After paying careful attention to the messages of White Nationalism and American Neoconservative rhetoric, I believe that PRO LIFE stance in America is simply a front to basically tell White Americans:
"stop getting Abortion cause our numbers are dwindling".
America recently reached 300,000 million [citizens estimated] but the simple fact is the birthrate of White America has been decreasing due to a number of causes.
#1 White women on Career tracks who wait to have families,
#2 Poor economic policies which cause the situations for women in answer #1 and...
#3 The desire for material wealth over family.
White america is not keeping up with the birthrates of immigrant families to the united states or non-whites already living in America.
Interestingly enough, the same White americans who are "pro-life" are pro war (Iraq and Afghanistan) and remained so until Bush fumbled it and America woke up and realized it was losing the battle against the insurgency & taliban

The liberals, when ever something is said that they deem as racist, cry "Hate speech!". But when they get questioned for the stupid things they say, such as, "Bush is a nazi," they say they have freedom of speech. Isn't that a bit hypocritical?

We’re living in a time of senseless terrorism. Terrorists attacked America like the Japanese at Pearl Harbor…twice, and unprovoked each time. And America’s looking for a scapegoat to blame for not finding a quick solution to combating the existence of these failed human beings, who call themselves terrorists... Failed human beings who not only have a flagrant disregard for the life of innocent women and children in their own country, but for their own life as well.

If you can't read don't complain how long it is.
Drug smuggler Osbaldo Aldrete-Davila was shot in the buttocks as he ran away from two border patrol agents near the Rio Grande River in February 2005.
Department of Homeland Security officials told congressional leaders last month that two Border Patrol agents convicted of shooting a drug smuggler admitted to supervisors that they were "out to shoot Mexicans" the day of the shooting, but have yet to provide proof the agents made such statements.
In an effort to convince four concerned congressman that the trial, conviction and sentencing of El Paso, Texas, Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean were warranted, representatives of Homeland Security's Office of Inspector General met privately with the congressmen to assure them of Ramos and Compean's guilt.
The agents were convicted earlier this year of shooting admitted drug smuggler Osbaldo Aldrete-Davila in the buttocks as he ran away from them near the Rio Grande River in February 2005. Ramos and Compean were sentenced last week to 11 and 12 years, respectively, in prison.
Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas, one of the congressmen at the private meeting, said he and three of his House colleagues were told by the OIG's office that the agents "were out to shoot Mexicans," and that Homeland Security had other damning information about Ramos and Compean's actions the day Aldrete-Davila was wounded.
Poe and fellow Texas Republicans John Culberson, Kenny Marchant and Michael McCaul met with the OIG officials Sept. 26 in Texas.
Those officials, however, did not provide proof of the agents' supposed confession. Instead, they said they would provide the information after last week's sentencing hearing, according to the congressmen.
Two of the congressmen, along with National Border Patrol Council President TJ Bonner and Andy Ramirez, chairman of the Chino-based Friends of the Border Patrol, now are demanding that the OIG immediately provide the evidence it promised. Both organizations have publicly supported Ramos and Compean.
Officials at the Office of Inspector General did not return phone calls for comment.
"They will provide us the information we requested. They will either provide it informally, or they will be doing it formally," Poe said.
Jack Hirschfield, a spokesman for McCaul, said the congressman's office also has asked for the OIG information.
"Congressman McCaul is interested in following the ongoing issues involved in this case," Hirschfield said.
Poe said it is unclear what type of evidence the OIG will provide against the agents, and wonders why it wasn't used in their trial.
Bonner said the OIG's claims are an effort to detour Congress from holding hearings on the agents' case in November.
"These outrageous fabrications were clearly intended to derail the congressional investigation into the circumstances underlying the prosecution of two innocent Border Patrol agents," Bonner said.
Texas U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton, whose office successfully prosecuted Ramos and Compean, said at a press conference after last week's sentencing that the pair shot an unarmed suspect.
"Being a United States Border Patrol agent is not a license to shoot people," Sutton told reporters. "It is especially not a license to shoot unarmed ... suspects who are running away from you. ... It is not a license to write a report and turn it in which leaves out the fact that you shot an unarmed suspect who was running away from you."
But an Office of Inspector General memorandum obtained by the Daily Bulletin Tuesday contradicts Sutton's claim that Ramos and Compean reported Aldrete-Davila was unarmed.
The memorandum of activity was written April 4, 2005, by Christopher Sanchez, the OIG investigator who questioned Compean about the Feb. 17, 2005, shooting. Sanchez was the same agent who went to Mexico to interview Aldrete-Davila, according to documents obtained by the newspaper. Sanchez brought the smuggler back under protective custody to the United States, where he was given medical care and was granted immunity by the Texas U.S. Attorney's office to testify against the agents.
Sutton could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
The six-page memo includes Compean describing what happened after Aldrete-Davila wrestled with the agent and threw dirt in his eyes.
"Compean said that Aldrete-Davila continued to look back over his shoulder towards Compean as Aldrete-Davila ran away from him," the memo reads. "Compean said that he began to shoot at Aldrete-Davila because of the shiny object he thought he saw in Aldrete-Davila's hand and because Aldrete-Davila continued to look back towards his direction. Compean explained that he thought the shiny object might be a gun and that Aldrete-Davila was going to shoot at him because he kept looking back at him."
Assistant U.S. Attorney Debra(cq with official web site) Kanof told the Daily Bulletin in August that the agents never told anyone the smuggler was carrying a gun. Kanof also could not be reached for comment on the incident report.
Two of Aldrete-Davila's family members, interviewed by the Daily Bulletin in El Paso last week, said Aldrete-Davila has been smuggling drugs since he was 14 and "wouldn't move drugs unless he had a gun on him," said one.
The family member, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of reprisal, added that Aldrete-Davila has "been bragging about the money he's going to get in a lawsuit every time we talk to him - but now he's nervous."
Aldrete-Davila is suing the U.S. Border Patrol for $5 million for violating his civil rights.
Meanwhile, the families of both agents are still trying to understand why the government would tell congressional representatives Ramos and Compean wanted to "shoot Mexicans."
"If anybody knew our family, they would know that most of our family still lives in Mexico," said Claudia Martinez, Compean's sister. "We are of Mexican heritage. Ramos is the same. Why would they ever say such a thing?"

