Politics & Government - 28 November 2007

What's so dangerous or unsettling about people who think man is capable of settling disputes without the use of war or violence?

Is living a life of judgement, condemnation, hatred and getting over on the next guy really what we are all here for?

If you believe in a creator or something that unites every man, is war and greed and gluttony and killing really what we were put on this planet to accomplish?

Just because this where we are doesn't mean it's where we should or ought to be.

Really, with all of the people who call themselves religious or conservatives or Christian or whatever this is really the reason we exist?

One of the things I think that is important to keep in mind is that the governments and military's of the earth are at least 25 yrs ahead of what you and I the commoner get to play with. I believe 25 is a very conservative number

Think about that - I can call Japan on a cel phone while standing in a park in the middle of no where with no wires needed - the hook up via space satilites

I can google a map of almost anywhere and count the cars on the road of my choice

Boil water in a micowave in seconds - The internet , the fax machine - and a lot of stuff I've taken for granted so long now I have forgotten to mention or think of

Most of the above happened in my life time - I was born - no fax internet or cel phone - etc

So if the "big boy's" have at least 25 yrs of technological development on me

What are they playing with

What is the most out there - tech you can think of -?

Rank the Republican candidates based on their performance in the November 28th debate, from best performance to least. Feel free to explain or annotate if you wish.

1. Mike Huckabee - witty, well-prepared
2. John McCain - affirmed that he is the most moral, ethical Republican candidate in this race
3. Rudy Giuliani - bickering with Romney made him look petty; if pro-choice/pro-gun-control views get booed in Florida, doesn't bode well for the real Red States
4. Mitt Romney - bickering with Rudy made him look petty; comments on torture made him seem cold, especially after McCain's rebuff; comments on Confederate flag from a Yankee won't play well in Deep South
5. Ron Paul - didn't respond well to McCain's attacks; rant about North American Union conspiracy made him seem too bizarre/eccentric
6. Fred Thompson - not heard from very much, seemed poorly prepared and confused
7. Duncan Hunter
8. Tom Tancredo

How is it that you can be within walking distance of a police precinct and have your car broken into? And then when the police is called it takes twenty minutes to get there. Serve and protecting who? People think that just because a precinct is placed in a "high crime" neighborhood that work does not need to be done in that neighborhood. Clean up around your home then work on your surroundings. You can write me a ticket for going over the speed limit miles away from your area, yet you have criminals right under your nose stealing, and killing. Could it be because financial gain is more important or are they just scared to really protect and serve?

....where all theories were equally plausible and valid, do you think he would change his position every day or so like most democrat politicians?
-
Do you think he seems less flexible because he has to try to pick the right answer in advance, rather than position himself to be able to say he picked whatever turns out to be right in 20/20 hindsight like most democrats?

I believe it was a quote from Winston Churchill.

Anyway, do you know any elderly people? People older than say 70?

If you've ever really sat and chatted with people of this age group don't they actually go back to being more liberal as they reflect on their lives and some of the choices they made being conservative through their 30-60's?

It seems that's more the case from the older people I have known.

I gave all the evidence to the police at my school and they said they are ready to make an arrest against the student that stalked me and sent terrorizing messages.......but now I am getting scared! I just know that if he knows I went to the police he will retaliate and make my life miserable. He also has to sit through a judicial review at my school, and he will use it as an opportunity to slander me and say I am a slut whore that wanted him........or he will tell the police I am a drug addict or prostitute or something......What should I do? I want to do it to protect all the women in the future that may be terrorized by him......I just hate all the names.....I hate being called fat, ugly, and slutty by him. At the judicial review he will turn it all around and say I am a psycho path. What should I do? Has anyone out there ever had a stalker arrested or made charges against someone that abused you.....Will I have to testify in court? Or will they just use my statements.......?

Why doesn’t the American congress all stand together. What has bush accomplished other than to bring the dollar down?
American congress is the heart and soul of the American people, so why are they standing by, and let President Bush and his team bankrupt America.
Please ask your congressperson to stand up for what is right, and impeach him for lying about why he went into Iraq in the first place (to get rid of the nuclear bomb). How much more do we Americans want the dollar to go down? A bad idea starts at the top.

The non costodian father served me with parenting plan papers. He filed the papers 10/29/07, and served me 11/28/07, and on top of that our court date is set for 12/12/07. I have no time to file a response or get legal help or even do basic research that a person would do in this case.

The papers served to me have a paper inserted in it stating there is a non contested court date on 12/12/07. None of the paperwork is filled out correctly. My name is grossly mispelled, and birth date is wrong. My daughters age is wrong, and her grade level is not correct. Basically they have one legal stamp that is on a blank piece of paper, and all the forms are really fishy. He is asking for alot for not ever seeing is daughter in more then 7 years also. The court date is whited out, and new one is written over the old one. The real date says somethign different.

My questions is
Can I contest a non contested scheduled court date on the basis that I was not served on time.

Wouldn't that show tremendous faith in the power of democracy?

After all, how stable can a peace agreement be if the People are not behind it?
