An Experience That Changed Me

Does Newt Gingrich know how a debate works?

A debate consists of differing ideas pitted against each other between 2 or more people using their own arguments in a persuasive manner.
Newt Gingrich keeps accusing the media of having some kind of conspiracy to get Republicans fight one another. Would he prefer the debate consist of everyone agreeing with each other?
For the record, he [...]

How long does your hair have to be to give as a wig for cancer?

I’m debating growing out my hair longer and then cutting it to sell for cancer, but if I get it cut off I’d still like to atleast have a sort of bob left, maybe almost shoulder length or something. Right now its a bit longer than mid way down my back, and in layers, but [...]

Poll for girls: Why do you feel that a guy has to do all the work in a relationship?

I’m noticing how it seems almost mandatory with women nowadays, regardless of race, background or whatever, that whoever the girl is talking to or with has to be capable of not only having THEIR sh*t right (ex: good car, good job, dress nice, etc.) but be able to take care of them too (mall trips?).

Ron Paul for 2012 – How likely is it, now that he has received 40% of the votes in a straw poll?

I have watched the entirety of the GOP Debate @ New Hampshire, and I (like many others) was very impressed with Dr. Paul’s thorough analysis and insight upon getting this nation back on track. A straw poll has shown that 40% support Ron Paul. Does he have a chance to catch up to Romney (the [...]

How can the democrats blame bush with a straight face?

When they were in control of the house and senate since 2006? The congress has full spending and legislative powers, not the president. There were problems with his policy but I dont like how democrats refuse to take any blame. They have controlled 2/3 of the legislative institutions since 2006 and thats when the economy [...]

How to improve reading comprehension… please help!?

How do I come out to my parents? 15, Tennessee.?

My mother is very accepting of gay/lesbian people, and, like me, believes that God does not condemn homosexuals, but my father is not. Frankly, I don’t care what he thinks, but my mother would tell him anyways.
