Awesome conventional mortgage Lender? ?
Anyone recommend a bank that offers awesome rates for someone who has 20% for down payment and stellar credit? Only snag I really need a stated income loan instead of having to prove income.
3 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade agoI think Ron Paul makes a lot of sense. Anyone else think Rep. And Dem. parties are just in it for them?
I don't think there is that big of a difference between republican and democratic parties. Once elected they work on building alliances to get re elected not taking care of us. Let's face it Obama, Bush, they all seem to be serving someone other then us.
4 AnswersElections1 decade agoWould the protest for democracy in the middle east still happen if the USA had not gone to Iraq?
Is this just a coincidence, or does anyone else think maybe a democracy in Iraq helped start this?
5 AnswersGovernment1 decade agoIs it trendy to hate the south or what?
I think it is illy represented through the various forms of media. Especially Hollywood.
4 AnswersOther - Cultures & Groups1 decade agoIf entitlements are already a budget problem, how is adding Universal Healthcare going to help.?
The President said in an interview on Sunday that "Entitlements are a problem". He even referred to them as Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare. How is Adding another entitlement, Universal Health care going to alleviate this problem? Will it save money? I thought an investigator appointed by the administration said it wouldn't. Anyone have a link to data showing a savings would be appreciated.
3 AnswersGovernment1 decade agoAnyone else notice how the anti religion people seem just put their faith in Government.?
I think that is a bad misplacement of faith myself but I am a White Christian Male. So we all know that means I am an ignorant, racist, gun toting hillbilly, who's opinions don't mean anything.
3 AnswersOther - Politics & Government1 decade agoIs radical Islam the greatest threat to western way of life?
I mean if you aren't a Muslim who adheres to the strictest forms of the religion your the enemy. Not to mention to kill a non believer is the quickest way to heaven. So should we be stocking up on food and weapons as the right suggest? Or just ignore it like the left? I really don't know.
9 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoDo the Egyptian people really hate America and it's citizens that bad?
If this is true,then please repay the little over 16.1 billion dollars you have received from our government during 2000-2009 (www.census.gov). That should be a fair price to pay for getting rid of such an unwelcome influence in your country. I mean according to CIA world fact book (www.cia.gov) your GDP is 500 billion, so I am not sure why we send you on average 2 billion dollars a year in aid anyways.
2 AnswersOther - Society & Culture1 decade agoHow much foreign aid does the USA distribute annually?

2 AnswersEconomics1 decade agoWho thinks maybe Matt Danzig should start eating some meat. (UFC Fighter)?
He was not a slouch on his season of TUF. It just seems that he lacks on the big stage of the UFC. I think maybe he should just get over himself and eat something that breathed before it ended up on his plate. Shoot if he ate a steak he might finish someone.
4 AnswersMartial Arts1 decade agoWhy is it politically correct?
Why is it politically correct to bash Christianity but not Allah?
Why is it politically correct to be racist towards whites but not any other minority?
I know technically these things are not politically correct either but we are removing god from our Courts and Schools. Removing God from the pledge of allegiance. etc etc. We are doing all of this to protect the feelings of a few. Which is essentially hurting the feelings of the majority? How is this politically correct? You do not have to believe in these things and no one will force you to but why should we allow ourselves to be forced to not celebrate everything this country was founded upon? On Race why is there not such a thing as a hate crime unless it involves a white offender?
4 AnswersOther - Cultures & Groups1 decade agoGlobal Warming are we missing the bigger picture?
What if this is just a natural part of a planets evolution? What if we are missing the grander scheme of things? I mean Mars appears to have once had oceans, rivers, etc. I guess I believe it is a little big headed of us to think that global warming is a direct cause of man. I have seen the studies and for every one that is for global warming there is one against. (although it seems the ones for global warming get most of the attention) I just wonder if anyone else thinks this might just be a part of a planet such as ours, natural life cycle? I am looking for opinions not a bunch of links to Al Gore as proof.
6 AnswersEarth Sciences & Geology1 decade agoDennis Hallman VS Matt Hughes 3?
Will anyone else like to see this fight. I would, especially since Hallman recently signed with the UFC again and Hughes has one fight left on his contract I think. I think this would be a great opportunity for Hughes to decide if he wants to try and become a dominant force in the welterweight division again or retire satisfied with his career. What do you guys think? Maybe this will spark enough interest we could start filling the UFC in box with request for this match up. Do you think Hughes has grown or is Hallman the man Hughes just can not defeat?
1 AnswerMartial Arts1 decade ago50 Billion loaned to GM to save 88,000 Jobs?
That's over $568,000 dollars per job are you freaking kidding me. lets just say the average income of these 88,000 jobs was 50,000 dollars. that will support all 88,000 people for over 11 years. We could have just paid these peoples salaries for 2 years until they relocated found other jobs etc etc and saved a fortune. GM should have failed it would have been a shining example to other businesses that you can not be to big to fail. What is the motivation to make your company competitive if you know the govt will save you with a bankruptcy bailout package? How does the Answer's community feel?

I have performed this swap in a 73 ford bronco. ( I dont want to hear how I should have left it EFI). The motor ran strong in the mustang but now has a hesitation and will not accept heavy throttle.

2 AnswersSecurity1 decade agoDo you think that maybe electing graduates of law is the wrong people to run the United States?
What I mean it seems these people all to often use their knowledge of law to make unfair wrong decisions for self prosperity. I personally would like to see someone who is from the "Real World" someone who does not have to take a pay cut to become a senator or so forth. I believe these people who take these positions take it for self gain and to the access of the Lobbyist money. Would you rather have a politician who may not necessarily have the Ivy League education but a strong moral base and a go with my gut feeling attitude?
