Politics & Government - 9 November 2006

I see a lot of hate against Mexicans and I know many of you just say that you only hate illegals, However just read some of these morons and you know they hate all immigrants in general , there is no way for any of you to know their legal status when you see them.
The hate expressed in this forum made me never want to be part of any group that claims to be anti-illegals. They are the weaker people in this country and shame on all of you that hates the weak and the poor. I know they are braking the law by coming here ilegaly but every situation in peoples life is different and only they know why they do it.
I am not on favor of braking the law BUT I WILL NEVER BE ON FAVOR OR IN THE SAME SIDE OF ABUSIVE, RACIST, IGNORANT AND PLAIN MEAN PEOPLE LIKE YOU.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: November 9, 2006

An Important Battle is Won in the War on Christmas
Wal-Mart Will Stop Censorship of Ads and Greetings

Orlando, FL - Wal-Mart has finally admitted that censoring Christmas is not a good idea. After experiencing a backlash last Christmas season from unhappy customers and facing frustrated employees, some of whom turned to Liberty Counsel for help, Wal-Mart retreated from its use of "Happy Holidays" and will let employees greet shoppers with "Merry Christmas."

"We, quite frankly, have learned a lesson from last year," said spokeswoman Linda Blakely of Wal-Mart in an interview with USA Today news. Blakely claims Wal-Mart will say "Merry Christmas" early and often. Wal-Mart will be playing Christmas carols now through the end of the year.

The world's largest retailer told its associates at a recent conference that it will bring back the Christmas pitch in an attempt to be the leader in this year's sales. Wal-Mart's advertising will announce "Christmas" and its decorations department will change from "The Holiday Shop" to "The Christmas Shop."

Liberty Counsel, a nationwide, public interest civil liberties law firm, launched its fourth annual "Friend or Foe Christmas Campaign" this year and is already receiving many consumer complaints about stores refusing to recognize the Christmas holiday. On its web site, www.LC.org, Liberty Counsel offers a Help Save Christmas™ action pack, which includes educational legal memoranda to educate government officials, teachers, parents, students, private businesses, employees and others that it is legal to celebrate Christmas. The action pack also includes a very popular "I LOVE CHRISTmas™" button.

Anita Staver, President of Liberty Counsel, commented: "We are glad that Wal-Mart stopped censoring Christmas. Wal-Mart should have realized it cannot censor Christmas and would have avoided the wrath of the public. To those that claim there is no war against Christmas in America, Wal-Mart is 'Exhibit A' in our 'Friend or Foe Christmas Campaign'. We are having a tremendous response when we ask the public to report a 'grinch' in their community. Wal-Mart has been removed from our 'grinch' list."

Mathew Staver, Founder and Chairman of Liberty Counsel, noted: "Last year our 'Friend or Foe Christmas Campaign' ignited a movement to restore Christmas. Retailers that attempt to profit from Christmas while pretending it does not exist will no longer be patronized. The tsunami of voices fed up with the secularization of Christmas was heard loud and clear, from city hall to the world's largest retailer. I am pleased that Wal-Mart will recognize Christmas this year. Now that the number one retailer has abandoned its generic 'Happy Holidays' greeting in favor of 'Merry Christmas,' other retailers no longer have an excuse to run from Christmas."

Against:
- not shown to serve as a deterrent against crime
- is irrevocable, so what if you execute an innocent?

For:
- where there is undisputable evidence that someone is guilty of horrible crimes, is it healthy that society as a whole should be sacrificing resources to keep the criminal in jail for decades, when clearly that money could be better used to develop the said society (the same money could probably schools a dozen children till college)?

It seems like Hillary Clinton may be the Democrat's top choice for the 2008 election. There has never been a female president so I wonder if she could win.

I keep hearing there are millions of illegals in our country, yet it seems the federal government is doing nothing to resolve this issue. Is the rule of law just a catch-phrase the president uses when he wants to make a point in his favor?

It would seem unlikely to me that any judge would go against their own state, that is like robbing your boss to give the money to someone else. Also, if you are attempting to sue the state prosecutor, legally are you trying to sue just that person or instead the state itself?
