Some people tried to tell me that AIDS is actually discriminatory towards poor people, not their ethnicity.

(I think it is a matter of choices people make [with some exceptions of course])

Could you explain these numbers if poverty is the target for AIDS contraction:

4.3 million American Indians in U.S. in 2003
36.4 million Blacks in U.S. in 2003

In 2002 (don't whine about the year difference) :
Estimated numbers of diagnosed cases of HIV/AIDS, by race/ethnicity:

White: 8,347
Black: 14,398
A-Indian 168

Multiply the American Indians by 9, to get a comparative figrure with Blacks: 1,512

Which means, Blacks have a rate of nearly 10 times that of American Indians, the most impoverished race in the country.

Also, Blacks make up 12% of the population, yet nearly double the rate of Whites regarding AIDS contraction. Are we to assume that there is not a large portion of impovershed Whites in this country?

I am a US citizen and am wanting to send for a sister in law that is in Colombia. My wife is on a 2 year visa applying for a permanent visa early next year. Would this be a long drawn out process or is it easier than many think?

Illegal aliens shouldn't be granted jobs, health care, access to schools. Americans would be glad to take the jobs (higher prices ...Americans would be happy to pay higher prices to insure that only legal residents and legal aliens held American jobs). So with that in mind, why should we grant amnesty?

Is he actually allowed to just refuse to turn over anything Congress asks for and claim Executive Privilege? If he has nothing to hide what is he afraid of? Isn't our government supposed to have a system or checks and balances to ensure there is no misdoings?

After watching televison this evening, I came to the realization that President Bush was in fact correct when he said he was a "uniter". Apparently 75% of the people in this country do feel the same way about him. I stand corrected. How about you?

I've always heard the saying that in colonial America that only "white, property owning christians" were allowed to vote. Was this a policy that was setup by individuals colonies or an agreement between all colonies? I can't find online any one defining document that states this was so for all of the colonies. Can someone help, a link to this information would be appreciated.

I was listening to the Republican Senator from Oklahoma on C-Span after the Immigration vote. He said the message from the American people was crystal clear on Immigration. First, concentrate on enforcing existing laws and border security, then move on to the undocumented worker problem. That sounds great. But, my question is... Why didn't the Republicans FIX the border security problem while they had total control for 6 years? It seems that 9/11 mandated tighter border security - but they waited until the Democrats had power to all of a sudden act on it.

What did he do to stop these attacks? Clinton had been out of office for nearly a year. Wasn't the Bush adminstration competent enough to deal with foreign and domestic threats?

Thank god it wasn't a nuclear attack.

I was wondering what other Christians thought about why I find myself to be conservative instead of liberal? I was wondering if there is such a thing as a liberal Christian, and if so how and why?
