The case has to do with whether the information should be admissable in court. The decision nor laws deny parents the right to evesdrop on their kids. The police asked the mother to gather information and offered the mother a reward to do so after they were denied the ability to wiretap the phone.
Independent1 - liberal and conservative in US politics bears little resemblance to their dictionary definitions Of course they don't but my point is conservativism in US politics today has no more to do with "being your own man" than liberalism. Maybe the growing population of Independents are actually the the ones who carry the value of "being their own man"?
I guess it all depends on one's personal perception of "God". To me God is simply the ultimate reality and creation whatever IT may encompass. Maybe just the laws of nature, evolution, the big bang, or however far back science and reason takes us. I guess if I had to define myself at this point in time I would consider myself a deist. I was raised in a christian family and believe in many of the teachings of Jesus to be moral and just, h
The call-word of conservatism is "be your own man". The call-word of liberalism is "we're in this together". Liberalism as defined by Merriam-Webster 1) the quality or state of being liberal 2) a movement in modern Protestantism emphasizing intellectual liberty and the spiritual and ethical content of Christianity 3) a theory in economics emphasizing individual freedom from restraint and usually based on free competition,
If you take a good look you will notice that pro athletes salaries started to skyrocket when cable TV was further deregulated in 1996. So although I tend to agree with free market economics, the fact is that companies like Disney buy up networks like ESPN and then force the cable companies to offer all or nothing channel tiers. Broadcast rights provide the lions share of sports revenues so people need to look past ticket prices when addressing this
"If you were to look at what the majority of Americans want in social, economic and foreign policy it would not be at either the far right or far left. The problem we are faced with is that the policies that the moderate and left want are ignored by the GOP in power. Thus our nation is not seeing policies- economic, social or foreign -that meet what the majority want. Polls during the election showed that 60 % wanted major changes in the Bush policies
"The telling statistic is not in the turnout, its in the results. Calhoun county has 82% of those registered as Democrat and only 11 % Republican and Bush pulls 63% of the votes? Duval county has 37 % Republicans compared to 46 % Democrats and Bush pulls almost 60% of the votes? Even in counties won by Kerry, its not by the margin one would expect. Gadsen county 83% registered Democrats compared to 11% Republican, and Kerry can only get 70 % of the vot
It will be interesting to see if anyone gets caught with their pants down this time. I don't trust either party, As we know both parties have participated in such shennanigans at one time or another andI suspect one, the other, or both did this time. If so the question will be at what level it was orchestrated from. In any case I try not to speculate too much from the get go. One thing I did notice were the exit polls. They were leaked to sta
As we exit another election period and the rhetoric continues I wonder if we as a nation truly know what we have voted for. I know both major parties are panderers so I try to look at the bigger picture. What is the true agenda? What is the overlying policy? The bigger picture to me is not who am I voting for, but what.
