I neglected to mention I had gone to see him to pay honor to him for his service to our country. He's fifty six, a combat wounded Vietnam veteran from the 101st Airborne with a bronze star with valor and two purple hearts. He left a kidney in Vietnam, his oldest son is in the Army in Germany waiting to be deployed to Iraq. The question...Why would a person who obviously despises our government encourage his son to serve his country, especially at a time like this?

I was thinking of letting an attorney handle my parents will when the time comes so that I can avoid family squabbles. Plus, another reason for doing this is that I live a couple of hundred miles away. They have a trust. My parents do not want anyone else in the family to handle their will.

I'm looking for the confused "shut up you!?" episode after being called a liar ( not the confident "why don't you shut up? on the campaign trail. Also the clip with Nancy whispering answers to Ron at a press conference. It is amazing to me that these historical clips are difficult to find. Or is it?

Some people say it's good, others say its bad, depending on your point of view. Are you doing better than you were 10 years ago?

I'm doing a little better, but it doesn't seem all that great, especially with prices of things like gas and milk getting ever higher.

I have recently seen Michael Moores film Sicko, but this wasnt the begining of my questioning what our government isnt doing for us. One of our great presidents said "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country." well, now i think its high time the people start to do something for their country, by changing the government. Why are so many people so afraid to stand up? Is this what our forefathers fought so hard for? For us to just sit back and be afraid of what our governmnet might do to us if we rebell? No, we shouldnt be afraid of them. So how...how can we bring people together? how can we get THE PEOPLE reved up about these things? Are we just sick of fighting, or do we actually believe there is a reason why we are not offered free health care? or we are now not offering those people who volunteered durring 9/11 help with their health problems? How can we let our elderly be dropped off at homeless shelters because they have no insurance?

On June 5, 2006, the Muckraker Report contacted the FBI Headquarters, (202) 324-3000, to learn why Bin Laden’s Most Wanted poster did not indicate that Usama was also wanted in connection with 9/11. The Muckraker Report spoke with Rex Tomb, Chief of Investigative Publicity for the FBI. When asked why there is no mention of 9/11 on Bin Laden’s Most Wanted web page, Tomb said, “The reason why 9/11 is not mentioned on Usama Bin Laden’s Most Wanted page is because the FBI has no hard evidence connecting Bin Laden to 9/11.”

I have a friend that recieved a check and a letter in the mail stating that she has just won 120,000.00. and they was giving her 3,654.80 for her clearance fees. she said that they told her to call her agent to verify that she recieved the check and the letter. she said when she called they told her to deposit the check into her account so that she can recieve 113,400.00 and 6,600 will be deducted to pay the sponsor who covered her clearance fees. so is this a scam or real? can someone please respond and let me know so i can notify her not to do it!

The people saying that Bush (President and his administration) did no wrong and violated no law.

1. Would they be willing to come out in the open (make their identity and background open and known), so as to back up their statements and claims?

2. By telling people who you are gives more teeth to your words. Please state your qualifications, fully, in making such claims to back up your words.

3. If you are wrong, would you be big enough to back down and agree that the President SHOULD BE indicted?

4. HIM Yao Sui, as a foreign head of state and lead negotiator for the 1990-91 Iraq War, would be willing to accept the role as special prosecutor. Would you Bush supporters allow this to occur and if the anti-war people were successful at getting him appointed as "Special Prosecutor", would you seek to have this man assassinated, if he gets too close to the truth?

Not to say that just being a little corrupt is ok, but just looking at other countries that I've been in that are SO much more corrupt. For example, when I lived in Kenya, the police would block off the road with machine guns and expect a "toll" (read bribe) to go through. I know in this country there is some bribing for building permits and whatnot, but it doesn't seem as overt as it is in many other places in the world.

Do you think we'll eventually get to that point due to greed and moral depravity? Or will our own sense of justice and fairness prevail?

the shackles she was placed in could have been easily used to place her in the stress position which has her placed on her knees with her arms and legs beind her attached to the wall or bench. it has lead to the exact death she suffered. Her name was Carol Ann Gotbaum, maybe an angry ex military police officer decided it would stop her screaming.
