Um maybe your wife forgot to tell you the bad news.LOL You are correct the systems are all screwed up.Social security sent me a letter saying they could'nt send my payment ck because they needed my address.I kid you not i still have the letter.Then they sent me a letter 2 months ago saying they had sent the papers to the judge and i would get money from backpay.I told them i had been paid and they said no that it was adjusted.2months later i call they say it is now at the check processing dept.1 month later i call and spend another 2 hours on the phone and they now say you are right it was a mistake.AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I could go on theres more but you get the drift.YES ITS BROKE in more ways than one

Government at work, wasting your tax dollars with ineptness and inefficiency.
Liberals say we need to spend more money on, and enlarge government, to correct such problems.
Years of increased educational spending has resulted in increasingly poor education. We need vouchers to allow the private educational system to take over.
i have spent over 6 hours on the phone this year arguing with ATT and Geico over erroneous bills--the amount of money is less than 100$-- not worth my time....
GEICO is still being stupid and i may hire a lawyer to sue them over 18 dollars.... the reason i will do thatis because they are threatening to send my bill to a collection agency.... ATT sent an erroneous 24$ bill to a collection agency...and i let it slide....NO MORE

I don't understand Vouchers I send my kids to private school to keep them away from the low lifes and trash. Now with Vouchers those people would be in our private schools with tax payer dollars am I right?

the price of the existing private schools will double and or triple that's all...cuz you will get the vouchers too.... BUT then the tax-exempt status will be dropped, and muslims will have their own schools too......
the worst part is that all of them, will start up extra fees, and in the end it will just be another "hidden" tax....
wait till your church-school starts trying to compete for government grants.... i have seen the worst behaviour at universities because of grant competitions...

I have never liked the idea of vouchers at all. I just see that turning private schools into the same mess the public schools are.

Glass, I don't know why I'm telling you this, but everyone has the right to vote; that is why we live in this country! If either of you aren't in the book tomorrow, you can vote with what is called a Provisional Ballot.

Kate, i am good to go... we have no party affiliations on our registration here, BUT,
i am a historicaly registered REPUBLICAN, and a male.....
my wife is not..... she has been re-directed to ANOTHER precinct from the one she was ORIGINALLY assigned, i was not!
so if she goes to the new precinct and votes there, it is POSSIBLE (i am speculating here)that her vote will be tossed, and there is nothing she can do about that...they don't ask, they just say dis-qualified, and it's too late after cerification... ONE vote doesn't matter, BUT i KNOW FOR A FACT that THOUSANDS of AFRICAN-AMERICANS have registered to vote for the first time here....

That's what I'm trying to tell you, if you'd put the one brick back, to make the load! The provisional ballot is new, and it is supposed to take care of that issue!

we didn't just fall of the turnip truck..LOL
Goldawter? anyone? we really did campaign HARD for Nixon when i was 8....and 12....and then we kind of lost the taste for it for awhile....
Glass, I wish you the best of luck when voting. I hope you make what you would call a mistake and vote for our President. I think that would be the absolute most amusing thing to come from this election. Good Luck =)
