much it is 1.5 + 2.5, they cannot speak and write in English properly, they do not know much of geography, science and so on. Generally speaking, they are usually poorly skilled, however, they have great aspirations and demands. Therefore, I am not surprised their country needs so many people to do any useful job. Why is that, then, the people like those described above blame immigrants for everything what is going wrong in their country?

Dems, conservatives, lefties, righties, *all* politicians do not care about us. They don't really care about the people, they *all* want more for them and less for us. There is no such thing as a perfect system of government, if you give people it *will* be corrupt. Greed and self preservation is too powerful.

Every person in power or office is playing the same game, they are just using different strategies. In the case of the United States, our leaders are controlled by corporate owners who lobby, corporate owners pay the leaders to not care, it goes against their interest. it isn't going to change.

Dictators use fear mongering, Religious rulers employ God, we lobby. They don't care about us, they want the rich to get richer because they are the rich.

Can we get over this illusion, that our government cares about us? Please? Can we all agree on this at least?

1) Do you trust Ahmadinejad?

2) Do you believe ANYTHING he says?

3) How long do you think he can continue to lie about Irans involvement and their continued supply of weapons before the US literally b*tch slaps them silly?

There is always that person that you don't want to claim... that person who always screws up the interviews with pundits and makes your party look terrible...

I would say Al Sharpton or Geraldo Rivera would be my top picks... they get paid by Fox to represent "the liberal agenda" and most democrats just wish they'd shut up, I think.

Is this a sign that all the anti-war troop withdrawal talk has been political? A way to win votes?

Should P.E. be reinstituted in public schools coupled with recess and nutritional meals?

We used to have two recess periods and then we went on lock-down and P.E. was later defunded.

I do not know how many times I have heard of us being referred to as "Godless infidel's" in the media. While serving in Bahrain I have been in quite a few discussions with Muslims. Something they tell us to avoid actually. In our in brief one thing they stressed was that an expression of athiesm was far worse than showing any faith even if your religious views do not see eye to eye. A total lack of faith in a higher power is completely baffeling to middle eastern muslims.

Religon has been seperate from state since the founding fathers. Religion was still a major part of our society until after WWII. Since than laws have been passed that inhibit how we can express our faith in public. Yet we constantly portray hedonism in our media outlets. This is percieved as arrogant and self rightious without having any religon to support our rightiousness.

I hope you give him a silent wall of New York stare down and he goes nowhere.In fact I think you should all take a walk before he's due at the UN and Columbia so he can't leave his hotel except to go back to the airport.
I hope you make him feel about as welcome as a rattle snake in a wedding cake!

From Yahoo News -

"The candidates are walking a fine line. They are trying to tap into the deep discontent those voters feel about the state of the country without alienating any who hold Bush in high regard. At the same time, they have to counter the Democrats' powerful arguments for a new direction.

How candidates handle the 800-pound elephant in the room now could have implications beyond the primary. Privately, Republican strategists agree their nominee will lose next fall if the general election is a referendum on Bush. They say GOP candidates are wise to distance themselves from the president now, given his unpopularity among the public at large.

Bush holds the opposite view.

Asked last week whether he is an asset or a liability for Republican candidates, Bush replied: "Strong asset."

PS I'm not a liberal.

I'm not in support of Ahmadinejad, but it seems like this Ahmadinejad, this supposed terrorist, seems to be the reasonable in this situation. He wants to honor the victims killed in the 9/11 black op, and speaking to the US citizens, and obviously doesn't want war with the US. And we have BushFraud, the decideer, who lied about the war in WMD in Iraq, is alligned with war profiteering, no plan to win in Iraq, doesn't support the troops (long tours of duty) and now wants to attack a sovereign nation that poses no threat to the US. Who's the terrorist extremist here?

Here it is, the soon to be ex-husband is in jail for assult and battery and a few other things. The Protective Order states that he is to have no contact with the minor childern and the wife. Now,the childern have been getting letters from him and his parents have been reading them to the childern and has even been reading the one to the wife to the childern. I thought that the Protective order meant that he can't even write to them. Help me out if I am wrong here, but I thought that he isn't tp have any cantact, that even means writing to the childern and the wife.
