What do you think happened to her?

It seems that way when the radical environmentalists want to take away from one for the sake of the other.

were we not fighting them already? Isn't that a bonus that we can take out our enemy at the same time we are securing a country? Also why is it a failure if we don't get Bin Laden. Would you cal WWII a failure too? We didn't capture the Emperor of Japan, nor Hitler.

In the days of King Louis, and King George, government was really there to promote the interests of the kings and their aristocrats. Kings were considered to have God Given powers to rule the rest. Then something happened and revolutions started and the idea of democracy came about..essentially saying that government is there to serve the will of the people, and that literally the will of those millions of poor huddled mostly uneducated and uninformed masses is still actually better for the country as a whole than a few powerful elite and their ideas of how things should be.

If you think that government is best if it represents the will of the few rich and powerful and everyone will benefit from that, then you are oldshool, if you think that government policy serves best the country as a whole if the will of the larger group of people is followed, then you are new school.

Which are you?

NORTH COLLEGE HILL, Ohio -- North College Hill police are looking for three men who robbed a pair of Boy Scouts and their fathers late Monday.

The Boy Scouts, age 13 and 11, were selling Christmas trees in the parking lot of Tom's Drive Thru on West Galbraith Road shortly before closing at 9 p.m. when the men approached, one carrying a sawed-off shotgun, TV station WLWT reported.

"I was hit in the cheek, once in the ear and once when they knocked me down. My head hit the blacktop. My son got hit in the cheek and the other gentleman got hit a couple times in the face," John Hancock said.

Police said the men took about $300 from the Scouts. The tree sale is a fundraiser for their troop.

"I don't care what they did to me. But because they had the audacity to point a gun and attack the children, these people need to be put away. As far as I'm concerned, they should be dead," Hancock said.

No one was seriously hurt.

The three men were last seen fleeing the area on foot. A police dog tracked them for a time, but lost the scent.

A business owner has offered to replace the boys' money.

Bush's foreign policy has stopped Iran from building a nuclear bomb, stopped Saddams' dictatorship, and has almost ridded Iraq from Al Qaeda.

A British man who donated sperm to allow a lesbian couple to have a baby was criticized Tuesday after claiming he is being unfairly forced to pay for the child.

But Terri Arnold said Tuesday that, although originally he had no responsibility, Bathie had changed his mind and had become involved in the child's upbringing.

----------------------------

Excerpts from the article listed. This is wrong on all levels. Look, just because he helped you create a family and then was involved with the daughter does not mean he should be forced to pay child support.

I don't see how this is even remotely justified.

I support immigration to a degree. What if an illegal immigrant came in the country from Mexico b/c he had to support his faimly and couldnt afford a VISA at the time, nor could he wait for the time it took to recieve one.
he came here and paid his taxes, good citizen, went and learned English, got his High School diploma and enrolled in a college? Would that upset you or please you?
Im trying to understand everyone's pointof views on immigration. What is it that bothers you?? I hear b/c they down pay taxes, they take advantage of our legal system, they dont speak english, they arent educated.....so what is it that bothers you as an individual?
Thanks for your time!

Let's just say that while on trial, the defendent's been accused of a murder and there is little to no evidence to prove that he committed the crime. Jury finds him not-guilty and he is now free. Sometime after the trial the police find new evidence linking him to the murder which he has been proven in court to be not-guilty for. Can he be re-arrested and brought back to trial for a crime in which he was found to be innocent if new evidence is discovered later?

We depose Saddam in the spring of 2003. Bush indicates to Iran's leadership that they need to clean up their act. They halt their weapons program in the fall of 2003, but continue obstructing IAEA inspections. Finally, after several years, it comes to light through several different sources that the development program is stopped.

How is this not a validation of Bush's efforts to put pressure on Iran to cease its nuclear weapons development? How is this not a triumph for his policies?

I guess you could view it that he is a great visionary, and a man of superior intellect who is daring and brave enough to follow unpopular policies to steer american down the right path...or...

I heard that over 70% of americans feel the country is going down the wrong path....

But as I was saying, or perhaps Bush is really what we think he is:

All one has to do is look at a map of D.C. and the inverted 5 point start is apparent. Seriously folks, I am not saying our nation was founded by satanists but I don't think they were building a Christian nation. Just look at the dollar. "Novus Ordo Seclorum". New Secular Order. Secular folks. Free of religion.

I personally think Evolution is real but God controls it, but the president has no bearing on this rally so what difference does it make. Darwin only partly got it right, he and science are missing big pieces of the story, but its ok we will all find out the rest of the story one day.
