It looks like the War on Terror is changing its name to the Global Struggle Against Violent Extremism. In a lot of rhetoric lately (so far by Secretary Rumsfeld and JCS Chairman Gen. Myers that I know of), the term "war on terror" is being phased out and this new term is being used. For ex...

China owns more U.S. debt than any other single nation in the world. The Chinese government, as has already been mentioned, chooses to lock the value of their currency to the U.S. dollar. Doing so guarantees that services and goods that are cheaper from China now will remain cheaper as long as the c...

I don't think that's the case.

I think this needs to be looked at in context. This teenager was a ward of the state and managed to run away and got pregnant while she was living on the streets. It's not like she was living at home with her parents.
