Politics & Government - 20 December 2007

I'm just trying to be a father,
Raise a daughter and a son,
Be a lover to their mother,
Everything to everyone.
Up and at 'em bright and early,
I'm all business in my suit,
Yeah, I'm dressed for success from my head down to my boots,
I don't do it for money, there's still bills that I can't pay,
I don't do it for the glory, I just do it anyway,
Providing for our future's my responsibility,
Yeah I'm real good under pressure, being all that I can be,
And I can't call in sick on Mondays when the weekends been to strong,
I just work straight through the holidays,
And sometimes all night long.
You can bet that I stand ready when the wolf growls at the door,
Hey, I'm solid, hey I'm steady, hey I'm true down to the core,
And I will always do my duty, no matter what the price,
I've counted up the cost, I know the sacrafice,
Oh, and I don't want to die for you,
But if dyin's asked of me,
I'll bear that cross with an honor,
'Cause freedom don't come free.
I'm an american so

If a husband hurts his wife, and she calls the police, say in the middle of night or any other time, will they remove him from the house? and for how long, if he hits her, how quickly can you get protection from a restraining or protective order? can the police just walk away and leave him in the house??

What are some peoples thoughts on banning Incondesent lightbulbs??

my personally thoughts...

My father is a photographer, and floursent lights wont provide the lighting he needs on indoor pictures.

What about all the poeple losing their jobs who work in Incondesent light bulb facotories.

what about all the interier designs that relay on incondecent, like the candle bulbs that people like to put in windows, or the ones that look like a buring candle people put on chandeliers.

What about heating bulbs for pets like reptiles, flouresents dont provie the needed heat for these pets.

on the brighter side we will all be paying less in electricity bills.

What are so of your thoughts, good or bad on this subject

I know someone who has failed to pay a ticket from the police (minor traffic violation). It's been several months to a year. What do they need to do if they don't know where their ticket is and need to pay this? What consequences might they face for failing to pay on time? We live in NC.

Obama, Brownback and Ron Paul were the only Presidential candidates to sign an oath stating they will implement the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act over the entire executive branch.
Why haven't others signed this oath?

They charged me w/ my tab, which I signed and approved, and another customer's tab, which that other person signed and approved. I showed the manager a print out of my bank statement showing the tab that was charged wrongfully to my card. The manager refused to pay me. Can I do any legal actions regarding this matter?

You guys think that the white house controls the US media! It's the exact opposite! I find it really funny when you think that the government is telling Katie Couric to support them, if it was that way, she would have been "secretly executed" by now.

In the USA you can protect yourself from rape and robbery with guns, stun guns, mace and pepper spray.
In England you are at the mercy of armed assailants.
Why are the British made helpless by laws that supposedly protect them?
