Headline: Obama touts his time away from capital

"We don't need somebody who can play the game better…We need somebody to put an end to the game plan."

What does this tell you about Obama’s potential to effectively run this country?

Does it mean that he can't be tried on 1st degree again? I just finished Jury service on a trial where we were unanimous on the 1st degree, but deadlocked, or hung on the 2nd degree charge. Not totally satisfied with the fact that it is declared a mistrial, but can I at least rest a little easier thinking that if they do re try him, they can't try him on 1st degree again? Or can they?

Ok first and foremost everything here is said with the understanding that downloading music illegally is a CRIME. But think about this if you're worried about lawsuits/ etc regarding music downloads.

Basically everyone has experimented at one point or another with music downloads. The problem is the guilt when you do decide to stop. Is stopping itself enough?

Let's say that you've downloaded a pretty hefty collection over the past year. Now the fact that you have downloaded at all is a crime; if you deal drugs at some point in the past, you're still liable today. But by stopping, aren't you sort of preventing yourself from being caught, theoritcally? If the feds had the choice of going after someone who is still downloading, or someone who has kicked the habit, why would they choose the person who stopped? IN other words,if they could get the guy who sold drugs a long time ago or the guys still doing it,they'd go after the ones still doing it correct? Doesn't this mean ur kinda safe?

It's been over 60 years since the Holocaust, and people still want to track down ex-Nazis and prosecute them before they die. Do you think this is the right thing to do?

She owe's this debt, but can't pay it. She will get a judgement against her, going to court or not. So, my question is this. Will she suffer any CRIMINAL ramifications by not appearing?

Its been on my mind for a while (since the release of the Fort Minor CD "The Rising Tied"). One of the lyrics from the song Kenji makes reference to interment camp refugees signing up for the army and allegedly crewing one of the planes that dropped bombs on Japan. Does anyone know otherwise?
