Obama on Immigration, Step 1 : Border security. Step 2: Crack down on employers who hire illegals.
Thu Jul 24, 2008 at 03:32:29 PM PDT
Once those two steps are completed, Obama said, the government should offer a path to citizenship for existing illegals.

I admire his honesty and his ability to get it right.
I have to say that he has the attention of everyone that live in a border state when comparing McCains views and flips on the border subject.
My Dem View....Throw all the Bums out!
Fri Jul 18, 2008 at 07:08:39 PM PDT
Let's get some things straight right up front!
We Are the United States of America.
We decide who does what, when!
We are the wheels on the bus, and the engine, and the transmission!
We The People!
That being said, how many people on this forum want a New Congress, State Senate and House, and local government?
You know those people we VOTE for every 2 to 4 years, the ones that we pay the big bucks to. To do our bidding and represent our voice in matters that concern OUR Welfare and Security?
Attention ALL Radio Talk show hosts
Tue Jul 15, 2008 at 06:27:55 PM PDT
We have now entered into the twilite ZONE!
Every station has the same retoric about the other candidate, saying the same thing, with the same misinformation.
The Left is accussing the Right and the Right is accussing the Left.
You assholes are now making as much sense as Cable news. Where they repeat the same news cast only with a different comentator.
Why don't you talk about solutions and to the existing problems?
Arizona Home invasion by Mexican Army ?
Fri Jun 27, 2008 at 06:59:42 PM PDT
We were in California at Dana Point when we heard the news on the radio.
It wasn't clear if the people involved in the invasion and shoot out were military or Ex Mexican Military.
However the news out now is plain and simple.
The consensus of opinion from the Phoenix, Arizona police is that at least some of the six cross border raiders were ex-Mexican Army personnel involved in the home invasion homicide on Monday.
http://www.digitaljournal.com/...
The thoughts of the Phoenix Police officers are that the drug cartels are now performing cross border home invasion raids and murders north of the border i.e. Arizona. The past few months have been difficult for the Mexican Police and some of the drug cartel members who have assumed room temperature. As a result, some members of the remaining Mexican drug cartels are moving parts of their operations into the United States.
Reducing your energy costs...and more.

