I'm always amused when i see racism hidden behind the facade of respect for law and order,these very laws themself were driven by those with racist attitudes, i'm sure 50 years ago some people were saying ,"i'm not a racist i just believe tha law should be followed and that colored people should drink from separate water fountains and ride in the back of the bus"

"are we racists '?hmmm

HAVE YOU LOSE FAITH .

IN YOUR COUNTRY? OR THE GOVERMENT...WHY?

THE ANSWER ITS....

LIFE ITS A GIFT FROM GOD!!BUT WHEN TIME COME WOULD U BE READY?TO FACE(DEAD)

I BELIEVE WE ALL HAVE A CLOCK AND WHEN ITS TIME 2 GO I BE READY.R U ?

It is essencial that americans get over the idea  that we  can solve all the  world's problems  when  we have  shown little ability  to solve  our own

FIGHTING  DISEASE  AND IGNORANCE IS LAUDABLE ,TRYING TO STOP OTHER POPULATION FROM KILLING ONE ANOTHER IS IMPOSSIBLE,WE MUST DEAL WITH OUR OWN MASSIVE PROBLEMS IN HEALTH  CARE  EDUCATING OUR KIDS ,IMMIGRATION,POLLUTION,SEX PREDATOR,CORRUPTED POLITICIANS,JUDGES,RELIGION,RACIST,ETC ETC.

HMMM  PROBLEMS  HERE?NOOOOOOOOO

HERE IN WILLIAMSON COUNTY,WE COOPERATE  WITH  IMMIGRATION AUTHORITIES TO  ALLOW   THE CAGING OF  WOMAN  AND CHILDREN .

THE PROBLEM IS, SOME OF US THINK LOCKING UP CHILDREN,EVEN  TODDLERS,IS OK ,YES BABIES  BEHIND BARS, REP.JOHN CARTER  SAY  THAT  THE RESIDENTS  AT THE   T.DON HUTTO FAMILY  RESIDENTIAL  FACILITY, GET HUMANE TREATMENT, SOUND LIKE HE'S TALKING  ABOUT DOGS AND CATS IN AN ANIMAL SHELTER,  NEVER  IN OUR HISTORY HAVE WE INCARCERATED LITTLE CHILDREN, MUCH LESS BABIES,WHAT IS HAPPENING TO COARSEN US SO MUCH THAT WE DON'T REACT WITH OUTRAGE?????????????.

HMMMM HEAVEN WAITING 4 U?

If the goverment  really does care about its people ,why does it not listen? why does it not enact an across -the -board  interest rate reduction on credit  card debt?,,why does it not close our borders to illigal immigrants?  why is horse slaughter legal, drilling in protect lands encouraged  and urban sprawl unchecked?  why does our goverment continue to defy the will of the american people,without consequence?

DO OUR GOVERMENT CARE ABOUT U?

Responding to U.S ,complaints china charge thursday that the Bush administration has no standing to criticize  other countries on human rights because its own record is full of blemishes at home and abroad ,the chinese accusation, in a retor to the state deparment's annual human right report issued  tuesday,called  attention to what it said were abuses committed by  U.S. soldiers  and  intelligence   agents against terrorist  suspects  in afghanistan,iraq and guantanamo bay in cuba,but it also underlined what it described as increased  willingness by washington  to spy on its own citizen....

DO U FEEL ABUSE BY OUR GOVERMENT?JUST WONDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

downtown dallas will be a net loser in T.X.U's $45 billion buyout,that's because the utility giant plan to move part of its operation from the central business district to irving,T.X.U energy the retail portion of the company,will relocate to las colinas with about 200 employees after the sale is complete,txu executives say,txu is one of downtown's larges employers with with more than 1500 workers,while downtown has for yeras struggled to hang onto office workers,the timing for txu's move is good,said john crawford,chairman of downtown dallas,the business and economic development group,we are in much bette shape than we were five or six years ago so it won't have near the impact,crawford said yesterday,the workers to be moved are housed in txu's skyscraper on bryan street,

TXU'S,highest profit ever,txu boasted its profitable year ever in 2006,largely because the company hiked retail electricity prices and didn't back down despite public outrage and customer fight,txu said yesterday it made 2.55 billion in profit last year up from 1.72 billion the year before.

ARE WE WILLING TO KEEP PAYING OVER PRICE ELECTRICITY?

One of the things that makes this country great is the freedom,however membership in this country come with certain privileges and obligation.

