... since they will do little to help Africa's truly poor come to America. And, they will do little to help Arabs and Muslims come to America.

In the meantime, they support Chinese, Indians, and Mexicans coming to America.

Why won't Dems talk about whether or not they think a lot more Arabs, Muslims, and Africans should be allowed to come to America????

Why won't Dems confront the fact that they won't stand up for the poorest people of the world and for those who are of religion that is "foreign" to them?

Isn't that racism, Dems?

Last week a co-worker of mine had some not so nice visitors who just wanted to talk to her..Yeah right! My manager locked the doors and told them they can talk to my co-worker later. They got pissed walked and made a sharp right not going towards their car but the office parking lot. About two minutes later I see them go back to their car. I was curious so when I walked out they bolted. Walked by my car and my whole driver side and the top of my trunk was keyed down to the metal, another employee's car next to mine was keyed on the trunk. We know who did this and my co-worker whose drama this is acts like it is not her problem. I am very upset and I do not know what to do. Should I ask her for the deductible amount needed to get it fixed before it starts to rust or should I wait for the cops to try and get them which could take months who knows. I feel in a way this is ALL her fault and she should offer this and she should wait on the cops! HELP!!!

Do you think this is right? A New York senator telling another state to change their flag. Stars and Bars have a great historical significance to South Carolina. Why did she not say anything when she was first lady?

Would their fellow officers EVER stand up and speak of the EXCESSIVE FORCE? For example when a police officer breaks his hand on somebody's face, lies and arrests the person for FALSE charges( 104 Queens, NY) what is the chance that the other officers who pleaded for him to stop ever telling the truth of what actually happened?

I am curious about the "blue wall of silence" and how far it goes.

Dems don't seem to mind Chinese, Mexicans and Indians becoming a huge part of America.

But, why aren't Dems doing all they can to get Africa's poor and a lot more Arabs and Muslims into America???

Is it fair that Mexicans can easily come here while the truly poor people of Africa are given little help/hope in coming to America?

Why aren't Dems standing up so that many more Muslims can come to America? Are Dems racist and afraid that America will head down the path that Europe is on with its Muslims?

It was just in December of 2006 that they released their report on the situation in Iraq and gave policy recommendations. It seems to have completely been ignored by war supporters and anti-war supporters. Is anyone in politics still talking about this, or trying to get more attention on the report?

I'm not endorsing or denouncing this report, I was just wondering.

This IS NOT my opinion- I'd like to point this out from the start.

A friend of mine has stated that the Army and Royal Marines lead a much harder life than their contemporaries in the Navy and RAF after basic training.

To what extent is this true?

I would like to hear from personnal in all branches of the UK armed forces as well as the opinions of those serving in foreign forces.

Thanks.
