#374, I would agree with jimmah that they can be released to his custody, but they must remain in his living room in his home in Plains Ga. If they are caught out of his home, they will be given to the townspeople to do what they want with them. Is that fair enough Jimmah?
How about this??
We have camps for obese kids that need to lose weight...we have camps for kids who misbehave..and their parents can't deal with them...
Let's put the obese kids working the fields and the landscaping...and put the troublemakers learning a craft by starting out at the bottom in construction???
Then the entry level pay is justified...no one has to support a family, and our obesity problem goes away..and hopefully, these troubled kids would learn a skill and learn to work well with others???
Problem solved...now we just need a fence. Hmmmmmm, I wonder who could build that??? Convicts!! LOL
I'm not following you. How does spewing anti military stuff keep him out of jail?
Not guilty because he's a crazy a$$.
I didn't know that, sleuth. I am beginning to despair. I think that is one of the worst things in a very bad piece of legislation.
Russert: Are Republicans upset with the Bush WH?
Russert: Is there anger among Republicans with the Bush WH?
Don't think he has to worry about getting charged with treason or anything else since NO ONE in this administration has shown a backbone & thrown down the gauntlet, challenging his motives & calling attention to his obvious anti-American actions.
Yeppers...I saw Orrin Hatch talking about it a couple of years ago, I think---maybe on Hannity and Colmes..and my jaw dropped...
It wasn't too long after that, that I found out MY state voted to do that HERE.
Considering that our state colleges and universities are so full, that a program that President Bush put into place, when he was Governor is having to stop from overcrowding, it makes NO SENSE...
The problem is all your camps would be filled with Democrats for the most part, and the chance of their learning much is limited.
I think it(Murtha's actions) are definitely a diversion tactic and I really don't think it matters much what the diversion is. If you look at his(Murtha's) background demagoging the military the way he does makes little sense. It's done more for dramatic theme and diversion effect IMHO. HIs constant harping about how terrible the war is keeps the topic of the day off what it should be, his deception and corruption in allotting defense contracts. Hopefully his day will come.
According to Sessions, the facts are that the USG spends $39 billion a year in EITC to 22 million households. He didn't say how many of those were to illegal aliens.
The point is that if the illegals become legal, they will be entitled to EITC given their low incomes and large families.
Issues come and go so I don't know if one thread would work. I'm still waiting for Able Danger information to come out so we can address what happened so it won't be repeated.
My guess is every candidate will be talking about illegal immigration for the next few months, unless something comes up that seems more important.
Now might also be the time to address why congress has representatives in it based on population, which includes illegal aliens? Should illegal aliens or green card holders be counted in the census, or should the census be restricted to citizens?
Here is the video of Murtha from this morning
Murtha Raises Possibility of Gen. Peter Paces Involvement In Haditha (VIDEO)

See? You cannot. They are merely making assumptions. I am merely making assumptions in this post. You like their assumptions and do not like mine so you "Believe" their guesses and tune out mine. That does NOT make the "guesses" on either side facts.
The Antis are stating their assumptions as facts. They are not facts, they are guesses. They are merely one side of the arguments guesses. It a logical fallacy to state estimtimates as facts. I object to this habit in Modern Politics of throwing around "factoids" as "proof" when they are not facts at all.
I heard the interview and felt at the time it was Rush really searching for why is the WH doing these things? He treated Tony like a close friend, almost brother sitting at the kitchen table, or in the fishing boat, asking for the low down. Of course 30 million eavesvdroppers where listening in. Rush is usually deferential to the likes of Cheney, Rumsfeld and other VIPs he gets to chat with on the EIB Network, but this was very personal and Rush had a lot on his mind he hoped to clarify. Tony seemed a bit taken aback, but did not flinch, although he had to fall back to the talking points, and reminded Rush he had to keep in mind that he speaks for the POTUS.
LOL...true, but maybe while they are their we can propagandize them into becoming conservatives.!!!
BTW...watching a GREAT special about Rummy on Fox right now...I have seen it before, but my husband hadn't seen it and is just now finding out Rummy's resume....quite impressive.
We're watching that too. Good program.
