why are we comparing ourselves to Canada or GB, or France.....we pay more than twice what they pay........

if we're shelling out that kind a dough, we should have a system that is far and away better than anyone else on the planet........but we have people dying on our emergency room floors, and patients being dumped on skid row,,,,,while doctors order C-sections because its more profitable for the hospitals

and lets not overlook the fact 60% of working Americans cannot afford healthcare--------AND 92% of all personal bankruptcies are the result of an illness of a family member or the wager earner of the family

This Man:

1st clue:
Wrote in an essay in 1998: Describing the consequences of a large attack on the WTC-"Like Pearl Harbor, this event would divide our past and future into a before and after. The United States might respond with draconian measures, scaling back civil liberties, allowing wider surveillance of citizens, detention of suspects, and use of deadly force."

2nd clue:
Was the primary author of the final draft of NSS 2002 which stated-"Given the goals of rogue states and terrorists, the United States can no longer rely on a reactive posture...We cannot let our enemies strike first...To forestall or prevent such hostile acts by our adversaries, the U.S. will, if necessary, act preemptively."

3rd clue:
He was in charge of the 9/11 Commission's investigation and set the agenda for what would or would not be considered as evidence and what questions would be addressed.

Hypothetically speaking if child who graduated kindergarten a year late and got held back in elementary school would they be allowed to go to school (High-School) after they turn 19. A minor argument was started in my house and i think they WILL allow them to attend , however my opponent thinks the opposite .


Thanks , Aaron

"I heard my father, mother and conservative pundits talk about the soviet union... and not only that we didn't like them, but WHY we didn't like them...
they said that the soviets didn't hold trials for their people... and that was wrong... and that the American way was to hold open, fair trials for everyone..." - Liberal rant

People who say things like that above think that we should treat non-citizens who attack our country the same as citizens. The rights of terrorists are their top priority. Protecting the country is secondary.

ok, my 1st careless driving ticket was issued three years ago and my 2nd careless driving ticket was issued two years ago. my current employer has to be able to insure me on their auto policy in order for me to keep my employment. however, their policies state that i cannot have (2) major offenses (yes, careless driving in their policy constitutes a major offense) or else i cannot be insured. so as of right now, my job is in jeopardy. my employer stated to me that i will need to try and get both tickets reduced to lesser offenses, but i'm not sure how or if it is even possible given the time differential. anyone with any thoughts, ideas, or suggestions would greatly be appreciated. my accidents occured in Otero county in Colorado. i currently reside in Pueblo, Colorado. I have already spoken to the the court clerk at Otero county courthouse and she stated to me that the county cannot help me on this matter, but maybe the state given the fact that time is not an issue.

I say that we shoud let them in... Immigration should be legal no matter the surcumstance. We stole this land that is now the United States. We stole it from the Native Americans, and from the Mexicans. Every U.S Citizen is an immigrant in a way. From england, Africa, Germany.. There is no American blood- It's just a name.

Listening to the news you would think it was Hamas that overthrew a legal Fatah Government in Gaza. Hamas is the legal elected government of all of Palestine.
Fatah, financed by the CIA and backed by Israeli Artillery and Airstrikes tried to overthrow the legal government.

I was driving not far behind a car the same color as mine. He was speeding. The highway patrol pulled up behind us, after the car in front of me slowed down. The officer I could tell was not sure who was the guilty party. I received the ticket. Is it worth going to court to challenge my citation?

Reading messages posted in spanish Forums in Univision (the most racist, antiamerican and pro-illegal agitator of the spanish media in the USA) somebody was asking for help to build a statue in Mexico City honoring senator Kennedy "como el mejor amigo de los inmigrantes ilegales en EEUU" (as the best friend of illegal inmigrants in the USA),.

What do You think about this?

What about the so called "Dream Act" that would give illegals who dodged the law for 5 years a FREE education? We can talk all day about how it pays to break the law if you are an illegal! When was the last time anyone in government ever offered an American a free education when they broke the law? Do you find this to be an outrage? Do you agree we should not stop making noise so the fat cats in Washington hear us loud and clear? What say you.....American?

Where? In a restaurant owned by an Iraqi family. What happened? He (Marine walked into the Restaurant) and was sitting down when an Iraqi waitress walked up to him and said "May I take your order". She smiled and said it again "May I take your order". The Marine's mouth started to quiver and his eys welled up with enough fluid to fill a lake and the Marine put his head down and cried like a baby. Why did the Marine do that? ( Note: Between sobs we heard him say "Why George"? Why?)
