Like when a cop pulls over a driver, and lets say that the driver is an off-duty cop, will the cop, who is giving the ticket, know that the person is a cop, like from the database or something, or they don't know till the driver tells them?

My platform:
1) There will be a gradual troop withdrawal from Iraq beginning end of 2008, easing the military presense out of the region.
2) Social security reform, keep the system alive.
3) Universal healthcare plan, as everyone should ideally be entitled for the same coverage.
4) Tax cuts for the middle class, tax increases to the wealthy (top 3% probably)
5) Withdraw from the U.N. and form a more decisive alliance where power is delegated based on the country's standing in the world both financially as well as diplomatically.
6) Tighten border security, illegal immigrants will be forced to comply with strict regulations or be "guest workers" or get out of the country
7) End lobbyists' grip on Washington, D.C. PERIOD.
8) Keep the status quo with gay marriage and leave it up to the states. And make sure ROE V. WADE is NOT overturned.
9) Make smoking illegal in ALL public places.
10) Clean up the environment and focus on alternate energy, without oil companies monopolizing..

There are two main claims to Jerusalem:

1. Israel. The Jewish people of Israel claim it was given to Abraham by God, therefore it is a God-granted land and always will be.

2. Arab people claim they came across Jerusalem during Islamic conquest of the Middle-East and found it deserted. They've lived there for centuries, therefore they think it should be their's.

Currently, Jerusalem is home to historical and religious buildings for both sides dating back hundreds of years. People from both ethnicities currently occupy, neither budging to move. It is a Christianity and Islamic holy site. Both Israel and Palestine claim it as a part of their nation; both want it as a capital. Neither will budge off of claiming the entire city for it's own. So, how should this problem be solved? Who has the right to claim the city (Jews or Muslims? Israel or Palestine?)?

Please, serious answers only. Let's try to keep this as civil as possible. Also, let me know where you're from. Thanks!

I support Ron Paul on many issues however something I recently read disturbed me. This was in a dig story. Voted NO on establishing nationwide AMBER alert system for missing kids. Voted NO to mandatory life sentences for two-time child sex offenders. Voted NO to making visual illustrations of child pornography a crime. Voted NO to making it a crime to take a trip to a foreign country to engage in illicit sexual conduct with a minor. If this is true or false please tell me so. What justification could he have used to vote this way. This is not constitutional. Its just wrong.

Open up office and write the Democratic party members in your state, and tell them you want them to Impeach the president and vice president for the felonies of treason, obstruction and perjury.
It would only take few minutes to write a short E-note and push send.
Thank you for helping your country.

Well here we are facing what could be a simple banal endorsement. Yet one can't help but wonder, what are the real reasons behind it all? I will say that if was a different color candidate the issue would be raised. After all everybody is saying Bill supports Hillary simply because she is his wife regardless. How about Oprah supports Obama just because he is black? Or maybe just because Obama knows that the majority of women would vote for a woman? Do you smell any "conspiracy" here (note conspiracy is in quotes thank you) is it a true political endorsement or just a political tactic? Your thoughts. Thank you.

Bubba Clinton recently said that Hillary can bring America back to the future.

How exactly does one bring something back to the future, when the future hasn't happened yet?

What say you?

of the 3 million illegal immigrants that president Bush let into this country, most of have taken construction jobs away from americans. No doubt they are very hard workers and their doing what it takes to survive. But I feel that this over abundance of workers has caused the country to overbulid homes to an extreme surplus most of them are prefabricated homes. Unfortunately now the housing market has come to a stand still whitch has left the majority of construction workers ,American & Illegals out of work and no way to support their familys. The future holds a pretty bleak picture for these people. you will soon see the foreclosure rates quadruple , the homeless count will rise out of control , Crime rates will increase to enormous levels and our prisons and grave yards will fill beyond capacity. Every since president Bush has taken office this country has been in a tail spin headed for a monumentous disaster.

I scheduled an appointment with a mobile repairman two weeks in advance. He never called to confirm the appointment and I forgot to cancel. When the appointment was scheduled he never stated that his policy was to charge for missed appointments. Now he is charging the full cost of the repair for the missed appointment even though he didn't use any labor or materials. I don't believe it is fair because he never stated this policy to me in any way until after the appointment was missed. Legally, can he charge me the full price of the repair? I think he should have to state the policy when the appointment is made in order to be owed money.

The ACLU defends the Constitutional rights of ALL Americans, including the KKK, churches, homophobes, etc. We libs hate to see the Klan being protected by them, but we understand that the Constitution protects them, too. Does conservative hatred for gays, blacks, women, nonChristians, etc. exceed their support for our Constitution?
