We will definitely not travel like we have the last few summers! I have decided that this is the first practical way that our family can impact the usage of gas. We will stay much closer to home, use public transportation when we are in big cities and consider local air or long distance rail service. If all of us did this we could likely reduce consumption by a percentage that would make an impact. Of course, Congress or the President (yeah, that's likely) capping the price would certainly help -- except for the gas lines that would develope.

A search of news articles have essentially nothing linking the communist party, the socialist party and the democratic party. Yet a search of the blogosphere shows literally hundreds of articles with conclusive proof that the democratic party is run by the communists.

Why does the MSM not report on this? If the repubs ever joined up with anything extremist group (kkk, neo-nazis) it would be on the news on TV 24 hours a day, there would be demands for hearings and prosecutions and resignations, it would be non-stop.

Yet the communists takeover the Democratic Party and nothing is said. Why is that?

Do you believe the democrats in AMerica know about the democratic party and it being controlled by the communists?

Do you believe the democrats would bail if they knew the truth?
Why do the "dems" on Y!A get so nasty when you talk about the truth, that the dems are really communists, does the light of truth hurt them, what are they afraid of?

I just can't imagine why anyone (But Corporations and millionaires) would even consider voting republican. From the illegal Iraq war (We weren't attacked by Iraq on 911) to the deregulation of the main polluting industries, one of which happens to be the oil industry, of which Bush is a major player, having a lot of stock in such companies as Exxon, Mobil, and BP Petrolium, to calling the Constitution "A Godd*mned piece of paper*, to giving huge tax breaks to corporations, but not the average worker, to stealing OUR rights one by one.

I don't know about you, but the way I feel is that OUR country was FOUNDED on that "piece of paper". My grandfather fought for that piece of paper, and it is that very same piece of paprer that helped make Our country what it was. It's high time that "WE, The People" took back our country from the fat cat corporations who have bought our "selected officials", and made it possible for the state of Florida to disinfranchise the black, and poor voters!!

Lately the President has been refusing to sign any bills that have any removal schedule for our troops. These bills passed through the House and Congress every time. These bills are not the only ones to be subjected to outright refusal - regardless of what we as a people feel. The President has also moved troops into Iran, and has hired and spent exorbitant amounts of money on a private sector company of mercenaries called Blackwater. Do you feel as though you still have power as an individual in this democracy?

Bin Laden has stated that the reason he started his "Jihad" or "holy war" against the US was because of tens of 1000s of US troops residing on Saudi soil during the 1st Gulf war which ultimately led to his attack on the US on 9/11.

So was Ron Paul right?

They think that the government has no business taxing them to service the citizens or protecting the rights of minorities, women or non-Christians. I see them that way.

How do you see them?

he proposed agreement would allow illegal immigrants to come forward and obtain a probationary "Z visa" and — after paying fees and fines of up to $5,000 and returning to their home countries — ultimately try for permanent residency, which could take between eight and 13 years. The process couldn't begin until border security improvements and a high-tech worker identification program were completed.

A new temporary guest worker program would also have to wait until those so-called "triggers" had been activated. And all but the highest-skilled temporary workers would have to return home after work stints of two or three years, with barely any opportunity to apply for permanent legal status or ever become U.S. citizens.

maybe we have freedom to talk trash about the government, but i think that is it.... you can get sued for saying things, you can loose your job for saying things, and you can definatly get the crap beat out of you for saying things.....

i just found out there are illegal questions in job interviews, such as, "how old are you" or "are you a u.s. citizeen"

wtf man, we can´t even ask some basic questions, can´t express our opionons, we don´t have freedom of speech anymore.

what can we do about it?

With the Democrats pounding the White House Admin. and Republicans running for their lives in a serious way, do the republicans stand a chance of winning the 08 race without cheating this time (refering to 00' race).
And please dont bash me I considered to take both sides..there have been glorious republican days...but not with the current runs running.
