Do Republicans think creating fear is the way to renew their image?

They are starting to run out of ideas and the ones they have (witness the latest scary boogieman video) are really turning people off. Didn't they learn anything from the McCain smear and fear campaign?Do Republicans think creating fear is the way to renew their image?
Fear is what the administration ran on for the last 8 years. One would think they would learn...Do Republicans think creating fear is the way to renew their image?
fear of what....global warming? Christianity? tea bags? low taxes and personal responsibility? the world hating us? 911? hetero sexual marriage? what??????








Mccain is in the wrong party he is as liberal as a kennedy
You mean something kind of like how we're all going to melt and die if we don't pay a carbon tax to save the planet? Sure, it all makes perfect sense and the Republicans have the market cornered on fear tactics.
Wouldn't hold a candle to your little Barry and Co. Looks like everything is a crisis with these yo-yo's, not to be wasted in aiding their socio/fascist agenda.
umm no not really...we have plenty of ideas, but the brilliant dems just keep spending money and puting us in 70 years of debt. this tends to cause a little fear, dont you think?
I dont know about ';renewing';, republicans have been fear mongers ever since Nixon's brilliant ';war on drugs'; began.
You should stop being Republican and go conservative.
What about the way Obama used fear to push his agendas through, huh?
it worked for Bush...all those fake terrorist alerts got him re-elected.
what are you talking about??

Any tips on creating a budget for those very tight on money with debts?

Do you know where i can get worksheets for this? Free of course!Any tips on creating a budget for those very tight on money with debts?
I dont know where you can get worksheets but I can give you a few tips.





The main thing is to be realistic. if you set yourself an unrealistic budget you will not be able to stick to it. What you should do is go through all your receipts for groceries etc and see what things you keep buying.





You should set aside some cash for junk e.g. about 10 bucks a week and you can spend that on junk food and at the dollar store and not feel guilty and not go overboard.





Dont walk around with your credit card.Any tips on creating a budget for those very tight on money with debts?
Get rid of your car. Many people waste so much money on a car. Payments, insurance, etc...





If you cannot live without a car, buy a reliable old car paid in full to get rid of your monthly car payment. Then you can get bare bones insurance that does not cover your car if it is your fault.





Also, quit eating out, live lean, don't be wasteful, do not be vain about it. There is nothing vain about filing bankruptcy.
Get down to your local library tonight and start checking out personal finance books - they can be wonderfully empowering and inspiring, and most are written in simple, easy-to-understand terms.


-The Complete Idiot's Guide to Personal Finance in your 20s and 30s


-The Complete Idiot's Guide to Managing Your Money


-“Smart Women Finish Rich” or “The Automatic Millionaire”, by David Bach (*excellent for people with debts! A lot about setting priorities!)


-any Suze Orman books
Read this Book - Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey. I read this back in August and he walks you through, step by step, how to get out of debt. It's a no frills book with a lot of grounded common sense.





There are a lot of sites offering free budget templates, but they felt very limited in scope to me. The budget on the following link worked really well for me, but I had to ';tweak'; it to allow it to anticipate my spending need several months from now.

Good Luck to you. But remember that a budget is of no use if you don't have a plan. Read the book and it will help you devise how you build your budget.
Check out a program for www.couponsense.com You will be amazed on how much you can save monthly on your groceries. It's not free, but you will save more money than you ever could imagine.

Charities dedicated to creating jobs and employment opportunities?

Does anyone know of any organizations dedicated to creating jobs and employment opportunities? Not necessarily for disabled people or veterans (although if you have any names of charities dedicated to jobs for those people, that would be equally appreciated), but just any sort of organization committed to creating careers. If possible, it'd be nice to know some names of agencies located in or around Maine or New England-- but, any sort of charity, no matter where the location, will do! Thankyou for your time.Charities dedicated to creating jobs and employment opportunities?
I'm sure there are others, but at the moment I can only think of the Goodwill.

  • When creating a contract for work, what steps are needed to make the contract binding?

    Not sure how to word this question: basically, I'm trying to figure out how to create a contract between two parties for work. The details and terms of the work are written out in the contract, and both parties sign the document. But what steps need to be taken to make the document legally binding? Is it enough just to have the document notarized, or do there need to be witnesses as well? In other words, how do I make the contract ';official';.





    Thanks.When creating a contract for work, what steps are needed to make the contract binding?
    In order for a contract to be valid it has to be legal, show a meeting of the minds, and have some form of consideration. Meeting of the minds means you're both on the same page and understand what each party is required to do. Consideration is what each party receives in return. For example, if it is an employment contract, you receive consideration in the form of compensation and the employer receives consideration in the form of you performing a service. As long as you have those three things a contract is binding whether or not it is signed. Verbal contracts are just as binding as written, just harder to prove if one person tries to back out. Getting it signed by both parties is the best way to show that there is a binding agreement. It doesn't have to be notarized or witnessed, but if that makes you feel more comfortable then have it done. It's ';official'; when it has the three requirements of being legal, meeting of the minds, and has consideration.When creating a contract for work, what steps are needed to make the contract binding?
    No notorization is not enough.You need to have 2-3 witnesses sign and date this contract.I am a business owner and do this daily.

    How a travel portal is created? What can be the cost of creating a travel portal?

    A travel portal needs a website but how the airlines, hotels, cruises, buses, rails are linked. Is it GDS or linking of individual airlines websites, etc. I need more information on thisHow a travel portal is created? What can be the cost of creating a travel portal?
    They are linked through affiliate links. You go to the websites and sign up to become an affiliate. Lets pretend you want to make links on your website to travelocity flights for airlines....so you go to travelocity.com and look at the bottom of the website. You will see the words ';affiliate program'; in small letters. Like this: http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w106/鈥?/a>


    Click on that to sign up. Once you sign up, travelocity would give you links for whatever flights you need links for. They may even have links that self update if you want a website that updates itself. So if you want to promote hotels, find a hotel affiliate...check hotel.com...look at the bottom of their page for the words ';affiliate'; and sign up with them if you want to promote hotels....this is how you do it. Just sign up for affiliates, choose what you want to link to, get the links, and put the links on your site. Then you have to log in to the seperate websites to see how much money you are making. If you sign up for travelocity and hotels.com for example, you will have to sign in to both of them to see how much you have made for each.How a travel portal is created? What can be the cost of creating a travel portal?
    I have not worked for a travel portal, but I used to be a website developer for an airline's website.





    We first had to have a Sabre license. Many airlines use Sabre, but not all of them do. A Sabre license was pretty expensive - unless a person is very rich, they could not afford to buy one just for fun.





    We could have written our own code to open a TN3270 connection to Sabre, and ';screen scrape'; but instead we purchased a Java library to do this. This library was called Datalex. I would imaging there are similar products available for .NET, etc.
