If illegals are dipping into the welfare monies, shouldn't the people that are legal be feeling the pinch? I don't see or hear any complaining from the large numbers of people already on wefare in this country!

Disguising of evangelicalism as creationism.
Indoctrination like in Jesus Camp.
Its absolutely scary what America is becoming from the inside out

Please post your views on this.
Genetic studies have found that the Romans left little to no genetic make on Britain.
The Saxons invaded England and mixed with the British population, with the population haveing a germanic streak but still remaining overwhelmingly British. Changing the genocide view.
The Vikings conquered parts of Eastern England and some of Scotland mixing with the Brits the about same amount as the Saxons had.
The Normans came of Admistrators and left the same mark as the Romans.
Thus the population until the last 200 years has been overwhelmingly British.
I have researched this with genetic testing and historical records.

So basically, should someone who is only 15 be given 60 years? Isn't that more like vengeance than it is justice?

I wanted to find out what my rights are as a consumer when it comes to the recipt checks that go on at locations like 'Sams Club, Wal-mar, Bestbuy, and Cosco' When I exit the store.
I would like to know if I have the right to refuse the person that will not let me exit until they check off my receipt. Is there anything thats related to the concept " that upon completing a 'trade' the items traded are now legally owned by the receiver of items received in the trade" And does that now give me rights similar to the forth amendment where I can refuse a search?

Why do so many right wingers have angry looking Avatars?

I'm not generalizing to the majority, but I was struck by how many of the really "out there" Limbaugh and O'reilly disciples have angry, scowling avatars.

You've had it your way for the last 7 years, why are you so angry?

Saddam Hussein was a ruthless dictator who allegedly had Weapons of Mass Destruction.

Iraq has a massive oil supply.

Kim Jong il is an even worse dictator who definitely has weapons of mass destruction because he was bragging about them the whole time he was developing them.

North Korea does not have a massive oil supply.
