What political party are you?

The Democrats in the State of Wisoconsin are blocking this with all they've got! There was massive voter fraud in the city of Milwaukee (very liberal as is Madison) and Republican law makers wanted reform. The Democrats say it is RACIST to demand an ID - HOW IS THAT RACIST?

The WI Teacher's Union (they are mostly Democrats) is having a meeting soon and they need to vote on some issues. NO ONE will be able to vote for teacher's issues without a VALID ID!

Let's see - it's OKAY TO CHEAT if you vote for politicians but not okay if you vote for teacher's issues...hmmmmm?

The composition of a nations population is growing increasingly complex. The composition of previous populations in history was relatively simplistic: Where nations were composed of populations with uniform religious, cultural, ideological and somewhat structured society and socioeconomic strata. Todays countries have wide variations of ideology and content within their populations many of which are in contradiction to one another. Government and power of position is then given to individuals who "seem" to represent the majority. However with increasingly complex structure is it not possible that there is no majority ? That the stastical differences between fractions are negligible ? That the election of a leadership from one fraction/ideology is as incorrect and unjust as an election from the myraid others. How than can a leadership be trusted to work for the benifit of all the diverse elements which constitute the population.?. Or does it persue it own agenda or self serving ends?

My boyfriend has 3 children from his previous marriage. In July 2006 his ex wife decided she was going to move away to PA from FL. She decided to leave their 12 yo daughter with us and took their 10 yo daughter and five yo son to PA with her. Lately his 10 yo daughter has been calling us on a daily basis begging to let her come and live with us. She will be coming down this summer to visit and we know she is going to refuse to go back to PA. There is no legal custody arrangement with any of the children. The 12 yo does not want to visit her mom because she is scared that she will not send her back. What should we do regarding the 10 yo? The girls will be 11 and 13 by the summer, should we contact an attorney and file for custody of the girls as one already lives with us and the other wants to? I believe that they are both old enough to decide who they want to be with. The oldest has no intentions of ever going back to her mom. I believe the girls should be together. ????

What are you going to do if Bush fails to veto the spending bill the house has proposed? No matter what bracket you are in, your taxes are going to go up significantly.

TAX AND SPEND AT ITS FINEST.

"The Democrat's budget calls for a tax increase of every tax bracket, slashes the child tax credit, raises the death tax, and reinstates the marriage penalty. And this is just a sampling, there is more. In all, the Democrat's plan will cost taxpayers over $390 billion in the next 5 years. What is particularly frustrating about this ill-advised action is that the Democrats are blatantly ignoring the economic consequences and fiscal benefits that lower taxes have brought to the treasury the past few years. Revenue has increased in double digits the last two years alone because of the economic expansion encouraged by reduced taxation. This revenue growth has been crucial in reducing the deficit."

A friend of mine was granted green card from a foreign country before she got married. After two years, she went back and got married thinking that they would proceed to the US for the honey moon. Due time and jobs in America, she decided to leave the husband behind to go to the embassy and apply for visa but alas, The man was humiliated and was lectured to at the embassy and told to tell his wife to appeal for him and the appeal will take five years. They asked him why never married a native who had nothing to do with America. surely, is this ethical or fair to anybody regardless of nationality? I think America is promoting same sex marriage and advocating the extinction of family unit consisting of man and wife. This guy has gone to the embassy twice last being last week when he was told that he was wasting their time for he will never even visit American if not with an immigrant visa and not visiting visa as he waits for immigrant one.Their case was approved but even then...God!!!

Recently, I've been seeing too many companies outsourcing their customer service to different countries, namely India. Granted, they work for much less, I get so upset because I can't understand them. Whenever I ask to speak to a supervisor, they get all pissy and I'm pretty sure that they transfer me back to themselves. Even Yahoo! outsources to India for their customer service. As such, do you think it's negatively effecting our economy, or is it boosting it?

