I have written a book that (I think) will be useful to professors of certain college courses (to use with their students).

The book is written. I can have it bound and copied easy enough (just a simple self-publish). I want to write a letter and send out sample copies of my book to college professors-- along with an invitation to purchase copies for their class.

How do I do this legally? Can I legally start copying my book and sending out these letters? Do I have to officially apply as a business somehow? What about taxes-- I suspect most books would be sold to out-of-state residents, but I cannot be sure.

What do I have to do?

Thanks in advance for any and all help.

For anyone out there concerned about illegal immigration, particularly criminal illegals, this site is a must visit. It takes just a minute or two to fill out the form and you're good to go. Let them know what you're able to do (even if it's just a phone call!).


I felt the need to post this after the terrible deaths of American citizens over the past few weeks at the hands of illegals. Here are few of those that died needlessly due to our open border policies.


Zina Linnik-12 years old

Killed by an immigrant who was supposed to be deported on rape and incest charges. The Department of Homeland In-Security, led by none other than open borders cronie Michael Chertoff, was supposed to deport him but he 'was overlooked'.




Joycelyn Gardiner-22 years old

The University of Tennessee student was killed in a car accident by an illegal alien who was driving drunk. Turns out this illegal alien had been in jail several times and had been convicted of four crimes in Nashville, TN alone! Another illegal alien that should have been deported, but wasn't.






These are just a few stories among many in the past few weeks. How many more have to die needlessly before our borders are secured?


God bless them and their families.


Here is how you can help and ensure that the dozens of lives lost recently to criminal aliens is not in vain.

I work at subway and whenever yor are short money in the cash register they take the money out of your check (Split it between who you work with). We never come up that short though. Every night we leave the register at $100, one night we had $319 even I droped $219 the person I was with made sure it was all in there attached it to the ticket and stuck it in the money bag (since our safe is broken and it would have been pointless to just slide it in there. The safe wont close so it just stays open. We left, and the next day the manager called me and said she was short $100 and that I only droped $119. Could I really be responsible for that since they don't have a working safe and I had a co-worker who saw me place the money in the bag, and she also counted it. Also are they able to take money out of your check at anytime when you are short.

Have you or your speech been curbed because you might be called a racist ?
The use of the word RACIST has been used as a very useful tactic to shut up the speech that they do not wan't to hear.
The typical WHITEY is so scared that he curls up in the corner and cries like a beaten down dog because he has let one word dominate his life.


P.S. I dont mean that people should spout off slurs just because, that is equally wrong.

Who would decide what's frivolous or not? When referring to medical malpractice suits, shouldn't it be our right to sue, if we weren't treated appropriately?

Do we owe any allegiance to England now ? They were more than happy to have the AIF & 2nd AIF doing their fighting in France, Africa and Gallipoli. But the moment Australia was threatened directly by Japan and bombed in Darwin, they refused to release our troops from fighting for them ! That left our National Guard and Militia between us and the Japs after the fall of Singapore before the US troops arrived after Pearl Harbour was bombed. Eventually our 2nd AIF was released from Africa to come to their Nations defence in New Gunea.

Knowing that the English thought we were "expendible" especially after our sacrifices for them in Europe and Africa, due we owe them any allegiance now ?????????????????

I just came across a question asking if your freedom had been affected by the patriot act. The asker and many answerers seemed to be of the opinion that because they had not been affected, everything was alright.
I remembered this German poem, I looked it up and here it is:

When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.

When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.

When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.

The updated version of this controversial documentary -- which takes you behind the walls of the U.S. government as CIA, Pentagon and Foreign Service experts address the government's reasons for launching the "preemptive" war on Iraq in 2003 -- includes almost 30 minutes of brand new footage. Paired with this title is director David O. Russell's controversial antiwar documentary, Soldiers Pay.

This movie should be watched as part of a double feature with F. 9/11. Where Moore's product delivers with flair (at times at the expense of substance), this film offers the subtantive factual support. Overall, this was an excellent product. The commentators used came from an intelligence background, giving weight to their opinions. Further, several commentators were used. The picture painted of Bush's decision to use the congressional authority to go to war is frightening, and sad. A true abuse of power is disclosed.

What this documentary has over every other on this topic is a dispassionate focus on incontrovertible facts: The Bush Administration wittingly lied about WMDs and their motives for invading Iraq and covered lies with more lies. The sober examination of facts by scores of CIA agents, weapons inspectors, governmental officials and others (including several Republicans) should cause bewilderment at the American publics willingness to either look the other way or, worse, believe neocon disinformation despite the truth. There is no reasonable evidence to support any Bush Administration claim or speculation regarding American policy in Iraq since September 2001, except for the fact that Iraq exists. Where Fahrenheit 9/11 is an entertaining overview intended for a wider audience, this is a must for anyone who is curious about what the experts (all disinterested and thoughtful) have to say. For those who call it one-sided: Truth often is one-sided.

I didn't need convincing that Bush and his cronies are liars and Imperialists. What I enjoyed about this movie is that there are more people like me that are willing to speak out, and that doens't make them unpatriotic or that they don't support their troops. It seems the Neo-Conservatives that try to shut down those that disagree are just hiding behind a convenient bumpersticker catch-phrase ("Support Our Troops") that has no merit. Of course we support them. We just question the validity of WHY they are there in the first place. (Which just changes with the seasons!) To me, it IS patriotic to express my freedom of speech, even if it disagrees with yours. Back to the film...Anyone still hanging onto Bush's lies about Iraq will never be convinced otherwise, so this film is not for them. They can live in happy ignorant bliss for all I care. I enjoyed it because it showed that there are many people in all branches of the government that question this administration's policies and are willing to hold them accountable.

A very thorough, well researched and well sourced (to the point of repetitive) documentary about the run up to and the aftermath of the George W. Bush's preemptive invasion of Iraq. I am pretty familiar with most of the lines of the argument...and the truth was clear to me even prior to the invasion. It was hard not to see what was happening while it happened with the blatant (to the point to idiotic) fearmongering being engaged in by the Administration to sell their war. Well, after what happened, by impression about the collective level of the intelligence of the American people dropped a few notches. Like Bush, they were either too stupid to figure out con job, or they were totally in on it themselves. The most infuriating aspect of all of this is how the dire consequences of this ill-fated adventure will affect the US down the line, while Bush and entire Administration (including paeons like Scooter Libby) will walk away totally scot free.

A stunning cast of characters' opinions regarding the road to Iraq. Spun??? Slanted??? Biased??? I don't know. However, I sure would like to see someone put together the other side of the debate as well as it has been done here.
