4, 2007
WASHINGTON -- A prominent feminist, allied with the presidential campaign of former Sen. John Edwards, accused Democratic front-runner Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton on Saturday of "disingenuously playing the victim card" by infusing her campaign with messages about gender.

One example of many:

Recently their Bill O' Reilly (one of the most famous pundits in America) described ongoing fierce fighting in Afghanistan as a 'myth' spread by anti-Americans.

I think the families of our (British) servicemen fighting and dying in Helmand Province would consider this a gross insult.

Heck I don't know if I even have the right "Yahoo" catagory- but anyway maybe someone could direct me in the right direction. Our Godson came out to visit early spring and now his deadbeat parents dont want him back (and he doesn't want to go back-which I dont blame him).
His dad is a convicted sexual predator and his mother is pretty much worthless (they are divorced). His dad pays child support to his mother (which we never see).
Well now that he doesn't want to go back, I want the support the to feed this teenager that eats like a horse. Problem is we live in California and his "parents" live in another state.

Anybody know if its within our rights to go after the child support? We even put him in school out here!
