During the Clintons tenure, every time one of their scandals or crimes were publicized, Hillary conducted intensive photo-ops, using Chelsea as a human shield to deflect criticism for her wrong-doing, like stealing FBI files, travelgate, whitewater, selling pardons, ripping off WH property, selling "over nights" in the Lincoln bedroom, sending thugs to intimidate withesses and scare women who had been intimate with Bill, to hold their tongues, obstructing justice, withholding evidence- just to name a few.

Hillary proclaimed to the media, any probing about Chelsea is taboo, while Chelsea was under-age; now that Chelsea is closer to 30, should the media abide with their past policy if Hillary continues to use her as a shield?

PS As if Hillary were elected, the scandals and abuse of power would not be as intense, when she was the first lady....

It has almost been 3 years now. I was in the army for almost 6 months before I decided to leave. I had a serious problem with gambling that was the main reason for leaving. Forget all the excuses though here is my dilemma. It has been 3 YEARS I have done everything from filing taxes every years to repaying a government debt because they paid me for two weeks pay after I left. I have bought a car a house and even been pulled over. I have got TWO speeding tickets one yesterday and I went to jail for being involved in a disorderly conduct scene at a bar during the summer. I called the GI rights hotline about 4 months ago and told them my story and they gave me a number to call to turn myself in. I called the number a sgt picked the phone up and I gave him all my information phone# social security # and my address told him what I did and asked him what he wanted me to do. When he input my social it returned that I was seperated in 2004???? I never got a discharge what is going on??????????

He gave me the car as a gift a year ago. He has stated in numerous emails and letters that it is a gift and I don't have to repay him. However he still has an outstanding loan on it and is now requesting I pay him for it or he will take it back. He holds the title to the car. I was not on the loan to purchase the car, but I am on the paperwork at the dealership in order for me to carry insurance on the car. He has given me all of the papers regarding the purchase as well. Do I have legal rights to the car? Does he have legal rights to take the car from me?

My last job just got shipped to China. In my new job , I am openly discriminated against because I dont speak Spanish. Most of my co-workers are illegally in the country and have fake papers that get them good factory jobs. Being an American Citizen doesnt mean squat anymore and in my case , seems to do more harm for me than good. What would happen to me if I renounced it ? Get deported ? Go to Jail ? What ?

I think he has a good shot. I won't vote for him. I favor Kucinich and will vote for whoever the democrats nominate, but I can't help but like Huckabee. If you look at the last 30 years, the most likeable candidate almost always wins.

I found out that they are very inaccurate. They are known to say an air bag was deployed when one never was or they will say a car was doing 25 mph when they where going 75 mph, or 75 mph when they where doing 25 mph. usuley the first time they have errors is after routine maintenance like and oil change, transmission fluid change, a throttle adjustment or just about anything. why use this black box in court when there only correct 50% of the time.

One of the powers given to the new federal government by the founding fathers was regulation of interstate commerce. This power was used to coerce more and more control over state governments as time went by.
Companies in Ohio, for instance, were forced to adopt cleaner emission standards to stop acid rain in New England. Federal labor and environmental laws have diminished many individual state authorities.
How can worldwide regulations of the global environment and international trade not lead to diminished national authority as it did with state authority within the USA?

Lower taxes for middle class families by: extending the middle class tax cuts including child tax credit and marriage penalty relief, offering new tax cuts for healthcare, college and retirement, and expanding the EITC and the child care tax credit.

Harness the power of innovation to create high wage jobs of the 21st Century. Investments in alternative energy can create new jobs for the 21st century; expanded access to broadband will bring opportunities to underserved and disadvantaged communities;

Healthcare insurance - If you have a plan you like, you keep it. If you want to change plans or aren't currently covered, you can choose from dozens of the same plans available to members of Congress, or you can opt into a public plan option like Medicare. And working families will get tax credits to help pay their premiums. Hillary would give tax credits to small businesses that provide health care to their workers... Insurance companies won't be able to deny you coverage or

This will supplement the 410 mile Berlin type wall dissecting the West Bank...illegally occupied by Israel and cutting of Palestinians from their Hospitals, Schools and Work Places...including their own Farms and Relatives...

I believe if enough Christians object to this then something might get done to stop it...

Like in South Africa....It is Possible to stop Persecution if in enough people in the World say NO..

The Bogus war on Terror...is a devide and rule Tactic...Make Christians think that Moslems are enemies and Jews are OK...

Bethlemem...

The birthplace of Jesus...Which is now the place where Christians and Moslems are equally persecuted by Jews.
As was Jesus Christ....And in Jerusalem..A Haven for Jews under Christian Persecution.

This Place should Unify All Religions against Oppression.

I Hope that this will be the future...Or is Israel reverting 1000s of Years back to Biblical times....When YHWE Promised them the land From the Euphrates to the Nile..

Does it affect who you will vote for in '08? Does Giuliani's, Huckabee's, & Thompson's refusal to answer change your opinion of them .?
