For those of you in a writing mood, here's a good address you might like. Send it to all your friends and let him know what you think of his wonderful visits to our country, as he is suddenly so concerned about "taking care" of his people. What a shame he had no interest in taking care of them while they were in Mexico!

President Vicente Fox
Office of the President

Ya know.. last night when I was asleep.. (yes I finally slept!!)

Anyway, I was feeling criminal last night...

That is because I thought I had really lived my dream.. But anyway, I thought I had literally assasinated Bush... and shot off illegals during their Labor Day march...

--In a way I wish that really happened. But, all in all, I'm thankful it was just a dream...

Am I nuts.. or are there others that have dreams like me?

Aside from the pro-illegals, I don't care about you guys.. Why should I?

You're illegal, you can kiss my toe on the way back to "Ireland" <----- The 3% of illegals homeland...

*Whines!!! MEXICAN'S AREN'T THE ONLY ILLEGALS!!! WHHHAAA!!! BOO HOO!!*

CNN is really starting to scare me.

They have been running a lot of specials recently that make it seem to me like they are trying to brainwash Americans into supporting action against North Korea, Lebanon, Iran, etc. I support America first and foremost, let's get that out of the way, but what's up with the CONVENIENT specials about the Marine barracks bombing in Beirut, political oppression in North Korea, etc.? I won't even talk about Fox News and their little hints about Syria and Iran. The news reported on the Iranian president's letter and made him look like a madman, then I read it online myself and found it quite rational and diplomatic.

What's up with this bull? What, America isn't guilty of violating certain rights granted in the constitution and Bill of Rights? What about poverty in America, the richest country in the world?

I will be honest, I am afraid of America more than I am any desert sandtrap a gazillion miles away from me.

I find it somewhat disgusting how the UN is turning a blind eye to all the harmful things that Israel is doing in the Middle East. It is already bad enough that Israel is in foreign land, but must they attack every single Islam country in Asia? Before WWII, Israel didn't even belong to the Jews, the UN just gave it to them because they felt bad about the Jews hardships in Germany and the Jews were crying for a state of their own. thus, the Arab and Jewish conflict began. How can they just drop a group of people who probably wouldn't have gotten along with Muslims in the first place? Europe has already proven to the world that they are terrible at dealing with cutting up land and calling it a country. Look at the mess that Africa is in, and all of it is because Europe forged a group of people into one little land and called it say, Nigeria. They can not do that, these people were in tribes and they had enemies. How can you force enemies into one country and expect them to get along?

I'm an American living in Canada, I can't get over how much nastier politics has gotten in the US in last 6 or 7 years. Want proof? Ask a question on YA that is even remotely involved with politcs and sit back and watch the attack dogs from both sides pummel each other. Do people really think fighting like spoiled toddlers is going to win their side any points.... Calm and rational debate leading to comprise is what the governing system in the US was founded on. How did everday nobody's get so angry about issues that won't affect their day to day lives? I'm starting to believe that ignorance is better than biased half truths that people spew as knowledge today... please advise.

Recently in my Sociology class I discovered that women receive .76 to every dollar men receive. This is astonishing to me that the legislation was passed for equal pay 40+ years ago and things are still unequal.

One more question....Could you honestly look your mother, grandmother, aunt, sister, significant other in the eye and tell them they are only worth75% to you and the world?

I heard on the news the other day, and I'm not sure if it is nation wide, but in order to prosecute someone for attempted child molestation over the internet, email isn't valid enough. An explicate picture, pornography, has to be sent as well. No matter how graphic the email is, it isn't enough to bring a pedophile up on charges. And to really dig into this, the law was changed because an attorney was caught sending verbally explicate emails to a minor and appealed over and over.

....Okay.. they say this isn't a racial issue..

And it's not.. But when people specify illegals, they are speaking to those-- who just by "coinsedence" are of hispanic origin or descent..

...hmm, I wonder why that is?

..Yes, illegals aren't just made up of Mexican's...

however, according to the federal resources, roughly 92% of the illegals are of Mexican nationality.

So...ya, not all are Mexican's, but.. ya... 8% ???

Get real...

92% is a lot of Mexican Mo Fo's... What is that nearly 1/2 of Mexico?

Mexico is only 108 million strong. Since I'm gonna go with my statistics (having worked hand in hand with the government and their downsizing figures), that means there is really 60 mil. illegals.. 92% of 60 mil. is 54 mil.

That's that would conclude that literally 50% or 1/2 of the Mexican populace is currently in the country!

Which makes sense, if they are taking over.. Send 1/2, while the other stays here to protect the country...

What do you think?

My family and I are going to travel to my home country, the Philippines in 3 days and I've just received a letter from the INS stating that my application for removal of condition of status has been approved and that I should go to have my green card renewed. We will still have time to apply for renewal but what worries me is that now I am gonna have to travel outside the US without my actual green card. I've read forums about this saying that I will have my passport stamped that will show that my renewal of green card is under processing but I also saw that there were Filipinos that were denied to board their planes to go back to the US because they don't have an actual green card to show. Has anyone here actually traveled under the same circumstances? This really worries me so I was wondering if there are others out there who have experienced traveling while their green cards are under processing who can share me their experiences. Thanks in advance.

What's the real sentiment in that nation towards the Americans? Afghanistan?

I think about how Americans are back home, and I shudder to think of their attitude towards the Iraqis. The people of this country are the last ones who should ever go nation-building. Americans love to alienate people and think they're always right. They are professional backstabbers who lie and cheat to one-up you at every chance. Whenever they get a little bit of money or success, they immediately start becoming divisive, calling people losers or bums with no ambition, instead of being gracious and happy. They have a big problem respecting and listening to people.

In short, Americans live to be miserable. Why the hell would any other country want them running their affairs? I was born and lived overseas, and have been to other countries like Australia and Canada, and many people want nothing to do with the US. Hearts and minds...our attitude isn't winning them.

Apparently Hezbollah fired more than a dozen rockets into Israel this morning and only 5 people got slightly injured.

how does Israel (spit, bastards) respond - murdering 22 children and babies and more than 40 adults who were trapped in a building in a small town. I have seen Young girls sighning Israeli Bombs and shells before they are fired off to kill innocent Lebonese people.

From www.fairus.org
FAIR estimates the current local annual costs of illegal immigration from just three program areas — educating the children in public primary and secondary schools, providing medical services in emergency rooms, and incarceration — amount to about $36 billion. If the population of foreign low wage workers is allowed to increase as a result of not effectively denying new illegal immigrants access American jobs, current illegal immigrants are allowed to stay and bring their relatives to join them, and additional low wage workers are allowed into the country in a new guest worker program the costs to local communities will increase. Our estimate is that the annual fiscal costs in 2010 would increase by nearly 70 percent to $61.5 billion for just these same three program areas. The amount would swell by an additional nearly 73 percent to $106.3 billion by 2020.
