during the next presidential debates?

For example:
I would like to know which candidates propose to close our borders.

What about that Patriot Act? Will they leave it as is, or allow us back our freedom?

I have many more, of course, but was wondering what your important questions would be and what would you like to hear asked.

Wouldn't it be wonderful is we could have the most popular questions here, asked during the next debates?

I figure that if Mexicans can do it here, why can't we do it there? I say we get a million US citizens together then head down to Mexico City and march through the streets demanding the right to live and work freely in Mexico. All of our signs will be in English (despite the fact that Mexicans speak Spanish and so won't understand them) and we will wave US flags. The point is to show the hypocrisy of it all: while the Mexican government wants the US government to bend over backwards for Mexicans in the US, Mexican immigration law is very strict. It is almost impossible to get a job working in Mexico unless it's something like an English teacher. Mexican police on the southern border with Guatemala treat illegal Guatemalan immigrants a lot worse than the American police treat their illegals. Non-Mexican citizens in Mexico can be deported instantly for making any political statement at all, no matter how small. In other words, Mexico needs to evaluate itself before yelling at us.

The USA constantly messes with other nations business and starts wars that are uneccesary.

Our evil foolish nation has the blood of over 2 million Vietnamese on its hands that will never wash off.

Our military is assigned to follow our Presidents over every cliff and die for nothing.....our wars ...BENEFIT our defense contractors alone and harm everyone else.

The USA is a pathetic nation that does more harm than good

The USA will be HUMILIATED in IRAQ because that is exactly what it deserves, as our war of revenge backfires in the face of that idiot G W Bushy

Suppose some surgeon by mistake forgets to remove a SWAB during operation from some patient's abdomen.
Few days after operation that patient dies because of sepsis & complications.
In that type of cases----''doctrine of res ipsa loquitur''---- applies very clearly.
So EVEN after the thing speaks for itself ;
must some plaintiff prove GROSSNESS of negligence or
wrong intention (Mens Rea) of that doctor;
beyond all reasonable doubts to make him CRIMINALLY liable in India??
And if that plaintiff fails to do so will court set that doctor free from charges of criminal negligence in India?

if an illegal immigrant asks for pardon, is there any chance that they can return to their country and with time gain a chance to enter legally? If so, how long must they reside in their country and what must take place? I would truly appreciate some valid info.

Americans say Bush is not honest and they disapprove of his handling of foreign policy and the war on terrorism
Who is not honest?
December 16, 1998
The president said Iraq's refusal to cooperate with U.N. weapons inspectors presented a threat to the entire world.
"Saddam (Hussein) must not be allowed to threaten his neighbors or the world with nuclear arms, poison gas or biological weapons," Clinton said.
Commission's investigation had uncovered no "evidence indicating that Iraq cooperated with al Qaeda in developing or carrying out any attacks against the United States," and no evidence of any "collaborative operational relationship."

Bill Clinton calls Iraq 'big mistake'
United States made a "big mistake" when it invaded Iraq, stoking the partisan debate back home over the war.

I was listening to the people calling in to C-Span this morning about whether or not they support the bill. A young girl called in and sounded like she was crying. She said that she loved being here and enjoyed going to school and having the opportunity to learn. She said that she wished that her brothers could be with her to learn to.

So here is my thought. Why don't we spend the money on helping to make it a little better for the people who need to go back by assisting them in building schools and hospitals - like we do in other third world countries. Maybe if we could find some compassion for those who are caught in the middle of this situation -we could begin to heal.

I for one do not want to make Mexico our enemy, but I also don't want them invading our country and corrupting it. How can we begin to repair the damage. Think about it. They escaped from a country that has nothing to offer them.

They don't belong in the USA -what happens when they return? Suggestion?

It is brainwashing. It convinces others that anyone against the war is "anti-American", which is so absurd and untrue as to be laughable. It convinces people that anyone who does not support the "shoot em all, kill em all" rhetoric is not a patriot. It makes Liberals, Democrats, Environmental Activists, Scientists, Animal Right Advocates, Humanists, Hippies, Homosexuals, Foreigners, Minorities, the blue collar working class, Catholics, Jews, Muslims, Pagans...look like they are crazy terrorists, or evil. It would be funny if if it weren't for all the ignorant people who actually believe this utter garbage.

Is that not completely ridiculous to you? Why buy into that kind of bald faced and obvious propaganda?

I know PLENTY of people like those I mentioned above who love America, who are glad to be citizens, and are generally very good people. I'm sure you do, too.

Your thoughts on the American War Machine Propaganda?

The man I live with is 62 years old and after retiring from his job about 6 month's ago he was asked to come back part time. He worked for this company for 5 years, and was an excellent employee-not one mark agaisnt him.
Monday he tripped over a mat that was to high to begin with, and other employee's were also complaining about this mat.
He slammed into a machine, and broke 5 ribs severly, and bruised his lung.Today it will be 4 days that he has been hospitized. He has now come down with a blood clot in his lung due to the injury. Due to his oxygen level falling to 50 % and his heartbeat out of control, he is now in the Intensive care unit.
The company has informed him that through work comp, he will recive 2/3 of his pay. They will also pay his medical bills, although he is retired Navy and has his own benefits. He is a very sick man at this time.
Will this company be liable for more than his wages?

So yeah has anyone else taken this test... I just finished it today for a CTI rate in the Navy. I scored 99/126, the LPO of classifing said that i needed a 100/126. On the CTI card it said that i needed a 95-99 for certain languages, and a 100 or above for another set of languages. Are there new rules for the DLAB or what?

Is this true? If so, why in the world does it make any difference? Like if I made out a postcard and messed up on the address, pulled it off, then glued it to a new postcard, why would that be illegal?
Not that it would stop me, but I'm just curious as to if there's any truth to it.