......at least, it was Nancy that ran the whole show. Have we forgotten he had alzheimer's disease? Nancy helped him with all his speeches. They had a hearing device on his ears & she often even finished his sentences. She took care of every little detail & made all the decisions for him. Nancy successfully hid all this from the public until almost the end of his presidency. Yet she got no credit, go figure!

I'm not saying he was or wasn't great....that is for others to decide. I'm only pointing out that Nancy got no credit for her part in "keeping it all together" in the last 2 or 3 yrs & that the GOP kept his condition hidden until the end of his term

I asked this question yesterday & people with short memories asked for my source. Here it is:

“Alzheimer's disease overtakes a person very gradually, and for a while can be indistinguishable from such mild memory loss. But eventually the forgetting reaches the stage where it is quite distinct from an absentminded loss of one's glasses or keys. Fleeting moments of almost total confusion seize a person who is otherwise entirely healthy and lucid.

By 1992, the signs of Reagan's illness were impossible to ignore. At the conclusion of a medical exam in September, as the New York Times would later report, Reagan looked up at his doctor of many years with an utterly blank face and said, "What am I supposed to do next?" This time, the doctor knew that something was very wrong.

Sixteen months later, in February 1994, Reagan flew back to Washington, D.C., from his retirement home in Bel Air, California, for what would turn out to be his final visit. The occasion was a dinner celebrating his own eighty-third birthday, attended by Margaret Thatcher and twenty-five hundred other friends and supporters.

Before the gala began, the former President had trouble recognizing a former Secret Service agent whom he had know well in the White House. This didn't come as a total shock to his wife, Nancy, and other close friends, but it did cause them to worry that Reagan might have problems with his speech that night.

The show went on as planned. After an introduction by Thatcher, Reagan strolled to the podium. He began to speak, then stumbled, and paused. His doctor, John Hutton, feared that Reagan was about to humiliate himself. "I was holding my breath, wondering how he would get started," Hutton later recalled, "Then suddenly something switched on, his voice resounded, he paused at the right places, and he was his old self.

Back at his hotel after the dinner, Reagan again slipped into his unsettling new self, turning to Nancy and saying, "Well, I've got to wait a minute. I'm not quite sure where I am." Though the diagnosis and public announcement were both months away, Reagan was already well along the sad path already trod by his mother [and] his brother.”

If PM Blair and the British Navy so sure about the 15 British sailors were in Iraqi water while they were arrested , why the hell the Commander of the HMS Cornhall just watched and did nothing to protect the 15 British sailors from being arrested in the first place , after all , the HMS Cornwall has sufficient firepower , as we are told now , to destroy the 5 Iranian gunboats.

Whether liberal or conservative, presidents have come and gone. Administrations have come and gone. The structure of the supreme court has changed.

When our constitution specifies just 21 rights or powers that the Federal Government has, retaining ALL the rest to the States and to the People, how is it that so many of those rights and powers retained (interesting word, look it up) by the people have mysteriously gone over to the Federal Government?

And WHO is responsible for THAT?

Why is everyone so eager after they capture those sailors? I know tensions with Iraq aren't great Scuttlebutt is they are training, and sending fighters in Iraq. Tensions are tense with them. They are trying to develop nuclear technology. I mean if something happen sure to those sailors. But this isn't the first time this has happen with sailors being captured by Iran. We just imposed sanctions on them. Let's take it from there, and see where it goes. Anyone have any input, be great? Thanks.

or will she continue to run? Is her ego so huge that she cannot see that Americans will not vote for her.

Zogby's latest poll showed 46% of all likely voters would never vote for her and yet the most telling part is that 18% of Democratic voters said the same thing, NO WAY AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN.

So given all of that will she continue to try to destroy others in her madness, will she make the political landscape a barren wasteland with her scorch and burn campaign? Do you feel badly for Obama who is going to be destroyed personally in this process?

Given the numbers from this poll, she has no chance of winning an election and should she be the nominee that means another Republican White House. Now for all of you liberal types, do you want another Republican in the White House? Maybe you should think about electability when you vote for the nominee.
