My first one is this. Arizona passes a law to enforce the laws that are already in place for immigration.
It is the feds responsibility to carry out these laws, but they aren't doing it are they? NOPE!!

So Arizona passes a law that says we will basically enforce the federal law for you, and then turn the people over to you for processing.

Now the feds...this admin...are saying.."well maybe we won't do anything with the people that Arizona refers to them". WTF is that?

Our immigration problem is beyond out of control!!

Next one: Coming soon, to a country near you!! Global Taxation!! Yep!! They've been trying for yrs to do things like this, and they have failed. But the mere fact they are going to create a "think tank" for this is disturbing.

This one failed, for now. But it is coming.

Funny i just watched a LIB say that she is all for border patrol(which is not just on the border Federal officers we have them in Fl) questioning someone for no reason except for the color of their skin (mexican)but that the Arizona law which gives people more protection than the Federal immigration law does is bad .... She seemed to have a problem getting that unless you are under arrest or in a car that has been stopped already for an infraction you wont be hassled :inoknow:

More genius from our great leaders!! The Dems used to dog the republicans for having "emergency" spendign bills to fund the wars in irag and Afghan. Always saying they were "hiding" the true cost from the taxpayers.

Well, well, well, after Obama promised to stop doing this, what do we have now?? Oh, and emergency spending bill!!

Ok, we can debate whether that is right or wrong. But since when does providing aid for another country become an emergency to us?? It is really getting old that they jsut add what they want to these "Emergency" bills because they don't face scrutiny. But his IMO is pathetic!!

"The bill includes money for the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, aid for Haiti earthquake relief and money for flood relief in Rhode Island and Tennessee.

Are you kidding me??

I just don't get how it can be against any rules/laws, any where in THIS country to fly OUR COUNTRY'S Flag, as long as it is flown as required!!

It should be illegal to fly any other countries flag except at places like embassies, business' etc.

If people are offended by OUR flag flying in OUR Country, then maybe they should leave!! This kind of stuff really pisses me off. People want to claim first amendment to be able to fly their Pakistani flag, or any country. Hell with them, go to Pakistan or where ever. Can you imagine trying to fly an American flag there?

Man, this pathetic woman is really what the crux of our nations problems are. To many people like this elected to our gov. So, by enforcing our laws on immigration, you are part of a white supremacist group? So our entire federal gov is then a white supremacist group, as the Az law is a mirror of it.

Just another way this administration is tilting laws, particularly the Heath Bill law, in the favor of liberal groups. WTF happened to equal treatment under laws? This new reg is completely unethical if not unlawful, particularly in favor of worthless unions.

"For the rule regarding whether people can keep their health plans – known as “grandfathering” in bureacratise – the Department of Health and Human Services ruled that for union-negotiated health plans, companies can change insurance providers but keep their essential plan details intact, or grandfathered. For non-union-negotiated plans, companies can’t change providers – they must stay with their same insurance provider."

So our own gov is going to file lawsuit against a state for enforcing the laws the feds are supposed to do!!
WTF!! " It is our job to enforce immigration, and we don't want to do it. How dare you try to trump us"

Un fuckin believable!!

And another!! Florida decides to cleanup or manage this oil spill mess to protect itself, and this admin says well then pay for it yourself, or wait until we can do it. That may not be the exact sit, but that is what it is doing. Pathetic!!

LOS ANGELES—Sliders, the science-fiction series that followed a group of adventurers who used a space-time wormhole to "slide" between parallel universes, ended its five-year run much too soon and with unresolved questions, show creator Robert Weiss said, unprompted, to literally nobody Tuesday.

Weiss, who spoke out loud for nearly four and a half hours as if there were other people in his general vicinity, noted that the series never had network support, and that seasons six and seven would have brought the Jerry O'Connell vehicle to a proper close.

Sliders was canceled in 2000.

"Two seasons—44 more episodes—that's all we needed," Weiss said as he sat alone in his Los Angeles home, his voice echoing off the living room walls. "So many threads were left hanging: Sure we know Quinn's mom is safe, but how safe? After Rembrandt injected himself with the virus, was he able to kill the Kromaggs?"

Weiss

"Another season also would have given us the chance to explore the fanatical religion of Slidology further," added Weiss, who was more than 600 yards away from the nearest human being. "Much further."

According to Weiss, who even gesticulated as if he were engaging another person in a face-to-face conversation, the producer could have used the extra seasons to return the show to its alternate-history roots. The former showrunner told his bathroom mirror reflection that he had ideas for parallel-reality episodes in which the atomic bomb has never been used, yo-yos are the primary form of entertainment, and the Ku Klux Klan is made up entirely of African-Americans.

"Allegory is a powerful method for examining society," Weiss said with no regard for the standard communication model in which a sender relays a message to a receiver. "If given the chance, me and the whole Sliders creative team would have loved to tackle 9/11. Some shows would have been too afraid to touch it. But not Sliders. We were fearless."

Weiss continued his uninterrupted monologue as he exited his house, got into his car, and drove to a Santa Monica diner and explained to nobody that with 2,000 additional minutes of airtime he could have finally revisited how Logan St. Clair lost touch with the gang after they switched timers in the season-three episode "Slide Like An Egyptian."

"It's a fickle business," said Weiss, an empty booth before him. "I was talking to [series cocreator] Tracy [Tormé] the other day and we already have a finale in mind. Imagine this: Quinn and Wade get married on a planet that can only sustain life for two more days. And the final shot is of our Sliders arriving through the gateway and we discover we were watching the other Sliders throughout the entire show. Awesome, right?"

Weiss then meandered through the Farmers Market, down Fairfax Avenue, and along the beach, his words often devolving into muttered sentence fragments, including, "Second Earth Prime? Could work," "Simple phone call and Jerry [O'Connell] would have come back for season six," and "Canceled? Fuck you, I'm canceled. You're canceled."

Records confirmed that, in the past seven years, Weiss is the only person to speak aloud about Sliders.

Standing at the edge of the Santa Monica Pier, with seagulls the closest living organisms capable of hearing him, the producer discussed a potential five-episode arc in which the Kromaggs successfully convince the Sliders that they never slid away from Earth Prime in the first place. He later refined the idea in a desolate downtown alleyway, telling some leaky water pipes that it might be better if just Quinn remembers sliding and the other don't.

"That could be good for dramatic tension. Hey, where am I? Anyway, Sliders was way ahead of its time," added Weiss, who later returned to his empty house, lay on his bed, and turned off his bedroom light. "The bottom line is that the fans deserve closure."

Experts Say Breakfast Now Sixth Most Important Meal Of The Day


WASHINGTON—A new report from the Food and Drug Administration has found that breakfast, once considered the most important meal of the day, has now slipped to sixth place, below brunch and just above midnight snack. "Significant gains by lunch and dessert badly damaged breakfast's standing in the late 1990s," culinary analyst Myron Jeffries said. "Add to that the blockbuster debut of second-breakfast in 2007 and a renewed interest in leftover-pizza pre-lunch, and breakfast is in a downward spiral it may never recover from. Especially considering the popularity of super-brunch." The makers of Eggo frozen waffles reportedly expressed no concern at the news, as waffle-dinner is still holding strong at No. 3.

So, an ex Secretary of State not only supports illegal immigrants, he employs them. Even if indirectly, he knows about it so is willfully breaking our laws, and flouting it. And this is ok how exactly?

I know if I posted on craigslist or sumthin I have illegals for hire, the gov would be knocking on me door in about 30 minutes. This is fucked up IMO.
