Real estate values have plummeted not because of government aid but because of people making poor decisions with their money after being convinced they could buy more than they could afford. My wife and I will be putting our tax credit into improving our new home, thereby injecting that money right back into the economy. Plenty of us are responsible enough to know our limitations and make good decisions with our money. Do not take benefits away from us because of the people...
...hotel's $650-a-month flower bill, and recently refurnished eight of the hotel's rooms without spending a penny.

When we learned during the coverage that Falcon Heene's family had twice appeared on ABC's Wife Swap, who didn't have the same thought? That if Falcon's parents would...
According to a Moroccan student card purportedly belonging to Garcia that was displayed with her passport, she is the wife of Amer Azizi, a Moroccan terrorist suspect linked to the 2004 Madrid bombings. Garcia's passport bore no traces of travel to Pakistan but did have stamps showing repeated travel to Morocco, her apparent husband's country. There was also a used travel visa to Iran, where Azizi is reported to have fled at one point. And there was an Indian visit visa, but it did not appear to have been used for travel...
