How Do Republican Actions Justify Democrat Actions And Viceversa?

gewcew23 @gewcew23 (8007) • United States 20 Dec 09

If wrong is wrong then it does not matter what the other guy does wrong stays wrong. What does it matter if the other guy did it before you, if the other guy is wrong then you will be wrong for doing it too. Your party affiliation...

Do I want to drive THAT badly?

Amber @AmbiePam (92843) • United States 14 Dec 09

Of course I do. But I didn't expect the huge hassle I got when I went in to renew my driver's license last week. It wasn't crowded, and I didn't have to wait in line. But what was supposed to be simple ended up being a three hour...

Koriana I'd say that it's time to sit. I don't know, seems to be alot of bargains in real estate, if you really have alot of money burning a hole in your pocket. Gold very well may keep going up. The dollar more than likely will keep losing value, which means that...
