What is your reason for       attacking every point you can find in a determination made       by science?                     --                     Every person in the US is here either       legally or illegally. Those that are       here illegally should be afraid.       Be very afraid. It does not matter       how long you have been here. It does       not matter why you are here. It does not       matter what you have done legally while you       were here. It does not matter what any       relative may have done while you were here.       It only matters that you are here illegally.       It may take a day, a week, a year, or longer       but we will find you and we will deport you.       Be prepared.              Deport them all.              All politicians are trained to lie       and make those lies sound like       the truth. They start with the biggest       lie of all: Politicians are public       servants.              The Dims have an appropriate party       symbol: A jackass.              National Socialist American Workers Party       (NSAWP) formally known as the Democrat Party              Some of the Republican positions I find disgusting       and abhorrent.       Most of the Democratic positions I find terrifying.              I support:              A Constitional Amendment establishing       the Freedom of Choice.              The elimination of public expression,       display or support of religion or       religious positions.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
