They can legally not hire or fire you because you wore a purple necktie if they don't like purple neckties.

No one I know is afraid of rhem.
They pretty much only pick on each other.
They don't bother regular folks much.
A good rule of thumb is if someone tells you they are in the mafia it's a sure bet they aren't.

Has anyone ever heard of Birch Beer? I've just recently heard about it/ found out what it was. Is it any good? (Just wondering, I don't drink soda so idk.)
I like birch beer, It reminds me of a mild root beer.
Not too harsh. I will buy it whenever I stumble on it at the store. It's kind of hard to find sometimes but I think it's very good.

Answer to:
Given the corporate abuses that lead to this economic crisis, do you think CEO's should have a nationaly imposed salary cap? No one has the right to make billions while others starve.
Our current economic crisis is the result of free trade (NAFTA GATT).
With millions of jobs lost as a result of free trade and outsourcing the economy collapsing was inevitable.
Ross Perot called it way back 1992.
I don't think capping salaries would have any positive impact on the economy and is counter productive to the whole capitalist idea that this country is famous for.

How or why did the Bible become involved in the Swearing-in of new USA Presidents and before testimony in court? I understand that very few of the founding father were Christian, so swearing on the flag or the Constitution sounds more reasonable.
Actually the majority of the founding fathers were VERY religious.
Of the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence, nearly half (24) held seminary or Bible school degrees.
The rest were proportionately as religious as the general population in that time period meaning almost all of them with the exception of a few who were better described as deists.

My fathers parents I am not sure of because I was not that close to them but the ages would be similar.

I am pretty sure my friend is looking at porn on the web. I obviously don't agree with it, but I don't want to lose them as a friend. Should I let the issue go or talk to them about how it makes me feel uncomfortable?

Women rarely kill children and when they do it's usually their own child and even that is extremely rare. For a female to kill an unrelated child is even more rare and really weird.
I almost think there is more to this. It just strikes me as too weird for the killer to be female.

Despite the fact that the term 'civil war' is an oxymoron, do you think that such a war could occur on U.S. soil in the near or distant future? What are your thoughts on the subject?
Since the definition of a civil war is two factions fighting for control of one government there never has been a civil war in this country. Our war between the states was one government forcing it's will on another for whatever reason right or wrong.
That being said I suppose it's possible although highly unlikely.

Do you ever just pick a person on AB, and go through their questions and answer them, or do you just sit on the new arrivals page?
I point fairy some people occasionally rather than answer their questions.
I did that to someone this morning actually.
They are not on my friends list but I admire the majority of their answers so I go through and give them lots of points.
I worry they might think I am a stalker so I usually just leave points and maybe one comment along with the points.

Number two I doubt anyone who was a high ranking Nazi would even admit it so unless I tortured it out of them so I would have no way of knowing.

We actually aren't a democracy and never have been, we are a representative republic.
Regardless of what we are though it does suck that we only elect rich elitists who have no real grasp of what life is like for the common man in this country.
Our elected leaders are completely out of touch with their constituents.

Why do you think there is more crime today?
Actually crime is on the decline nationwide. It just gets more press coverage than it used to when it happens. Crime spiked in the US in the late 70's through the 90's with a rather sharp decline since around 1999 to 2000
There has been a fairly dramatic drop off in violent crime in particular in the 2000's

I'm not terribly crazy about thongs but it's a small issue in the grand scheme of things.

I would like to know the opinion of others over the idea of a 17 year old girl (obviously still in high school) dating a 25 year old man!? Obviously we all know this is illegal...but is there much of a chance that the relationship will even work out?
Where is this illegal? The age of sexual consent where I am from is 16.
I'm not sure what it is in this state as I am not interested in girls that young anymore.

Christians are not and never will be perfect, just saved according to the bible, Something to the effect of "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God", No one is perfect nor are they expected to be which is biblically the reason for Christ dying on the cross. You ask forgiveness and accept his sacrifice for your sins, not his.

Yes unfortunately, I have worked with horses for 37 years and have put 2 of them down.
It's never easy.
Not to be graphic but the simplest and quickest way is to make an imaginary X between the horses ears and eyes and place the muzzle of a gun right in the middle of the X.
It's quick and happens so fast they never know what hit them.
It's more traumatic for us as humans than...

Does anyone really give a rat's patootie what Matt Damon has to say about politics?
You might as well ask your cat about quantum mechanics.
You'd get a more informed answer.
Actors are about the least informed people regarding politics on earth.
They live in an entirely artificial world both onstage and off and have no clue as to what life is like for us everyday folks.

Does anyone else get completely mad at the coverage of the election, one way or the other, i personally am mad at the love that obama is getting, what makes you mad?
Actually I am sick of the Obama love fest myself.
On the upside I believe that all the coverage Obama is getting is going to backfire on the democrats and cause republicans to come out in droves to vote against him much like the Mondale-Reagan election in 84.
Mondale/Ferraro were the media darlings and the favorites in the polls and it looked like they couldn't be beat.
Mondale lost by...

Answer to:
Why do you think all the hate speech and violence are originating from Republicans?
Republicans as well as democrats are both capable of hate speech but if you want to see true hate or violence disagree with a democrat or a liberal.
Democrats are notoriously more prone to riots, violence and civil disobediance than republicans.
You rarely see republicans roting or causing civil unrest, There are exceptions of course but it is rare.
Conservatives are simply...

Answer to:
How long have Republicans been conducting fraudulent voter campaigns to stop Democratic voting?
The Democrats are generally the ones who conduct fraudulent and dirty voter campaigns and count and recount votes trying to get the numbers to support their candidate.
Too bad the republicans are too conservative to lower themselves to fight as dirty as the democrats.
Todays polls show McCain and Obama in a dead heat.
It could go either way but I strongly suspect it will be another Mondale/...

I have some friends who smoke pot and they are in their 40's and early 50's. I don't smoke pot and haven't since I was 19.
They started calling me straightman because I don't indulge.
I don't care if others do. I just don't do drugs.
I do drink occasionally though. Hence the name.

How do you think he plans on funding this?
By taxing us to death of course!
