It looks like GW vetoed the defense budget to protect the interests of corporate contractors at the expense of U.S. troops.

Why does Rudy get a free pass on all his mistakes on 9/11 and all the lives those mistakes cost us?

The fire fighters haven't forgiven him for the faulty radios and lack of organization... The politicians haven't forgiven him for putting his "emergency bunker" in WTC7 or for wandering the streets aimlessly with camera crew in tow... and the citizens of New York haven't forgiven him for using their dead brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers, and children as a platform to try to hide his failures by making them look like successes or stopping the search for bodies once the armored trucks full of gold were done rolling out...

So why does the rest of the country think he's so great when the people he was responsible to protect and govern hate his guts with such passion?

My boyfriend is just past the age of 18 and recently received a letter from the US Government, telling him to register, meaning that if there is a draft, the men over 18 will have to go to war, against their will. I love him so much and don't want that to happen. He doesn't want to go to war either, and said if it comes to that, we will leave the country or something. What are the chances of a draft happening and him being sent to war?

If so, then don't they really run the USA? Isn't this considered to be a Zionist Occupational Government? Isn't this what the 'crazies' were telling us 30+ years ago about the Zionists?

Generally, I'm seeking personal advice, especially those who are active duty or retired military personnel. Especially in the realm of enlisted and commissioned soldier interactions and interaction limitations.

I do not want advice from military wannabes or hippies.

I was backing out of my driveway and i accidently hit a car that was parked directly across the street. It was parked directly across the street from my driveway. If that is illegal then where can I find proof this law exists. I must bring them proof that where they were parked was illegal.

About a week ago me and my friends went to a bar and one of my friends had a little too much to drink and went to play the jukebox and kept on putting quarters in the jukebox and it didn't work so he punched it (not thinking it was going to damage it) however the glass broke! The bouncer then took his wallet and information and told him the damage is $2,000 and he said okay ill pay for it....

THEN THE BOUNCER WENT OUTSIDE AND HARRASSED HIM AND TRIED TO FIGHT HIM.... after he agreed to pay..

SO here is the question..
As a friend I don't think he did 2,000 damage because thats how much the jukebox is worth brand new.... he did nothing but damage the glass.. he got harrassed and got in a fight because the bouncer... even us girls jumped in and got the bouncer off who also tried to fight us...

soo basically today he is suppose to go to the bar and pay 2,000 and Im saying NO WAY!! I think he should get a lawyer and he can also press charges against the bouncer.. What would you do

I understand the government isn't known for doing logical or fair things, but it just seems so ridiculous to me that because I'm not affiliated with any political party, I get stuck with just Democrat or Independent candidates. I feel like I'm being punished.

I've never really noticed if the same thing applies to the primary elections either. It's just during the preliminaries, correct?

No question laws needed changing, horrific and terrible injustices were commonplace before 1970....

Now that the laws have long been changed, civil rights leaders like Sharpton and Jackson consistently and aggresively pervert Dr King's message- "to unite the races, to forgive, to heal wounds"; Dr King's message is God's message. I won't argue King, the man, wasn't flawed, it's his message that we honor; that's what it is all about.

The laws have long been changed and it's time to cease inciting racial conflict. Sure, racisim exists and needs to end but race baiters prolong the conflict, instead of healing.

Wouldn't it be a tribute to Dr King to proclaim Sharpton, Jackson and all other opportunists to be silenced and politicaly excommunicated on the forthcoming Dr King holiday?
