Politics & Government - 18 October 2007

I have asked this questions in different forms but illegal aliens and pro-immigration folks refuse to answer this basic premise and that is the anglo American first made this country great and that Mexicans in Mexcio had the same opportunity but blew it. I contend that if you were to replace every anglo and black in the United States with illegal Mexicans that it two years or less it would look like the squalor of mexico. i am asking the illegal Mexican that comes here to give us credit for making this country so inviting to them.

And in 1 week Colbert's book sold almost double the amount of Coulter's book which has been out for several weeks now.

Is this a sign that political commentary from Coulter is outdated and irrelevant and nobody cares about her anymore?

During the 1980's, having been toppled by the Vietnamese forces, the Khmer Rouge, aided and abetted by the Thai military, the CIA and MI6, carried out a vicious and barbaric guerrilla war against a provisional government which was largely backed by many Cambodians. The strategy was known as 'bleeding the Vietnamese white' within the White House. Having been responsible for inflicting 1.8 million deaths, does providing support for as murderous a tyrant as Pol Pot constitute an act of evil?

No business pays taxes. In fact when it's all said and done, no successful business really pays for anything. Everything is paid for by the consumer.

Let's say that the material and labor to make a shoe costs $5. Yes the cobbler has to pay that up front but when he sells the shoe he gets reimbursed by the purchaser. If he made a good shoe he can get reimbursed more than it cost him to make the shoe which allows him to use the excess money to buy food.

The cobbler knows he needs $100/wk to eat. He also knows he can sell 5 pairs of shoes each week. Therefore he charges a mark up of $20 making the total $25/shoe.

Now, if the government decides to tax the cobbler $2/shoe, will the cobbler just try to get buy on $90/wk for food? No, instead he just raises his prices to $27/shoe and his customers pay for his taxes as well.

So instead of having high prices and high taxes, why not have low prices and no taxes?

It's obviously a conspiracy. I mean, our option is a woman? Now women are against black people? Since when do women think they can be the president of a country? Be realistic and get back in the kitchen. Do people really think Hillary stands a chance against my African-American brother?

Fed up with the illegal immigration problem, Do you accept what DORA THE EXPLORER does as far as helping to educate our children?
I am very fed up with ILLEGAL immigration, but have somehow managed to get past this issue to allow my kids to watch the show and have Dora the Explorer products..
Do you?
I'm asking because from what I understand Dora the Explorer originated in Mexico..and spanish is spoken on the program..

We requested San Diego and were given Virginia today.. I am devastated because my mother is in kidney rejection and throughout the next year I will be flying home often to get tested and eventually give her one of my kidneys.. Plane tickets are HALF the price when from San Diego so we have a valid reason to get it.

Who do I need to talk to to get our orders changed? I will do anything possible, please please help!

I requested from the manager clarification of the terms of lease renewal and cancellation. However, she only provided me with a copy of the terms of cancellation when I requested clarification. She verbally explained the terms of renewal but did show me or direct me to the portion of the agreement dealing with renewal. Now, a month later, I'm finding that I was supposed to give 60 days notice if I am not to renew my lease. Had the manager referred me to these terms when I requested clarification earlier, I would have been aware and sent in my letter of nonrenewal. I feel that her selective information sharing mislead me (it's a 15-page contract with 6-pt font stating the renewal agreement).

In Marxist societies, the public is continuously bombarded with ideological indoctrination through the media. This constant brainwashing to demonstrate that the ruling ideology is benevolent is a very good indication that the exact opposite is true. Political corectness is used to stop freedom of speech when it is offensive to certain groups. Political correctness has gone too far, & it threatens American society. It is the responsibility of the minorities to adjust to the majority, not the other way around. Political Correctness is Marxism, with all that implies: loss of freedom of expression, thought control, inversion of the traditional social order, & ultimately a totalitarian state.

If you love big government...move on from this question.

We currently have 50 States, each with it's own expensive government. We divide the country into 10 large states and dumping 40 state houses...a savings of 960 billion. We had small states because transportion to had to be with a 2 day riding distance to the capital...we've out grown the old system. We have 5 layers of gov, fed, state, county, city & twp....we cut that to Fed, State and City level...a savings of 850 billion yrly.

Of couse I have every detail figured...ask me and I'll tell you the answer. Under my plan, people who get SS money would increase by 23% (seniors) the deficts would be Zero in 3 years, taxes would be no more than 10%. Did you know that 83% of taxes is nothing but salaries & benifits

I know my plan is a radical move..I know many will critize..BUT take the time to "ASK" me a question and I'll answer right back!


It's time for REAL change now!

DNA Discoverer: Blacks Less Intelligent Than Whites
Thursday, October 18, 2007

By Paul Wagenseil

AP


DNA co-discoverer and Nobel Prize winner James D. Watson in June 2007.
One of the world's most eminent scientists has created a racial firestorm in Britain.

James D. Watson, 79, co-discoverer of the DNA helix and winner of the 1962 Nobel Prize in medicine, told the Sunday Times of London that he was "inherently gloomy about the prospect of Africa" because "all our social policies are based on the fact that their intelligence is the same as ours — whereas all the testing says not really."

He recognized that the prevailing belief was that all human groups are equal, but that "people who have to deal with black employees find this not true."

I want, the people all over the world knows this, Iran has nearly 70 milion people and at last half of them are agree with ahmedinajad's ideas. And there is 35 milion people disagree with him and I am one of them(disagree). Iran's people has experience an eight years longed war with Iraq and now after 18 years you can see the sights of war in Iran yet. So most of Iran's people like any body else on earth, loves peace and welfare. When most of countries boycotts Iran, in fact they are punishing the Iran's poeple, not Iran's government, unfortunately Iran's people living in a bad conditions, they are under the forces from Iran's government and foreign countries.
reliable people in Iran believes, they need more social service, health service, jobs and mental welfare and nulclear energy or weapon is not necessary. Please be honest, when most of countries boycotts giving food and drug, Transport system spare parts, education stuffs and too many others, Iran's government is punished or peop