We've come to the point where non-member ,ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS,receive the same privileges as a members,we shouldn't necessarity discourage immigration,but we should support naturalization,or have a law enforcement round up lawbreakers,it really is that simple,it make me sick that i pay taxes that go toward health care for such people,in my opinion,if you pay taxes and earn your citizenship,then you are welcome,those who haven't done those two things should not be allowed to speak-which is one of the most important privileges in this country.......

!!WE CAN SPEAK AND SCREAM,do anyone listen?

our great country has had 43 presidents,many very good ,a few pretty bad,on presidents day next monday,it's appropriate to commemorate them all.

i remember every president since (herbert hoover),he was one of the worst,a year ago i criticized hillary clinton for saying "this bush administration will go down in history as one of the worst",she's wrong i thought,then i rated these five presidents,in this order,as the worst:ANDREW JACKSON,JAMES BUCHANAN,ULYSSES GRANT,HOOVER AND RICHARD NIXON,"it's very unlikely bush can crack that list",i added,i was wrong ,not only has bush cracked that list ,but he is planted firmly at the top.

THE IRAQ WAR,OF COURSE, HAS BECOME BUSH'S ALBATROSS,HE AND HIS BUDDIES ARE GREAT AT COINING WORDS OR SLOGANS"BUSHIMS"THAT WILL HAUNT HIM HISTORICALLY.

<"SHOCK AND AWE "EARLY 2003>

<"MISSION ACCOMPLISHED"MAY 1 2003>

<"STAY THE COURSE"JUNE 2003,2004,2005,2006,

<"NEW STRATEGY"2007..another term historians may weigh critically is "DECIDER",is he just a self-touted decider doing what he thinks right?or is he an arrogant ruler who doesn't care or consider what the public or congress believes best for the country?

despite his play on words and slogans,bush  didn't learn the value or meaning of mea culpa(acknowledgement of an error) during his years at yale,bush admitting his many mistakes on iraq and ending that fiasco might make many of us forgive,even though we can never forget the terrible toll in lives and dollars,unless there is some great reversal,bush will be seen as one of the country's poorest presidents,iraq will stand at the top of the list,but the administration's failed responses to katrina will stand with its abuse of civil liberties to mark Bush out as a man with poor judgment and a failed leader""

WHAT DO U THINK AND HOW U FEEL....

i'm surrounded by immigrants,legal and illigals,and i have nothing but positive things to say about them ,they work incredibly hard and long for very little pay ,they are respectful of others and of the land where they work and live,immigrants are needed in our agricultural industry for it to survive,would you want to pay $10,instead of $3 for a carton of orange juice?how about paying an even higher hotel bill?

these immigrants are people who work for scant wages still manage to send money to their families in their home countries,immigrants are willing to work jobs that no one else will,the'll do your laundry,clean your hotel room,pick the fruit and vegetables you eat for dinner and wash the dishes and cook at the restaurant that you frequent,sound familiar?,for years,the USA has taken in the poor ,the weary,the hungry and the weak because they are looking for a better life and they can find it here on our soil,what is america made of?immigrants!!

IMMIGRANTS,ESPECIALLY ILLIGAL ONES,ARE INTEGRAL TO OUR ECONOMY INFRASTRUCTURE...

SOUND GOOD 2 ME!!!!!

it could fairly be said that the  U.S.is increasingly out of step with the rest of the world, as our neighbors to the south  elect a left -wing or even sicialist  goverment ,we are lurching  further to the right ,as europe becomes less engaged to the church,we are becoming more fundamentalist, actually ,the one region with which we seem to have a lot in common these days is ..the middle east ,,,let's see (FANATICALLY RELIGION WARMONGERS IN CHARGE?check) (UNIMPEACHABLE POWER HELD IN THE HANDS OF A FEW?check)  LETTLE REGARD FOR INDIVIDUAL RIGHT?check) DISDAIN FOR THE UNITED NATION?check) (HEADS OF STATE  WHO ARE BEHOLDEN TO OIL?check).

even during the world cup america seemed out of touch with the crowd,other countries had moving football anthems thet spectators would sing or hum from the stands,the americans could muster only a lame,spring -break line .."U.S.A.!U.S.A.!!

THE  BUSH PRESIDENCY,IN  ITS SPIRALING DELIRIUM OF DENIAL,CONTINUES  TO IMAGINE   ITSELF AS A TOP-DOWN ENGINE OF STREAMLINED  CORPORATE EFFICIENCY  AND  EXCELLENCE....

WAKE UP AMERICANS...HOW U FEELLLLLLLLLL
