If the coorperations get their North American Union, they will eventually assimilate canadians and Mexicans through trade and commerce. Eventually over generations North America could become the United States of North America. Will this be good or bad for American citizens?

Ok,
Two weeks ago I was in one arabic country, one city exactly - Dubai. And if you have an idea what Dubai is..a city where is the most expensive hotel in the world(I believe only this is enough for you to achieve some general idea about the whole atmosphere in Dubai), you will probably start to think: "Are really the muslims that bad?"
And soon...I watched the execution of Saddam...or at least a part of it, and then noticed how coldblooded and proud he was, which is a honor to him.

And after I saw Dubai and Sadam's execution, I started to think what is the truth about the war on terrorism...well here are the facts:

1. No evidence that 11th september was planned by alkeada.
2. Bush killed more innocent people than Saddam.
3. The americans must be crazy to support this.

That's it...

I have seen several democrats running for the presidency. Who are the repulicans running? Have they just been lost because there is more diversity in the democrats or are we giving up on all repulicans?

I'm thinking of having my employer sponsor me for Top Secret clearance. I know the process will cost them about $10K. I have been advised to not apply (and cause my employer to spend that money) if there are things in my background that would cause my application to be rejected. Just wondering what factors are considered when applying for this clearance.
Thanks.

Should Bush be impeached for derelect of duty? He avoids every opportunity to protect our border. Because of that, he is responsible for loosing the war on drugs and he's also responsible for violence caused by Illegals.

giving every (wo)man a fish, would the Liberal losers cease to have a constituency because African-Americans, for one, wouldn't be slaves to the Democrats, and Race Pimps like Jesse Jackson would be out of business?

Thanks to RLP.

I know it was done acceptably in the old times, if someone was a disgrace to their city / town, but can this still be done legally today?

(NOTE: This question does NOT include deportation and illegal immigrants!)

In American Government, the Congress is the branch that is supposed to run the country. But I wonder who really runs it. Congress or the President? If it is the later, what seperates us from any other socialist or totaltalitarian style of government?

Ok... so, 43 days ago I overnighted a guy in CA (who i found on craigslist) a $1250 cashier's check for a canon 20d camera and a canon 24-70mm L lens... I had talked to him on the phone and he made it all sound totally legit. I honestly still think it was. Basically, a long story short, I have been calling and emailing him ever since and besides a couple little emails and one time of answering a call after he cashed my check -- he has been stringing me along. So in response to someones advice, I wrote him a registered letter restricted to his name only... I got the message and signature saying he recieved the letter 1.5 weeks ago, and according to what I saw-- someone else signed for it, even after I paid the post office to restrict it to his signature only. This was confirmed when the guy emailed me on the deadline I gave him last Tuesday saying he would "send me my money back once he got home, as he hadn't read the letter yet"...

Please talk to their managers and have them fired. It will kill the economy if the trend continues.

A year ago I tried to cash a check in my name at my husbands bank. He had signed it and filled it out. The teller refused the check and then put a fraud alert out on my name without any knowledge to me. A week later I tried to cash another check at the same bank which this time was from my mother. Then I was denied only to find out after a phone call that a fraud alert was put on my name. My husbands account was froze without any notification and we were charged tons of fees from returned checks. After several calls I was told that the fraud alert was removed but never given an apology. Now over a year later I tried to cash another check from my husband and was told they wouldnt because of the "FRAUD ALERT" . Im totally pist and very upset!!! How can they get a way with this and do I have a right to sue for this when they have no reason for the fraud alert

Who agrees that we should never have a female president? I mean what if she is PMSing and decides to bomb Canada just because she ate some bad canadian bacon.

Please don't answer if you don't believe in the divinity of the bible or if you are an atheist. Should it belong to the jews, the arabs, to everyone, etc.?

I read in a magazine article that The NATO members Britain and America are considering an anglo-American regiment of paratroopers. If this is true, do you think it would work?

Is it because liberals choose to back the underdogs to feel superior to someone?

WHY else would you WANT someone poor and dependent for life - if not to feel power over them?
