Politics & Government - 29 December 2007

Just wondering where I stand with this one. I have a neighbor who repeatedly files noise complaints which the police find to be unfounded. She talks badly of me to our neighbors. She talks badly of me to people who come to my home to visit me. I gave her written notice that if she continues to discuss me with our neighbors or if she continues to talk to my visitors I will request a civil restraining order against her for harrassment. She is now threatening to file suit against me for harrassment due to noise, to file civil action because I have revoked her constitutionally protected right of free speech with my letter and that I have threatened her with my letter.
Does she have the right to talk about me or to talk to my visitors who have no desire to listen to her?
Is telling her to stop talking to these people or I will request a restraing order considered threatening?
Just not sure what to expect next.
Our apartment manager has sided with me if that matters.

And why does everyone forget Reagan's 1986 amnesty bill ended up granting more than 2.5 million illegal immigrants amnesty? "Ultimately, some 2.7 million people were granted amnesty, and many who were not stayed anyway, forming the nucleus of today's unauthorized population" (http://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/24/opinion/24meese.html ).

..."We judge with high confidence that in fall 2003, Tehran halted its nuclear weapons program".

Per a recent Henry Kissinger, Washington Post op-ed: "....the suspension really applied to only ONE aspect of the Iranian nuclear weapons program (and not even the most significant one): the construction of warheads....The reality is that the concern about Iranian nuclear weapons has had three components: the production of fissile material, the development of missiles and the building of warheads. Heretofore, production of fissile material has been treated as by far the greatest danger, and the pace of Iranian production of fissile material has accelerated since 2006. So has the development of missiles of increasing range. What appears to have been suspended is the engineering aimed at the production of warheads."

So it looks like Iran is still moving forward with 2/3 of the steps to develop nuclear weapons.

Thoughts?

Smog is bad. How can anyone visit L.A. in July and not see that we are doing some horrible stuff to the earth? Litter is bad. There is a floating island of trash in the Pacific Ocean the size of Texas. For real.
Conservatives get red in the face yelling about "environmental whackos" and how it's their right to drive a Hummer just for the sake of thumbing their nose at liberals. You can pay some sceintists off with oil money and convince them to say that global warming isn't real, but you can't ignore the facts: pollution is bad, and there is no denying it is real. Why not make an effort to cut down on it?

If we did not go to war with the taliban, and later with Hussein, more american civilians lives would be lost, correct? Probably a larger number than the troops that have died so far. So why are we complaining? I am not downplaying the value of the soldiers lives, I think it is a terrible thing when you have to lay down your life in the face of someones hatred. But Which is the better alternative, massive attacks on our soil or theirs?

Basically I have a loan with them. I asked for the due date of the loan to be changed to a later date. The branch manager told me that she will do it for me within the next couple days. Well, she never did it and she went on vacation for 2 weeks. I tried to call other members of the branch, but they kept giving broken promisses. The manager came back from vacation, I tried to contact her, but it seems everytime I call, someone would tell me she is at lunch or out of the office. 3 more weeks later, I called the cust. svc. center and complained, then she finally e-mailed me back saying that she had changed my due date for the loan. BUT SHE LIED! It was not changed! I called a different branch and a cust. svc. rep told me to write a letter requesting the change of the due date and he would help me. I wrote a letter, and 3 weeks have passed and he too has given me the run around. It has been nearly 4 months and still no one has helped! Can i sue/do something meaningful to them?

Many say that because of Barack Obama's inexperience, he will be less likely to win. Don't you think that his "inexperience" makes him a "regular guy" that we can all relate to, so that he maybe will understand more what this country needs?

There was recently a judge threw the entire courtroom in jail because no one would fess up to who's phone it was that was ringing. He said that if the person did not fess up, everyone in the entire courtroom was going to jail. So what he do? He had them all handcuffed and sent to prison and now they all have that on their records that they have been to jail. The judge was fired. lol! Do u think this has anything to do with Judge Judy and the fact that she's rich as all get out. It said that she has this reputation for being a tough judge that earned her reputation. Do u think this judge was just trying to get a reputation so he could get his own show? Whatever he was trying to do, it didn't work, because apparently he's out of a job. I think he forgot the 'fair' part if in fact he was trying to do this HAHA! he forgot that judge judy was 'tough' but 'fair', meaning sane. Haha! but what do u think about all this?
