    what happened to the daily 'bring them the fuck home NOW!!!!!' threads???

    oh, right, Obama was gonna be the most liberal president EVER
    don't compete; coexist

    what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?

    "I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama

    when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
    i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'

    Exactly. All you would ever hear before the election is:

    1. Bring the troops home NOW.
    2. The number of people killed today in Iraq.

    Apparently we are all now fine with leaving the troops over there and nobody is getting killed anymore.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    Reforming Immigration For America

    People will speak out no matter which administraion is in control, the question is whether they will listen or not.

    March for what? These people are not Americans they are here illegally. How can this even be called March for Americans? At least call it what it is “March for Illegal Aliens” who have come in this country illegally. There is a process already in place if a foreigner wants to become a American.....Reform is Unnecessary

    Call the march wharever you want but they have just as much right to protest against this administration like any other just like the Teabaggers have done as well. In 40 years the Hispanic popullation will be greater than those of whites in this country. So in one way another this immigration situation like many others will have to be dealth with, better now than later.

    Only racist and bigots call out a human by the color of there skin or ethnic heritage. You are talking skin color and heritage I am saying anyone that is here illegally broke the law and should
    go thru the process in place to become citizen, How can anyone disagree unless they themselves have no respect for the law?

    That makes about as much sense as your signature as to calling someone white is racist or bigoted way of calling a human. Then please do tell what it should be since you appear to be to know it all on what humans should be called. Yes we are all humans however in many cases and situations in THIS country one has to distinguish amongst our races....ex on job applications/home loans etc.

    It's simple those who are here illegally should be prosecuted and then deported from whence they came from. Those who are here legally have the right to protest/march for an immigration reform because for far too many years these people went unnoticed till illegal aliens became an epidemic. That's why in 40 years they will have the highest population in this country.
