You know how they get at each other in Washington.
I know from personal experience how they get at one another.
I was one and a few others that were commisioned to paint the people that died in the columbine massacure. of coarse we couldn't just paint a memorial of the people because of the politics. They changed it into a memorial for 911 google travis klopf? In fact it seems that because of how messed up it is in the center of government possibly more tragaty came from the aftermath (which I saw alot of) than the accual tragaty. Is there any idea's how these people could learn to get along enough as to not play silly little games that ruin lives?

Consider, for example, different aspects of how the Constitution is handled, including the amendment process, the elastic clause, judicial interpretation, and legislative modifications.

Today, it was a complete surprise to NBC of the overwhelming positive response they received to this morning's poll:

Do you believe in God?

NBC this morning had a poll on this question. They had the highest number of responses to any poll to date, and the percentage was as follows:

86% of Americans responded in favor to keep the words, "IN God We Trust" on the U.S. monetary currency, and "God" in the Pledge of Allegiance, and ONLY a mere 14% of Americans polled were against these issues.

That is a pretty 'commanding' public response.

Why should the majority 86% of Americans in favor have to abondon their stand and cater to the desires of the minority 14% of Americans, since majority rules?

I'm going to make three points. whoever can refute ALL THREE points accurately and with reasonable logic and/or information gets the best answer.
1. The UN is a drain on the US's Resources
2. The UN is corrupt, including many terrorist countries who hate the US, and so it won't always accede to the US's will, and many times makes a wrong decision.
3. UN is superfluous Ex. When they said we SHOULDN'T go into iraq, and i believe it was also defied once in (the cold war?) by soviet russia, who refused to stop an assault on something X_X

Long story! My older sister and I received Social Security Survivor Benefits from the death of our father, which ended when we graduated. My sister did not graduate on time, and went to summer school to get the required credits she needed to graduate. Soc Sec sent her the checks and a letter saying she was eligible to receive them. After getting the checks and finishing summer school the SSA sent letters to her telling my sister she needed to give back the money they overpaid her.
To cut the story short, I filed my first income tax return and find out the government took my entire federal refund and applied it to the over-payment debt. I have filled out the forms and sent them in. Now I am trying to get my congressman involved to get me some help. I needed that money.
If you want to read the whole ordeal (too long to fit in this detail box) email me and I will definatly email the story, which is already typed out, to you.
If you have any ideas or advice, please do share.

i saw a question in this catagory about if texas became independant so i thought i would ask this question in this catagory.

is texas a nation within a nation? because i have met texans who have said their country is texas and texas was once a independant country.

i thought maybe texas was a nation within a nation, because the uk is made up of nations like england,scotland and wales and they are nations within a nation so is texas the same but a unoifical nation state within the united states?
