A few years ago I raked blueberries up in Maine. It was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life, and I got paid almost nothing. One thing that i got out of it was a better acceptance of immigrants in our nation, especially hispanic ones.

Just wondering if anyone has experienced anything similar to this?

Isn't it the right thing to do when we have aggraviated our constitution and whole legal system and democratic institutions by getting fixed elections in 2004 and 2004 and a selected presiDUNCE that lies to the American public at every possible stance?

Why not RESTORE DEMOCRACY FIRST in America?

1..we would not have to work as hard to survive.... two family incomes to survive and neglecting children would not be normal
2.. their would be a smaller gap between the rich and poor,,,,, yachts and luxury homes would rarely exist.....
the rich would be more moderate.......
3 standardized health care would exist... hurting doctors (limiting their income)
4. corporations would be limited in power
5. workers unions and people would have the power....
6. more varied politicians

I get really tired of all these conspiracy theories. Why can't people just accept that we were attacked?

WASHINGTON - Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice told The Associated Press on Thursday that
Iraq is "worth the investment" in American lives and dollars and said the U.S. can still win a conflict that has been more difficult than she expected.

In an interview at the State Department, the nation's highest-ranking black government official also said the United States is ready to elect a black president.

Rice was asked whether an additional $100 billion the
Pentagon wants for the Iraq and Afghan wars might amount to throwing good money after bad in Iraq.
President Bush and Congress have already provided more than $500 billion for the two conflicts and worldwide efforts against terrorism, including more than $350 billion for Iraq.

"I don't think it's a matter of money," Rice said.

Before You Answer, "THINK". Remember, Your hero's are a lot of the signers of the Humanist Manifestos. Do You know what That Means?? Ask Yourself this, Do You desire that The U.S., survive as a nationalist nation, Or do You prefer Socialism? Which desires a one world government? Before You puke out stupidity here, go look up what I just said. Look up the Humanist manifestos.Tell me how humanism, is the friend of the capitalistic U.S.A.?

Some of the questions on the test are:What is the tallest Mountain in the U.S?The tallest mountain in the U.S. is MT.McKinley.What's one thing Ben Franklin was famous for?The catch is they are looking for 3 very specific answers for that question.Such as he was one of the oldest people in the Constitutional Convention.Another question is who is the current Attorney General?The answer to that is Alberto Gonzales.I'm in college and I don't know any of these answers.except I know Ben Franklin is famous for flying a kite and getting electricuted and was a famous politician.These questions are not relevant to becoming U.S. citizens at all.The reporter asked these questions on the street and nobody knew the answers not even the women.

Our condo pres got elected for 5 months by proxy and during that time he has managed to fire, hire and fir , hire again 3property management companies in 5 months. The first property mgt co was here for 3 years and had it's contract renewed by the previous pres when the new prs came in and within 2 weeks cancelled the contract and everyone had to leave. The first property mgt co gave the condo corp a lawsuite worth$200,000 plus interest and legal fees for firing them "no just cause". The condo is in the middle of examing these actions. The past pres has not been re-elected and a new pres is responsible for overseein gthe mistakes of the past pres. The past pres threathens legal action is they find him personally responsible for the lawsuit as the corp will personally sue him for his irresponsible actions. If everything happens like this it could go on for years and I live here and worry about the cost to me for legal fees etc. Can anything be done to remedy this problem.?

I'm sure everyone has heard about Rep, Virgil Goode's (R-VA) astounding comments about Muslims.

By now every Muslim in the world knows about it and is saying "see, they hate us. It really is a crusade against Islam.

This will make some of the crazy ones go to Iraq to fight, and turn the even crazier ones into terrorists.

I visited the Mexican town of Agua Prieta with my friend Pasquali. We stopped there to watch the vaqueros train horses. I understand Chip Sugar, famous Horse Whisperer, of Hawley, Texas once helped out here. These are some of the finest young cowboys I have ever seen. Their ability to train and ride horses is uncanny. I got talked into buying a young Stallion and I have decided to call him Chingadero, because I don’t think he will get real big and is a little ornery. He will fetch many times his cost here in the U.S. to benefit charity and they can call him whatever they want.

I don’t know much about horses much past what end to feed, however I do know a great deal about people. What I don’t understand is how Mexico with its abundant resources and human capital can screw things up so bad?

My daughter was accused of stealing a cell phone, that she did not steal. She was harrassed by the vice principal for a whole day at school to the point where she was throwing up and very upset over the whole incident. When she went to the nurse because she was vomitting they told her they did not know what to do for her. Plus a good many of her teachers were talking about her in front of other students. Can I sue the school for this? This is not the 1st incident I have had with them. What type of lawyer would I contact?
