The protesters put up the Mexican flag over the American flag flying upside down at Montebello High School in California. Why? If they want the Mexican way of life, what are they doing here? If they don't want what the USA has to offer as indicated by the upside down flag of the USA, what are they doing here?

My ancestors came here legally. They went through all the steps to become naturalized citizens. They learned the language and adapted to the new country. The only reason there are so many more illegals here from Latin American countries is we share a common border.

I understand they want a better life than they had in their home country. That is the same reason my ancestors came. But there are limits on how fast this country can assimilate new people. That is why we have immigration laws. I fail to see much good coming from not enforcing the laws we have. Do we wait till we have full scale riots before we do something?

Fort Dix Terror PlotAt least 5 nationals of former Yugoslavia arrested
Feds say six suspects, described as recent Muslim converts, plotted to 'kill as many soldiers as possible' on N.J. Army base. These recent converts to Islam were intending to kill as many Americans as possible

The Associated Press reported that those captured were nationals of the former Yugoslavia, but the law enforcement source told FOX News that not all of them are of Albanian ethnicity. Law enforcement officials said the attack was stopped in the planning stages and that the men were arrested while trying to buy automatic weapons in a sale set up by law enforcement authorities. Authorities believe the men trained for the attack in the woods in the Poconos and allegedly conducted surveillance at other area military institutions, including the Army's Fort Monmouth, the official said.

If America cuts & runs in Iraq, that will free up even more of them to wreak havok here.

Here is how I handle a bad day and start each day with a positive outlook:

1. Open a new file in your computer.

2. Name it "Hillary Rodham Clinton"

3. Send it to the recycle bin.

4. Empty the recycle bin.

5. Your PC will ask you, "Do you really want to get rid of "Hillary Rodham
Clinton?"

6. Firmly Click "Yes."

7. Feel better?

I knew about the red light on cars, but not the *77. It was about 1 P.M. in the afternoon, and Lauren was driving to visit a friend. An UNMARKED police car pulled up behind her and put his lights on. Lauren's parents have always told her to never pull over on the side of the road, but rather to wait until she gets to a gas station, etc.

Lauren actually listened to her parents' advice, and promptly called *77 on her cell phone to tell the police dispatcher that she would not pull over right away. She proceeded to tell the dispatcher that there was an unmarked police car with a flashing red light on his rooftop behind her. The dispatcher checked to see if there were police cars where she was and there weren't, and he told her to keep driving, remain calm and that he had back up already on the way.

Ten minutes later 4 cop cars surrounded her and the unmarked car behind her. One policeman went to her side and the others surrounded the car behind. They pulled the guy from the car and tackled him to the ground. The man was a convicted rapist and wanted for other crimes!

I never knew about the *77 Cell Phone Feature, but especially for a woman alone in a car, you should not pull over for an unmarked car. Apparently police have to respect your right to keep going to a safe & quiet place. You obviously need to make signals that you acknowledge them (i.e put on your hazard lights) or call *77 like Lauren did.

Too bad the cell phone companies don't generally give you this little bit of wonderful information!

*Speaking to a service representative at Bell Mobility confirmed that *77 was a direct link to state trooper info. So, now it's your turn to let your friends know about *77.

SEND THIS TO EVERY WOMAN (AND PERSON) YOU KNOW; IT MAY SAVE A LIFE.

that the Iraq war is about fighting terrorism or promoting democracy? Okay, so you're sick of hearing that the Iraq war is about oil. Too bad. The truth is the truth, even if it's not popular with Bush supporters. If you really want to know what this war is about, click on the link below.

Reference last week's debate - how many times was Reagan's name used in complimentary terms versus GW Bush's. What does that tell you about his policies and potential legacy? Does his legacy have a chance when his own party is treating him like a pariah?

Six "Islamic radicals" involved in a plot to kill U.S. soldiers at Fort Dix in New Jersey were arrested Monday night, the U.S. Attorney's Office in New Jersey said Tuesday.

One of the suspects was born in Jordan, another in Turkey, the U.S. Attorney's Office said. The rest are believed to be Yugoslavian, "either U.S. citizens or living illegally in the United States," the office said in a statement.

"Their alleged intention was to conduct an armed assault on the army base and to kill as many soldiers as possible," according to the statement.

The six are expected to appear in U.S. District Court in Camden on Tuesday afternoon, the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a statement.

"Can we please just kill all muslims to end the threat, what will it take for the idiots to wake the hell up"

With the arrest of the 6 Islamic radicals who wanted to attack Fort Dix. So now the WMD argument was wrong, the Yellowcake argument was wrong, the 9/11 connection was false, and fighting terrorists there so we don't have to fight them here is a BS argument. So why again are we still sitting in the middle of a civil war in Iraq that even General Petraus admits will need a political solution, and not a Military one?

You get a sense that they all receive the same daily email from the conservative underground with today's with a listing of today's posting questions. There must be a 15 year old Conservative Supreme Commander in their ranks, because they all use the same juvenile jargon... lieberals, libtard, libturds, HUSSEIN Obama, Hitlery.

Us proud and noble dems soundly put you paid con posters in your places during the old days of the Yahoo message boards attached to news stories. During that time, we fully represented the sentiment of the country, defeating you on those boards ... just as you were defeated in November, 2006.

The sentiment of this country hasn't changed. We have your number and your swiftboating schemes don't work anymore. In spite of your juvenile paid posters ... America is continually awakening to see who you really are ... we will pay you another little visit in November, 2008. See you then.

I'm asking this question in response to an answer I was given on the last question that I asked. I had never REALLY thought about it before, although I am well aware that at least the majority of Bush's supporters are Christians (considering 80% of Americans consider themselves Christians) but I had never thought about other religions being supporters of his.

I would like to know from your personal experience if you or anyone else you know is a non-Christian who supports the war and/or Bush.

I am not a Christian, I know people of many faiths but none of them support the Iraqi Conflict. I am not trying to put down Christians, please don't read the wrong idea into my question.
My entire family is Christian and they all have different opinions on the war, and although I disagree with some they are entitled to their own opinions.

So the only question I am asking is "Do you personally know a non-Christian who is pro-Bush and/or supports the war?"

Thank you.

My previous post was "garbled", as one post complainted. Very well. I certainly can remake it.

In light of spinach and other food poisonings unresolved before the messive pet food recall, it is likely FDA is covering up by pointing to Melanine produced in China. As a matter of fact, melamine toxicity has caused NO death. So FDA is swtching to Cough Syrup Scare now ? Using another country to inflame racial hatred against Chinese?

Or has Bush ordered a go-head to his aid to lauch divert campaign from Iraq?
