Personally I think this administration and more then a few republican congress-people in the last six years, have shown a total disdain for moral and ethical behavior in their own lives. How can some people keep believing the GOP is some kind of moral beacon? For those on the religious right, I would take a look at what's happening in your churches, they're no saints either. The point, shouldn't morals be something we practice individually and not dictated to us as a herd?

I think this is better than the Pledge of Allegiance, much more practical, despite being communist. Or is it too "controlling" for freedom lovers?

1. Love the country; do it no harm
2. Serve the people; never betray them
3. Follow science; discard superstition
4. Be diligent; not indolent
5. Be united, help each other; make no gains at other's expense
6. Be honest and trustworthy; do not sacrifice ethics for profit
7. Be disciplined and law-abiding; not chaotic and lawless
8. Live plainly, work hard; do not wallow in luxuries and pleasures.

Funny but I dont remember Henry Waxman complaining about Blackwater when they successfully protected HIM while he was in Iraq.

Did I miss something?

Why do certain liberal Christian haters in here ask for links to stories they refuse to believe, then when links are provided they chicken out and refuse to comment or at least stand corrected? Hmmm, I wonder what P and D stands for (my guess is Pretty and Dumb).

I work at a major theme park. We drop our cash deposits nightly and they are picked up weekly. My boss is telling me one of mine did not make it to the bank, a total of $479. This happens to be one that I failed to log.

Not worried about being fired, I deserve it for not logging the deposit. There is nothing to prove that I dropped it, but I did. However I am worried that they may try to arrest me or charge me with this as a felony (it is over $300).

Can they arrest me? If I quit can they still charge me with this as a felony?

I was once in an old hotel room in Los Angeles, and witnessed an altercation on the sidewalk below. It escalated as more policemen arrived. The one was being beat by the circle of officers, and I couldn't countenance it any longer, so I yelled at them to stop.

One cop looked up and yelled for me to shut up, or I'd be arrested.

Ashamedly, I closed the window and watched the man pummelled, then taken away in the back of a police car, though he obviously was bleeding profusely.

This incident (1975) has since caused me to fear government, as there is really no one to watch the watchers.

I'm an average guy. I believe the average American will one day discuss, before a hungry death, what should have been done as we watched our rights being erased, one victim at a time.

Is there a way to organize the little courage left in us, without creating a target that will be destroyed, as the powers that be 'save America' from 'homegrown terrorists?'

In other words, are we doomed?

I live in PA and was "pulled over" the other night for being clocked at doing 56 in a 25. I know I wasn't speeding I drive down the road everyday and I know were the cops sit, but they insisted that I was speeding. The funny thing is I was supposedly doing twice the speed limit but they didn't give me any points, number one. And number two the cop that gave me the ticket wasn't the cop that clocked me. I was corralled, like cattle, into a parking lot with several other cars, while more cars went speeding by. I want to know if I request a hearing to challenge the ticket will I have to pay court costs and legal fees, which I know cost and arm and a leg, or would I be better off just paying the ticket regardless of whether or not I know it's bogus?

What I mean is most brits/english now pay for their own private healthcare/dental care, put thier kids in private schools etc etc because those privaliges are now over run by immigrants!

but on top of our private fees we will still be paying our taxes for those services which we are no longer using and why should we use them their terrible due to the ever growing population of immigrants!
