BUSH SET FOR IMMIGRATION SPEECH WHITE HOUSE President Bush is getting set for a prime-time speech on immigration tomorrow night. Aides note the 8 p-m, Eastern Time, speech will be the president's first from the Oval Office that does not involve Iraq and the war on terrorism. And they say that reflects Bush's "passion" on immigration. He's speaking as the Senate is poised to clear a compromise measure including his idea for a guest worker program. However, a rival House bill is limited to a border crackdown, and meshing the two won't be easy. Stand Up For America !

"We have room for but one flag, the American flag...
We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...
And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Home Depot Panders To Illegal Aliens
The Journal News

Maldonado, an immigrant who arrived from Ecuador nine years ago, still has trouble with English. He chooses to shop at Home Depot because he watches ads for the retailer in Spanish on cable TV and knows that when he visits a store he can find someone who will help him in his native language.

Home Depot, the second-largest retailer in the United States after Wal-Mart with annual sales of $81.5 billion, is making its biggest push yet to reach out to Hispanic shoppers

• The Atlanta-based retailer joined with Telemundo to create the first Spanish home improvement TV show, “Mi Primer Hogar” (”My First Home”).

• Bilingual signs are being rolled out in more than 800 stores.

• New culturally relevant products are being developed, including a line of paint called Colores Origenes (”Colors of my Origins”) with a palette designed to appeal to Hispanics.

• How-to clinics are being taught in English and Spanish.

• The Home Depot is partnering with national Hispanic organizations to recruit employees.

Yes, she does. Remember that movie, Two Men and a Baby?

Well, we've got 1 man and 12 ladies. : )

I'm so glad you said that....about the hate.

I've lived in Arizona in the past, for five years. I heard our compadres call gringas sluts, and gringos eunuchs.

Yet Bubba thinks that we can just build a bridge over such VAST, and I do mean VAST, cultural differences.

Stop and think about it: If States allow a "Dissolution of Marriage" based on "Irreconcilable Differences," how in the h-e-double toothpicks, does anyone one with the sense God gave little green apples, think we can surmount those vast cultural differences?

[Larousse2]

Boy cott!

[JustPiper]

We have 12 sisters and one brother ;)

Hey God didn't make the little green apples

I'm not gender-biased.

Let's roll:-)!

Whoa!

I saw something the other night on "Bible Codes" about 6-6-6, and June 6, 2006 is 6-06-06.

Facinating video from 1996 of a politcal discussion show called Full Disclosure. Guest is Georgie Anne Geyer. 30 minutes long but she saw this coming. If you have the time well worth it.

I would say the outcome, already ominous, is considerably worsened. : (

That particular web site does perpetuate hate.
If hate of any kind is printed, spoken daily at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, then like cancer, it starts to permeate the mind set. Hence hate towards man. Bosnia was a terrible classic example. Another good daily example is, in the Middle East, and how that same hate is spilled into the above mentioned web site, right here in our own backyards.

"If States allow a "Dissolution of Marriage" based on "Irreconcilable Differences,""

States can pass any marriage laws they want, because they won't ever affect me. My faith binds me from divorce. When I said my wedding vows in church, I meant it, not for a day, week, month, or a year...but until death do us part.

 

[Larousse2]

I agree with you. I was using a metaphor to try to illustrate that a dissolution of marriage is between two people. There are millions of people involved in these vast cultural diferrences...not two people, millions of people.

Partnering or pandering? Life is full of choices, Lowes is one of them!

Arabic influences on Mexico

Snip: I'm curious... exactly how much Arabic is there in Spanish? My teacher was telling me the other day that a great deal of Spanish actually comes from Arabic instead of from Latin.....

Activist Info - including e-mail addresses for letters to the editor...

Snip: This web page is intended to include the 150 U.S. newspapers with the largest circulation and the newspaper in each state with the largest circulation. In rural western states, many people read out-of-state newspapers from Chicago, Minneapolis, or Denver.

[Larousse2]

Thanks for reminding me.

Would you happen to know the Members of that Committee?

Someone posted it on another thread, and now I can't remember which thread it was...waaa-waaa.

[Smartass]

I can only speak for myself, and attempt to convey my own thoughts. I know exactly what your referring to though. Still, something has been disconnected between those two, that make up millions that want to adios their marriage.

Marriage between a man and woman has got to be more than a one night stand. It has to be taught as, a lifetime commitment of not only love; but mutual respect; of ups and downs, smooth and rough sailing; but above all, to be able to communicate to resolve differences. In my opine, if those concepts are not met, most marriages are doomed to early failure.

[Larousse2]

That is wonderful!

((((((((((((((((((Thank you so much!)))))))))))))))))

I wonder where we could get the listing of the corporate officers of the top 100 companies---Forbes, perhaps?

I think we could also send them a thought or two.