After doing some checking around, I found that the UNDEREPORTED DEATH TOLL IN IRAQ of Iraqi civilians - according to the John Hopskins survey and a report by USA TODAY, claims that at least 600,000 Iraqi CIVILIANS (not military) have been killed by the IRaq War (2003 - onwards).
http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/iraq/...
This number is an estimate, however, John Hopskins places this number at 655,000 and there is belief that number is lower than the actual figure.
It has also been reported by the Army Intelligence in Iraq that 1.5 million people (at least) have FLED Iraq (i.e. refugeed) to neighboring countries to escape the violence.
There is also date indicating that at least 100,000 people are now homeless in Iraq.
This is on top of the Army data shown in the recently released N.I. E (national intelligence estimate) which (though several months old) claims there truly is an attack on American troops every 15 minute

Over a year and a half ago, I went to My OBGYN to see why I wasn't getting pregnant. I knew there was a problem, but he kept saying "Oh, i see no problem with you getting pregnant. I don't want to do any tests yet, because you are so young?" That went on for over a year and half. I tried to go to another doctor, but the town I live in has only a handful of doctors and none of them were taking new patients. So after that, he finally did a test.. the laparoscopy. and found out that I have really bad endomitriosis. And was getting worse.. he fixed it. but said that it would be really hard to get pregnant now. Would i have a case against him? all the money I spent going to see him, and him doing nothing. all the pain he caused me in not believing me...?? HELP.

Why don't we just poll from the american people instead?
With the electoral college, many american votes do not count in my opinion. The electors votes are what counts. Evidence of this is the 2000 elections where Al gore won the votes of majority of the americans yet because Bush won the electoral votes. He was appointed as our fearless leader. I believe that the electoral college should be taken out becauee it wastes time and many. we have to poll the american people any way in both cases. We might as well do it directly,
