I know you have probably seen dozens of commercials and seen several arguments against it in print lately, but I see the handprints of the oil companies all over this. The ads state the fact that Prop 87 will increase oil tax by 4 billion dollars, but neatly skip the fact that its a tax on the oil companies and not the consumers. In fact, the law will tax only the oil companies, and will make it illegal for them to pass the cost to consumers. Don't be fooled! Fight back at the oil companies who have kept us Californians on the edge with THEIR outrageous gasoline prices! This is a chance to make them pay their 4 billion. In all other states were oil companies are forced to pay tax, the gas prices are lower.

It's American business owners who are moving overseas to hire people for cheaper wages? These companies are moving to India, China, and get this, MEXICO so they will have cheaper labor. And the jobs going overseas are jobs Americans are doing right now! Not cleaning and hard labor jobs.

I haven't read one thing any Democrat says that has any intelligences to it. Just read the brainless remarks they post here. Do you really want to be part with a party that has no real answers to the problems we face today. Who is their great new leader, Hillary Clinton? Get real!!

Why is it that the people who say "Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, feed him for the rest of his life" are always the ones cutting education spending?

"WASHINGTON - U.S. spy agencies confirmed North Korea's nuclear test on Monday, even as Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice declared that U.N. sanctions prove the world is united in opposing Pyongyang's nuclear ambitions."

She will visit Japan, South Korea, China and Russia.
Why? aren't they all united? Aren't the sanctions in place?

Upon applying (self),the worker informed me that i had other people listed in my household and they were approved..I have no knowledge of the people! I was told they would be removed from the list..but the person stated they were my boyfriend and had just gotten out of PRISON so had no resources.. I want to follow up on this..and not sure how. It seems to me that this would be a case of FRAUD and the penalty should be deeper than being removed.

What the heck happened to fairness? I'd say that they should've challenged the minutemen to a debate.

Blocking their speech...wow. Raving around because they blocked their speech. Does that even accomplish anything?

Why is it that people in this country are always saying that children come first before anything, but yet if you are not legal in this country suddenly that comes before children, and anything else. Every day families are ripped apart, and parents are ripped away from their children just because they do not have legal status in this country. My daughter's father was ripped out of her life and if being taken back to Mexico...who knows if she will ever see him again. My daughter and I are both US citizens but suddenly we have no rights, and who cares if she cries for him.....he's illegal! Just the other day I heard of Immigration officers going into a factory, locking the doors, and checking social security numbers on every worker. The ones that didn't have good numbers were boarded onto 2 buses, and hauled off to Mexico. This country always says children come first, but......
