I know I know he's suppose to be on Leno and he's gonna run some campaign commericals during the debate.

http://www.kxmc.com/News/Nation/159238.asp

But as a Presidential candidate, isn't it his duty to be there?

He's sure getting it easy huh?

If anyone else skipped the debates, would they be called a "chicken"?

He doesn't want to debate the so-called "2nd tier candidates"?

Cat got his tongue?

Staying away from potiential dangers while the CFR-controlled media helps his campaign out?

Avoiding the tough questions?

John Kerry did serve in Vietnam. Two tours of duty. If your ship is in dangerous waters you receive a ribbon. President Bush served none. His happy hour would not allow it. Clinton did not serve. Neither did Bill O'Reilly. They both spent time in England. The biggest hawk, (VP Cheney)of them all had five deferments granted to him. I had none. USMC. 1968-71

Let me know if you would or not folks. If you were getting deported, would you do it and do you know anyone who has? If so, tell me what the results were good or bad. What's the process of marrying anyway? Is there an interview that has to be taken?

That would let us put Federal Troops along the border as they came back from Iraq.
It would also make it very dangerous for illegal aliens trying to sneak in as they could be shot on sight.
I think the time has come.
Also, we need to increase greatly the number of ICE Officers in the country!
There are only 2,200!
We really need 100,000 for an effective internal enforcement.
We need to start s$#%hammering our Congressmen and Senators about this!
What do you think?

Does that excuse the actions of their precious left wing gods or does it work both ways Seems lately only the right does wrong, and condems the actions of their own But the left praises the so called libs Clinton, Byrd, Frank Jefferson and others It is the person and not the party Right?

The Germans & Irish they there were immigrates & came to Mexico for a new start life. In Mexican-American War, the Mexican Military made the Irish & Germans have there own Battalion. I think they called them (Saint Patrick's Battalion?) Just like the African-Americans have there own Battalion during the Civil War.

The government last week released its annual statistical report on poverty and household income. As usual, we -- meaning the public, the media and politicians -- missed a big part of the story. It is this: The stubborn persistence of poverty, at least as measured by the government, is increasingly a problem associated with immigration. As more poor Hispanics enter the country, poverty goes up. This is not complicated, but it is widely ignored.

The standard story is that poverty is stuck; superficially, the statistics support that. The poverty rate measures the share of Americans below the official poverty line, which in 2006 was $20,614 for a four-person household. Last year, the poverty rate was 12.3 percent, down slightly from 12.6 percent in 2005 but higher than the recent low, 11.3 percent in 2000. It was also higher than the 11.8 percent average for the 1970s. So the conventional wisdom seems amply corroborated.

It isn't. Look again at the numbers. In 2006, there were 36.5 million people in poverty. That's the figure that translates into the 12.3 percent poverty rate. In 1990, the population was smaller, and there were 33.6 million people in poverty, a rate of 13.5 percent. The increase from 1990 to 2006 was 2.9 million people (36.5 million minus 33.6 million). Hispanics accounted for all of the gain.http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/09/04/AR2007090401623.html?hpid=opinionsbox1


You have to be blind not to see this and to compound the problem, these immigrants will remain in poverty for generations. Hispanic girls are surpassing every other ethnic group in teenage and unwed pregnancy!!! They by and large do not take advantage of the education opportunities once here which means a high drop out rate. So once they get here, they remain illiterate and then have tons of kids, which by the way are AMERICAN CITIZENS.

I live in a border state,NM. There are alot of illegals here, and i personally know alot of them. (i used to work at a roofing company). What i want to know is how do so many of them just drive across the border, i mean i see sooooo many mexican license plates all over, I dont understand this. and yes i know most of them are illegal. So this obviously means they are not just sneaking across the border.

What do you think of this?
The US has a listening station in New Zealand in an area locally known as "Spy Valley" that was put in a few years ago that has all and every email sent to and from NZ going through it.they filter out any suspect emails containing key words and then moitor the sender and recipient...
Is this an infringment upon the public of a country outside the US that is of no threat to anyone...?

at the yearly speech from our principal at my school she stated that you cannot have a camera phone. later during questions about the speech i pointed out to her that most new cellphones have cameras and her answer was then you cant have a cell phone. Then she stated that it is a LAW in Wisconsin that YOU MAY NOT HAVE A CAMERA PHONE AT SCHOOL. Is this a Law or just a bunch of crap??? I need real and serious answers because i have a Motorola RAZR V3 and that is the only phone i have and i am not going to buy a new phone just for school. Also if you could provide a link to an OFFICIAL UNITED STATES OR WISCONSIN GOVERNMENT PAGE that you got this information from that would be great.

Okay, let's say that hypothetically, General Patreus reports that the surge turned out to be an utter failure. It didn't improve anything at all and only made things worse.

Would the Cut-And-Run-Crowd (refering to members of any and all parties who are for an immediate withdraw) use this is an example of why we should leave immediately? Of course they wolrd, who wouldn't?

Now, if any reasonable person would believe that, why, then, is this same crowd, who months earlier were damned sure that the Surge would not help, now saying that it's success apparent means nothing?

Do you consider it hypocrisy that some people would use the Surge's failure to further their point when it suits them but call it irrelevant when it doesn't?

I'd like moral/social/pragmatic arguments

Just because something is set out (and from what I've read in the constitution it may have been meant in a different context could someone straighten that out) in LAW does not make it right

Laws are reformed for a reason

An inability to see right and wrong beyond what is legal and illegal is indicative of a lack of moral development. I dont mean that to be insulting thats what psychologists and philosophers postulate.

It seems to me that if you dont have any guns, then you wouldnt need guns to defend yourself!!!! The US has startlingly high mortality rates from guns compared with other countries who have strict gun laws so clearly the system is breaking down somewhere.

What do you guys think?????


And please dont resort to making slurs about the country I live in or my intelligence like a lot of you did with my last question - that is not an argument and I find it insulting and immature.

Im honestly interested in your opinions.
