There's just no way a Republican can win against Obama or Clinton. So, why waste taxpayers money on the election if they can put the money to better use, like Bush favorite war Iraq?

Those who object to the teaching of evolution feel that it contradicts their interpretation of the Bible, and want students to be taught "all of the theories" of how the world started, am I right?
Well, creationism isn't a theory that is backed up with any scientific facts, but let's throw them a bone and put it on par with evolution. What about Hindu creation myths? Native American creation myths? The ancient Greek tale of the titans?

The pictures of the young celebrities (ex. vanessa hudgens) that are quite innapropriate...are people being punished for exploiting them? I mean to me it seems like a child pornography case in the making. Opinions please.

I live in Florida. I've lived with my boyfriend over a year. Recently while up in Ohio for the holidays we broke up. He put me on a plane back to Florida and took my key. My name is not on the lease of the apartment and his mom pays the rent but I get all my mail and bills sent there. I have ALL of my clothing and belongings in there. I have lived there full time with my pets and him for over a year. He doesn't get back for another week and I need at least some of my stuff. My friend(cop) said I can legally break a window because I'm locked out of my home, but I would rather just get a locksmith to open the door. Every time I say I'm going to get my stuff, he says he has people watching the house and if I go anywhere near the house I'm going to get sued. I don't plan on taking or destroying any of his things, Just what belongs to me. Can he sue me? Am I allowed to go get my belongings? Am I allowed to still live there even since its my home

Let's say you're married. Let's say while you're married, your spouse has an affair with another man that leads to a pregnancy. Let's say your spouse tells you the child is yours. Let's say less than two years after the child's birth, the spouse leaves the marriage, takes the child and commences collecting child support with the full knowledge that the child was fathered by another man. Is there any crime committed here? Is there any action the man who didn't father the child can take? Or is it just an unfortunate case of being the victim of unscrupulous bottom feeders?

Every president that has ever been in office has left something in the white house for future presidents to use or keep in the white house. Why did Bush jr. take the solar panels that ecologically-green Jimmy Carter left on the white house? I think this shows just how stubbornly convservative and close-minded Bush is.

This is a question for those with knowledge of ENGLISH law! If a person in England was off work ill and in receipt of Statutory Sick Pay, could they obtain legal aid in order to get divorced? (I know they could if they were on Income Support, but I don't know how it stands with sick benefit.).

The person concerned has a live-in partner who works and earns a modest salary and they pay rent to the council. The partner has an 18 year old child from a former marriage who is at college and lives at home with them. The person himself has 2 children who live with their mother and he does not currently pay them any maintainance at all. (Yes, I know, what a pig!).

He SAYS he is off work sick and in receipt of SSP so can't obtain legal aid to fund a divorce from the mother of his children.

Something here isn't quite adding up... is he telling the truth or CAN he obtain legal aid?

Hi

I was wondering what kind of armor would be worn during the Middle Ages and how it would stand up to various weapons (Swords, Axes, Pikes, Bows, Crossbows etc.).

How much did it weight. How as it worn. How it was made. I am interested in Erupoean armor in particular. I would appreciate any information you can give me.

Thank you

My Social Studies teacher told me that he wasn't sure of this trueness but he had heard from a number of credivle sources that said that during the Cuban Missle Crisis there was a standoff and the U.S told the Soviets if they move there ships any closer or surfaced there submarines that we would blow them off the face of the Earth. I know that this may be classified but anyone that was there could you confirm this or if not give me some nonclassified information or where i could find it?
