People of substance deal with the reality instead of crying... Why dont they just change their habits a little? They need to ask themselves... Do I need a Ford Excursion if I only have 2 kids? Do I need that trip to the mall every weekend? Can I carpool to work with my neighbor or maybe take a bus like low income people do... There are plenty of solutions around if you start using your brains!

yet most won't actually don't the military and help out the cause? Is it because they aren't as brave and tough as they think they are?

At least they support the magnetic ribbon industry.

Reserved, sophisticated and polite - that's what I thought Brits were supposed to be.

Yobs, slags, chavs - I had no idea what these British slang words meant before I came here. I do now.

I have a few questions on child support...I am on welfare receiving about 360$ a month, my baby is due in about 4 weeks, I have a fiance in which we both want his name on the birth certificate, and the baby to take his last name, but was wondering how and if that could work if a different person was the biological father and I received child support. Whos name do I put on the birth certificate? If I did receive child support from the guy, what kind of rights would he have to see the child? I dont want him to have any, he is a complete pshyco and has done time for stalking an ex gf and he continues to stalk and badger me and my fiance. Also, how much would he have to pay? I dont know if it would be worth the extra money if he had any kind of rights alone with my child. Would there be any way I could receive child support and have a restraining order?I really dont want anything happening that could be prevented, he is a total creep and I do not trust him around me, my fiance,or my child.

So why do people continue to scream that the President is not listening to the people? In our form of government elected officials are elected and then are supposed to do what they believe is the right thing.

Are these people who want the president to listen to the people, do they want to change our form to a direct democracy?

If that is so, would they like to put things up to popular vote such as abortion, school vouchers, taxes, social security, definition of marriage, term limits on congress, environmental laws, hate crime law and on and on?

I believe the people screaming today about the President only want a direct democracy when it serves their partisan interests but would not like AMericans voting on other issues.

Considering her actions during the Vietnam War and now with the War on Terrorism, do you consider her a good American

How will she bear the humiliation.

Does Congress really have to pass a spending bill to keep the war going?

And, if one can't get passed, or the President vetos all the bills, is there a deadline where the war just stops?

U.S. popularity has plunged across much of the world amid mounting perceptions that the United States is running roughshod over other nations and doing too little to help poor countries.

The trend is particularly acute across the Muslim world, where growing numbers of people see the anti-terror campaign as a way for the United States to bully its Islamic foes.

Growing anti-Americanism could make it increasingly difficult for leaders of democratic nations to support controversial U.S. initiatives, such as President Bush's call for assertive action against Iraq. It also threatens the stability of autocratic regimes that back U.S. policies.

In some cases American Popularity has fallen by 30% with countries that are allies.

What is it that makes people be so angry and unwilling to be flexible in acknowleding another's opinion? There is fraud in religion, politics & commerce, yet this site has given you the opportunity to express your opinion while you downgrade mine. What gives?

Everytime I happen to change the channels on my TV and get C-Span as I roam through the channels,there will be someone on the speaker's floor just screaming at the top of their lungs how he or she wrote a bill that will save humanity for the next thousand years,I used to think the Hollywood crowd was egotistical,but these people in Washington all you hear is I did this and I did that,they actually make Terry Owens look like a team player
