I'm just taking an informal survey of how many Yahoo! Answers users are liberal or conservative. I am not using these answers for any reason, it's just curiosity. No need for name-calling, put-downs, or meanness, just one out of three possible answers:

A] Liberal
B] Moderate
C] Conservative.

Thanks!

if not, then why do we demand for others to do so much work to enter the united states legaly?

i'm not saying thats wrong, but it is wrong to expect so much from people when all most of us had to do was just plop out of our mothers on U.S. soil

we got lucky. we are lucky to be here. so why should we do no work and demand so hard and so fierce that others do things "the right way" to get in lagally

did you know people that get in legally have to take a series of long, hard tests on america to get in?

the teacher made my whole class take a citizenship test in my class at school for fun and i was stunned that most of the people in mmy class didn't know half the test!

do you see where i'm going with this? if you don't then don't bother answering because all i will get is trash.

because at the same time only Christian organizations are receiving funds from Bush's Faith-Based Initiative programs?

Asking this again to list the source and explain the question.

- This is an actual question. Ppl last time, weren't sure. I am serious. How do we justify criticizing other nations while discriminating with religious funds? Is this not hypocrisy?

- Source is Frontline. I saw this while going through a few of their shows but honestly can not remember exactly which one it was stated it. Anyone is more than welcome to go through them because it is in there. If you find it, please email me. Otherwise, I'll find it later this week when I have time and edit add it to the details. I'm thinking it was in the one called The Architect.

OK here is the deal the waiver is for a criminal check. Im in touch w/his recruiter so I know whats going on. He keeps putting me off as well. I've called 3x 2day and eachtime he said.. Now is not good for me. His recruiter promised he get in like last month. Thats just an update 4 u guys.
My Fiance is trying to get into the ARMY and his recruiter keeps giving him the run around. He took his ASVAB the real one and scored 73 took the Physical and passed. He did that this month and started trying to get in in the early part of May end of April. His recruiter said he needed a waiver and sent in for one in the begining of June he still says he hasnt gotten it all cleared yet even though my Fiance had a meeting with his reruiter's commander. What can we do this will be really good for him. Plus it shows me that he cares about something and wants to succed. I would join however I have back and ankle problems on top of my Asthma. :(.... Any suggestions? For him getting in the Army sooner?

...should the children of illegal immigrants that were born on U.S. soil be deprted?

think about this. the onlt reason people do not like illegal immigrants is because they did not enter the united states "the right way".

anyone born in the united states has entered "the right way". so why deport them?

they got in just as many of you probably did. we were born here. so why are they any different? because their parents are criminals?

well what about the other american criminals who have kids? i don't see anyone deporting them or throwing them in prison cells.

exacly.

We want to start to try to get pregnant and i was told my company does not offer maternity leave. I had no idea that they could do that.. I was always under the impression that ALL companies must offer maternity leave for full time employees.

"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!"
Benjamin Franklin

"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude
greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us
in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down
and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon
you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
—Samuel Adams

"Law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it
violates the right of an individual." --Thomas Jefferson

"No nation however powerful, any more than an individual, can
be unjust with impunity. Sooner or later, public opinion, an
instrument merely moral in the beginning, will find occasion
physically to inflict its sentences on the unjust... The lesson
is useful to the weak as well as the strong." --Thomas Jefferson

I dunno why but i think it was all a lie. I think it was made up 2 pull attention away from the crisis in the middle east. I heard on a local news channel that president bush knew all about it before it happened and thats why they were able to stop them before anything happened.. I could be wrong but that just my opinion.. Let me know what you guys think! Thanx :-D

His points of views are abrasive, idiotic; one sided, arrogant and ignorant. He obviously has nothing better to do than attack a political party who is just as bad as any other. Get real John; Politics are dirty, left or right. Get off your high horse and tell me something I don't already know.

What a fool.

Who here agrees????

I am from a country which is being beseige by energy crises. although my country has numerous brilliant scientists and inventors who could go hand in hand in solving the current problems, the energy giants are bent on their back, to prevent such thing from happening. strangely, the leaders of my beloved country whom we put to power, are the very people initiating the killings of those brilliant inventions that can surely free us from being forced to drink and digest what big power and energy corporations shoving down our throat...
