Must be because they hate conservatism, and everything the US stands for.. liberty, defending the country, defending the unborn, allowing the people to make their own choices, free market, capitalism. they rather have everything dictated to them on how to live their life and not have to work for it.

Does it fall under punishment or other legal division?
Is torture ethical or unethical?
For example, someone holds the key to an answer and he's not speaking up but if "you" think the only way he will speak is through torturing him.
Or if someone touches your child and you know he deserves a harsh punishment, is torture in that case ethical?
Please share your ideas. Thanks.

Ok here it goes. I got this e-mail from a lady (which yes i'm on the internet for child providers) that got my info and says that She wants to give me 11.8 million pounds. from a bank called. PACIFIC TRUST inc. LONDON. She is incapacited now and WANT ME to handle the funds.

Now here is the kicker.

She wants me to donate 90% of it to charity particularly abused women and children. A lawyer had typed a contract that I would have to donate this money and not keep but 7% of it. They sent me the contract and I only needed to sign it. No other info

Does this sound familair to anyone?

There's a 12 yr. old girl I know and she prays to God about that but she thinks maybe she should also do something besides praying to him, because he will help her himself, but what exactly can she do? I'm also going to help her, can you please let me know helpful ideas. Thank you....

Before 9/11 bush took the most cavation days of any other president.

dropped the ball on 9/11
Rice attested first she never recieved intel then years later when evidence was there, she said she gave it to her superiors.
pre iraq intelligence - distorted and false
Pre Iraq preparation -- disasterous
4 year Iraq failure
Refused to give Soldiers a .5 % more raise..

Scandals everyone from AG to World Bank ex president.
and everyone in between
4 years to launch a formal 9/11 investogation that was understaffed undermanned.

"promised to hol anyone involved in Plame leak responsible"
commuted Libby
"promised to get bin laden"
Now is not really a concern.

Has turned the budget surplus he inherited from CLinton into a financial disaster of trillions in debt that our next generations will have to pay back.

What has Bush Done right?

I met a young man in university, and have gotten to know him pretty intimately now.

I'm worried b/c he revealed some disturbing things to me about his psyche. He told me he is attracted to children. He actually said he was attracted to me because I look like a 12 year old (I do look very young for someone my age, but I never thought..)

Anyway, it's scaring me a little. Of course, he says he doesn't think he'd ever act on it, and he plays out his illegal fantasy in a legal way by dating 19-year-olds like me who look very young. When I asked him if he could potentially feel that way towards his own children someday; he said the idea is quite disturbing, but he can't offer any guarantees; after all he's considered 8-year-olds as hot before!!

Another disturbing tid-bit: he always tells me he likes to think of himself as 12. I mean I get we all want to feel young; I think I'm young, but at the end of the day I know that I am an adult woman with responsibilities.

Thanks!! =)

One of my friends just got back from Marine Corps boot camp(he didn't graduate he just told me he got kicked out for medical reasons) and he said that the DI's could hit you when outside of the barracks. He said one of the recruits got 4 cracked ribs by being hit by one of the DI's. I know the DI's can't hit you no matter what, but do they still do it anyways? Just curious cause I leave for bootcamp June 1st.

The officer said that I had to scan my fingerprints into the computer and send it to the state capital to check if I had any warrants out and if my identity was legit. Did the officer lie and just scan my fingerprints into the system for future reference or is that usually done? Will my prints stay in that computer? This was in NY.

Iran insists it has an inalienable right to pursue enrichment as a means of generating electricity for a growing population a possible cover to develop nuclear weapons. Tehran's UN envoy Ali-Asghar Soltanieh insisted that enrichment would not be suspended. Looks like Iran is say bring it on tough guy, that being the USA but the other guy in the bar that being Israel might strike Iran a punch first before the USA has a chance and what a mess that would turn into. You can just imagine the response from Iran if Israel bomb its nuclear facilities. Has I write this patriot anti missile batteries are being shipped to Israel and other parts of the Middle east where the USA have interests, US troops are massing on the Iraq/Iran border and the US Marine expeditionary force is on route to the Persian Gulf. It might be good old sabre rattling, that's not going to work because Iran wants a full scale war with the US, Israel and the European three.

I remember seeing a documentry where a gentleman was unable to be a police officer because he was to smart. He tested to high on his IQ test. The documentry showed the test and spoke with the office that created it. I have tried to find information to see if this is true but can't find any. It seems like we would want the smartest people we could find for what I consider probably the hardest job there is.

So can anyone give me any info, or where to find it about how police officers are tested and wether or not they can be "to smart" for the job?

If I had to vote Republican, Fred Thompson has his heart in the right place, and for once he's a candidate who has most of the facts straight.

But - for over two hundred years, a man has been the president of the U. S. of A.. For better or worse,...

In the last decade, the USA is fareing pretty poorly,... The Buck is in pretty bad shape, and most of industry is abroad.

Isn't it time a woman took control?

It can't get any worse, than the last 5-10 american presidents,... including her hubby's tenure.
We don't need another man to make things worse than they are now.
