I'm still not clear as to the real reason why impeachment proceedings were brought against Bill Clinton- was it because he lied to Congress about a BJ? Okay, GW Bush has also lied MANY times to Congress-
Using the standards to justify the impeachment of Clinton- why hasn't Bush been impeached?

your own? I don't go on a march flying British or German flags... Why are you disrespecting the very country you want to accept you?

Same goes with calling us obscene names. Do you think calling us 'nazi-@$$holes' will make us change our minds and accept you into our homes?

Americans are so upset over this, and the politicians know it, that I don't think the bill will pass. Not only that, I think we have only begun to fight! I believe the government will have to act on the desires of the people sooner or later, and will actually start to enforce some of our present laws and build a border fence. Granted I am being hopeful but I can't help feeling something good will come out of this mess. You should never doubt the willpower and resolve of the American people. But we need to keep the pressure on, and continue with our e-mailing, phone calls, etc.

could I take him to court? I learned in my (one and only) law class that a verbal contract is legal as long as goods are under $500, I am not sure if cash is considered goods, but it was less than $500 ($325). This happened in the state where I reside, but since then (and it has only been a month or so, but our agreement for payback was 2 weeks ago) he has moved. also, we agreed on that date when the other person had a job which fell through. he now has a different job though, so you cant say I wont get the money if he doesnt have a job.

In Researching politicians, I have come to a discomforting conclusion that neither side, (republicans and democrats) can not come to a logical agreement on simple things, for example, the war on terrorism, terrible things we're happening over there before 9/11, ( as we we're shown in the Gulf War). Why we didn't stop saddam when we we're over there in the first place, I'm not sure.
What i'm confused about is why so many people are agianst the war in Iraq. I am aware the the 9/11 attacks were not planned by Iraqi terrorist, but intstead Suadi Terrorist. But does that have to matter? Even if we didn't find the infamous weapons of mass destruction (which i've read we have and haven't lol), Is America not contributing to a very great, and wonderful thing in the World? We are helping put a stop to terrorism, we are saving lives are we not? We are helping build a peaceful and safe place to live for millions of families? Sorry if this info is inaccurate, there are so much biased people.. :(

4. Permanent Jobs for Agricultural Workers. S. 1639 offers an especially sweet deal for illegal agricultural workers once they obtain their Z-A visas. In Section 622 (b), the bill states, "No alien granted a Z-A visa may be terminated from employment by any employer during the period of a Z-A visa except for just cause."

Employers who dare to fire newly legalized aliens holding Z-A visas would do so at their own peril. The bill would create yet another administrative court system to review complaints by Z-A agricultural workers "who allege that they have been terminated without just cause." If the administrative hearing officer finds that the alien has established reasonable cause to believe that he was fired without just cause, the alien and the former employer must enter binding arbitration proceedings supervised by an arbitrator whose fees are paid by taxpayers. The burden is on the employer to demonstrate by a preponderance of the evidence that he fired the alien for just cause. To give the alien yet another legal boost, this special administrative process is non-exclusive. In other words, the alien may sue the employer at the same time in state or federal court for damages if any relevant causes of action are available.

Conclusion

On top of an already complicated immigration court system, S. 1639 would layer a complex mix of parallel administrative courts with nebulous standards and vulnerabilities to fraud. This new system would be an immigration lawyer's playground. Absconders would see their cases reopened, and the addition of poorly drafted new statutory language to already voluminous immigration laws and regulations would make the Internal Revenue Code look simple.

Aside from the 12 million to 20 million illegal aliens who would receive amnesty, the biggest beneficiaries of this legal morass are the immigration lawyers who would bill millions of dollars representing their clients as the cases drag on. That is not entirely surprising, because the American Immigration Lawyers Association reportedly played a central role in drafting the Senate bill. It is also a natural consequence when a bill is drafted behind closed doors and shielded from the normal process of committee scrutiny.

Suppose some accused child is 10 years old. That child is of normal intelligence , good in studies, intelligently performs his day to day activities ;does it mean.....
that child can't be of immature understanding & can't take benefit of section 83 of Indian Penal Code???
Must some accused be of low I.Q. or of unsound mind or mentally retarded or Idiot or lunatic or mentally abnormal to take benefit of section 83 of IPC to prove immaturity of understanding???
So how maturity & level of understanding of that accused child of 10 yrs old, is decided to give him benefit of sec. 83 of IPC in India?

Dubya's domestic policy looks like democratic one: too much government control, too much spendings. Also, he wants to legalize illegal immigrants, just like leftists want to. Is he a closeted Democrat? He ought to be!

It is sad. I mean, really. We're talking about human life, with SOULS! GOD would not want this. Is this another reason why liberalism is a mental disorder? Abortion is murder. Babies are aware of pain while being aborted. Are liberals conscienceless? Liberals support taking guns away from legal, law abiding American citizens and being against war. Why can't they be for poor innocent little babies? Give them a chance. If you don't want to raise them, then just have them adopted. And don't give me this women's choice garbage. Murder is not a good choice. Support Life. (This is a man's perspective too.)

I was wondering what the regulations are for military uniform wear in the civilian world. I am mostly curious about the Navy. I have looked at some websites about the regulations but have not found exactly what I was looking for.

I have seen Army soldiers with their BDU's (I think) or some type of uniform at the mall. I was wondering if soldiers/sailors/airmen have to wear their uniforms or civilian clothing when at places like that. The regulations say they can wear civilian clothes. But why were those soldiers wearing a uniform?

Thanks!

Many of the undesirable traits of illegal aliens stem in large part from the simple fact that they are illegal. They use expensive emergency rooms because they lack insurance or are afraid a primary-care doctor might create a paper trail. They don't file tax returns because of the same fear, and they turn to welfare or other social services because their illegal status consigns them to lowest rung of the economy. We infantilized undocumented workers by relegating them to second-class status, and then we chastise them for being dependent on the nanny state.
I know it sounds counterintuitive, but with immigration, perhaps forgiving a crime may be the best way to restore law and order.
