Politics & Government - 25 June 2006

I have heard more and more comments about Mexican illegal immigrants using a guide called a "coyote" to help them cross into the US. They say "How can an illegal afford $2000 to come into the US, yet the reason they are coming is because they are poor?" Where here is the answer. They have a friend or family member in the US wire the money to them in Mexico, they then pay the coyote and come,work, and pay the person back. Why am I telling you this? Because I am tired of hearing it! They ARE poor in most places in Mexico and live at a poverty level much worse than our own ghettos. If you went to central or south Mexico (not acapulco) and met them you would see that it IS bad, it is not uncommon for people to have no bathrooms, no running water, no cars, no food unless they grow/raise it themselves. Things are changing now that they are sending money home. So my question is: Why be so upset that immigrants are helping others, even if they are not from the US?

I as an American am out to protect my people, and the true immigrants of our country.
They must be protected from illegals trying to use them as a cover for the crimes they knowingly, willingly commit.
American Immigrants endure the process, show respect for our laws, and our people. Illegals are nothing more than bottom feeders who believe they deserve more than the legal immigrants who only leave their home nations to find work, and feed their starving family's. Illegals steal immigrants identities, and American identities to find work, not caring that they are stealing another person's Rights, and Livelihoods, and destroying that person's family. This cruelity by the illegals has forced Americans, and immigrants alike to begin to defend themselves. The pity train for illegals has left the station, and they should have been on it.

What I notice is that many American users could be mean, disrespectful but when someone disagrees with they're point of view they get mad. Why can't they respect the fact that others don't think like them. If everyone thought alike it this country would be way different. Respect others points of view. Don’t answer with stupidity. Everyone should have the chance to express themselves any way they want. If you guys would stop fighting over noncense that in the end none matters and focus on more important issuesmaybe this issue could get solved. Lets all focus on the lies we live under the rules of our government and maybe we will all be happy. its worth it, to fight about something that in the end the government will decide, the senate, congress etc.

Why dont we mass deport all illegas in America? IT is illegal FOR them t be here so why doesnt the INS round them all up and ship them back to mexico. I am sick of them invading America. They want to take away our benefits as Americans and they want something for nothing. I am sick of going out places and seeing these short mexicans all over like flies talking spanish in a country thats main language is AMERICAN/ENGLISH.

Whenever the "immigration" issue comes up at work, there is always this one guy saying "but it's not that easy to become a citizen" . Is that true? What does it really take to not be an illegal immigrant?

In selling my car I was asked for a copy of my license and to sign "Power of Attorney". Is that normal?
I have sold many cars and never been asked for a copy of my license or to sign a 'Power of Attorney' form. Does this sound normal to anyone or does it sound like some type of a scam?
Thank you!!!

Yup, they've found the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, the Democrats are aiding the terrorists, Karl Rove is back in the saddle, and now they' ve busted another "terror cell" in Miami which we can guarantee will ultimately prove to be not what it seems to be.

Canada just busted terrorists...
Speedy Gonzo just busted 7 wanna be terrorists in Miami

When are they going to raise the "terror alert" level to RED?

Since Bush and his hooligans were appointed in 2000 it seems that republicans have now decided that murder, torture, and genocide is ok as long as bush says its ok. Shouldnt we as Americans stand up to this extremist cult they call republicans and defend America from these criminals? Republicans believe it is OK to spy on americans email, telephone calls and websites visited.
Republicans seem to believe its ok to imprison American Citizens without due process and a fair trial
*Republicans believe its ok to kill 40 innocent civilians just to kill a militant.
*Republicans believe its ok to interfere with a womans body and tell her how to manage her body when Roe V Wade gave women the legal right to chose
*Republicans support making Americas Government a Right Wing Christian Government that is no different than foreign dictatorships
*Republicans seem to believe its ok to monitor Americans on camera wherever they are
Republicans basically have destroyed American liberty

I have 2 boys. Ages 2 & 3. The father was around when my first child was born & he did not help out with him at all. He has left red welts on his arms for turning off the x-box. My oldest son is know afraid to take baths after the father took him a bath. To this day he is still trying to recover. We seperated a little after my second son was born he was not around after the 3rd month. While at my sons 1st birthday party his grandmother made a comment of how easy it would be to get lost in Mexico. They visit Mexico every year. We went to court & started child support. Since Sept. of 2005, he started visiting the kids. In Oct., he stopped coming. Until April 2006, he called two or three times to say he wasnt coming. Christmas, & both birthdays we didnt hear from him. Out of the blue he shows up expecting to just take the kids. I told him out of the best interest for the kids not to because they dont know you. I dont have any info about his where abouts. He has no experience w/ kids.

Consider this: From a legal perspective, is homosexual marriage any different than sibling marriage or multiple partner marriage? If so, how? How could you create a law providing for some same sex couples to marry and not allow these other forms of marriage (the children and animal bit is easy because they can't enter into contracts -- but adult siblings could)? As a gay man, I want to support gay marriage, but I don't think it can be done legally. I think we should be striving to remove marriage as a government sanctioned agreement as it cannot be applied fairly to all constituents.

The Bush Administration is famious for shadow boxing on every corner, just in case someone really suspects the truth. So, it seems to me that Rove is too clever to show his real modivations.
I think the truth lies three or fouth turns below the words of everyday. Our only hope is that the truth is imprinted by the-boots-on-the-ground and observed, understood, photographed and typed.
