Dems seem to always bash Walmart.

But, Pennsylvania's Governor Rendell (former mayor of Philadelphia) was on hand today as Walmart announced that it would build a store in a high-unemployment part of Pittsbugh.

What is up with Dems? One minute they bash Walmart The next minute, they treat Walmart like a hero.

Those of you in denial about her crimes (you KNOW who you are) need not "answer". If you choose to "answer" anyway please keep it civil or you will be reported. I'm tired of you wack-jobs blathering on without every saying anything with even one iota of substance.

Do you think his support of undocumented workers is going to hurt his chances of being president? Polls indicate that 82% of Americans want undocumented workers deported. And a summer of 2006 poll indicated that over 50% of Hispanics want undocumented workers deported. I think the candidate that comes out strongly against undocumented workers will win the presidency. A poll done last year already indicated it was the top hot button issue besides the war.

His amnesty comments he made to Jay Leno will come up later on. Should he correct his position as soon as possible to avoid more damage?

I think people in Washington have been listening to too many media spinners and too many squeaky wheels who get a lot of grease. Democrat politician have lost contact with their constituents.

I got picked up about a month ago on DUI charges. tomorrow is my court date. I was wondering tho, do I have to go? I am not going to contest the charges or anything like that. All I really needed to go for was to set up a pay plan for my fine. So, can I just call them and do it over the phone or do I have to go to court?

In his presidents day speech , Bush compared Iraq to the revolutionary war. He began talking about washington's steadfastness and resolve in the face of oppisition. Is he so dilusional that he would compare himself to George Washington?

I can see privacy during the voting procedure (to avoid outside influence), but who cares who you voted for, once you are done? Really, what's the big deal? So you voted. Are people ashamed of who they voted for? Do they not stand up for who they voted for?

This all leads to the "paper trail" costs, and trying to hide it wih all of these electronic voting machines and how accurate they really are without a paper trail.

smuggled contraband cleverly hidden inside the vehicle would you be allowed to keep it or get a reward for turning it in or get arrested for possessing it? I'm thinking either stolen jewels or drugs.

The rich use to hire armies and use the peasants surfs and slaves to fight battles .There Sons became officers to handle payroll and tell the troops which field to line up in . Then the Americans who had escaped to a free country learned not to line up in open fields and go at it . Before then wars ended when all the poor people died or the money ran out . I hate war but if you want one then go in and do the job right . I am sick and tired of people calling themselves patriots and Telling others to leave the country.
Bush just prints more money and tightens the economy enough so poor kids have only one job thats hiring . The military . War and anyone supporting war is just plain stupid .
The only way to win a war is bomb the hell out of everything until the enemy lines up at you feet ,hands over all weapons and asks how high . Thats how high to jump .
Limited war is a unicorn and we have all seen what a unicorn can do . Oh thats right there are none ,amazing ,Bush believes in them

I tried to commit suicide a long time go when I was 16, I was really down in the pits because i thought i failed everything in school. I was admitted by my own choice to go to a mental hospital. I realize how stupid it was and if you asked me today i'd say your an idiot. When i admit it to the board, will that mean automatic disqualification or is there still a chance that they'll hire me. Oh, and I did see a doctor for several years after the incident and still do; maybe I'll use her as a referral
