Yeppers, november can't get here fast enough...and if the democrats have their hats on straight, they'll be pushing for nailing the damn border shut. TIGHT. Americans are getting robbed, that's all there is to it, the politicians got us coming, and going, it's time for reform, and for people to reclaim their lives, their wallets, their freedoms, and stop letting the hispanic lobby from trying to usurp our national independence. They're actively involved in our government, as you just illustrated, and Mexico needs to stand up, and wipe its' own ass instead of living off the United States Of America. Let's de-globalize a bit, and let the rest of the world take care of itself, for a change. If they can't, well, sucks to be them...

It's a start!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Our country is being invaded by parasitic terrorist to the tune of $ 30 BILLION AMERICAN TAXPAYERS DOLLARS A YEAR" that is taking away the future of our elderly, ourselves, our children and their children. Wake up!!! The U.S.A. is the life boat of the world and it's overloaded. What good does it do to try to save the whole world, if we all perish? You future will be dim if this country does not wake up and do something about all the different groups of illegal aliens including the Chinese. Have you ever heard of the Trojan Horse?

Man you people need to get off the same rhetoric that you have been thinking and saying.  All I ever hear is Bush’s illegal war and Clinton’s secret bombings with jets painted to be from NATO. You know the question is not even about that.  Did you know that there were draft riots because people did not want to fight in the civil war?  \nIf you look at the untied states over the past 100 years you can see the changes.  Every generation has gotten a little worse.  Now all you see on TV is sex and violence.  This has been a slow growing thing until computers. Now we are moving faster and losing all the respect for each other but mostly for ourselves.  This nation should be ashamed of the things we do. I know that the question is about when did we lose respect for the presidency but you can not just say that that is all we have lost respect for.   As far as the presidency goes I would say it started to get real ugly when we were losing so many men in Vietnam. People are all happy when in the times of WWII and we were winning.  Thousands of people died but we were seeing much progress.  When we were getting no real results people got mad and blamed the president.  Now that is when I can say flat out blatant disrespect for the president came to rise.  Which right about the time that the liberal party was hijacked by radicals.  To think that it was once a great party.

You said it! I agree with you completely. There is not enough room in this world for hate- It has caused too many problems already. Illegal immigrants are only trying to improve their lives, their children's lives. I'm not going into a debate on the issue, but the hate and anger need to stop. What happened to America that we act like this?

They are towards leaving Iraq.  They really don't have a plan right now.  They wanted to use scare tactics against Americans, so they get the vote.  As of now, I haven't heard any plans yet.

No, they've just been snowed by a government voted in people who believe that xenophobia is the answer to everything, and that that should be exported.  No compassion for fellow person (unless they have money ), and a little too much evangelical religion in places it doesn't belong.  The first fight they need to do is actually listen to what candidates are saying, decide how much is bs and how much is the truth, eliminate anything that is prefaced by 9-11, god, country, truth, and listen to what is prefaced by real people words.  They keep throwing bones to the masses (like the now internal crisis of illegal mexicans - like that's not new - and North Korea - which is a scary thing to get back into).  Good luck on this one.

We are praying for a new president, please join us, every little bit helps.\n\nAmerican citizens are actually good hearted people for the most part.

We are nearing an election.\nImmigration is this elections big poster child.\nWe've already done taxes, the trade deficit, and the war on terror.\nWe needed a new issue, and we're not really ready to make abortion or gay marriage our campaign message, but we sure can get a lot of support from folks who vote if we blame all our nations problems on immigrants and say that we have a solution to the immigration issue. As in "there would be more resources for Americans if the immigrants weren't sucking up all of the funding by sending their brats to school and going to the hospital without insurance when they are sick or injured, we're gonna build a bigger fence, and send 'em back!". WOOOOH! Look at everybody regurgitating that rhetoric now, baby! Voter turnout will be high! Those campaign dollars will be flying in! Jump on the bandwagon kids!

It's all rederick and useful propoganda to use against one another during election time (especially) but it's all screwed up right now because the Republicans are getting most of the heat because of the War, and all the problems that have arisen from that alone are huge, and a big deal to the overall majority of Americans so it's great ammo to use if your a democrat and a politician trying to run a successful campaign to Win a seat in office....dont you think? (even though we know it's all the same BS from both sides ) If your a Republican your going to use the fact that Liberals support immigration and some sort of work program as a sign of being whimpy and not protecting our borders ....its all BS. What have the Republicans done to protect our border? what have either party done thus far?? Nothing in my mind. I think it is up to the American people to stand up and say " Enough Already!" Demand real answers, a real plan, real priorities they have set aside, when it becomes a blame glame match it is up to us to be the mediator and to stop it. We really need to overall demand more from the people we elect in office so these kinds of blame games dont happen as much or as often, and they stick to the issue or topic at hand! Period!

Oh there is outrage.  It just doesn't make the paper.  We are marching, we are writing,  we are talking.  Hopefully if will show up in the next election.  Even in Ohio where the next guy running for governor is in charge of the election, is head of the GOP in Ohio and is being supported by the mega churches.  He also says he see not conflict of interest in this situation. He is the same man in charge of giving Bush Ohio via the election irregularities that he claims didn't happen.  Like more Republican votes in Gahanna than there were registered voters.  Like having two voting machines that worked in mostly Democratic neighborhoods with a wait line of two to three hours while in the Republican neighborhoods it was a twenty minute wait.  I live here I know.  I live in Republican neighborhood.  Son lives in Democratic neighborhood.  We both vote.  Like having stock in the company he recommended for the contract for voting machines in Ohio where there is not curtain around the vote.  Eventually everybody gets caught.  Karma is a b**ch.  I just hope I will be around to see it.\nAnd if one more person talks about 9-11 I am going to scream.  There was not ONE Iraq terrorist in the bunch.  The majority of them were Saudis.

This is crazy. We have been politically correct for so long that we are actually destroying ourselves. This country cannot take much more of this. Why cant people see this. Instead of bashing each other for being a Republican/Democrat we should take a look at the immediate needs of this once great country!

YIKES!!  Now I'm gettng worried. Don't scare me like that. Sometimes we seem so weak I could see it happening. If we don't get tougher it's going to be a Mexican and Muslim country. All those wars we fought to have American freedom and then the hippies grew up into weak Liberals and we get took over easily from within.

Everything will be complete sh*t. Look at our colleges - they're filled with illegal immigrants who get first pick over real American citizens. Hell, there's even a green card lottery. It's INSANE! Some students can't qualify for Financial Aid to go to school because all the sources are being handed out to people who don't freakin' belong here in the first place. If things get any worse, we're going to start a civil war. And it's not going to be pretty - we're going to decide on their fates here. It's not going to be good.

Just look at the Republicans Party not allowing them to vote today in their own elections. More strategy of the Conservatives to disrupt America for their own agendas. It's all obvious hate to the African American population in America, and a stand of white supremacists. I say it's really sick, and they are after the real estate of Americans through a natural disaster. The levies weren't being repaired just like a lot of African American neighbor hoods and streets in America. It's just another opportunity to repress the African American population. The Republicans, and George Bush are doing it all in Americas face too. Vote these people out of office, or it's going to be the end of Americas freedoms!

In this day and age, there are problems in either situations. It's sad really. I think we should all try to get along!
