1. Federal district judge

2. U.S. Attorney

3. FBI Special Agent in Charge

4. CIA Station Chief

How would you use the power for the public good in that capacity? How would you use it for personal gain?

Alright, so every president in United States history has been either a Democrat or Republican (and a few Whigs and Federalists) . My question is really if these two factions (which is what they really are) embody the will of the people. Have you ever agreed 100% with either of these "parties"?

Every constiuency has a member that sits in a "House" often more than one when you add in Senate and then and then


But - here is the plan

1/4 or 7/8 though a term in office if you can gather 2/3 of the voters on a pettition for your constituancy then an election for that seat must be called and that politican must re - run or he/she is out of whatever House they sat in

If someone else wins then - they get to serve out the rest of the term - wether that be a day or 3 yrs 361 days


A way to fire the employee and not have to put up with them for a 4 yrs contract if and when the people feel that it is not deserved

I know of absolutely no one who after beiing hired can not be fired for 4 yrs and I see no reason why a politican should be the exception

Why not support this idea

I was a senior in high school and had to take the attendance sheets into the main office -- everyone was crying and I asked why and they said that President Kennedy had been shot....I walked back to my classroom crying and when I entered the room I said to the class that Kennedy had been shot...a few seconds later the Principal of the school came over the public address system and said that Kennedy had been shot and killed and that school was dismissed for the day. The campus which had over 3000 students was dismally quiet as we left to go home. Everyone stared at one another in disbelief. The entire weekend we watch on TV and actually saw Jack Ruby shoot Lee Harvey Oswald right before our eyes. They replayed footage of the shooting of the President and also the shooting of Lee Oswald. It was a wake up call to a young girl.

President Mugabe unleashed a devastating new blow to Zimbabwe’s mortally wounded economy yesterday, announcing a new law giving the state a controlling stake in mines operating in the country.

Under the Mines and Minerals Amendment Bill, the Government can take over 51 per cent of companies mining strategic fuels and minerals, taking 25 per cent without paying.

The balance of 26 per cent it needs for a majority shareholding will be paid for, it said. However, the Bill brazenly asserts that payment will come from dividends earned from the state’s shares in the companies it takes without having to pay. It gives the state seven years in which to do it.

Congresswoman Iris Varela stormed onto the set of Gustavo Azocar's morning program on Tachira Regional Television, shouting: "I'm demanding a right of reply from this man who has offended me all the time on this program."

The on-air confrontation, in which Varela slapped Azocar several times and then hit him with the microphone, grabbed national attention in Venezuela and is likely to generate a wider debate in the country about free speech issues and the news media.

Azocar is an outspoken critic of leftist President Hugo Chavez, and Varela is one of Chavez's close allies in the National Assembly.

Last time I celebrated Thanksgiving I was 8 , then found out the true history of the Holiday and never celebrated it again . For some reason the slaughtering of American Indians does not make me hungry . I really don't understand the purpose of this Holiday at all . I understand family's getting together and all but not how people can celebrate the holiday knowing it's based on the slaughtering of thousands of people !

Question - What are your thoughts ? and Why do you celebrate Thanksgiving

My daughter would like to know who's cutting down the trees in the Mid Missouri Region because of the gas lines. There were some people who came through our neighborhood and cut down the trees, and she became irritated, because it has rained and they left rubble, and soil everywhere. It has eroded a lot, and they've bloked our entrance to our woods. *Plus made more useless ones for no reason.* She would like to know how to contact them, and have them stop doing this, because they're not even building around our neighborhood and they did this.

Also, we'd like for them to plant more trees around here too, to make up for all the trees lost. We still do not know who did it and how to contact them, because before we could talk to them, they left.

This request was quietly referred to the SJC so it could die a quiet death . . . does the Scott McClellan claim breathe new life into impeachment hearings . . .

If you were Chelsea Clinton, would you feel special knowing that both of your parents served terms as being president? Do you think you would enjoy and feel powerful knowing that the CIA will always be tagging along wherever you went?
