TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - A 23-year-old Mexican woman with three American-born children, including one just three weeks old, will return voluntarily to Mexico after what supporters call a harrowing experience with authorities during a traffic stop.
Miriam Aviles-Reyes, an illegal immigrant, and the human rights group Derechos Humanos say a Tucson police officer was abusive and called the Border Patrol without necessary cause.Tucson police spokesmen deny the officer did anything wrong and say the officer was following departmental policy.
Aviles-Reyes went into labor during the traffic stop, and her husband, who was also an illegal immigrant, was deported immediately - before she could deliver her son the next day.Supporters of Aviles-Reyes say she was given the option of agreeing to a voluntary departure or facing a 10-year ban from entering the country.http://kvoa.com/Global/story.asp?S=7561444&nav=menu216_3

I live in Ohio and my boyfriend was in a car with our friend and our friend was driving without a license and got caught. I don't know what the consequences, if any, will be for my boyfriend. Does anybody know? We're minors.

Despite all attempts to demonize him over a BJ by resentful and hate filled Repubicans, Americans didn't buy it. Clinton left office with a 65% approval rating, the highest end-of-presidency rating of any President that came into office after World War II.

What do you think Bush will leave office with? Is the reason the Yahoo Republicans get so angry about Bill Clinton motivated by jealousy?

What if we were given a receipt that could be given to an official from the candidate you voted for? I know that would take a lot of effort, but if people were willing to validate or double check the polls, couldn't that help eliminate some the issues? I know that my solution has holes in it, but what could be a reasonable and effective method of proving that our votes weren't changed?

What does our U.S. Constitution say about using funds at the Federal level?

What should be funded with our tax dollars?

Certainly funding abortions is not one of them.

Funding special interest groups such as college funds for races is also not one of them either as the Constitution forbids racism and prejudism against people.

Financing foreign nations with our tax dollars is also not Constitutional. Giving foreign aid is different from policing a nation and forcing our government on them.

So what is the Federal government really supposed to finance besides our military?
