Okay some of you wont agree with the premise of the question, but those of you that do accept and agree, I'm asking why? What happenned? I'm asking the question because to me it seems like a very important event in our country for the media and a major American political party to lose its and be out of touch!

If we live in a free country, where we are allowed to practice our beliefs. Why deny someone else the same privelige?

I'm a Conservative and I don't agree with the act of homosexuality, but what right under the constitution do I have to deny others their freedom to live as they choose? Are rights only for those I agree with? What about those who don't agree with Christianity or anything else you like to do? What will you say when people want to ban them?
In the Bible I've read I didn't see Jesus running around trying to ban things and control what people did. In fact he associated with publicans and sinners. If he came back today would you also lynch him like they did?

Why not just leave other people alone and work on being the best example you can be.

I don't think so because I don't think Hillary's dumb. I believe she knew the war wasn't in the country's best interests back then but she supported it anyway because it was popular at the time. She only changed her tune in 2005 when the country turned against it. If you're a Democrat, why in the world would you support a candidate who backed Bush on the war and the Patriot Act for 3 years? Do you really think someone like this has the country's best interests at heart and is competent to be president? People talk alot about her experience but does her time as First Lady truly count as experience? And most importantly, does she have the INTEGRITY to be president after supporting Bush for so many years? I don't think so and that's why I'm backing Obama.

I am denied access the buildings that I built and paid for (to shelter me and my possesions).

I was promised a safe home ( I am disabled-heart damage). Their (addict)adult children moved back home and stole from me to support their drug habits, etc.. My brother and his wife denied it until it was proven to them. My brother, and his wife, are also guilty of stealing from me, and allowing themselves and their offspring to abuse me. Their sons confessed to, or were caught in the act of crimes by, BOTH parents. I was threatened that I would loose my home if I didn't let them handle the situation. The abuse continued and I fled for safety.

They have treated me as though I betrayed "family" by my naive ideology of right and wrong.

I was so traumatized that I spent two month in a mental has hospital that specializes in emotional trauma. I receive treatment from a psychiatrist and a psychologist. The cost in property and related medical expense

to obtain a passport that is not assigned to any country? Like I'm English but I would like to obtain a means of being allowed to travel without having to have a British passport. No offense I just hate England (yes, leave then, I know ha,ha) just thought there might be one of those strange International Laws out there that allows you to travel under a different means.

I was eating at this restaurant last night with a small parking lot with tight spaces, with dead ends on every row of spaces, so if there was no spaces. I did a three point turn, and went around the block and parked on the other side of the restaurant where there was a couple spots. 2 hours later i came out of the restaurant and there was a note on the windshield that said i hit their 300c and that they would be in contact, but they left nither their name, phone number, or plate number. How am i supposed to contact them to resolve this if i don't have their info. If i knew i hit them i would of left my name and insurance, since i am out of state and was driving my cousins suv. There is no visible damage to the suv as i could see, but the suv is pretty rusted out, and i couldn't find the 300c to inspect that. There was a witness, should i go back to the restaurant and ask whose car this was. I have my own insurance, i just don't want my cousin getting in trouble for this.

I personally value integrity over experience because we've seen guys like Cheney and Rumsfeld with decades of experience make a TOTAL mess of things in the past 8 years. Experience really is meaningless without integrity and honor. Which is why I can't bring myself to support Hillary. She supported the war and the Patriot Act all the way until 2005 and only changed her tune when they were no longer popular. She has consistently put her political ambition ahead of the country's best interests and to me, that's despicable. As we've seen with the Bush administration, no amount of experience will make up for a lack of integrity and the same applies to Hillary. Besides, I don't think being a First Lady for 8 years really counts as experience. I'm voting for Obama who I think truly has the country's best interests at heart. What do you think?

Why is it that there are so many people in America that hate Liberals?

Is it because of FOX and other news/mock-news out lets?

Is it because they are not educated about what the Founding Fathers wanted?

Liberal is NOT a dirty word, it cannot be, it stands for everything our Founders wanted;

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

Here is what a Liberal is.

"....if by a liberal they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, their civil liberties.. if that is what they mean by a "liberal" then I am proud to be a liberal. " ~ John F. Kennedy

Prime Minister - since leadership is always best by example I put it to you that 1/3 of your wages be reduced and given to the troops - as we the tax payers are paying in our taxes we need you also to pay in your wages

Our Cdn costs are low -

So it should of course follow when your wages are reduced by 33 % the President of the US will want to reduce his wages by 2/3 of it's present weekly net

Oh and Prime Minister since the wage is given to you by us - it should be us that tells you - your pay has been cut

I would like to be number one on that list of people -

Prime Minister as our employee we need to reduce your wages for the war in Afganistan

My dad died and he had a revocable living trust. He lived in California at the time of death. All of his property was listed on the trust. I inherited one of those houses. I am now in the middle of selling the house and the lawyer says that he didnt deed the house to the trust. Well, now the lawyer says we have to file a Probate. The thing is there were 5 houses and all listed on the trust and my house is the last one to sell and now all of a sudden this has popped up from nowhere. I find it hard to believe that he failed to list one and list 4 others. Does anyone out there know what i could do? My house closes on Feb 10 2008 and i have been told that in Oklahoma a probate can take up to 2 years. AND if he has a living trust why must i probate? I just dont understand all of this. HELP~~!!
