There are plenty of things to dislike about our government but the physical land of the USA and most of the people who live there are everything that is good and right on this earth. Do you think hating her will make her great again or make her represent the values you believe in? It won't, it will bury this nation. No one who lives in America can possibly say that's what they want because it will mean his/her life as well and all of ours who simply struggle to live and work and carve out a peaceful existence. i think you all are just frustrated because you can't reconcile the things that the elite politicians generate with your personal ideology of peace and fairness. but if want change you have to will it with love. you gotta LOVE this country and all the good she still represents and all that she could be. Alot of the ideas behind Liberalism are truly great, how did it become so distorted?

Blew himself up? Yeah, he dropped a live grenade and then reached down to pick it up. Boom! Just about what you would expect out of a Liberal war hero. Fits right in with Kerry's purple hearts.
Oh, by the way, Cleland freely admits that he caused the accident which injured him, at least he seems to be honest, more than I can say for most Democrats.

Why do people keep saying this? Do you guys know what an ITIN is? Illegals do pay taxes with this number. Also if an illegal wants to be legal they have to show prove they have been doing their taxes. Most Illegal immigrants have an ITIN to fill their taxes (they want to become legal one day) and even though they didnt had one, taxes are subtracted away from their pay checks. How many people do you think are getting pay under the table now this days (please provide proof)?
Also Illegals pay sale taxes, and also the buy things here. illegals dont steal you job, they take what we have left, what we dont want.


Illegals are just doing it for the LULZ.

I was seriously injured on the job. Collected BWC payments, they say I reached MMI, so now they have cut me off. My Dr will not release me to go back to work. Can I sue my employer for my permanent injuries? I had a spinal fusion. Now i have a metal plate in my neck, and constant pain. BWC agrees I will be in pain for the rest of my life, and have permanent restrictions. Any ideas? Please help before i go broke. Thanks

Is it just as stupid to say I love Indian people as to say I don't like Indian people? cause i be lovin some Indian people-from India. They are the immigrants we need, they flourish wherever they go in hard work and wealth and bring good businesses to the area. They make where they live in america better and don't try to create mini calcutta on the streets of LA.

How would the United States react if Britain decided it wanted to have an Empire again and somehow managed to obtain it?

Say places like Canada, Australia, New Zealand, African countries and India (that one would be hard to persuade...) again formed a globe-spanning empire?

What do you think the US would do?

Quick details, the company I work for is threatening a lawsuit against a client that I worked on and with who I have a great rapport and possible future career opportunities. The bad thing is that I think my company is in the wrong and would be setting myself up here. I am REALLY uncomfotable with having to testify and I am pretty darn sure I will be called. If I do, do I have to testify? Thanks!

I don't agree with some of the previous posters about partisian politics. I think this issue of anti-American liberalism needs to be addressed head on. Anti-American liberalism needs to be shamed and exposed for what it truly is..a failed politico/religious ideology that is endangering America's future. The democrat controlled congress only has an 11% approval rating and I think that winning the war in iraq will be a major turning point for America.

One can very reasonably compare the democrats to the Tory party in the revolutionary war. The Tories got themselves elected into major positions in congress and the senate and at every turn would promote horrible legislation that would weaken America in an effort to end America and return rule to our enemies( the british). They sided with our enemies every time and would try to weaken us from within at every chance they got. Sound familiar?
Eventually the tory ideology was defeated and they were removed from office.

The political party that is PREVENTING real positive change in America is the democrats. Nowhere is this more evident than in America's quest for Energy Independence.

The best thing that Bush has ever done in office is his Energy Independence policy. He actually has enacted an energy independence policy that really works. With his federal minimum biofuel standards and tax incentives for EVERY type of alternative energy, private industries are racing to provide the production facilities for the already proven technologies to substitute for oil. Being an insider in this business and talking with everyone involved in it I know there is ONE thing that is preventing the big institutional money from coming in to build the facilities necessary to provide energy independence.

The one thing preventing America from becoming energy independent is all of the alternative energy producers and institutional money are afraid that a democrat will be elected president and kill the industry before it begins. The institutional money is waiting on the sidelines to see what happens in this next election and it is a shame.

The reason the democrats are actionably opposed to energy independence is a mixture of extreme anti George Bushism(who champions the cause) and a insane hysteria about the environment.

The democrats are opposed to biomass to oil technologies, coal to oil technologies, increased domestic drilling, oil sands mining, nuclear power,cellulosic ethanol and butanol and biodiesel. They are even opposed to wind power often, because of the occasional bird that is killed. This is insanity!
The democrats idea of alternative energy is getting rid of coal fed electric plants when electricity is not the problem it is ISLAMIC AND THIRD WORLD FOREIGN OIL!

The republicans strong stance on national defense will actually enable American energy independence wheras the democrats will never accomplish this national priority.

Here is a good example, when bill clinton ran for president in 92' he campaigned on the energy independence ticket. When he was elected, America imported roughly 40% of its oil. By the end of his disgraced presidency America imported almost 60% of it's oil from foreign sources! Not only did he not lower oil imports he cut deals with terrorist nations and DRASTICALLY INCREASED our suicidal insane addiction to foreign oil!

The only way to create real,positive change in America is to elect the Republicans! With the strong national security platform WE WILL create real energy independence!
Only the republicans understand that energy independence is our biggest weapon against islamic terrorism!
Not only will we become energy independent we will export energy and render the middle eastern,russian and venezuelan oil worthless!

The only way to defeat islamic terrorism is through U.S. Energy Independence!

It's time for Americans to wake up and stop killing ourselves!!

You see the patterns

They have been attacking free speech and protests everywhere. They have been arresting people just for being near an area of a debate or a memorial. They arrested people just for being outside the Fox News building for crying out loud!

They hate that they can't keep us in the dark on real World issues! They hate the fact that the internet provides so many open discussions against Government tyrrany! They hate that we can spread the News about Whitehouse failure instantly. They hate the fact we can dig up the past on our Leaders and find out that they are not who they always say they are.

They hate that we can find out that many others feel the same way we do and that we "ARE" in greater numbers than we could have ever thought

It scares them that they can't keep a handle anymore on what everyone does or says. They hate the fact we can get real uncensored News!

They are going to try to kill free speech and the internet - a pattern is growing

A close friend of mine had a very interesting perceptive in regard to liberals. He explained that a Liberals goal is to keep minorities down (poor and uneducated) to prevent them from being in power. He also stated that they encourage young unwed minorities to continue to have kids and promise that the government will take care of them (welfare). One thing that really got me thinking was when he said, liberals say that they want minorities to be treated equally, but how come they don't want minorities living in their neighborhoods. I never saw things in that way before. Do you think there is any truth to this? Honest and unbiased opinions please.

Note: For the record, I have very strong liberal views.
