and people said my idea to line the border with troops with orders of shoot to kill was harsh but the government will do what I layed out if a nuke is smuggled in from Mexico and if you think they wouldnt you people who want illegals and wide open borders are fooling yourselfs . Understand the open borders are not just about Mexicans there about no security from anyone who wants to come in with a nuke let alone to work off the books and rob America blind . Do you agree or not ?

It's just surreal and horrific to me the direction this once glorious country has driven itself into, and the very real and urgent danger this administration poses to other nations, and ultimately, to ourselves. I feel that we are in so deep there is no turning back, and I fear for my own safety and the safety of my children. What can an individual do in the face of such absurdity? I vote. I march in protests. I've joined organizations, and I've written my senators dilligently and desperately seeking real and pronounced action against this belligerent and seemingly unstoppable government. This all seems so useless, and hopeless, and just 'waiting it out for the next tide to come along in 2008 doesn't cut it. I want accountability, I want action, I want this all to stop and I want to stop feeling guilty about being an American.
What can I DO to help this CAUSE? Do not answer me if you are going to belittle my beliefs or questions, because it will fall on deaf ears.

They do that in Quebec to prevent others from speaking English instead of the official language French - I think it's a good idea for this country.

I know what you're thinking. North and South Vietnam. North and South Korea. But so what? The Iranians will try to move in anyway if we move out. At least this will give them a road block until we come back and swat them for breaking the very same rules they accuse us of breaking. Lord! let us make our own alchohol fuel soon so we don't depend on these crazy people. The British almost interupted OUR civil war over cotton in 1862. Instead they used less quality cotton from India and got by. Good for that. If not who would have helped them out in 1940? Not us! Perhaps if England fell, we'd take Canada under our wing and be a lot larger a nation, but WW II would have lasted into 1948 or later. By then the whole mess would hae gone nuclear.

Don't say it is because if you think about English being the main language then their shouldn't be no need for bilingual classes at school and etc. .......

Fiery Crash Collapses Bay Area Freeway

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) - A gasoline tanker crashed and burst into flames near the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge on Sunday, creating such intense heat that a stretch of highway melted and collapsed. Officials predicted a traffic nightmare for Bay Area commuters for weeks or months to come.
Flames shot 200 feet in the air, but the truck's driver walked away from the scene with second-degree burns. No other injuries were reported in the 3:45 a.m. crash, which officials said could have been deadly had it occurred at a busier time.

"I've never seen anything like it," Officer Trent Cross of the California Highway Patrol said of the crumpled interchange. "I'm looking at this thinking, 'Wow, no one died'—that's amazing. It's just very fortunate."

Im just curious but does anyone know how a government operative manages to stay awake for long periods of time when stuck in situations where they must stay awake. For example, lets say one of our soldiers gets caught and is being held hostage in an undisclosed area. However he must stay awake or else he will miss important signals from allies on how to escape. So what would he do to keep himself awake?

SAN DIEGO (Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards said on Sunday he would consider raising taxes on the wealthy in addition to his earlier proposal to roll back tax cuts ushered in by President George W. Bush.
Earlier this year, Edwards became the first Democratic candidate to embrace taxes hikes to fund an ambitious health- care plan he estimates would cost from $90 billion to $120 billion a year. Under that plan, he would eliminate tax cuts Bush implemented for those making more than $200,000 a year.

In the past five years, hundreds of Americans have been murdered, raped, and victimized by illegal aliens. How did the government allow this to happen and how many more citizens will die before the borders are secure?

I've never felt so much tension in this country.If you live in a major city I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.The U.S. has turned into an overpopulated multi-cultural disaster.Most americans tolerated it at 1st but now they realize it has gone way too far in every aspect.
