I have notices that the rich seem to be getting richer. But was suprised to read that the top 1% have enjoyed a 600% increase raise in less than 10 years.

When juxtaposed with the Minimum wage arguement it looks like a B movie.

if you knew, thought or even partly believed that your family lineage (kids, grandkids, greatgrandkids and so on) were going to be put under a rule that was equivalent to the sharia law of islam...or...law that absolutely forbid the practice of any religion (thereby instituting a state religion of atheism) , or a rule of communism or socialism by an elitist class and you had the power to stop that from happening..either by the power of force, or the power of the vote...what would you do for your progeny..?? would you try and vote out everyone who was in favor of this kind of rule, or would you sit back and let things take their course and depend on others to keep you and your family safe..?? OR..would you fully embrace either system, and which one...??? or , would you defend the american way (even with all its faults) by force if you could, orsupport those who were using force..??

I think that foreigners who can show they are legally here should be able to get loans, so I guess I would tinker with this to say if you don't have a social security card you would need immigration confirmation of legal status, rather than that you'd be barred altogether.

And thinking about it, part of me would rather we handled it through boycott than legislation. However, I think the government has a legitimate interest in preventing encouragement of illegal immigration. I just wish it extended to not offering them benefits or work of any kind.

What do you think of this bill?

Do you think that Bush will declare war on Iran?

Do you think that he would be justified in attacking Iran, as in, would it be within his legal rights?

Usually, we see many projects are being planned, disscussed, put in drawings and started by one govt. And, at the start of the project or in the middle of it, if the said Govt. become a former one, when some other party comes to power, usually the started project attain to a stand still point, due to non-supply of funds or some other scam reasons! It always hurts only the public! For example in our area an huge over bridge work started by one Govt. and it was going dead-slow when compared to other bridge works, and stopped by another new govt. stating the suspection the quality of bridge and a scam in it!
Again the old Govt came to power, after a long thought, they started again the bridge work with old rusted iron bars and dilapated reinforced concrete, exposed to atmospheric condition for several years!! Public are severly struggling due to the delay in executions, confusions in traffic diversions, etc 4 decades! IN OTHER COUNTRIES, FRIENDS! HOW YOUR GOVT. REACTS TO PUBLIC ISSUES?

After all Bush was elected twice to the Presidency. And the best their candidates managed to do is come in second. What does it say about a Party that can't manage to outsmart an idiot?

Attempting to play big brother to rest of the world will only bring more repercussions. The United States should stop complaining about what other countries, such as Iran and North Korea, do inside their country.

Long live the day that another country comes onto U.S. soil and liberate us.

In leading up to the November elections, so many of the moonbats were positive that Bush used his influence with his "oil buddies" to lower gas prices as we approached the elections. The same people swore that prices would go back up immediately after the elections. Well, that time has come and gone and they're still down. So, does that mean that Bush has been armtwisting his oil buddies the whole time just to benefit the American people?

Are we really ready for a leader who wears magic underwear, believes that God grew up on some planet named Kolob and who believes that he himself will be a God someday?

Someone who has been conditioned since birth to obey any directive given by a dozen senile white guys in Salt Lake City? Someone who believes that Native Americans are descended from Jews, that God had physical intercourse with Mary to father Jesus, and that the Garden of Eden was in Missouri?

Bad idea folks, bad idea.

My nephew was convicted of a class 4 felony ("non-forcible", drug possession.) back in 1991. He wants to re-apply for a F.O.I.D card to hunt. Would his application be rejected and if so, what can he do to appeal?

Tell me how Bush lied and show actual proof. Here are several lies you CAN NOT prove.

"This war is over oil"---Saudi Arabia has the worlds largest oil supply, allies or not we should be there fighting since Bush is as greedy as everyone says he is.

"Bush lied about WMD in Iraq"-- There were WMD found in Iraq. Besides every one else thought so too.

"This is Bush's war"-- Congress voted to go to war with a 100% vote

"Bush was behind 9/11"--I have photoshop too. Those little websites are so fake. It's disturbing that people actually take the time to look at them.

So please tell me how Bush lied and people died.

Was it due to political reasons and backing from the United States to turn these 2 countries into allies against the communist countries?

Do these 2 countries had what it takes to create their own economical miracles compared to the performance by Uk, France and Italy after the war.

I just read something on CNN about Cheney saying that "all options are on the table" for Iran if Iran doesnt stop with nuclear proliferation. I was just thinking that if the military option was on the table the size of the military would need to increase. So are they trying to beef up the size of the army to prepare for conflict with Iran?

I am currently in an Executive Committee(Exco) in a student organization and I want to know my members concerns and unhappiness towards the Exco. But one major concern is that they may not be very open to this idea as the presence of the Exco will limit their degree of free-speech.
