Is it just to be a lightning rod for criticism? People on both sides, republican and democrat, have called for his resignation. Military generals as well.

It baffles me.

A local group fighting for immigrant rights is calling for a boycott of two nationally known companies. Dunkin Donuts and Applebee's are accused of discriminating against immigrant workers whose names don't match their social security numbers.

This is sad.Follow the law and be boycotted. I would be willing to bet that it is the liberals complaining.

What's about this whole insult called 'liberal'? Surely it's good to be a liberal because they believe in freedoms, liberties, democracy etc the most..

And what's the problem with a 'liberal media'? Isn't that about independant media sources, rather than state-sponsered news? Or is that a bit old-fashioned for America I wonder..

to the point of trying to kill you, kidnap you and bomb you...

whereas only Americans hate us Mexicans?

The only time I've seen a burning Mexican flag was last May. American flags are burn so often they already amount to a % of the Ozone Layer Hole.

And don't say it's because you're great, cause they hate you even in those places where the way of life is far higher than in the US (germany, Switzerland, France)

This plan should be a sensible one to both sides:

1. U.S. citizens do not hate Mexicans, we just feel that a massive influx of illegal Mexicans (65% of all illegals by some estimates) needs to come down to a trickle.
2. A border fence is the only sensible way to slow down illegal entry. Of course a border fence will not be 100% effective, but if we can slow down the rate of illegals from 1 million a year down to only 175,000 a year that's alot of progress.
3. The high rate of illegal Mexicans combined with a high rate of birth by those same Mexicans is putting tremendous strain on our schools and social services and as a result their remittances back to mexico should be taxed since they do not pay FEDERAL INCOME TAX.
4. ESOL class should only be for one year. There is no reason why it should take a child longer than one year to learn functional english. "English First" should be a national policy when it comes to education.

All we hear is the bad news. People think everyone is bad, and people are so suspicious of everyone's actions. Even if someone does something good for others, people will still think that the person would have alternative motives. What do you think about that?

This is the start and part of the process to get americans accepting the division of Iraq into three Sub states or regions .
I am sure we will maintain controll of the oil fields and routes of trade when we divide Iraq .I wonder how many of you care about the manipulation of the people in america by the press and government in an effort for the government to do as it pleases .

Charleston(S.C) City Councilman Larry Shirley says society has gone awry, and it's time to start a "dialogue."

"What we've got is a failure in society, whether it's in Mount Pleasant with yuppie parents or whether it's on the East Side with poor crackhead parents," Shirley said Friday. "We pick up stray animals and spay them. These mothers need to be spayed if they can't take care of theirs. ... Once they have a child and it's running the streets, to let them continue to have children is totally unacceptable." Deadbeat dads might ought to be sterilized as well, he said.

State Sen. Robert Ford, D-Charleston, says Shirley is correct, that this is a societal problem.
