If you believe this, then explain how Affirmative Action policies work, and give clear examples as to how they discriminate against White Americans. From what I understand, the policies were intended to correct past injustices against minority participation. If this isn't so, please explain. Intelligent and objective answers only! Let's learn something here...

I would say I agree with about 70-75% of the Republican platform. But on some issues, (Gay Rights and legalized Marijuana, for example), I disagree with them 100%. Would I technically be an Independant, or just a moderate conservative?

The first landing on the moon might have been a hoax. Many have questioned for years. People have questioned about how the video of the first landing on the moon, stars were absent, the astronauts motion were slowed down by editing, and how the powerful blast from departure left no mark on the moon, and those are just some of the theories. Answer.

March on, worker bees! Know your enemy!
We take our orders given by the queen
We're not the killers, we're the worker bees
If you resist us you will feel our sting
Surrender now before the swarm sets in.

A pollination coming from the west,
And in a flash we will invade your nest
Supply of honey flowing bottomless
Play by our rules or you'll be powerless.

I know not all of them hate us (like the british for example) but many in Europe seem to hate the USA no matter what.

HYPOTHETICALLY
I own a business. You work for me. I can pay someone else to do your job. I can pay that person the same I pay you and yet save a bunch.
Well, I do not pay into workers comp for this guy. I don't pay into unemployment nor do I need to pay FICA or taxes, So I can give him the same take home as you.
After all that is said and done, I saved a bundle.
Oh, you can always find another job, with equal pay, can't you?
You would not begrudge this guy a job, would you?
You would not begrudge me saving $, would you?
Good, Glad to hear it!
All of this is made possible by your friendly neighborhood illegal alien.
I am glad you didn't report him! HE s very glad!
Thanks to your liberal stance and posturing and protesting for illegals, YOU should be glad, too!
ALL HE wants is a better life! It does not matter that it is your life, does it?

Of course none of these questions are aimed toward those who want law breakers punished, so, if you fall into that group, abstain from answering

I have also offered to meet at a police station for visitation and he has refused. The last time he took them he called me after he picked them up and told me he was never bringing them back and if I wanted them I would have to come get them. I did and took a police officer with me. Nothing was done about it because he moved to Cali right after it happened. We go to court on Wed. becasue it has been 11 months and he still refuses to sign the divorce papers and I just want to be as prepared as I can because even though he is $3000 behind in child support somehow he can afford a lawyer and I can't.

Seriously, post after post of people reading propaganda about Israel.

palestinians do not want peace, they kill time after time. They kidnapped a soldier and they get everything they deserve. It is amazing how some people turn a blind eye to when palestinians kill innocent Israel citizens but when Israel mistakenly kills a family picnic'ing then the world is outraged.
I hope Israel destroy the Hamas government, it doens't deserve to be on this earth.
