If this is true, then it's another point to write congress about:

The North American Union is envisioned to create a super-regional political authority that could override the sovereignty of the United States on immigration policy and trade issues. In his June 2005 testimony to the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Robert Pastor, the Director of the Center for North American Studies at American University, stated clearly the view that the North American Union would need a super-regional governance board to make sure the United States does not dominate the proposed North American Union once it is formed:

The existence of multilingual ballots increases the risk of election errors and fraud.
Furthermore, not only are multilingual ballots an unfunded mandate, but they are a waste of taxpayer funds because they are mandated by the VRA without regard to whether they are actually used.”

Truly, I thought it would be legal by now, regulated and taxed....Why would it not be? I don't buy the theory it is a "threshold drug".

Is it true that in the state of Illinois, police need a search warrant to search a person's house and without it, will the police get in trouble?

The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was the peace treaty that ended the Mexican-American War (1846–1848). The treaty provided for the Mexican Cession, in which Mexico ceded 1.36 million km² (525,000 square miles) to the United States in exchange for USD$15 million. The United States also agreed to take over $3.25 million in debts Mexico owed to American citizens.

The cession included parts of the modern-day U.S. states of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and Wyoming, as well as the whole of California, Nevada, and Utah. The remaining parts of what are today the states of Arizona and New Mexico were later ceded under the 1853 Gadsden Purchase.

We found mustard gas, several war heads, and some other chemical weapons, all of which are classified as WMDs, however, the main stream media chose not to run this story and only a few outlets reported it. Why is this?

I asked the question "Reaction to Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki's plan for national reconciliation?" 7 hours ago and received no answer. Is there no one out there who is smart enough or cares enough to try to answer? Oh wait, Saturday night must be Slacker night. By definition Slackers are stupid. Never mind.

Mexico in paricular has a vast amount of farm lands and cheap labor jobs, matched by a lower cost of living. Mexicans just come here not to survive...like the criminal advocates are saying...but more to live a lavished life. Come here LEGALLY and I wont see a problem with that. If your here legally its because America needs you.

My friend and I were trying to get cheap theater tickets today, and after losing a couple $25 lotteries, we decided to try for standing-room, thinking it would be a great deal for my friend since she uses a wheelchair to get around and therefore wouldn't have to stand. Well, one theater was willing to let her pull up behind an ailse so long as we didn't tell the Fire Department, but another one told her she couldn't do standing room because it was fire hazard to block the aisles. Since standing room tickets are the cheapest tickets they offer, they're effectively requiring handicap people to pay more than non-handicap people. Isn't that considered discrimination?

i am wondering how many people actually think they could do a better job the bush, i personally feel that everyone beats on him but they don't really understand how hard it would be to run a country full of arrogant self-centered people plus dealing with countries that are trying to take over this "free" country and take all of our freedom away.

Suppose also that you are offering to register people because you want to make a positive difference in the world, and you have no problem registering people who are Democrat or Republican or Green Party or Independent...but the Nazi flag on the wall strikes fear into your stomach.

Your grandparents died in a concentration camp; this man wasn't responsible but people that share his values were. Yet, you want a country in which everyone participates in the political process and you believe in equality/not discriminating.

What do you do?

This is a dilemma my mother was once faced with, and she has often asked me how I would deal with such a situation.

I think I know how I would react, but I'd love to hear how other people feel about it, as it deals with such complex issues like free speech, the desire to have active voters, party politics, racism/sexism/homophobia, etc.
