It was the first few days after it, but now it seems that the message of being strong and moving forward has been lost and the new message is " They are trying to kill you and never forget that "

By letting the USA and the world completely change post 9-11 aren't we helping the terrorists accomplish their goals?

Are you willing to put your money where your mouth is?
If we build two new WTC towers, identical to the originals,
and recreate 9/11 as closely as possible, would you be willing to be inside the buildings when the planes struck?

Western Union fights Arizona seizure warrant
The Denver Business Journal - 11:26 AM MDT Friday
Print this Article Email this Article Reprints RSS Feeds Most Viewed Most Emailed
Western Union said Friday that it hoped to delay an effort by Arizona officials to seize certain money transfers to Mexico as part of the state's investigation into illegal immigration and drug smuggling.

Western Union, which will be spun off from Greenwood Village-based First Data Corp. (NYSE: FDC) on Sept. 29, said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it was seeking a stay of a seizure warrant granted to the Arizona attorney general's office on Sept. 21.


The warrant allows authorities to seize person-to-person money transfers originating in Arizona and 28 other states that are intended for recipients in 26 locations in the Mexican state of Sonora. It would require Western Union to pay the funds into a designated detention account instead of transferring them to the intended recipients.

Western Union on Wednesday asked a federal court to issue a temporary restraining order against the seizure plan.

"Although the issuance of the warrant, whether or not sustained, may adversely affect the volume of money transfers, Western Union does not believe the ultimate impact on the company will be material," the company said in a statement.

First Data stock has faced a headwind in recent months, as the national political debate over illegal immigration has hurt its Western Union money transfer business. First Data's chief executive officer, Ric Duques, told analysts in July that money-transfer business was down in the second quarter of the year as Mexican immigrants became reluctant to wire money home for fear of attracting the attention of authorities, or because they wanted to hold onto cash in case they were arrested.

I am going to go to france (legally) as me with a passport and everything, but i thought i would come back in the guise as an illegal immigrant (i.e in the back of a big van, and get caught on purpose) but i don't know which nationality to come back as?
I am white so I thought i could get away with pretending to be polish but they can work i the u.k legally, so I was wondering which nationality i should pretend to be so that i get put in a detention centre etc etc. My aim is to get a british passport and national insurence number card etc basically a second identity, then write a book on the whole experience>

This year is not a Presidential election year, but all the House members and 1/3 of the Senator are running. I've heard the Dem. may win the control of the House, but probably not the Senate. If the Rep keep the Senate, Why should Pres. Bush care if the Dem. win the House?

What will liberals do when they can no longer use abortion as a form of birth control? Will they finally take accountability for their actions????

And for you morons that question Fox News as a source, you might notice that its an ASSOCIATED PRESS article. Only Fox was fair enough to report what the liberals wrote.

Bush planned the 9/11 attacks, these buildings were designed to withstand airplane impacts so it must be Bush who made them crash.

Democratic (politicians) are now "republicans"-- they are all the same....and it's obvious that REpublican voters are hopeless.

Please vote third party and vote to give your country back to the rightful hands of the people.

He likes Americans!

And like a lot of the world...he just doesn't like Bush. Get over it!

He said Bush wouldn't of been President if it wasn't for his Daddy. That is a true statement.

Chavez is just a loud mouth wanting to get attention. He apparently has yours!

I have no personal issues with Chavez, nor Citgo. Nor should you!

You agree?

I can't figure any other reason for so many people to be standing behind him, after all he has blatenly done! Of course stupidity comes to mind, but I've found most Bush supporters are college educated, intelligent people. Why are they still supporting a crooked President who should be impeached? WAKE UP BUSH LOVERS!

The twin towers were built to withstand the impact of airliners, that means the planes couldn’t be the cause of the collapse. Human engineering is too perfect!
Who would believe for example if we built an “unsinkable” ship and it sank? Or build a space craft designed to travel through earths atmosphere and then it disintegrates upon reentry. Come on people how gullible are you???

I read some of you saying that global warming doesn't exist that it's a cyclical change in the temperature of the planet from the last ice age. But don't you also believe that earth, created by God, is only 6,000 years old? The last ice age occurred > 10,000 years ago.

Does, anyone think, that the President of Venezuela Hugo Chavez, went to far, and over did it when he call President Bush the devil in front of world leaders at the UN general assembly and that the podium still smells of sulfur and then saying inside a church in front of a bunch of people that he was an alcoholic and a sick man.

Bush and his pro-war supporters say the answer to defeating terrorism is to murder every last terrorist so there are no more on the face of the planet. My question: If we actually did kill off every last terrorist would we never again have to deal with terrorism? It's an important question because this "logic" is at the center of the pro-war strategy. Just imagine bin Laden and every last terrorist is now dead. Will this condition mean we are finally safe from the harm of terrorism in the future?

*Please, if you like leaving sarcastic anti-liberal answers, go on to disrespect another question.
