A news article I found talks about how New York City is considering a ban on the use of trans fat by restaurants in the city. Shouldn't diet be a personal concern? Isn't it dangerous to allow the government too much control with what we can or can't do to our bodies?

And why?

Only one of the three. I think people will tend to want to say lead and serve, but they are mutually exclusive. A leader directs the path of the country, while a servant enforces the will of the people.

Honest opinions, please, and no name-calling or slander.

If illegals come here knowing they are wrong, why does the gov. think that they will suddenly stop and think.... "Hey, they have laws here, maybe I should follow them. Oh nevermind, I got away with being here in the first place, so apparently I don't have to do anything the US laws say."
(only they would be thinking that in spanish, since they won't learn english)

I mean DAMN, All I read is "Beaners, Border-Hoppers, Dirty Mexicans" and other Racist comments against hispanics. Im getting tired and frankly annoyed at all this senseless racism. Every single person who says anything racist, knows NOTHING about the people they are talking about. And they wonder why most of the world hates Americans. Not saying every single American acts like this, its just that the few mess up the image for all of you. Tell me WHAT exactly Hispanics have done AGAINST you SPECIFICALLY? I mean damn. You say "they steal money from honest tax payers.." have you not realized that most of them pay taxes to? Its called a TAXPAYER ID! You get no benefits, but you still pay taxes. Kinda Stupid huh? And the whole Breaking American Law thing...C'mon (asking this question after reading all the ractist things you have to say is redudent), Have you no HEART? No one is telling u to give them money or anything. Just give them a chance to make their lives BETTER! damn....

It's funny how when you are young and all you hear about how great this country is until you begin thinking on your own and see how they obviously are more interested in killing other people and their own rather than looking into more "kind" endeavors. I have given up on this country in that regard, but I have heard that Canada has made great strides despite strong criticism from the US. I have about 50 years give or take to live and would like to not have to travel to Amsterdam to enjoy the finer things in life. It was so pleasant to puff on a spliff while watching out a coffee shot window as the children and other members of society peacefully went about their business.

My fellow Republicans...

The RNC is working on a new housing plan for the poor and elderly in this great nation. No more section 8 vouchers, no more gov't subsidizing!

Instead the RNC envisions entire communities created and planned just for the poor and elderly!

The RNC will help provide sheet metal, tin, 1/4" plywood, and have the residents build their own homes! They communities will be built along clean rivers and streams to provide water! Ample trees in the forest will provide a energy source for heating and cooking. Each home will cost $300, instead of the 2.6 billion we spend to help house people annually.

We will name these communities after Herbert Hoover, that lead America through times of great prosperity!

MY fellow Republicans.......Will you support the new RNC plan for housing?

Didn't everyone else's ancesters have to be de-loused, vaccinated before entering the country. Illegals are just coming in when they want with no rules about this. (like they would follow them anyway.) Why is the government not concerned about this issue?

Living or you could go back in time and talk to one that has passed. What you you say.

I would choose Ronald Regan. I would tell him that he was a good man. It was a wonderful thing that he helped get the Berlin Wall torn down.

He had a consistent level of leadership and was open to all people

Like 1. Rules on passengers in vehicles. You know a car does not hold 10 people legally.
2. Rules on leases. You know there are not 15 people listed on the lease for that one home. If you are a regular citizen, all people in the home have to be on the lease and they have to also follow
rules on living conditions. You know that 4-5 families are not allowed to live in one three bedroom house. If you are white or black, that would be reported.
4. They have DMV tests in Spanish? Well then how are they going to read the road signs or know how to get where they are going?
