If the Constitution prohibits the government from endorsing religion, then why is the US financing Israel's fight to keep its Holy Land? We could finance a Jewish relocation to an equally desolate area such as Mexico, but they wouldn't go for RELIGIOUS reasons. Am I missing something here?

I believe....
In abortion on demand.
Capital punishment is barbaric but partial-birth-abortion is justifiable.
In same-sex marriage.
Higher taxes will help everyone.
Business and Capitalism create oppression and misery.
Only the Government can create prosperity.
Traditional gender roles are bad and un-natural.
Homosexual parades with drag-queens and trans-sexuals should be Constitutionally protected.
Manger scenes and public prayer should be illegal.
Children should be taught how to use a condom but not how to abstain.
That the same 4th-grade teacher who can't teach the children how to read should be the one teaching them about sex.
There was no Art before Federal funding and there can be none without it.
AIDS is spread by the lack of Federal funding.
Minorities can achieve anything (but only if they are helped by the Government.)
The National Rifle Association is bad because it supports certain parts of the Constitution.
The ACLU is good because it supports certain parts of the Constitution.

Let's just say their parents were put in prison for some reason, do they try to find a relative in the states or in the home country first? But what if the parents refuse to cooperate and give names of relatives? Does the child then become a citizen due to these circumstances or are they still an illegal?

...I know a good question or a good answer when I see one. The problem is that there are too few good questions or answers on this board anymore. People are trying to one-up each other by seeing who can be more insulting or hateful than the other. Some write anything that comes to mind, whether it's on topic or not, just to further their point gaming agendas. They whine when they get reported. I know there are good intelligent people that visit this board but they don't hang around very long after making a few posts and having to bear the insults of those that are too ignorant to put up a good argument with those they disagree with. I'm not blaming anyone in particular, people from all parties are guilty and I've been guilty of making some smart-*** remarks myself. But we have a whole year ahead of us before the elections of 2008. Can't we come up with something better than insults, mis-information, outright lies and weak accusations?

Lets say that you have an Imus or Kramer or Dog or whoever...

If you catch them saying a racial term and can provide a tape or 2 witnesses, how about this:

You call the cops and they bring over specially designed handcuffs. They will be slightly less restrictive than regular cuffs (longer chain in the middle) but will be designed to be tight and painful around the wrists.

We're not talking super-painful, just enough that it hurts pretty badly whenever they try to rotate their wrists (which naturally people will do).

They will get to go about their daily affairs to work and stuff, but will be in handcuffs that will hurt them while they are at work.

Like if they are in the office and typing, it will hurt them pretty bad and leave them with marked, sore wrists for weeks.

The handcuffs can then be taken off, and stiffer penalties will be imposed next time (like handcuffs for a month and having to keep the same shirt on).

I think this will be a great jail free solution

Over half the politicians during the Clinton days are making big buck as lobbyist. you hear a lot about lobbyist but do you know just what these people do? Lobbyist help corps, other countries and so many things that are rotten. they are paid well. dem, gop, businessmen, lobbyists, call them what you will, just know what their foremost motive is. it is not for the sake of ordinary americans. they are in position to do you great harm because it might enrich them. the will lobby or mexicans, people from brazil to help get braziliam frujit and crops in our stores. competition can improve things but not a tsnunami an endless wave taking the parents jobs and destroy millions of ordinary lives. the people a tier up laugh at those who are replaced. they have no sympathy or sense of brotherhood o anything. they are part of the sickness that will end ouir traditiona ways of life. the church, the local school maybe the language. the main point is that we didn't ask fpr this. stop it!!! damn them

What aspects of society depend on having this mystery solved? What parts will be effected if this mystery whether we are a product of our genes or of our experiences is solved. How could this potentially change out society and perspective?

We have to take Iran' s leadership at its word. We have to take Iran at its word when they say that they're going to attack Israel . . . and when they say they want to destroy us. There's something behind that.... This is a battle between good and evil, make no doubt about it!

This is my second posting of this question, so please forgive me for double posting (current events), but I want to get a wider range of answers.

I just saw on the news that Wesley Clark has endorsed Hillary Clinton. General Clark was my Commanding General at Ft. Irwin, California. Since that time, I have had such a great admiration and respect for him, but hearing this, I feel a bit deflated and let down.

Just curious as to your thoughts....
