The great Constitution of the USA was written 'by the people, for the people'. When will the people of the UK finally get one too, or is this forbidden ?

Much like the Romans, illegal aliens pour across U.S. borders at the rate of eight to 10,000 per day. Another 4,100 legal immigrants step foot on American soil, 24/7 from 100 different countries. That equals two million and more annually. They’re pouring in so fast--our schools, infrastructure and language can not cope with their sheer numbers. Even more sobering, our environment cannot withstand the onslaught.Already at over 20 million illegals, our Congress, president and corporations sit in their insulated and isolated ‘luxury’ box seats in Washington, DC, while average Americans suffer the ‘body counts’What are the signs showing this horrendous hemorrhaging of America’s national sovereignty? Today, our Congress and president serve foreign constituents above US citizens with H-1B and L-1 visas that have given one million jobs to foreigners in India, China and Brazil. Our wages, standards of living and quality of life are being eroded. In 1965, we had 72 immigration lawyers. Today, 8,000 immigration lawyers serve illegal aliens by exploiting every means possible to block deportation. Congress has done nothing to stop the flow of illegals since 9/11. Citizens in California overwhelmingly passed Proposition 187 to stop giving schools, food, medical care and aid to illegal aliens--yet it was overturned by political elites. Outsourcing and off-shoring by our corporations shuttles millions of Americans into unemployment lines. Our national language is undermined by our own leaders who are forcing us to deal with 100 languages in our schools with illegal aliens who have no intention of assimilating into America as citizens. Thus, they promulgate a massive crisis of Balkanization that grows by the hour. We’re being forced into toleration of people, traditions and cultures that are at odds with America’s basic heartland values.

I couldn't watch the last bit, but I wondered how Bush or Blair would have behaved in the same context.
To those who wish to say that this is an old question, don't bother answering.

I have the 'honor' of spending a weekend in a hotel that carries only Fox News Channel. It's raining cats and dogs, I don't have anything to read, so I am watching their 'The Price of Freedom' and I cannot believe my ears.

IS Fox The ONLY News Channel on the PLANET that ridicules and actively opposes the very real danger of Climate Change?
The LEADING News Channel in the US?
Jeez, their audience must be idiots.
Are you one of them?
Why? Lost your marbles?

***Intelligent answers are appreciated***
You can tell me what I should take out, add, whatever, I am all for suggestions. By the way, it's long so if you don't feel like reading it, that's okay. But if something catches your eye and you want make a suggestion, that's fine by me. Thank you!

I started out with a preface
When I first read the assignment details I thought, Oh, great! This is probably going to be one the toughest assignments yet. Not because supporting Bush would be hard to persuade others to do, but because I knew how awful of a time I would have sifting through the hate-sites – veering away from anything containing morphed pictures and bad language. It’s just sad how often Bush is hammered by the press and how he is always the butt of jokes and cartoons, but yet he takes it, and doesn’t let it affect his job performance. What a classy guy!

Nowadays, the internet is such a biased place. It’s just not known as a reliable source...

They elect politicans that start wars, they elect politicians that lie, they elect politicians that will not give poor people health care, they elect politicians that let out jobs be shipped over seas. The only conclusion that can be drawn from this is they hate people and want to see them suffer.

1. Ties to china (illegal campaign contributions, selling secret missile technology they can use on us, Walmart-board/anti-US union)?
2. Ties to drug cartels/drug trade/illegals? (bill's drug-manuf./dealer pardons, pro-illegal voting, anti-border voting, photos ofher with drug cartel leaders).
3. Socialist agenda (Hillary-care and kidsfirst as programs to impose socialized healthcare and ultimately socialist government as described in her Wellesley thesis prescribing the imposition of socialism from teh top down).
4. Hiding documents from the archives, "offing" of many people who knew damaging information.
5. Planting questions at public forums, being "forgainst" on many issues.
6. Seemingly needing to out-do bill, marriage-of-ambition?
7. Blaming Bush for anything and everything, from a loose button to a cloudy sky.

Anything else?

It seems easy, as I write the question, that I should tell, but the information that was passed onto me, unsolictated, was of no huge consequence, and by telling the person, whose personal documents were looked at, I would cause much kerfuffle and animosity between the persons involved.
At the moment I feel "when in doubt, do nought".

The guilt of the President and the guilt of people in his administration is well-known and documented, so why do some people still lie and support the President by saying that Saddam had WMD? Do people enjoy lying and what can we, the people, do about other people lying?

I have heard a number of people blame "libs" for losing the war or for it going badly because they do not support it

The acusation seems to rely on the concept that Americans have no right to an opinion as to how when why and where the military is used

Is this correct - That in fact they have only the right to agree with the governments position and everything else is to be seen as a crime as treason etc

They hold a large voting block and can decide if you will win elections or not. Do you agree with their views? Do you think they should be allowed as an organized religious group to express their political affiliations?

I was reading the other day, that if you were to join the Marines, which I am planning on doing, that they could switch you from your choice of field and put you into infantry without your consent. I've never heard of that happening in any branch. Is this true? When I graduate from college, would they throw me into infantry with all of their money invested in my training?
