Maybe it will make a difference now, didn’t seem to matter when it was just border ranchers getting robbed and killed.

I have a bad feeling about this, one mile deep and those responsible have no clue what to do.
Update: Wind is pushing the oil over the booms and barriers. Heavy winds are expected to push oil far into the marshes and wetlands with still no way to shut off the leaks. 5000 barrels a day with possibly going up to 20,000 barrels a day very soon.

I can’t believe they do not require automatic remote shut-off valves.
The accident has led to one of the largest ever oil spills in U.S. water and the loss of 11 lives. On Wednesday federal investigators said the disaster is now releasing 5,000 barrels of oil a day into the Gulf, up from original estimates of 1,000 barrels a day.

We do not need immigration reform and I wish everyone would stop saying this.
It suggest that we Americans have a problem with our immigration process. In truth legal immigration works just fine. The problem that most Americans have is the “illegal immigrants” coming into the US for whatever reason. Our open borders allow anyone, not just Mexicans, too cross into and out of our territory at will. God only knows if I was a

Weather forecasters say the wetter-than-usual El Nio winter that has blasted much of the United States could be followed by an active tornado season. Greg Forbes, severe weather expert at The Weather Channel, said Tuesday that comparable past winters suggest there could be an above-average number of tornadoes this year. Forbes said the likelihood of more tornadoes was offset a bit by weather patterns that have made the Gulf of Mexico’s temperatures 2 or

A Border Patrol officer inspects vehicles this week at a checkpoint in Tombstone, Arizona, near the Mexican border.
What does the Arizona law do?
Arizona’s law orders immigrants to carry their alien registration documents at all times and requires police to question people if there’s reason to suspect they’re in the United States illegally.
It also targets those who hire illegal immigrant laborers or knowingly transport them.
Let me see, hmmm, I thought

I have come to realize that I cannot continue with this blog until I openly explain my personal views on this government, my party affiliation, or lack thereof and my heartfelt beliefs concerning what is good for our country.

What are these people trying to prove? What a joke, and to think this guy is an elected representative… Just another way to discredit Obama?
I personally think Anderson Cooper did a fine job of showing how the “Party of NO” is really the party of bigots and the uninformed.

It is this authors belief that a a “value added tax” (VAT) would be a balanced and uniform way of making sure every American pays their fair share. I dont believe it should replace the current income tax. It is also my belief a balance of the two would be a good idea. Incorporating a VAT Tax and changing the current income tax system to a “lower” flat tax that taxes all people evenly,

It has always appeared crystal clear to most Americans but yet they choose to give their rights away in the hopes that the “Government” will protect them. Try calling 911 when someone is holding a gun on you. I defer to the quote I placed below the video which states explicity how our framers of the constitution thought about the 2nd Ammendement.

Giving drivers licenses to illegals and handcuffing your police force by not allowing them to ask about legal status is putting the welcome mat out. Something has to be done about the illegal immigration issue and it is good too see a state finally taking a stand.
