I have an F1 visa, and I just received my H1B visa. I am applying for permanent residency, but I want to keep my F1 visa in case there is a problem with my H1B before my permanent residency is approved. Can I do this? Please advise.

you know what is happening? I don't know the psychological word for it, but there has got to be a word for when you start at point A and the people would never go along with or accept something, but you slowly but surely over time (say 7 years later) subltly get them to accept things so far different from what they would have accepted at the beginning of the seven years. So that 7 years later news comes out about that this was done and that was done, and people just shrug their shoulers and resign themselves,whereas 7 years earlier they would have been up in arms.

its time folks, if we dont impeach these bozos, our country will have set the precedent for someone worst to come along in the future. Think about it, we really have not really faced a major crisis. Can you imagine what they could if we really do?

Bush accidentally gave out the wrong number Tuesday.

WASHINGTON (CNN) — Harried homeowners seeking mortgage relief from a new Bush administration hotline Thursday had to contend with a bit of temporary misdirection from the president himself.

As he announced his plan to ease the mortgage crisis for consumers, President Bush accidentally gave out the wrong phone number for the new “Hope Now Hotline” set up by his administration.

Anyone who dialed 1-800-995-HOPE did not reach the mortgage hotline but instead contacted the Freedom Christian Academy — a Texas-based group that provides Christian education home schooling material.

The White House press office quickly put out a correction moments after the President’s remarks. After dialing the correct number, 1-888-995-HOPE, CNN was connected to a “counselor” within three minutes.

The chimp is beyond embarrassing at this point.

If the gun is to be blamed for crimes and deaths around the world we should also:
Remove all those people from the Hall of fame and just leave the baseball bat, the foot ball, tennis racket, soccer ball, boxing gloves etc. etc. why are we inducting the person and not their equipment into the hall of fame?

In my opinion, is not the bat, but the batter that deserves the credit and at the same time, is not the gun but person that also deserves the “credit”……Common sense!

It has been said that Bush has done this without conulting the congress the house or the voters...supposedly it is all part of the New World Order and the american dollar will be dicontinued and the currency will be called the Amero (like the Euro) and also it is implied that we will all be required to have a micro chip and that all monies and such will be on the chip and if we don't follow the "rules" they set down our chips will be cut off leaving us with no way to get food or housing or anything else that money can provide us with now...scarry!

Remember the case a few years ago where the City of Berkely, in California, went to court to force the Boy Scouts to accept openly gay scout leaders? Surprise! The lead plaintiff in the case was charged yesterday with sexually molesting at least four of the boys in the Sea Scout program, over a several year period. The police have announced that a 'significant' number of additional charges will be added once some of the boys in the big stash of gay child porn they found in his computer have been identified.

Would you have "jumped ship" during the American Revolution because we had a "snowballs chance in hell"
Would you have run from fighting Hitler because he had a bigger army?
Would you have abandoned Arragorn, Gandalf, and Frodo seeing as they had no chance?
Would you have ran away from Luke, Han Solo, and Chewy because they were outnumbered?

I have never met her...so will not make a judgement call on like or dislike.

I do know she is very intelligent, and from her youngest days, she has always wanted to be in public service, many of her writings and thesis from school was about how to make the country a better place, public service, etc...

To me, this is refreshing...to have a candidate with a plan and with intelligence...quite different from our current president.

While I may not agree with Hillary's ideas...I am pleased that she at least has some....

Will I vote for her, depends on who runs against her...I do hope however, the ultra-religious conservative Christian right gets booted out of the Republican party...so that the two parties can discuss issues that matters and not social concerns....

protecting our country, balancing our budget, reeling in illegal immigration...I hope these are issues that are governed rather than abortion and gay rights.

Your thoughts?

Isn't the central point of the 2nd amendment that we should be able to defend ourselves against a tyranical government? A 9mm isn't going to do much against a US Army tank.
