I come to this category occasionally and lately, there's been a lot of discussion about suspended accounts, cheating, etc.
Would someone please explain why so many are griping about these things? Do people with alot of points win things? What's the big deal? Since I don't come here often, I'm just getting bits and pieces.

Is this legitimite discrimination? If so what are my options?

as free health care
and any talk of not immediately deporting every illegal alien regardless of the inabiliy to do it or cost as amnesty
and any talk of bringing our troops home from iraq as un-American and not supporting the troops
and any talk of reforming the tax and social securtity systems as raising taxes
will anything ever get acomplished by those in Washington,DC?

My Dad fell off a ladder at work and has broke his heel. He cannot get an answer from his employer regarding pay, but they have said it is very unlikely he will get anything. He says there is nothing in his contract, but surely he is entitled to something?

If our national debt increases faster than our annual GDP, is this not bound to happen?

If our GDP is around 10 trillion, and the debt is around 10 trillion, what happens when we owe more money that we generate?

Why or Why not?

I believe in freedom of speech. However, I find humor in the fact that protesters would try to block supplies RETURNING from Iraq in order to prevent the war.

Not to mention I get a warm fuzzy knowing they resisted arrest and got pepper sprayed in the face.

Criminalisation of politics is on the severely high. Several Ministers in the Government as ,for example ,in Bihar,either booked for criminal offense including murder or some of them even convicted! Black money, muscle power, threat and intimidation by contestants in election even letting loose rowdy elements with underground goons has made every honest and patriotic people shy away from politics and public life.Every development work ridden with corruption is shabbily done and suffering a short life and in the process huge money is going in the drain. It appears the the whole future of India is on the shaky ground!Agree?

Cindy can't get Larry King to return her phone calls and she is now a "B player" trying to exploit her betrayal of her son's military service. Valerie Plame is now a multi-millionaire and the darling of the liberal media.

Does Cindy hate Valerie now that a new "schill" for socialism has emerged?

and it was completely her fault. she admitted it to the police and everything. now she had an insurance policy that was actually canceled but i didn't find out til later. she then gave me a policy and said it was her new insurance but it turned out she got that insurance 11 days after the accident. now i had to go to the hospital after the accident because i was 32 weeks pregnant so i needed to make sure my baby was ok. and the ems bill just came. i also have the tow truck fees that i paid and then it'll be 200 dollars to fix my car (i know a few mechanics) so all in all it'll be about 1700 that i'm asking for from the other party. i'm not going to try to sue them for all they're worth or anything like that. i should tho because all they've done is give me the run around over and over AND i ended up having my baby early and the doctors suspect the wreck was why. so if i take her to small claims court i would win right?

Valerie Plame just got a book deal for $2.5 milion, she & her husband has just signed an agreement to launch a Hollywood movie & she is now booking speaking engagements for huge fees. She's doing the talk and news show circuits, claiming she is a victim.

How can Plame, who was an admin CIA worker, boo-hoo and try to create sympathy as if she was injured? Heck, being "outed" was the very best thing that ever happened to her and her liberal activist husband.

Now Plame is the darling of liberal journalists and is set to be a muti-millionaire, in exchange for being used as schill for advancing socialism.

Is Valerie Plame an opportunist?

Nobody really seems to be bothered if what they are told is true. why cant people be bothered to actually find out for themselves. on the day of the oklahoma city bombing a policeman dissapeared later found dead after discovering explosives INSIDE the building placed the detonators had failed. also a security officer had told people because of suspicious activity not to bring children into the building the toll of murdered children might have been higher. he was suspicious of strangers inside the building in the days before. he survived the attack and was seen walking around by colleagues he aided a few people. later they were told he had died in the explosion and was found dead at his desk. timothy mcveigh was a good soldier proud of his service and his country why would he turn on it. why swallow what your told, should you swallow the truth and spit lies out. should'nt you find out for yourself? whatreallyhappened.com bottom of page left hand side

Why are the celebrity Global Warming nuts telling us common people that WE need to conserve? I am sure my "carbom footprint" is about 1/1,000,000th of those who were on Bravo TV this weekend telling me that I need to conserve, do they realize how much energy and waste is created from making movies and such?

I am 39w6d pregnant. My due date is tomorrow; however, my husband has been called for jury duty starting tomorrow! What are the chances he can get out of it? If he can't, will I be allowed to accompany him to the "trials" in case I go into labor (since cell phones won't be allowed how else would I reach him?) I know he has talked to one lady already and she couldn't give him any kind of answer as to what to do. Anyone have any thoughts?
