I keep hearing about the great medical plan in Canada. My Canadian freind ( he works for me) tells me the medical plan started out great but is running into trouble. His mother lives in Sherbrook.Canada & goes to the hospital in Burlington Vermont because she has been put on a waiting list because she has cancer caused from smoking. He said a lot of people are put on the list if their illness is due to some doctor saying it was their fault they got sick.This encludes people who are grossely over weight or have mental problems. I had heard about the long lines but did not know why. If what my friend says is right, Do we want the same system because we will run into the same problems.Do we want our goverment to say who gets help & when?

My official first name is long ethnic name, which even my parents don't use. I want to change it to my nick name. My nick name is the name everyone calls me by. And most people don't even know my official first name. I am over 25. What's the procedure? Is it just forms and paperwork? And why would anyone pay a lawyer to do this?

"In a stealth maneuver, President Bush has signed into law a provision which, according to Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont), will actually encourage the President to declare federal martial law.

"President Bush seized this unprecedented power on the very same day that he signed the equally odious Military Commissions Act of 2006. In a sense, the two laws complement one another. One allows for torture and detention abroad, while the other seeks to enforce acquiescence at home, preparing to order the military onto the streets of America. "It does so by revising the Insurrection Act, a set of laws that limits the President's ability to deploy troops within the United States. "

The law can deploy National Guardsmen against "disorderly" citizenry - protesters, possibly, or those who object to forced vaccinations and quarantines in the event of a bio-terror event.

My neighbors upstairs complained to my apartment manager about me having a confederate flag in my house and they are offended and do not feel safe living near me. Which makes no sense to me but whatever. So I moved the flag away from any kind of window (let me just say the flag is actually a lynyrd skynyrd flag).

Well yesterday I got an eviction notice stating that because I did not remove the flag from my house I was being evicted.

Can they even do this? I personally do not understand the big deal about this situation, I moved the flag, but i refuse to take it down over one persons complaint. Especially because I have rented this apartment for the past 3 years without one problem.

Is controlling children ...abuse ?

While attending a "workshop presentation" on child abuse a corruption of sorts was noticed.

First the model used was that of 'cult-feminists' a model that attacked men, ie child abuse = men who abuse, women and children victims. You will note the polarizing nature of this half-truth.

At the workshop the 'social worker' got up and stated that child abuse begins with a parent trying to 'control' the child.

What do you think ? Is "controlling' a child, child abuse ?

My 12 year old son and his brother went into a dollar general store and bought a new wallet, the clerk told my 12 year old he looked like a trouble maker, not thinking anything of it they left the store and we went to another store next door. The store we were at does not have a public restroom(orshelns farm and home) so my son went back to the dollar general to use theirs and buy some candy since he had 15.00 in his pocket. The clerk accused him of stealing and called the cops. They frisked him in front of everyone and found nothing. The cop told the clerk 3 times he had nothing and she still insisted, humuliating him more and more. I filed a complaint with the store and they apologized over and over again, (NOT THE CLERK) The district manager called and offered him a 50.00 gift certificate for his embarressment and humiliation, but this totally humiliated him and upset him to the fullest as he was innocent and did not do anything wrong, the active manager even said he did nothing.

values are hard to understand as being the same as the ones taught by Jesus.
Does anyone remember the Christian left when the word Christian is thought of..

I feel many of the Christian right support things Jesus would not approve of like more love for rich than poor//

hating people on welfare and forgetting that Jesus loved the poor and gave the workers who worked just an hour in his parable the same wage (benefits) as those who worked hard all day and we are to share and help others while they loudly express their hatred for people who they perceive are lazy and beneath them

//not valuing peace and deriding peace activists and trusting military over God for protection, no concern about dropping depleted uranium

//love big business and corporations despite its receiving far more tax dollars in corporate welfare despite its tax cheating, job outsourcing, environment destroying, political bribing, etc while having no problem with cutting 50 billion from social program

Last night I went to a restaurant called Applebee's. An employee there repeatedly made trips to the bathroom, but before entering would stop to stair at my wife. Upon finishing our meal, we gathered our things to leave. He was standing outside the front door smoking. He banged on a window and blew kisses to my wife in a suggestive manner. My wife, in a very low tone, said, "Please make them stop." I had no idea what she meant by this, so I asked her. By now we were exiting the door and she replied, "Nothing." As we exited the door, he mockingly asked, "Did you enjoy your meal big man?” while laughing. When my wife and I reached my vehicle, she told me what had happened. I walked back into the building where I asked for the manager and said, "Is that your employee? He made gestures at my wife, which she took offense to. We came here to eat; not to be harassed." She apologized, and I left. I'm VERY upset and want to know where to take this problem.
