and that it was in fact all about taxes and state rights???

I have official statements from southern states saying it was indeed about slavery.
---------------
DECLARATION OF SECESSION, MISSISSIPPI
"In the momentous step which our State has taken of dissolving its connection with the government of which we so long formed a part, it is but just that we should declare the prominent reasons which have induced our course."

Psi Chi, did it ever occur to you that Americans dislike illegal aliens not because of the color of their skin, but because of their illegal behavior? Do you respect American law?

Do you know that the United States is the last country in the free world not to offer it's citizen's a subsidized Health Care program? Wouldn't it be nice to not have to worry about going backrupt if something major happened in your family?

Vowing to Veto any bill that is going to stop his precious war, without even seeing it. Is that enough evidence for the people out there that he does not care what goes on...as long as he is profiting one way or another?

And a year from now (heaven forbid) another big terrorist attack happens on US soil, what will the Anti-War people say? Hypothetically speaking, they got their way and we abandoned Iraq to its own devices. What would the public outcry be when hundreds or thousands of people (once again, heaven forbid) are killed?

that they will vote to use our tax dollars to fund abortion?
We all know that they are pro choice and want to keep abortion legal and make partial birth abortion legal as well.
But will they also want to use our tax dollars to make it easier to kill the most defenseless and innocent of us all?
I think President Bush deserves our gratitude on voting to keep the ban on anti-partial birth abortion laws.
Thank you Mr. President.
Also how many of you know what partial birth abortion is?Until recently I thought it meant using birth control pills.But when I learned the truth about what it really is I was horrified and shocked.And to think that three of the people runing for president approve of it really makes me mad.
How about you?
What are your thoughts on this?

when they voted along with Democrats to force him to do so?

Is it do as I say, not as I do for Republicans???

Congress forced Clinton to remove the troops. Without a declaration of war, the War Powers Resolution of 1973 gives Congress the power to remove the troops.

HERE'S THE PROOF:

WAR POWERS RESOLUTION OF 1973
Section 5(c)
"Notwithstanding subsection (b), at any time that United States Armed Forces are engaged in hostilities outside the territory of the United States, its possessions and territories without a declaration of war or specific statutory authorization, such forces shall be removed by the President if the Congress so directs by concurrent resolution."

the economy, but if it was written in such a way that it didn't hurt the economy and drastically improved all areas of the enviroment possible and drastically slowed the non-preventible damage being done to it and the climate as much as possible while at the same time shifting the US away from all forms of non-renewable energy and resources as fast as possible without harming said economy or individuals rights and liberties while at the same time creating good blue collar, white collar and scientific jobs would you then give it your full support? I think that if legislation is purposefully written, and written brillently, to catalyze certain particular things and to prevent certain particular things, even if the combination of the catalyzation and prevention is very complacated it can be done especially in order for all groups in the country involved to be fully satisfied with it, do you think that this is possible if the politicians we currently have rise to the occasion?

I hear these terms all the time. I'm from the United States which is known to be a 1st world country. I recently went to Argentina which is known to be a 3rd world country, but to me the things they have there is similar to what we have here of course there are some difference but to me the majority is pretty much what we have in the usa such as the buildings, technology and etc. So i really don't understand the difference,

In George Tenet's new book, he described the invasion of Iraq as looking like a " .... slow-motion car crash."

In view of this, isn't it more appropriate to let the other party have a go in the driver's seat?

So many voters caused this "highway piled up" that has resulted in thousands dead and maimed.
It's time to re-evaluate the leadership capabilities of the GOP.

My son tried to break in a house a week ago and got caught red handed.

The owner decide that he'll settle out of court. So he invited me over to his house yesterday to discuss this.

I was shocked that he asked for 15,000 to repair his large bay window. My son used a large cinder block and crowbar to break through the custom made window bars then he smash specific type of glass for window that cost more than average.

It disgust me because this man is a professional fighter and not even in his 30's yet. Yet he have all this expensive stuff and didn't contribe to social. He doesn't need this ridiculous expensive bay window. So is it legal if I tell him I'll replace it to minimal require or not? I'm sure it can be replace for lower thousands of dollars if he use regular products instead of custom made.

Or can he take me to court and make me pay more for all other crime charges my son did?
