This woman tries to voice her opposition to the soiling of our Constitution, each time she speaks up, the Americans throw her in a prison. Do they think the world isn't watching?

If you believe in God, but do not believe that the Bible is TRUE, and has not been translated correctly, and is more of a man's word, and law, and story, rather than the word of God? If you are called into court to testify, should you have to swear on the Bible?
How can you swear to tell the truth, using a religious icon, that you do not believe is true?

Agents from U.S. Customs and Border Protection were assaulted by people throwing rocks Sunday during the arrest of two illegal immigrants near the U.S.-Mexico border in San Luis, Ariz.

The rocks failed to strike an agent, but one did shatter the window of a marked Border Patrol vehicle, according to Albert Bosco, public affairs specialist with CBP.

The federal organization reported Monday that its agents working in the Yuma sector have experienced a 43 percent increase in assaults between Oct. 1, 2006, and June 30. A total of 122 incidents were reported during the same period of last fiscal year, compared to this fiscal year's total of 174.

The rocking-throwing incident happened around noon Sunday after agents apprehended two people who had illegally entered the U.S. While agents were taking those people into custody, individuals on the Mexico side of the international boundary fence began throwing rocks toward the agents.

Bosco said the agents were able to leave the area before becoming injured or incurring more damage to their vehicle.

In an unrelated incident later Sunday evening, a trip for a Border Patrol agent to a San Luis gas station ended with the agent helping to nab a man who had allegedly just robbed a woman.

While the agent was fueling his vehicle, a woman approached screaming that she had just been robbed on Main Street, according to an agency news statement.

The agent eventually located the suspect and detained the man. The San Luis Police Department was called and took the suspect into custody.
Wow, they threw rocks? They must have had their feelings hurt in the first place, or they would NEVER have thrown rocks. I bet the BP aggravated them. Maybe they felt threatened. Perhaps the BP guys made faces. Maybe they had their feelings hurt.

Those guys should be getting Instant Amnesty and money from Johnny Sutton

What adjustments are you willing to make in your life so we can elliminate the "need" for the cheap labor done by illegal immigrants?

For example, paying more for produce in the market, cleaning your own house, or paying more for it to be done, willing to live in an older house since the cheap construction workers will be gone, etc. What are you willing to give up?

I personally have no problem paying more for products and services, since the idea of secure borders is important to me, and I also think the bottom line might not be that much worse, considering how much we pay out for illegals to have a free ride on so many aspects of life. I can pay more for lettuce and clean my own toilet if it means our country doesn't turn into a 3rd world country.

In the democratic debate tonight Mike Gravel brought up an interesting point in that all of the top-tier candidates such as Hillary Clinton are receiving contributions from CEO's of major cooperations, Bankers, media sponsors, well mostly people that have money and the power to influence the media. Seeing that these candidates are being backed by these people do you really believe that if and when they are elected they will be working in the best interests of these major contributors (Big Business) or do you truely believe they will have Average and poor Joe American in mind when they are making decisions? Why would some of these CEO's and big busnesses be interested in supporting a democrat who would idealy do very little to support big business. In the end however, it's just like Mike said if any of top tier candidates are elected you won't notice any changes.

By defination a liberal is the one who challenges the norm and a conservative who follows the norm. In 2000 election there was Gore who was for doing the same thing last three president did. Avoid wars, use diplomacy, save social security (remember the lockbox) and stuff. On the other hand here Bush was with some radical Ideas like investing social security, and big tax cuts and leave no child behind school vouchers. I mean those were not conservative ideas. Based on this point of if you could please tell me what makes Bush a conservative and Gore a liberal.

How does that make us, the US, look as a country of equality on the international playing field?

Mass crime and anarchy leading to exploding prisons and an over burdened welfare state in jail , that would ultimately double the taxes required to pay for all those jailers and courts etc - If you think tax is bad now because of welfare what do you think would happen to your taxes if you cut them off and 90 % ended up in jail ?

Or would they all collectively go "crap" now that the free rides over better get a job and fix this ?
