Politics & Government - 25 July 2007

Could someone please give me a great reason as to why I should vote for Hillary. I don't know where she stands on the issues, sure she says one thing but does another. Do people realize that she is going to raise taxes when she's elected she said it herself in one of the past debates.

Personally, I always thought that polyester green uniform and the shirt underneath it was ugly as sin, but I also think this might make the Army look too much like the other services.
If you don't know what the current uniform looks like, here it is:

Here is the Dress Blue that will replace all dress uniforms:

Is it a good switch? Or, better yet, should we have gone back to the old WW2 Full Tan uniform?

Is it right to keep the borders open and allow people who have not been given permission to live here to come into our country and demand that our laws be changed?

Why is it wrong to call them illegals?

They are called illegals because they are DAILY breaking immigration laws.

Yet, Bush calls them "OUR FRIENDS."

So, Bush is a friend of law-breakers, right?

Should we grant amnesty to people who break the laws of the United States?

Do I have the right to enter your house (apartment or not) and start demanding my way?

Think about these questions and please reply.

If the fire is raging, why not just set a couple of hoses shooting rooster tails between the houses to protect them and let the house burn to ashes so the cleanup is easier?

I have been emailing my senators and Congressman as well as the leaders of the house and senate everyday with this message...

"Dear ______,

So did you start the IMPEACHMENT process today for Bush and Cheney? If not WHY NOT? Get your butt in gear...time is wasting and the Republic is in grave danger from enemies within!

Are you one of the enemies of the people or will you stand up for US? There is NO OTHER ISSUE you should even be thinking about right now. IMPEACHMENT FIRST or all your other "work" will be a total waste of time.

WARNING: If you don't get on this issue RIGHT NOW you can FORGET your career in politics...PERIOD! If you do not move forward with IMPEACHMENT NOW "we the people" will know you are nothing more than a bought and paid for corporate criminal and YOU may face a lawsuit.

DO YOUR JOB FOR THE PEOPLE!"



Will you grow some hair and join me in this email campaign?

They used to go after small stuff - like cars - one a week IRA

They used to create constant terror - on a small scale in order to destabalize a society

Now they seem obsessed with military styled attacks on planes - No other method just planes

Doesn't that seem odd to you ?

I am so sick of hearing what a great general that he was. He beat the union early, because of the idiots that they had running there army. If he would have listened to longstreet, and went around the union army, and got between them and washington, they could have fought meade on the ground of there choosing.Instead he sacrificed most of Pickets men on an ill conceived military maneaver.

why do candidates like Ralph Nader even bother to run for president? dont' they know what an enormous waste of time and money it is? nowadays, the president will either be a Republican or a Democrat, and nothing else, so why even bother, third party candidates don't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning

When you look at a typical Mexican, not the tiny small wealthy white Mexican bourgeoisie, they look just like north American Indians.

Native americans have more Anglos blood so they an look taller with lighter skin but still, they still look like mexicans.

I conclude that Mexicans can also be conciderate native and thus having the right to stay in California, territory that use to belong to them

He's 17 and a tender soul who has taken our local police academy youth camp and the "graduation" is a delightful choice of pepper spray or pepper foam.

I know, sounds barbaric. As his nervous mom, I am not thrilled with this, but as he picked the lock on the shakel I used to chain him to his bed I am over ruled.

He gets to choose so which do you think? I have already given him baby shampoo (our friend who is a cop said it can help) and a hose will be available.

Call me a wimp but I can't wait for tomorrow to be over with--his dad isn't too thrilled either.

Any experience with this, what can you tell me?

Thanks so much for your answers!

I know they were seperated on the Oposite Side of the Globe. But if they were both in their primes who would win in a war of these two Ancient superpowers

Han Dynasty reigned from 206 BC–220 AD

Roman Empire reigned from 44 BC - 476 AD

Who do you think would win in a war?...also which civilization was more impressive to you?

"Implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) began on January 1, 1994. This agreement will remove most barriers to trade and investment among the United States, Canada, and Mexico"

"It's not just American ports that are fast slipping into foreign ownership; it's highways, too. A Spanish company, Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A., has bought the right to operate a tollroad through Texas and collect tolls for the next 50 years."

"Called the Trans-Texas Corridor (TTC), on which construction is planned to begin next year, this highway would bisect Texas from its border with Mexico to Oklahoma. Hearings held by the Texas Department of Transportation this summer attracted hundreds of angry Texans."

be happy that Clinton was questioned under oath about his sex life? If Clinton had to respond to subpoenas about his affair with Lewinsky, why don't Bush's aides have to respond to the subpoenas about the attorney firings?

I'm not being flip; I'm curious why, in one case, it matters why the subpoenas were issued and in another, it doesn't. Could one of you rational Republicans explain this to me, please?
