How similar is this to the proposed reinstatement of the "Fairness" doctrine?
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.

Censorship, that most subtle tool of oppression, the tool of the fearful and small minded. 8/15/2008

I still don't understand how people can come here ILLEGALLY, protest in the streets and demand citizenship and NOT be deported :maddest:

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

We take our freedom too lightly...this could happen here, if only because too many people don't think it can't. Speaking of illegals, I was down on the border weekend before last and saw the trails and rest areas used by the crossers. Kind of spooked me to be out there at night.

The Crossers. Sounds like a good name for a horror movie.
Life is like a bowl of beer flavored chocolate covered dog turds.. it makes no sense. :pokinit:

Where is the Mammoth?

I don't consider myself a "bad" person, but if somebody told me they spent a night or two sniping illegals at one of those crossings, the hairs on the back of my neck would NOT stand on end.  Drastic yes, but I still say the more rotting bodies they have to pass on their way here illegally the more they'd consider going back  :twocents:

Well this time of year, they're dropping pretty quick out there. Who, in their right might, would try to cross 30-40 miles of desert in the summer with a single gallon of water. Doesn't speak well for the mexican government that their citizens are willing to risk death to leave.
