, and all over the news?

Wouldn't the single instance of a "cover blown" or an "outing" be confined to a single instance?

Or are liberals on a witch hunt plastering her face all over television to try to tarnish people?

My son is with Special Forces in Iraq and he says they intercepted a secret message from Ai-Qaeda that said Osama died laughing when he heard Hillary was probably gonna be the next commander in chief. After all the help he got from Bill he was so extatic about the Hillary news , he died Laughing. He reportedly told his top luitenants that Al-Qeadas mission is now complete and nothing they could do would possibly be worse for America then Hillary. In his last official act, he declared the Jihad over and cave his commanders the keys to the beach house in Yemen. Allah Bless Hillary!!!!!

If people realized how pleasant a world without "diversity" could be, it would sink half the liberal agenda.

Of course, "diversity" in itself is a misnomer; I live in a primarily white city, and there is plenty of diversity. Much more so than when I lived in a racially mixed area.

Among my white neighbors are shop owners, professors, musicians, computer programmers, accountants, cops, ex-service people, and so on. Tons of diversity.

Do you feel the United Nations is a moral force for good in the world, and therefore America should be subservient to it and such international institutions as a world court?

1st AMENDMENT FREEDOM OF SPEECH
• The Patriot Act broadly expands the official definition of terrorism, so that many domestic groups that engage in nonviolent civil disobedience could very well find themselves labeled as terrorists.
• The Government may now prosecute librarians or keepers of any other records if they reveal that the government requested information on their clients or members in the course of an investigation. It has become a crime for these individuals to try to safeguard your privacy or to tell you that you are under investigation.


1st AMENDMENT FREEDOM OF ASSOCIATION
• Government agents may now monitor the First Amendment protected activities of religious and political institutions, and then infiltrate these groups with no suspicion of criminal activity. This is a return to domestic spying on law-abiding religious and political groups.
• You may now be the subject of a government investigation simply because of the political, activist, or advocacy groups you are involved in, or the statements you make within these groups.


1st AMENDMENT RIGHT TO ACCESS
GOVERNMENT INFORMATION
• A U.S. Department of Justice directive actively encourages federal, state, and local officials to resist and/or limit access to government records through Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests.
• The Government has conducted immigration hearings in secret behind closed doors. Such proceedings were once open to the public. Hundreds, if not thousands, of immigrants have already been deported in secret.


4th AMENDMENT FREEDOM FROM UNREASONABLE
SEARCHES &SEIZURES
• Law Enforcement authorities may now conduct secret searches and wiretaps in your home or office without showing “probable cause.” They need only to claim that intelligence gathering is “a significant purpose” of their intrusion, even when the primary goal is ordinary law enforcement. They may also monitor where and to whom you send and receive e-mail, or where you go on the Internet, recording every e-mail address and website you have been in contact with.
• Law Enforcement may now demand any personal records held by any source including your doctor, employer, accountant, or library. All they have to do is claim that it is related to an investigation into “terrorism.” The record keepers may not reveal that your records were provided to the government.
• Judicial oversight of secret searches has been effectively minimized. The Patriot Act directs judges to consent to secret searches based only on the Government’s assertion that a "significant” purpose of an investigation is gathering information related to “terrorism,” as the government defines it.


5th AMENDMENT RIGHT TO DUE PROCESS & FREEDOM FROM BEING HELD WITHOUT CHARGE
• Americans can now be jailed without a formal charge & without the right to confront the witnesses or evidence against them. American citizens are now being held in military jails without charge and without a clear path of appeal for their indefinite confinement.
• Hundreds of Arab, Muslim and South Asian men were rounded up in the Ashcroft raids following September 11, and held for weeks without charges until all were cleared of terrorism charges


6th AMENDMENT RIGHT TO LEGAL REPRESENTATION
• Hundreds of U.S. residents have been detained for months at a time, and denied access to the advice and advocacy of an attorney. The Government may now monitor conversations between attorneys & clients in federal jails.
• The Bush Administration filed papers in court that arguing that an American citizen held in a military jail without charge should be denied access to legal counsel because such access would interfere with the process of his interrogation.


6th AMENDMENT RIGHT TO A SPEEDY AND PUBLIC TRIAL
• The U.S. Government may now jail its residents and citizens indefinitely without charge & without a public trial.


8th AMENDMENT FREEDOM FROM CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENTS
• The U.S. Government has taken into custody individuals they identify as “material witnesses,” transported them across the country, and held them for months in solitary confinement without charge or contact with their family.
• According to the Justice Department’s own Inspector General, immigrant men rounded up in the Ashcroft raids following September 11 and held in the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, NY were subjected to a pattern of “physical and verbal abuse.”


14th AMENDMENT RIGHT TO EQUAL PROTECTION
• Over 82,000 men from Arab, Muslim and South Asian countries registered with the Government under the Special Registration program. Over 13,000 are now in deportation proceedings. None have been charged with terrorism.

He has been a stalwart on the war on terror but when it comes to personal attacks on himself he does not fight back or respond unlike Bill Clinton who shot back as soon as he was criticize.
To liberals I hope you are getting a clear picture of what happens when you appease your enemies they pour it on just like democrats have been doing since Bush became president I hope people see the parallel and this president has made his job more difficult by not fighting his domestic enemies like he doe s the foreign ones.

Proven you increase taxes on the wealthy for the benefit of the poor. This slows the economy and decreases available jobs creating an unemployment state. Why do you persist?

Proven you want to leave Iraq yet have no plan of departure that stabilizes the Middle East? What's your plan?

Proven you want us to "do something in Darfur" just like Amnesty International wanted us to "Do something" in Iraq in 2002 yet you turned rabid when everything became a challenge? What's your plan for recovery of Darfur?

You want zero environmental industrial base. Yet you want bio based products and all natural products whenever you turn around? How can you accomplish this?

These are just a few but the trend becomes a Kid's Christmas list and you are never satisified. You all want and demand more yet give and create the strategy less and less.

Many people label the PRC with 'Communism' and think that it is nothing but a devil and imagine that the non-democratic regime would rob everything from them .It is not the fact.
Under the principle of 'one China, two system', the PRC gov won't interfere with the self-govern of taiwan, which means, as a citizen in taiwan, there are no changes with your life.

The poster child, David Iglesias, should have been fired way before he was.

Is this yet another political witch hunt all on the taxpayers nickel? Why didn't the Republicans do this when they were in control, you know, attack the opponent with lies and deceits?
