Baby Talha Ikram was tortured to death by his stepmother and she only received 9 years in prison. She will be out in 5 years or less. Please would you sign the guestbook so that I can print it out and take it to Downing Street - I want to campaign for tougher sentences for child-abusers.

Thank You

Oh yes, do not defend christianity, the A.C.L.U. will cruciffy you.
Claim your an athiest, they'll cover your butt.
Don't take a knife to school to cut your steak, you'll face a felony. Oh yes, don't let your daughter take a nail file.

Like Hillary isn't exactly gorgeous - but they make her presentable and her appearance is well taken care of. Compare Rudy Guiliani with John Edwards or Obama with Huckabee. Only one who seems hot on the Republican side is Thompson's wife Jeri Kehn.

In a time when appearances mean a lot - why are there no attractive Republican candidates?

I have a friend who lives in Iowa and just got served papers saying his blood was found on a money box involved in a robbery that happened in 2004. He doesn't know for sure if he commited that crime or not because he was running around doing illegal things all the time back then. I guess I was just wondering how long authorities have before the case gets dropped all together...? I think it's called statute of limitations?

1. carrie asked: Why the UN doesn't sanction USA?

2. Someone answered: Wrong. Removing Saddam saved Iraqi lives. While Saddam starved to death children, he spent billions of dollars on palaces that included gold faucets. And instead of using plumbing equipment to purify water, he made lakes and waterfalls for himself.

"It is estimated that 500,000 Iraqi children have died because of the non-compliance of the Iraqi Government with [United Nations] Security Council resolutions 706 (1991), 712 (1991) and 986 (1995) since the end of the Gulf War. "

"Despite improvements there are still close to one million children under the age of five suffering from chronic malnutrition in Iraq today - that's nearly a quarter of all children of that age," said Mr. Carel de Rooy, the head of UNICEF in Iraq. "This is unacceptable. More still needs to be done to end the suffering of a generation of children."

3. The company that I work for disagrees with the above poster and his assertions.
