Fri, 30 Apr 2010 08:07:21 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/8970899 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/8970888 If we kicked out all the illegal immigrant in this country, that would open up 5-7 million jobs for low experience and low education americans. Why are so many government officials afraid of keeping/kicking them out?<br /><br />You're thinking like a conservative. Stop it, immediately. Those aren't "illegal immigrants." Those are "undocumented Democrats." Immigration reform will provide them a fast track to citizenship, whereupon America will be solidified as a progressive country. Finally.

The other two were 18, and if they are convicted of attempted murder they should be dealt with as all attempted murderers are dealt with. Their reasons for trying to kill the victim are...

What do you think of this?<br /><br />If I were a Christian, I would be very careful before saying that God couldn't do something. The same God that put words in the mouth of a donkey (Book of Numbers, chp. 22) can put words in the mouth of Glenn Beck, if he chooses to do so. My impression of the Christian God is that he sometimes...

The benefits of having the Prophet Muhammad (BBUH) sniff out Osama bin Laden should be self-evident.

President Bozo is the biggest joke of them all, and how seriously he should be taken can be gauged by the depth of human misery his idiotic policies and actions will cause the people of this country for years to come.

I finally figured out the principal difference between liberalistas and traditional conservatives. The conservatives view man as a noble creature, so naturally they view him with respect and treat him with dignity. Liberalistas, on the...

Is it a racist organization?<br /><br />I heard on the news that there are. I even heard one call into a radio show, saying don't believe the media hype about Tea Partiers being racist.

I didn’t believe this so I checked http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/dhs.asp<br /><br />How is it that you don't know that Political Correctness is more important than security, that embracing multiculturalism is more important than preserving our freedom?

The Tea Partiers are the anti-clown vote. What race is Bozo, anyway? I'm not sure clowns are a racial category.

Seriously. I don't knock it. If that's what they need to believe, let them. It's their religion, not mine.

There are women out there doing it without legal sanction. Thank the Goddess for spiritual women of courage.

How does it apply to/affect your life?<br /><br />Voicing this view is like tossing a cat into a dogpile or bringing a skunk to a garden party. Nobody wants to hear it. Wicca--by which I mean religious Witchcraft--is about communion with the divine, which is to say communion with all that is. That is why the "Great Rite" is the sum and...

Females: :If you were a male, What would you want to do?<br /><br />I would luxuriate in being loved simply for existing rather than having to earn it.

Stalin and Mao killed more people; but they were largely forces of history. If they hadn&#039;t done what they did, others would have taken their places. Same thing&#039;s even more true of Karl Marx. But Hitler was an aberration.

Can you talk yourself into being a positive person or are you what you are and that is that?<br /><br />There is plenty of positive stuff in the world. It&#039;s just easier to be negative. It&#039;s always easier to tear down than it is to build up - easier to piss &amp; moan than it is to have hope. Of course, if you don&#039;t believe in anything, it&#039;s kind of hard to be positive.

But she said she still loves me and always will do but just wants to be mates. I love her so much and just want her back what do i do?<br /><br />I think she was trying to break up with you and be nice about it. Let her go and move on.

Don&#039;t take care of someone else because you&#039;d feel guilty if you didn&#039;t, or because of what someone else will think of you. Decide what is the right thing to do, and do it for YOUR sake, NOT for theirs. ...

How does one choose a super power? I think I&#039;d have to choose to be like Sue Richards of the Fantastic Four. As I recall, her invisibility and force field ability are different aspects of the same ability. Of course, I couldn&#039;t be the...

But by far the craziest has to be the notion that in order to fix the party the GOP has to become more conservative. What do you think?<br /><br />I&#039;m not a Republican. Hillary was my presidential candidate. I don&#039;t think it&#039;s crazy at all. I think that if you don&#039;t stand for principle, you&#039;re nothing. If your principle isn&#039;t popular, then so be it; maybe you won&#039;t win today. But a party that...

My response depends on whether or not I&#039;m with people I know well and feel at ease with. The less familiar we are, the greater the need for proper etiquette.

I happen to think both are natural; and if people want to celebrate themselves this way, that&#039;s fine with me.

But if they persist, I would let them go. Demanding that you choose between them is manipulation, and that&#039;s not the act of a friend.

Or, don't pick, and you all die. What would be your choice and why?<br /><br />I kind of agree with veriria; but assuming the truth of the proposition, I would say me. I think I would say me if the others were strangers, as well, because I don&#039;t fear death, which I believe is just a transition to another stage of life. I&#039;m ready to die, and the others may not be.

It seems to me that it goes against all logic and reason. I'm not trying to be mean. I'm just curious.<br /><br />You have to reject the misconception that the essence of faith is believing in the truth of a bunch of stuff you can&#039;t prove. That&#039;s a Sunday School notion of faith, which - regrettably - many religious people never get past themselves; and it&#039;s not accurate. Religious faith is...

It's really horrible of her because it was an embarrasing thing. What should i do? :'(<br /><br />What you might do depends on what the secret is. Sometimes you can steal their thunder by admitting whatever it is openly, not trying to hide it. For example, if it&#039;s something you wish you hadn&#039;t done, then you might say, &quot;Yes, I did it, and I&#039;m not proud of it; but we all...

I&#039;ve discovered that things I thought were very funny when I was younger aren&#039;t necessarily quite as funny today; and I suppose the reverse is also true.

I think the truth is that courtesy is vanishing from American society.

Sex is part of life. In the US, sex is presumed to be something wicked and dirty; and this has led to all kinds of social problems. The hysteria, I fear, is only getting worse.
