A. I've been saying for years that multiple parties would force much more cooperation and the country would be in better shape. Alternatively, mandating that bills must be passed with 60% approval would also significantly increase cooperation and limit the wild policy swings we have every time one of the parties gains control. In response to the last answer, we don't live in a true democracy, nor should we. The reason we have a republic is to protect the rights of the minority. A true democracy ends up looking like a totalitarian form of government for those people in the minority.

Q. I'm just curious. I think it would be awesome to bring it back. For those who don't know: The Rhinoceros Party was a registered political party in Canada from the 1960s to the 1990s. Operating within the Canadian tradition of political satire, the Rhinoceros Party's basic credo, their so-called primal promise, was "a promise to keep none of our promises." They then promised outlandishly impossible schemes designed to amuse and entertain the voting public. ( Here are some of their platform promises: * Repealing the law of gravity * Paving Manitoba to create the world's largest parking lot * Providing higher education by building taller schools * Instituting English, French and illiteracy as Canada's three official languages … [cont.]

What do you think of this blog post regarding baby naming in Morocco?
Q. Morocco: Disappearing the Amazigh So it looks like the Moroccans are at it again. Instead of just letting people be who they are, the government is still going on about their naming laws. In other words, if you want to give your child an Amazigh (Berber) name, tough luck. Moroccan human rights groups recently proposed a list of Amazigh names be added to Morocco's approved list of names, however, the proposal was quickly struck down. Alarabiya reports:The Moroccan civil registry recently rejected 13 Berber names after receiving a list from the Ministry of Interior with specific Berber names considered in violation of law 99-37 that determines names fit for males and females. Now, realistically, it's a much smaller percentage of Moroccans… [cont.]

A. It's an interesting subject. Personally I don't know many Berbers who actually want to use Berber names but I am sure they exist. It's surely different in different Berber areas. As a Muslim convert I am well aware that your name does not have to be Arabic and other names from other cultures work for Muslims as long as the meanings are not shirk, against Islam or the like. It's a multi-sided issue, one you can consider without Islam or one you can consider with...that just depends on the thinker. I don't really think "all hell breaks loose" when you try to name your daughter Numidia lol. ;-) Why would one want to name their child the name of a piece of land from years ago? I don't know about the rest of the country but in Agadir… [cont.]

A. 1. Good luck on that one. Only states are enforcing, not the country as a whole. 2.If our beloved country would quit dipping into the "honey pot" then that would be feasible. 3.If wages versus cost of living would allow then I would be the "happy homemaker" but reality sets in really fast when the bills hit. My dad, back in the 60's made $5.00 an hour and paid bills and put food on the table, plus bought a car and had recreation money. Our minimum wage is only $2.00 more. It's the 2000's. What's wrong with this problem? 4. Offshore= NO taxes. That's why they are offshore. 5. Tea Party

A. Yes; it isn't about the environment. The gig is a world government and so-called global warming is just a method. Scientists have shown that the world has been cooling since a few years after the sun started cooling and will be cooling for at least thirty more years. Obama seems a bit late but not really as - it is not about the environment so science can be safely ignored if it doesn't agree with his and the Euro-elites agenda.
