I went to U.S.C. and I was amazed at all the FOREIGN students from various countries. Are we as Americans educating them with our EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM, just so that they can GO BACK to their country and use it AGAINST us ~ be it for profit, etc.

doing my part in saving the planet?

Cow's fart a lot... and this gas is exactly the gas that is causing "global warming"... C02... As a matter of fact... cows produce more C02 gas than our vehicles do. So... by eating them as much as possible I am ridding the world of these earth killing creatures... right?

Kind of a catch 22 for the PETA people huh?

If our government does nothing about people walking into the country by the millions . Sould that give the people the right to take action . We have a govenment that is failing the voice of the People .So does that give the right to the state and local law to take action .

Ok, I am tired of hearing about the "Witch Hunt" that many people on here claim Bill Clinton was a victim of.

Because 9 years seems to be too long for any of you to remember, Bill Clinton DID NOT get in trouble for having an affair.

Bill Clinton got in trouble because HE LIED UNDER OATH about the affair to the Supreme Court of the United States, because HE LIED UNDER OATH to Congress, and because HE LIED UNDER OATH to the American People.

Now what do you suppose would happen to you if you lied under oath in a court of law? You would be guilty of Perjury and sentenced to jail for up to 5 years.

If you ask me, Clinton got of EASY (no pun intended).

Ok so I have never done any illegal activity. Never gone to jail. I have a good permanent record. I am a smart student. I have never gotten an F, D, or C at the end of the year grades 1-7. I am in America since 4th grade. I focus on school really hard. Most of all, I really really want to stay in America. Like I said, Im smart. I was born in Europe, btw. I was a better speller than my 7th grade English teacher and she was born here. If necessary, I can pass any extra exams to stay in this country. What can I do? Right now, Im 13. I know that I have a future in America. I dont have a future in my old country. I dont like it. I love America. I love everything about it. People who were born here are so lucky. They should be honored and excited to stay here. What can I do once I hit 16?

.
Will they vote for Hillary Clinton or Barrack Obama , who both came out against gay marriage at the Gay Forum debate ?

Or will they vote for Rudy Giuliani or Mitt Romney who have actually said, they support gay marriage at some point in the past ?

and you get caught breaking it, are you liable for prosecution?
For instance, if I am going 60, but the speed limit drops across state lines to 50 but there is NO documentation of that, can I be pulled over?

An internal agency audit released today found that the Department of Justice spent more than $1.5 million on food and beverages at 10 conferences in 2005 and 2006.

At one reception during a law enforcement conference, the agency spent $60,000 on cotton candy, popcorn, caramel apples, ice cream and licorice. At another conference, two ``themed breaks'' featured ice cream and stadium food such as pretzels, hot dogs and Cracker Jack, and cost $42,000.

The reason I'm asking - Republicans always talk about minimizing Big Government Spending and lowering taxes... As a liberal Democrat, it is the one thing that I find to be most admirable about your party.

It is the so-called "do nothing" congress that ordered this audit and I would just like to know how you feel about that.

I received a phone call from someone and they said that if I didn't do what they wanted me to do ...they would slaughter me....and be happy to go to jail for fifteen years for it. The person also said that they would raise "he--" with my family if they did do what was wanted. I told them I was recording the call...which I did. Is this something I could go to the police about?

All active (including non combat deaths) military deaths, AVERAGED 938 deaths per year, under each year during Clinton's administration.

All active (INCLUDING COMBAT AND NON COMBAT DEATHS) military deaths AVERAGED 1465 deaths per year between 2001-2006 (as 2007 is not yet conclusive), which INCLUDES war time deaths.

How can the active military death rate not even double during war time?

Does this put things in perspective for the liberals who claim we should bring our troops home (retreat) because of the number of military deaths?

I just received an e-mail from a relative who has a friend who enlisted in the Army in May 2007. He was then deployed July 7, and was KIA on Sept. 5. Is this possible? Can the Army deploy someone SO QUICKLY? What happened to training? They think that 1 month of training is enough before shipping them off to war? Any Army vets, please tell me that this is a fabricated story. I mean, the story claims that this recruit DESPERATELY wanted to go to Iraq at the soonest time possible, but I thought Basic Training was longer than 1 month.

I hate that we are called "pro- illegal immigration" because I don't think most of us are, we merely want a comprehensive solution that is more humane and better thought out than our government usually provides.

Now, my question is this: Would you be so kind as to tell me if any of the following apply to you (as this has been posted many times before)

Are you illegal?
An "anchorbaby"?
Someone the is intimately involved or in love with an illegal?
Will you directly benefit from illegals being here?

I ask this because I am sick of the ignorant stereotypes that I see on here, and, some very rude gentleman just called another pro (and sweet kid) a Mexican Bimbo (though she is white). And, I have seen the above list here over and over. Perhaps I am wrong, but, I don't think many of us fall in those categories.

Thank God for Russia, who remember the brave struggle of their Serbian brothers against the Turkish invaders and the occupation by force of their ancestral lands. America could care less about Europe and Blair just went along with Clinton in getting Nato to bomb the Serbs.
Another piece of luck for the gallant Serbs is Chinese support, which is given because Tito was one of the first to recognise the PRC and - more importantly - because if the UN is allowed to separate Kosovo from Serbia, the way will be open to separate Taiwan, Tibet, Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang from the PRC.
I hope Gordon Brown will back away from Blair's position on Kosovo and that the USA will stop its meddling there too.

I know im a little late in asking this, but if Larry Craig wanted to get sex from that guy (undercover officer), where would they have done it? There are no special rooms at airports designed for having sex so where would they have both went? How could they have done it in the stall? There is a divider.
