They settled in Indian nations where they were not citizens, and refused to leave, right? Then they saturated the place and wiped them out. Isn't it hypicritical to complain about illegal immigrant taking American jobs or other resources, when illegal Pilgrims took Indian lives?

We just stopped selling surplus f-14 parts. You should read about how they were being sold illegally and then we recovered them and put them back and they got sold again. It is ludicrous. And why would we be selling them anyways? Who do we think needs spare parts for tomcats? The only people who own them are the US and Iran. Hey! I wonder where they are going? I'm glad lawmakers were able to put their feet down and stop that crap.
Here's part of the story.

As a Progressive I do worry about the election season starting so early. I think it will be one of the toughest races as candidates rise up, tumble, fall out, or rise up again.

This election will be more media driven than election we have every witnessed........

If we do not keep it agenda driven, focus on the future, focus on solving major problems.........then the media will trun it in a circus on personalities and flaws.

John Kennedy would not get elected in this election, not would it allow his brother Robert to work so close with him and become Attorney General afterwards......

i have no issue with a larger diverse crowd throwing their hat into the ring......but media focus should not be on who is up this week, who made a mistake (looking what they did to McCain supposely sleeping when he was reading at the State of the Union)

Lets lets candidates speak and find their voice and vision before we toss them away!!

Peace

How does a horse dying (barbaro) make headline news on every station, yet there are soldiers being killed in Iraq that don't even get their name in the paper?

When you consider photography had not been invented yet, I kind of wonder what those who drafted the Bill of Rights would have had to say if they realised that the 1st Ammendment would make the kind of antics the Paparazzi likes to pull permissible. I'd be inclined to think they would have worded it differently!
What do you think??...and does anything need ammending here?

There is a film being made in Imperial Beach California called John from Cinncinati; as the producers, crew, and directors scurry around filming this hbo series; the executive producer by the name of David Milch, notices a family. This family is nothing special except that they have an 8 year old son in a wheelchair. As busy as this man is, he finds every opportunity to stop and say hello to this family and even gives them money out of nowhere. Mind you this man co-produced NYPD blues and Deadwood plus many more (he's all over the web). I just find it awesome that such an important man can take the time to look upon a less than noticed family and brighten their lives with his generosity. There should be more people like David Milch in this world. I do plan to give this series a chance (don't know if it will be good or not) but the executive producer deserves it. This does sound corny, but bad things are always on the news; why not make room for someone doing a good thing.

It should have read!
Is the dinosaur extinct, or are they still with us ?
When I wrote of dinosaurs I DID NOT MEAN the animal kind,
but large corporations.
Chiefly the BBC.
I put forward the case for dissmantling the bbc and what a waste
of licence payers money.
Are people so dim witted that they think I am on about the animal
dinosaur ?

SO NOW YOU MIGHT VOTE FOR HILLARY? THINK ABOUT IT FIRST.......
This is what happens when you have dirt on the Clintons:
1 - James McDougal - Clinton's convicted Whitewater partner died of an apparent heart attack, while in solitary confinement. He was a key witness in Ken Starr's investigation.
2 - Mary Mahoney - A former White House intern was murdered July 1997 at a Starbucks Coffee Shop in Georgetown. The murder
happened just after she was to go public with her story of sexual
harassment in the White House.
3 - Vince Foster - Former white House councilor, and colleague of
Hillary Clinton at Little Rock's Rose Law firm. Died of a gunshot
wound to the head, ruled a suicide.
4 - Ron Brown - Secretary of Commerce and former DNC Chairman. Reported to have died by impact in a plane crash. A pathologist close to the investigation reported that there was a hole in the top of Brown's skull resembling a gunshot wound.
11 CLINTON bodygaurds now dead age 36 to 47. MORE

Why everytime a caucasian juvenile commits a crime their face rarely appears in the newspaper but when its an African American juvenile it ALWAYS appears all over the news and in the newspaper? Oh and have anyone noticed when a caucasian get killed they talk about it for like a month but when a African American get killed they talk about it for like 1 minute and move on to the next story? And dont try to say that it is not true because if you really watch the news thats EXACTLY how they do things around there! I'm pissed that things will never be fair!

but large corporations. One in particular that I am thinking of is the
BBC.
This started in the first half of the last century, in a very moderate
way.
This has now taken on global portions and has completely out done its usefullness.
Over four BILLION pounds is spent by the licence payer to support
this monstrosity.
With the coming of digital television we are to able to obtain many more television stations that are FREE.
As for 24 hr. news sky provides this free.
Channels three/four bbc are for a minatory audience bbc two is
hardly better which consist of mostly documentaries this again
appeals to a minatory.
Again with the radio service the commercial radio provides just as good or if not better service.
As adverts the bbc do this by promoting there oncoming
programmes
Need I say anything about bbc one.
Is the BBC really worth the money that the licence payer has
to fork out

Hi I would like you to share some ideas on products that are worth designing, as i would like to get some user thoughts. It can be any manufactured product (furniture, toys, kitchen tools etc etc) but I would prefer minimum electronic component and something more realistic and non-sexual ideas.
Or maybe to change an existing product shape or improve on it in physical terms, not the programming of it.

p.s. I’ve posted this msg in several area, so if u had already given your opinion then no need to do it again.
