I wonder how much the skull and bones yongsters by that guy to come there. What a crock, they hollered at the minutemen and then to save face that guy gets up there and insults the guy, what a joke. All staged to make America look bad.

I still think they should let her come over and jump start her career. There is a Arab person that asked a questin and I asked him, so I will get back and let you know what he thinks about it. If she dones get to go won't they have to let Little Pimp go or be branded as racist? Could you see those preachers over there watching Mick and the Stones jumping around? Sean Penn could MC. Rosie could warm the crowd up with Bush jokes. jTake care.

The Polls suggest she is extremely popular with a lot of Americans:
http://www.presidentelectionpolls.com/
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/us/democratic_presidential_nomination-191.html

This suggests this site is not representative of US attitudes generally.

The violence of the language used by Hillary-haters surprises me.

WASHINGTON -- Republican presidential candidate Tom Tancredo wants foreigners seeking visas to join relatives in the U.S. to provide DNA samples to prove their family ties.

The Colorado congressman introduced a bill Tuesday in the House to require the tests, saying documents provided by immigrants to show they are related to U.S. citizens or permanent residents are sometimes sketchy and unreliable.

''This will help protect the integrity of our immigration system,'' said Tancredo, who has based his presidential campaign on curbing immigration. ``It will give us one more tool to make sure that the beneficiaries of these visas are who they say they are.''

Immigrants would pay for the DNA costs through visa application fees under the proposal.

Earlier this month, France's Senate passed an immigration bill that would allow consular officers to request DNA samples from immigrants wanting to join families there.

The U.S. allows spouses, children, parents and siblings of U.S. citizens and spouses and children of permanent residents to apply for visas and green cards to join their relatives in the United States. http://www.miamiherald.com/campaign08/story/273835.html
Medical testing was good enough for our grandparents and great grandparents, it should be a priority with those sneaking in and caught. No one mentions the diseases that are coming in from other countries and the multitudes filling our emergency rooms that we’re paying for. Next, we can discuss how many terrorists have also walked across our borders and are here awaiting orders.

Personally, I think the USA should dismantle all of their nuclear weapons. We could set an example for all of the other nuclear armed countries in the world. I do not think we should spend $25billion to construct better nuclear weapons. What do nuclear weapons defend us from? I think they just annihilate societies and extinct animals unlike nonnuclear weapons.

Guy A owns a bakery. Guy B works at the bakery. Guy C offers guy B money for a recipe so he can make the food from the bakery and sell it somewhere else without Guy A's permission. Is it a crime just to make that offer? Can Guy A press charges on Guy C?

I am a submissive white male, and I have a strong feeling of inferiority to, and worship for, Mexican women.
Whenever I see a Mexican woman, I have a strong and almost uncontrollable desire to kneel down and kiss their shoes.
I would even be honored to be their doormat if they needed one. I was wondering what I should do.

They say most Mexican women are more on the "submissive" side, so I don't think they will ever allow a white guy like me to even kiss their shoes.
What if I seen a Mexican woman, and voluntarily came up, knelt and bowed down, and kissed her shoes? Would this be something illegal, and would I get some kind of harassment charges? Do you think a Mexican woman would realize and be pleased that she is respected or worshiped? Any suggestions on how I can show a Mexican woman proper adoration, without over-stepping any boundaries?

Her husband died at the age of 43 (very suddenly) and he used to do everything. After he died, she got a flier on the door advertising a window washing service for a set price and hired the guy to do just that (which he still has never done). After she hired him for that he offered to do many more things around the house that really needed to be done, such as fixing up their yard and various other small jobs. Then he started offering to do such things as "renovate" her bathrooms, which desperately need work... Unfortunately, she didn't write up or sign any kind of contract outlining work, quality of materials, etc...but I've seen the quality of work the guy has done and he's ripping her off. I can tell he has no experience or skill whatsoever concerning most of the stuff he's agreed to do. Also, she has paid him for jobs that, to date, have not been done. Does she have any kind of legal recourse? I can provide more details if needed, please email me, I really want to help her.

Today's news reported that FEMA held a phony news conference with FEMA employees posing as reporters feeding soft ball questions to a FEMA PR manager.
What twisted, convoluted logic are you stalwart Bushies going to use now to justify this outrageous insult to the American people? Let's see how many of these clowns are fired, and better yet who knew of it and who had the authority to allow it to take place?

A University of Wisconsin System regent has quit because he's upset over how the governor has treated illegal immigrants.

Jesus Salas sent his resignation letter Friday morning as Gov. Jim Doyle signed the new two-year state budget. Salas accused Doyle in his letter of not fighting hard enough for a budget provision that would have let illegal immigrants who graduate from Wisconsin high schools pay in-state tuition. Lawmakers stripped the measure from the document.

Salas went on to say he's angry with Doyle for signing laws that require proof of citizenship to get a driver's license and prohibit illegal immigrants from getting state-subsidized home loans.

"In spite of the fact that Latinos share the same fundamental values that brought generation of European immigrants in the same manner to Wisconsin, it is only we who are 'illegal,''' he wrote. "Everyday there are those, individuals as well as representatives of communities as a whole, including state entities who are contriving ways to further deprive us of our US Constitutional rights to life and liberty.''http://www.startribune.com/462/story/1510388.html

“...Latinos share the same fundamental values that brought generation of European immigrants in the same manner to Wisconsin...”
“Huh? Could someone translate that gibberish for me?”

I think he means all those Swedes, Norwegians and Germans who were snuck in by Canadian “coyotes”

I kind of do. I kind of feel like they'll say what they have to say to get into office so that makes them less credible. I also feel like what an individual politician is saying might not really be his sentiments because I don't know if he actually wrote his speech or had someone do it for him. This, of course, doesn't mean that just because someone else writes the speech it's not approved by the politician, but I can imagine the speech writer adding something that sounds real good and the politician saying it because he knows it sounds good.
