Have you told your representative in the House how you feel about it?

Mine is Tom Tancredo, we talked about it personally while shooting sporting clays one afternoon, I do not need to talk to him again, we agree on this issue.

Have you talked with your representative, do they truly know where you stand and how this pivotal issue will affect not only your life but the prospect of them ever being re-elected again.

I have found with the House, when you tell them straight up, this is a Go - No Go issue and it will decidely direct my vote in the next election, they have a tendency to listen.

The Senate believes they hold office for life. The House is not quite there yet, you can still influence them with your vote.

Tell them, tell them NOW, do not wait for this to pass the Senate, we can still have a small voice in AMerica, we just have to open our mouths and say NO!

According to the The New York Times, InfoUSA compiled and sold lists that disclosed the names of elderly men and women who would be likely to respond to unscrupulous scams.

InfoUSA sold lists to companies that were under investigation or closed down by courts because of their criminal activity. The company's internal emails show that employees were aware that the investigation for elderly fraud involved their customers, but sold the lists anyway.

Since he left office in 2001, former president Bill Clinton has been paid by $3.3 million by InfoUSA, that has been identified as a key provider of specially designed databases that have been sold to criminals who use the detailed information to defraud the unsuspecting elderly.

Last week, Hillary obtained an extension of time to file her financial disclosure statement which requires her to list not just the sources of Bill's income but exactly how much they paid him.

My guess is the Fairness Doctrine will be put in place immediately eliminating freedom of speech on radio stations.

Which one do you think they will take first?

Bill Clinton was known for creating bills that had a whole lot of spending scheduled for AFTER he left office.

That (1) stuck whoever followed him with spending and (2) allowed Clinton to deviously say, "Look at me. I have a surplus!"

Does anyone admire that approach of Clinton and the Dems?

Dems, don't bring Bush up here. We're talking about someone that you tell us should be able to stand on his own record. Will you defend him on his own merits? Or are you ashamed?

U.S. President George W. Bush says "Russia is not the enemy" and has nothing to fear from planned U.S. missile defense shield.- C.N.N.

Ironic how Russia provoked the USA with the same scenario with the Cuba crisis. Shouldn't America be equally understanding and not put missles in their backyard?

Seems Dubya made another blunder again without consulting with our allies (Russia) before making such an announcement. Go ahead Dubya keep screwing up our International relations with everyone and we will be totaly isolated from the world.

As an Englishman, it never ceases to amaze me how sophisticated the American sence of humour is.Many times on this site i have encounterd first hand how Americans use wit and charm to quash an argument instead of resorting to insults and childish name calling.
Hats off to you Americans

if USA think that it is ok to invdae and destory iraq as it wishes, why can't Iran invade USA and protect its freedom for the iranian people?

After all, USA has the biggest amount of weapons of mass destruction in the world, and it is the only country that had used nuclear weapons.

And just what makes her a coward the reader may ask?

Well,I know it's old news,but about a week before Barak Obama announced his decision to run,she(Or someone in her campaign)dropped what was thought to be a media bombshell-BARAK WAS RAISED MUSLIM-Ewww! Let's all shudder because he had some exposure to Islam for a brief time when he was a child in Sudan-Don'cha know!

I don't care for either of them,but she couldn't have announced the abject terror(No pun intended)she has of this man running against her more blatantly than if she had held up a sign that reads "OBAMA Rhymes with OSAMA!"

What a sorry excuse for a candidate!Neocon in lefty clothes...

So what are your thoughts?

Like any large undertaking you start small. I believe that we could over time deport almost the whole lot with all agencies working together. For example......have a detainment area that every time it get's to a busload of "inmates" the bus/plane drives/flies them to their home coutry and drops them off. Every time a policeman, border patrol, civilian, ANYONE finds an illegal it is reported and acted upon. They are transferred to the detainment area for deportation. So how long would it take? Not as long as you think if everyone REALLY complied. Within a couple short years there would be a LOT less illegals running around. And flags from foreign nations? Marches? flagrant abuse of our flag? Abuse of our country? These things would be a thing of the past VERY quickly. These people would not show their faces anymore because there would be a REAL threat of being picked up. Think about it.

I believe it is completely possible to deport the majority of them

[From 2001 to 2005, Mr. Cheney received “deferred salary payments” from Halliburton that far exceeded what taxpayers gave him. Mr. Cheney still holds hundreds of thousands of stock options that have ballooned by millions of dollars as Halliburton profited handsomely from the war in Iraq.]

Is it possible that profiting from war --either through expansion of powers or deepening of bank accounts-- might give one an incentive to promote a war?

I'm just asking. Just curious.

I'm-- uh, I'm doing a homework assignment . . . yeah, that's it. I'm doing a homework assignment in my mom's basement. You know us people who question the government, all live in our mom's basement, right?

I can sense that you may be getting emotional about this question. Are you sure you should respond?
