Are they so comfortable promoting nasty, belittling stereotypes of Americans: they are fat and lazy, have "attitudes," are "complacent," only wish to watch mind-numbing television, and their country would come to a dead stop without hard-working immigrants, presumably because their fat- and tv-addled brains are incapable of the kind of innovation that only immigrants can provide them. It is a wonder that such people managed to somehow build a country that many people want to immigrate to.

I also find it fascinating that the same people protesting for "solidarity" seem to have no sense of solidarity with American workers, and simply accept their bosses viewpoint that American workers are "lazy" and have "attitudes" when they reject poorly paid employment, complain about dangerous working conditions, or seek to organize on their jobs. What say you ?

My dad works full-time on salary and his pay day is on the 1st and 15th on the month. With the new year approaching, his boss has informed him that because banks, etc. will be closed January 1st, he will not be paid until January 2nd, 2007; is this legal in Ontario (Canada)?

I'm trying to locate documentation stating otherwise...

Thanks for your help.

At this point in the illegal immigration debate, racist means someone who wants the laws enforced. So please call me racist. Do you have any other arguments pro-illegals?

You bet they do,why else this statistically wrong rubbish?:

Alex B.Ph.D.(who wanted his vote for John Kerry in 2004 to stay a secret between him and me:
"Liberal mindset:
Terrorism and muslim extremism, car bombs, beheadings, 9/11, this must be tolerated, otherwise muslims might be offended."


I thought Bush and the know-nothings had "liberating" Iraq in the bag? What gives?

Liberal mindest for real:

Maybe we CAN create peace in the long run.Wont make money for liberal-bashing reactionaries,but so what?

to the government and other agencies. I understand what this is for, and I know that some of this money goes to people on welfare, etc..what i dont care for is when some people decide to go climb a mountain in the dead of winter and my tax dollars are used to go look for them..im thinking hundreds of thousands have gone to help look for the remaining two mt hood mountain climbers...why? nobody forced them to do this..they were looking for adventure and they got it...why should i pay for their stupidity? you can agree or disagree with my comments i dont care..i dont think its right.

What do you think of this idea? To stop the fighting you dangle a giant carrot in front of the fighters. If they continue fighting, they don't get the carrot. For example, you announce a $500 million grant over 10 years to scientists/people in the country requiring equal numbers of participants from all factions (as many as possible). If accepted, the money would help bring sides together for a common goal that would lead to development that would further prevent war and suffering. Sounds pretty cool, huh?

The reason that he gave us for going into war with Iraq was to stop Saddam from producing Weapons of Mass Destruction. However, he has come out and said that there were no WMD's. So he changed the purpose of the war to speading democracy. Do you still support him after this?

Why do people decree "State Sovereignty" a reason for not deposing Saddam ??
The most ridiculous argument an activist or diplomat can make in defense of a dictator like Saddam Hussein is that the tyrant cannot be deposed because of his nation Sovereignty. The notion that America did not have the authority to overthrow one of the worst dictators (over 1,000,000 civilians killed during his reign ) that ever walked the face of the earth because of state sovereignty is absurd.

Based on that logic : Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, Kosovo, Bosnia, Rwanda, Sudan are unable to be touched because they too are sovereign nations.
The genocide in Rwanda, for example, has been mourned theatrically in retrospect – Europeans especially will weep over corpses, but will do nothing to protect those still alive. In America we call this cowardice!

The sole purpose for any government is to protect its citizens. A state that kills its own people has no legitimacy! NO MATTER WHAT THE TYRANNT RIDDEN UNITED NATIONS SAYS. Knowing what we all no now about the mass graves and torture chambers, WMD attacks, and countless other severe infractions of” international law”, how can any moral person state that Saddam should have been left alone?
Sovereignty cannot be an excuse for uninhibited savagery. Saddam was a HITLER to his people. People who objected to the removal of Saddam Hussein’s regime on grounds of state sovereignty are the moral descendents of those who looked away from Hitler’s crimes. The difference today is that those who condone mass murder pose as moral arbiters and demand to know what right America has to decide which governments are tolerable and which are not. The answer is simple. “When the forces for good fail to act, the forces of evil triumph.” And America is the worlds essential force for good. No amount of fashionable anti-Americanism will change that. And though we may not always have the blessing from the rest of the world to depose dictators, tyrants, murderers and terrorists we will surge forward and do what we know is right. The world will be better for it.

We must not fear to act when action is necessary, moral and possible. Whenever the situation allows we should act in concert with our natural allies and those apprentice states moving toward mature freedom. But when we are forced to stand alone in a just cause, we must not hesitate…Let history judge us.
