So Is it easier said -than done?

Why is okay for pro-illegals to generalize American people, but those same people will call you on generalizing Mexican people, or illegals in general.
Has anyone noticed this?
I am always seeing people saying Americans are racist, don't work hard, etc. Doesn't anyone realize this hypocrisy?

BTW- I am in no way condoning the generalization of Mexican people. I just think it needs to go both ways.

Okay, this is the part where you call me a smart@$$ gringo S.O.B., then tell me all the nasty things you're going to do to my wife, and how much she's going to enjoy it. After that, you can tell me how you're going to rip off my head and *excrete* down my neck. You all know the drill.

Here's a chance to try to laugh a little:

It was the first day of school and a new student named Pedro Martinez, the son of a Mexican restaurateur, entered the fourth grade.
The teacher said, "Let's begin by reviewing some American history. "Who said 'Give me Liberty, or give me Death?' "
She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Pedro, who had his hand up.
"Patrick Henry, 1775."
"Very good!" apprised the teacher. "Now, who said, "Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth?"

Again, no response, except from Pedro: "Abraham Lincoln, 1863."
The teacher snapped at the class, "Class, you should be ashamed! Pedro, who is new to our country, knows more about its history than you do!"
She heard a loud whisper: "Screw the Mexicans!"
"Who said that?" she demanded.
Pedro put his hand up. "Jim Bowie, 1836."
At that point, a student in the back said, "I'm gonna puke."
The teacher glared and asked, "All right! Now, who said that?"

hahaha... I guess there was just a huge surge in demand today? Many of them have clearly stated on here that people who are world leaders like, say Bush or Olmert, have no impact on oil prices, so it can't have anything to do with the current conflict that leaders of Israel and Hamas started.. .since leaders have no impact...

What information is given to an employer who performs a criminal background check on an employee?
I have a felony on my record from 15 years ago. Will that information be given to the employer?
I know on applications it asks about felonies within the last 7 years. So does the employer receive only 7 years of information? And why is it limited to 7 years? Is their a law requiring a 7 year limit?

I realize that I should never have committed a felony in the first place but I do take responsibility for what I did. It has been a long time since I got into trouble. And I have not gotten into trouble since. But I am curious about how this is going to effect me in looking for a job.

I refer specifically to use of the internet - do the security services monitor both questions and answers on 'Yahoo answers', and do our questions and answers make it more likely we will get the 'knock on the door' at some-time.
I have some very radical questions to ask and views to express but I am reluctant to do so.

I just observed a scandalous scene inside a government public facility where a lady just stormed in & started yelling "who owns a Jack Russell terrier inside a car outside?!!!" it was 110 degrees that day but with windows rolled down & I later found out the dog has a bowl of water in it & the people who owns it were just doing a quick chore in that govt facility, b4 going to the beach. The lady added hysterically & shouted: "did u know that w/in (?) mins they can die? Dog killer! (or murderer!) I will take your dog if ur not going to leave now & take her home! I will call Humane Society!" She kept going on & on until 1 of the owner said: "Mind your own business or I will sue you for libel & slander. We just arrived and my wife will go back to the car after she helps me with (whatever they were doing there, i did not hear)". When I left the place, she was still going on & the man's # was called and he was just quiet while the wife went to the car/dog. What is ur opinion on this?

Now that we know (since Novak has gone public with his story) no crime was committed in the Valarie Plame case. Has anyone changed their mind about what happend? or are you sticking to the false acusations that the President and Vice President outed her name and committed a crime in releasing a covert op's name?

Is Bush The Lifetime President?

Paul Joseph Watson/Prison Planet.com | February 11 2006

Those confident in the fact that President Bush will leave office in January 2009 after his second term ends would be wary to check out images posted on the Huffington Post website.

During a National Guard ceremony gala on Thursday night, Bush was presented with a life-size marble pedestal of his own head and shoulders.

Look closely at the inscription on the statue reads 2001-BLANK, indicating that the date when Bush will leave office isn't yet known, despite the fact that the 22nd Amendment to the US Constitution only allows incumbents to occupy the office of President for a maximum of two terms.



Spooky? A move is afoot to abolish the 22nd Amendment and allow for a dictator to monopolize the reigns of power for life, in the form of a House bill introduced last June.

The bill would repeal limitations on a President holding office for a maximum of two terms.

An even darker scenario, Arnold Schwarzenegger is elected as President in 2008 and shortly after the 22nd amendment is abolished, making the Hitler admirer our permanent Fuehrer.

This is the modern day version of the Enabling Act, which allowed Hitler to officially declare himself dictator.

The bill can be found at the Library of Congress website here

I think its all a big scheme to take control of the U.S. and illegals are the pawns for a much bigger cause. I don't hate illegals but I am very pissed of at anyone who hires, houses, or transports illegals. So if I take action against my own race you invaders can't scream racist!
