Answer to:
What happens when an American citizen enters into a civil union with a citizen of another country, in the United Kingdom of Great Britain? Based in my own experience, that American citizen suddenly experiences respect and equal treatment by the UK government, and equal rights not available to same sex couples in the United States. Not only that, but that American citizen receives all the rights and privileges of a British citizen, while his or her gay partner from Britain shares no rights in the U.S.

Equal immigration rights for same-sex couples. What can be done to help pass the Uniting American Families Act (UAFA, H.R. 2221, S. 1328) sooner? Not sure, maybe try to write to and/or call the Congress?

Answer to:
Do you believe that President Clinton was the first and only president to fool around while in the White House? Of course not! William Jefferson Clinton was the one who got caught, the joy he brought to so many fanatical right-wingers who just loved to impeach him, despite the overwhelming public opposition -- Now, just look with what a sorriest excuse for a President they came up with to occupy the most influential offices of authority and power in America.

Answer to:
How can Bill Clinton be impeached as President and a few years latter sponsor Hillary for the same position and be credible? Is America's memory that short? This is not mean't to start a political debate (it's in the ethics area). You are confusing an Impeachment with the actual forceful removal from office. In this way, an Impeachment is the legislative parallel to a legal indictment -- in other words, it simply means that charges, whether true or untrue have been brought against a politician -- in this case against Bill Clinton. Congress charged in their Impeachment that Clinton should be removed from his president...

Why did George W. Bush, described by some of his fellow officers as a talented and enthusiastic pilot, stop flying fighter jets in the spring of 1972 and fail to take an annual physical exam required of all pilots? I agree with maddock. There is much evidence inferring that George Walker Bush avoided taking his flight physical because sometime in 1972 the military started including routine drug tests in servicemen's annual physical exam, including urinalysis, and examination of the nasal cavities for cocaine. There are a number of witness recollections that indicate Bush was doing cocaine at...

What are the "job qualifications" one should have to become President? How can we as citizens judge who is qualified and who isn't? A president must be visionary and pragmatic.

But with a lack of humility, a lack of practical wisdom, and no compassion toward people, such a candidate will not be a successful leader.

Rumsfeld even indicated the exact locations where the W.M.D. were to be found, the Iraq's Weapons of Mass Destruction's claim, along with all the other threats, as now we well know, were hoaxes deliberately concocted by Bush administration to conceal its predatory aims in the invasion of a country with the world's second largest oil...

"Where mistakes have been made, the responsibility rests with me." Why won't George W. Bush admit the irrefutable truth that his decision to go to war in Iraq was an egregious error, and there was no relationship between the war and the attacks of 9/11? From George Walker Bush’s sickly perspective, the admission of error/failure is equivalent to a declaration of weakness and indecision, which explains his inability to change course, even if it means the destruction of America. Thus he has no guilt about sending thousands men and women to kill and die in Iraq using the September 11 attacks as an excuse -- You see, the...

Fundamentalists regrettably translate justice into judgment, consequently, delivering justice is not a priority for them, preaching damnation is.

In his initial campaign for the Presidency, George W. Bush, described himself as a "compassionate conservative". What is compassionate about consigning America's youth to a needless and seemingly endless war that has now lasted longer than W.W.II? For as long as Bush has been describing himself as a 'compassionate conservative,' I have wondered whether the coinage was a call for a flexible new ideology or an effort to put a friendlier face on an essentially unchanged philosophy. We were taught that compassion means caring for the ill, homeless, hungry, unemployed, destitute and defenseless -- So, the son of Barbara and...

Bush is at the end of the line as being the worst president since the ending of World War II, because he's 'in way over his head' in all areas...

Do you think that we live in a society where most people want something for nothing? I grew up having to work for it and pay for it. I never expected handouts. Does this still apply? Most people work very hard and have a good work ethic. Some people walk around feeling like they are being robbed by needy folks, but in fact, getting any kind of assistance is very difficult and closely monitored. But you are fortunate, and not everyone has your initiative. And some folks are limited by things beyond their control, like handicapped people, etc.

If you interprete it literally, then you will 'paint yourself into the corner' because the Bible has parts which are not acceptable our modern values regarding human life and human integrity. If you interprete it spiritually, then you are limited by your imagination alone.
