I have heard some say that this program should just be ended, but isn't the better solution to just get dirty old men out of Congress? What do *you* think??

Was there a political agenda to his assassination?
Did Lee Harvey Oswald kill John Kennedy by himself, or did a conspiracy do it?

First graph says, "top 5 percent" of wage earners pay 53.25% of the taxes. He uses the misleading "top 5 percent" and pretends it means people who earned 5% of the money are paying 53.25% of the taxes. The funny part: watch the income curve of the three graphs. The first has the top 5% paying 53% of the taxes because they earn about that percent of the money, which he leaves out. Notice that when he goes onto the "top 10% of wage earners" and the total percent of tax paid barely changes, just to 64.89%, he is showing that it really is just a handful of millionaires at the top who make all the money - the first 5% had to pay 53% of the taxes because they made about that percent of the money, while the poor second 5% - the people who he adds to make his second chart - only change things by about 11%. As anyone knows, this is because they only make about 11% of the money. Look how fast income earned drops off: first 5% make about 50% of money, next 5% make about 10%. Brilliant lies!

It seems like no matter what you're for and against, there's always someone telling you how WRONG your OPINIONS are.

The signs are going to say "Your Daughters Are Burning In Hell." Liberals disgust me everyday! Why do they do this! They have even protested at military soldiers' funerals with signs that say "Thank God Soldiers Are Dead."

I have one thing to say, F*#+ Them!!!

Is this a sign of the times? Are more crack downs to come?
CINCINNATI — Three people and the temporary labor companies they ran in Ohio and Tennessee pleaded guilty to using more than 1,000 illegal aliens to sort air freight over several years.

Maximino Garcia, owner of Garcia Labor Company of Ohio Inc. and Garcia Labor Company Inc. of Morristown, Tenn., also agreed Tuesday to forfeit $12 million in proceeds from his businesses.

Garcia and his sister, Dominga McCarroll, former vice president of the two companies, both pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge in U.S. District Court. Gina Luciano, director of human relations for Garcia Labor in Tennessee, also pleaded guilty to the charge.

All had been named in a July indictment alleging they encouraged and enabled illegal aliens — most from Mexico — to work at the ABX Air Inc. hub in Wilmington, about 40 miles northeast of Cincinnati.

No date was set for sentencing. Each could be sentenced to 10 years in prison and fined $250,000.

A woman who answered the telephone at Garcia's Tennessee office said she had no instructions on how to refer a call for comment from the company.

Can any of you folks who piss and moan about uninvited people in your country tell me who invited you to Vietnam, Nigaragua, El Salvador, Mexico, Iraq, Cuba, Diego Garcia, North Korea, Afghanistan etc..? In the case of Vietnam you were invited by oppressive regimes. Where's your "democracy" now?

I found this article that asserts that there are some 200,000 Americans are living illegally in Mexico, mainly in Baja California and Mexico City. Are these figures real? (http://migration.ucdavis.edu/mn/more.php?id=392_0_2_0) Why would so many Americans live in Mexico?

Karl Rove has already told some conservative insiders that there WILL be a October Surprise in order to influence the upcoming election. (see link below). Gary Hart (former Senator) believes that one possibility is an attack on Iran's nuclear program, and possibly a broader attack aimed at regime change.

I think that it will be something that hits home much harder....like actually showing Osama's dead corpse on national TV. (although maybe they'll save that for 2008).

What do YOU think the Republican October surprise will be?
Will you be influenced by it -- or have you pretty much already made up your mind, irregardless of an October Surprise by EITHER party?

Here's the link in case you think I'm making this up about Rove already stating that there will be an October Surprise:
