Why does it seem like every Ron Paul fan has an entirely different view of him from the next?

Ron Paul fans are tricky... some of them have very reasonable-sounding explanations for why they like him and others make statements that smack of bizarre conspiracy theories.

If his platform is based on being the opposite of Bush, then why doesn't he run as a democrat or independant?

What stances make him a Republican?

Surprise! No one can come up with a contemporary example of racist republicans, but look at all the examples of racist democrats!

If this is not accurate, please use this space here for more examples.

They are insisting me to use a particular anti-virus. When I installed a better anti-virus, their software stops and prompts me to uninstall it. (Their anti-virus is not at all acting as an anti-virus. It acts as virus informer only)

The bigger issue than the anti-virus is, they are spamming me with the promotional newsletters. I have specifically unsubscribed from all the newsletters. They are again and again overriding my unsubscription. (I asked them to stop this but they responded with unrelated answer)

Can I sue them? Or will there by any catch in their user agreement? (I didn't sign agreement separately. But there were some fineprints in their application)

I am discussing a topic for my paralegal class and we were presented with this situation. When doing leagal research you come across another case which an appellate court in your jurisdiction ruled against an individual whose case was almost identical to your client's case.
When you tell your attorney about the case, she tells you that she is not going to bring the case to the court's attention, because that is the responsibility of the opposing attorney. She then tells you to destroy your copy of the case.

I have read 3.3 Candor toward the Tribunal from ABA model rules of conduct, but I am not very clear on this matter. Any information to clarify would be great! Tahnks!!

A sheriff served me today with some civil papers from a past debt back in college. The sheriff didn't sign the paper upon delivery and the law suit is not very intuitive.

1. Am willing to pay the bill, but not sure how to handle the situation - never been sued before.
2. Not a lawyer but i believe the lawyer filed improper papers after i need some research - I'd like to try an get this knocked out by counter suing on those grounds.

Any ideas/advice will be appreciated.

Do the democrats have a chance to win the white house with Obama or Clinton?

Last 3 presidents: Clinton (arkansas), Carter (georgia), Johnson (texas)

Last 6 losers: Kerry (mass), Gore (tenn), Dukakis (mass), Mondale (minnesota!), McGovern (south dakota), Humphrey (minnesota!)

All of the winners have been southerners, and all of the losers from the north (except Gore who won the popular vote, but lost the electoral vote).

My aunt is turing 62, in June 2008, is it best that she file 6 month before she turn 62 years, or should she wait until she is 62 to file
we were told that it is better to file 6 month early so you can get your check on time, you know the month you turn 62 and and the reducingtion of the 30% and no more than that. I also was told that the longer you waite after 62 years the rate goes up 2 to 4 % like if you are going to get 700.00 dollars at 62. if you are 62 and three months you will get 712.00 how true are these statment, do any one know, and yes we are going to call the social security board, we just want to know what someone else thinks.

i keep hearing that from Bush( how credible that would be?) and his supporters( parrots)!
can you provide any evidence and/or link to support that?
or did they say that they want to wipe out Zionism out of the map? Zionism= Racism= hate=terrorist( specially when armed to the teeth and even posses nuclear weapons!)
they are not the same.
to wipe out Fascism from the map did not meant to wipe out Germany !

In my opinion, you shouldn't be allowed to be a citizen unless you speak English. You are blessed with citizenship from the greatest country in the world, the least you can do is learn the language.is that too much to ask? What level of commitment to integrate does that show if you are here 20 years and the only two words in English you can say are "No English"?

Homeless people is one issue and undocumented is another. Is it still possible to go door to door and get an accurate count? Or are we relying on a statistical sample from some computer in Washington D.C?

"Tom Tancredo is a Big War Advocate But Was a Vietnam War Draft Dodger Due to Claims of Depression"

--He's a flame throwing supporter of the Iraq War and demagogic opponent of "illegal" immigration (as in Mexican immigration, not white people immigration). As a college student, he also was a rabid enthusiast for our war in Vietnam.
But Tom Tancredo, the congressman who invites guests over to his Colorado mansion to watch John Wayne movies, was given a 1-Y deferment from serving in Vietnam. Why? Because he claims that he was treated for mental illness while in high school.

Is Voting and option or a responsibility once you are old enough?

Do people that do/don't vote anger you?

Do people that complain about politics that do/don't vote bother you?

And Why do/don't you vote?

(and if you'd like, how regularly do you vote and are you and informed voter if/when you do vote?)

Oh, and add the country you live in too if you'd like.

Long story short, thanks to my ex-girlfriends mom I was arrested when I turned 18 for being with her daughter (even though she was only 2 years and 2 months younger and was about to turn 16).

The charges were Misdemeanor Lewd and Lacivious Battery and Felony Child Abuse.

The L&L Battery was dropped and the adjudication of guilt was witheld on the Child Abuse due to the circumstances surrounding the case.



My lawyer told me if someone were to run a basic conviction check on me, nothing would come up.

He also said I can have my record sealed, because I was never formally charged b/c a conviction and guilt was witheld.

Thirdly, I was also told I can still get a passport b/c (as above stated) I was never technically convicted.

Are those statements true? Can someone help?

What has screaming, "You're maimed for a lie!" at Washington Memorial Hospital, to hurt American troops done to save their lives? Do you think any of those troops changed their minds about serving their country, after hearing this taunt?
Does telling the troops "You can't win!" bring up the spirits of the troops, or bring them down, so low, that they might believe America doesn't love, or care about them?
What effect does this attitude have on our soldiers, and the opinion of the world on America?
