It seems to me that the Gulf coast is being ignored yet again by our government. 110 billion in aid for the gulf coast and over 300 billion spent in Iraq with many more billions being spent and asked for. And it seems that most of the people in Iraq don't want us there. I feel that Iraq will go through a civil war wether we stay 5 yrs. or 30 yrs.. So shouldn't we be spending that money to help our own citizens?

But then are afraid to allow the public to email or IM for further debate?

Seems like if you really believe what you say, you'd be willing to back it up if questioned, and not hide behind an anonymous account. Why not allow people to email you, and stand up for what you believe?

why do I keep seeing these "clinicas" & "clinicas de mama" pop up on every corner? For those of you with no understanding of Spanish that means doctors & gynecologists - clinics. How are these privately owned businesses not only surviving but THRIVING to the point that there are more & more of them being built? It seems the belief of the popular majority that all illegals are using hospitals & not paying or somehow tapping into government subsidized healthcare & draining our resources yet the clinicas require up-front payment and pregnant women actually set up a payment plan and make payments on giving birth - usually to the tune of about $7,000. I know several who have done just that.

So which is it? The illegals are abusing our own healthcare system or they are building more clinicas & the illegals are going there & paying for their own healthcare?

Are they really the snivelling little cowards that they appear to be?

Are they really this afraid of the truth?

Will they swing by Wal-Mart this afternoon to pick up more magnetic ribbons for their car as a true sign of their deep concern and commitment to the troops?

Will any of them have the spine to address the issues brought up in this link?

I just wrote a new R&B song. Here it goes, ¨Norman dG., you will go o down in historry, so proud as if you stormed the beaches of Normandy, but to me you are just Norman B., the dude that will go down in history, a snitch to some, to me just a mystery. (rap solo)
Norman, whatcha thinkin bout mormon, I am so quick like the old foreman, and everybody in the 60´s was scared of Norman, I didn´t say mormon, just the freakishly weird Norman. One, two...
two, one, a one, two, a three, and a four, all I hear from Norm is please don´t attack me anymore, I report answers quicker than a $%floor, open, close, and re-open the door, get on the floor, Norman don´t hit the door.¨
How was that? Who will publish that one? Maybe Norm can, norm, can you send some money to my e-mail account, to get this song published? I mean you already have written directly to my e-mail 5 times. Can you answer this question without worrying about little buttons like thumbs up and down, mister? Love&Respect.

My uncle lives on social security due to a perminent disability. His social security check is received on the 3rd of every month and the rent is due on the 5th of every month. That gives him 2 days to wheel down to the bank 2 miles away and cash his social security check which is almost impossible in the Minnesota snow, and the check also has to be mailed out which sometimes might take a few days to be received by the management. The check cannot be given to the landlord. The apartment management charges a late fee each month to him for being late. They won't push the rent due date ahead atleast 1 or 2 days. Of course he has a Care attendant with him most of the day, but he has to appear at the bank to cash the check in person.

Is there a law that will make the apartment management push the rent due date ahead? They seemed really grumpy on the phone when we tried to ask them to push the date ahead.

I think it's our job as men to give women the equal right to go topless too. Let' all try to pass this law as soon as possible. Summer is coming.

I am just curious as to why the police do not need to by law disclose any CCTV footage which would prove your innocence of a crime.

Why are CCTV footage mainly used for prosecution purposes?

I'm getting mixed responses/suggestions from people. Hence posting this question. Here is my case:
1. I'm currently in US on L1 visa
2. Shifting to H1 thru another employer this year. Visa getting filed on 2nd Apr
3. I'm traveling on 31st Mar to my native country and will not return until 10th May
4. I want to come back on L1, continue till 30th Sep and move on to H1 seamlessly 1st Oct onwards

Now my queries:
1. Is it true that traveling when a change of status (here L1 to H1) is filed and is pending will jeopardize the new visa. Will my H1 get canceled or I may even not be allowed to enter on L1 in May?
2. What is the best possible way out, other than suggesting to drop my travel plan which is quite imp? Can my employer file for my H1 now and file for CoS (I-539) only when I return?
3. Can I go to say Canada in Oct and get my H1 stamped and return
4. Or is there no real issue at all and I can travel as planned
5. Any other suggestion will be really appreciated. In dilemma

I am so sick and tired of this hypocritical ignorant intolerant momma's boy who pretends to be tough and earns his points by spreading hateful agenda to the redneck viewers... Everytime I see his show it is nothing but hate and intolerance (to everyone but mainstream whites) sugarcoated as patriotism of which he has none... What do you think of that piece of trash?

As if the rats, roaches, mold, disrepair, & squalor that they live in weren't enough, now they are waking these wounded troops up at 6:00 a.m. and performing "inspections of quarters" at 7:00 a.m. every morning. Oh yeah, and they've warned these wounded heros that they better not talk to the media.

Negelect and filthy conditions compounded with threats and harassment. Is this what these right-wing animals here consider supporting the wounded troops???

Hey Cons, why don't you take the magnetic yellow ribbons off of your car and stick them in ...