I was laid off in April from a builder and have had to come up with ways to save money.
I thought what I have found my help others here to lower their energy costs at home and on the road.
Please discuss and add anything that you know may help in reducing costs to this diary.
Independent..... Hillary Clinton for President
Tue Jun 03, 2008 at 07:26:46 PM PDT
The coded message is.... Select me VP or I will go Independent. That is exactly what I saw in tonites NY. speech, wher Hillary summoned her supporters and big time donation people for her speech.
Remember in this venue there is no cell phone or text messaging.
Remember she thanked Senator Obama for Running, not Winning.
Remember these people areoput for power at any cost.
At Any Cost!
The Other Clinton... This story you must read !
Mon Jun 02, 2008 at 12:59:00 PM PDT
After reading this artcle which is in the Vanity Fair for July, you will have a new view of Bill Clinton.
He has told friends that he is not worried that his aggressive performance this year has done lasting damage to his reputation (some of them are not so sure). Whatever the future holds for Hillary Clinton, her husband is not fading away. He will remain a presence, a force to be reckoned with, as long as he draws breath.
It's all Clinton ... all the time as usual.
The Nightmare Ticket.
Sat May 31, 2008 at 02:39:39 PM PDT
The press continues to push, "probably with the Hillary camps approval"
a so called Dream ticket...... and from every democrat I have spoke with from Maine to California believe would be the Nightmare ticket.
Their are reasons people support one candidate over the other, and reasons that people voted for one candidate over the other.
Those reasons are valid, they seperate the candidates and the fact is Hillary can not help Obama win, if anything she will cause his loss if she is on the Press promoted "Dream Ticket"
This diary is to discuss the differences and why it would be a NIGHTMARE Ticket for the Democrats......
logic and facts.
Arizona is one of the 20 top states for mortgage and real-estate fraud.
Wed May 28, 2008 at 01:06:45 AM PDT
UPDATE! Most Arizonan's do not know about this Bill!
If you have any friends or relatives in Arizona, please email this information to them! Have them call the News services and their representative to get Senate Bill 1028 off the table and out of the Republican Gridlock!
Did you know that in Arizona, anyone can become a loan originator?
There is no license to get, no school to attend, not even a background check required to become a loan "Officer"
Criminal record, no problem! Come on down!
And we wonder why we have a credit crunch/ Mortgage meltdown in the Home industry.
By the way there are 11 other states that don't require testing, certification or licensing.....
What about the NEWS? Where the hell are the REAL stories?
Tue Apr 29, 2008 at 06:09:34 PM PDT
This Rev.Wright garbage is really getting old.
After 6 days of not reporting on how Bush is stating that it is Congresses fault for high oil prices and the economy, we are greated with REV. Wright controversy.
The media manipulation has gone on for too damn long, and it proves that the media controls the American thought process and manipulates it to their advantage.
MY solution although rather, (not DAN) progressive......
Turn off your T.V. and unplug your radio.
HOW LONG? To the point of no Return?
Sun Apr 27, 2008 at 05:19:53 PM PDT
You have to ask yourself why? Why does she want to cause the Democratic party to suffer? What is she doing, when it is mathmatically impossible for her to win the nomination? 2012?
Why does she continue to embrace McCain over her rival?
Why does she continue to allow her husband to embarass himself, forgeting that he made statements on tape that can be played back over and over again at a cost that the democratic party can not afford?
P.A. Democrats,Consider These Hillary Headlines Prior to voting!
Sat Apr 19, 2008 at 06:05:28 PM PDT
I want to put to rest the reason why Hillary could not be President of these United States.
Let me say that I worked to get Bill Clinton in office in both Presidential Runs.
We need to bring respect back to this country and put service to the people before personal gain in our elected officials.
Here is what I found..
UPDATE: Last Nights Debate Proves Senator Hillary Clinton has no class
Thu Apr 17, 2008 at 05:37:01 PM PDT
Through out the debate Hillary continued to show that she has no class.
Her constant garbage in, garbage out philosophy has again earned her Record high negatives with the American people.
Where as Obama's, defense moves of turning the other cheek seems to have him catching up to her with Catholics across Pennsylvania....(My Source)
Thank God the Pope decided this was the best week to come over to the U.S.
The Sheik in Hillary and Bills Closet
Tue Apr 15, 2008 at 06:57:05 PM PDT
I have also mentioned in a number of posts the number of BIG Favors that Hillary owes to the Sheik of Dubai.
The Sheik of Dubai, that little country that wanted so badly to take over AMERICA's ports after 911.
That Sheik of Dubai who in 2002 stood and called for the destruction of Israel.Former President Bill Clinton has accepted at least $1.6 million from the United Arab Emirates, including $300,000 from a Dubai sheik who adamantly backs the country's controversial boycott of Israel.Less than three months later, Sheik Mohammad urged the United Nations to approve the use of force against Israel to halt what he called the Jewish state's "butchery" of Palestinians, according to London's Financial Times.
That Sheik of Dubai, who was introduced to Hillary and Bill, became a partner with Bill thru Burkle.
Yeah, "that" Sheik of Dubai
Why YOU need to Run for political office.....NOW!
Sat Apr 12, 2008 at 04:58:50 PM PDT
I first ran for elective office when I was 20 years old.
I had great idea's that I believed were shared by more than a few people around town. My background was simple, I had worked for The Jimmy Carter campaign and I was a staunch democrat!
The small town that I ran for office in was pretty much midwestern, redneck, and stuck in the 1950's as well as being the home to a famous Republican senator. They didn't like change, and they were set in their ways.
BUT I Ran, and out of the 8000 votes cast in the primary, I squeaked out a loss with 1240 votes.
This was a learning experience. I had experienced the good with the bad and did it all on my own dime.
The town is still there, still small, stuck in the 1950's to this day and they still resist change at every chance.
But the experience to voice my opinion and grow was worth all the effort, sarcasim, teasing, and trauma that comes with growth in knowing opinions are like ass holes, every one has one!

The Economics hit home with me yesterday.
The boss came in and said...
We need to talk. We are going to have to cut you loose...
What did I do? I asked.
It's the market, You are a great guy, you do well, but the word came down that we need to have a reduction in force. He replied.
That was at 2:00 P.M. At 2:15 I was putting my box of personal items in my trunk and trying to figure out what just happened.
I came home and picked up a book and uncapped a cold beer.
The beer was Guinness, and the book was by Irving Stone,
" They Also Ran" about all those candidates that ran and lost......
The Happy Warrior, Democrat.. Alfred E. Smith and I began to read his story.

Fifty years ago on a cold, grim Easter holiday, a protest was meant to be a watershed: a global call to ban the bomb.
People marched from London to a factory in the countryside where Britain built its atomic bombs. Pat Arrowsmith was among those early campaigners for nuclear disarmament.
"It was quite clear that we were not just against the tests, and we were not just against the British bomb," Arrowsmith said. "We were against the Soviet bomb and against the U.S. bomb."

I wasn't at Woodstock, my mom wouldn't let me hitch hike so I had to watch the updates on the largest peace and Love rally that would take place at the time.
Hillary's offshore accounts and Questions raised!
Thu Apr 03, 2008 at 11:07:10 AM PDT
I was listening to the radio coming into work today as they were announcing a undercover report on Hillary Clinton and her Cayman Island accounts.
I find this fasinating as Hillary has stated that she is against offshore accounts as well as sending American Jobs to foreign shores never to return.
When I got into the office, I started googling...
Here is what I found
