A note about anti-semantics and inflaming prejudice: today, Lou Dobbs had ????(don't remember her name or the organization)- She is apparently having to put out a few fires that have been set against legal immigrants (that's my limited perspective...she was for the grand compromise legislation) but, she has a valid point---immigrants are thrown into the same category as illegals. I've seen the backlash against immigrants, primarily Mexican! I hesitate to write posts that point to a particular group because of the possibility of being misunderstood. So, this post serves as a disclaimer--- I'm not against any group. All groups suffer the ignorant policies of their greedy, out of touch leaders.

re: ""It's only been in the last year that I've given a second glance to politics."" OH OH!! That is why we are in this situation today.. Not especially meant for you but to ALL the others that think and acted like you.. No offense.. But that is WHY we are in this mess today.. When good people DON'T care and do NOTHING.... Because they think it won't affect them.. It is ONE helluva of a lot easier to stop one's self (or their society) BEFORE (one or they) enter the swamp with logical and conscientous THOUGHT, than try to get out of it LATER when one or ALL: Is up to their ASS in alligators.. And wondering which way the bank is.. Take care, Welcome aboard, For it is "better late than never" c
