Cheat, whose that in your avatar?

Right now God is saying I see Ray And Captain Kangaroo . . And I see I use to hide from the Romper Room Lady, she freaked me out doing that black magic trick.

I worked for a company that 53 out of 57 employees were Jewish. It was mighty lonely on the Jewish holidays. A couple years after I left, I heard a co worker say he wanted to apply at that company but he knew he wouldn't be hired because he wasn't Jewish. I learned a couple of things that day. 1. Everyone in the office assumed I was Jewish because I had worked there, or at the minimum my wife was Jewish. They also noticed most of my buddies that called had names like Goldman and Bernstein. 2. They didn't bother to apply because they "knew" the company had racist hiring practices. The fact that less than 10% of the employees was explained by the local population, the ties to a community group that helped Russian Jews who immigrated, and the fact that gentiles would not apply. Was that company racist? I never experienced it first hand. One of the other "non Jews" (I dislike that phrase) was named Nagma and I believe she was Hindu. It is hard to take your cries of racism when you've made statements like all Palistinians are liars. I have friends with children in Israel and they hate the Muslims and Arabs less than you, by a wide margin. There is racism around the world. For every group there is another who hates them. How many made in China, US Flags get burned every year? How many US Presidents get burned in effigy each year? Now start looking at individual races, religions, nationalities, etc. and you will see a ton more. Are Jews hated more than others? I honestly do not believe it. A Palistinian only has to link to your posts to prove that racism exists against them and that is why they are fearfull.

The Homeland is Secure, no need to work.

Perhaps for some of the same reasons that you live here instead of Israel. Your admiration for a society (Israel) that is 99.5% perfect (your percentage) has led me to wonder why you haven't moved there.

QUECHEE, Vt. (AP) - Bob Keeshan, who gently entertained and educated generations of children as television's walrus-mustachioed Captain Kangaroo, died Friday at 76, his family said.

Nuke, we are back to my original point. How do they know if Chisoxygirl is a threat or not? The process in our history goes something like this. Person A is being investigated and makes a statement that Homeland Security is a threat to our freedoms and Nuke answers with a Oops, Nuke agrees with this "person of interest" we better check him out. Nuke has been on this WS bulletin board what else can we find there? Hey look at this guy, he's hanging out with ChiSoxy and Nuke, what do we know about him? And soon innocent people are being investigated . . . Since it is in the interest of our national defense it's ok. Then the agency starts showing up at your work and just asking questions. And a nightmare starts for someone who was four places removed from the "guilty" person.

Show me where I said you weren't a Jew? You have accused me repeatedly of making statements that I never did. Simple thing here. prove your statement.

Nuke, that just isn't fair. Way too broad a brush. The KKK votes GOP, should I gather up their propaganda and attribute them to all Republicans? The GOP has extreemists as well as the Dems. The majority of Americans are not as polar opposite as the marketing by both parties would have us believe. Coke and Pepsi see the world as either one or the other. Most Americans will favor one or the other but will drink either. Same thing with politics. The Dems are way over there and the GOP is way over there. Most Americans are closer to the middle.

That is insulting to every thinking Jew or Catholic. Are you saying you would vote for a candidate strictly because he is Jewish? That you would select a Jewish candidate ahead of someone who you may agree with more? That people just vote for the candidate from their religion?

And let me add, without seeming to spam post. The best possibility for a Jewish, Black, Woman, or any other group who has not joined the Rich White Male club called the Presidency, is under the Republican umbrella. The GOP diehards will continue to punch their straight tickets (and they do mean straight don't they) and many Dems would applaud the opening up of the system to all candidates. Almost a lock.

Review your history, they said the same thing about Kennedy and being Catholic. Don't let the Pope in the White House.

I watched Lieberman on the dabates and I liked him. I dismissed him early because I didn't think he was going to get any traction. Perhaps the front runners may bloody themselves and Joe can get the nomination. In a small way he reminds me of Sen. Simon. Not the politics as much as the presentation. He scores high on my integrity scale. My son dislikes him because of his anti-video game stance. I try not to pay too much attention until we get closer to my primary. No use wasting time and energy reviewing some candidate that will bow out before Texas.

So customs keeps the white?

Israel4ever, I am ready to prove any statement that you like. I realized I threw away my vinyl and 8 track tapes of Marvin Gaye's What's Goin' On which may have proven it's my favorite peace anthem. So y'all will just have to take my word for it. Earlier you accused me of making statements without facts and I would like a chance to prove I have not made a statement I couldn't back with facts. I think it's funny you attacked me and I agreed with the wall.

Are they going to merge the uniforms also? At the border they have different uniforms. Since we have our choice of going into line with an immigration or customs official, I always get in the immigration agents lines. they move faster. Immigration isn't nearly as thourough as customs.

I haven't seen too many that do not want more, it's all about how we create more without overlapping and redundency and giving up any of our freedoms. It's easy to say we are only going to investigate people who are a threat, but how do you know if they pose a threat or not before investigating? So your email gets checked, apu's posts are sent to a clearing house, they start tracking how many times I leave the US and for how long. And soon we have the same problems we have repeated throughout our history.

the guy said she had the body of an 8 year old :puke :puke :puke

BTW Nuke, sorry if it seemed like I was attacking all government programs. I'm just getting very leery of the DoJ and Homeland Security.

I just want you to take off the burqa you qualify and bio what?

But they all cross paths. The same threats are worldwide and they cross state lines. I believe we can do great things through our government. I just want them to use my money wisely.

Interesting, about three or four pages back we were discussing who is and isn't a Jew. Not yet Jews

For starters get the different agencies to realize they are all on the same side. That was the root of the intelligence problems. I find it embarrasing when I hear that agencies didn't share info because they wanted to look good in budget reviews. W had to create an agency to make all the kids in the sand box play nice. Wouldn't it have been better if that money could have been spent on processing all the intelligence we already have? Right now we have several over lapping agencies all investigating the same thing. Three years ago in New Mexico we had one agency "bust" another. One agency set up a sting operation and they busted an FBI agent who was setting up his own sting. We wasted hundreds of thousands of dollars and someone almost got killed. I was trying to find the link but couldn't. It's an extreme case and may never happen again. Number two there has to be probably cause before wiretapping, eavesdropping etc. NO way a US citizen should be giving up their rights like that.

Which is exactly why Nixon started an enemies list, McCarthy started his hunt for commies, NY's Red Squad photgraphed anti-war protesters. This stuff gets out of hand if we just trust our government to do whatever we think they should do.

The problem is we need another government agency to get agencies to communicate. Imagine if that was your unit who wasn't communicating with another unit. Would your CO assign a new unit to facilitate communication? Why not get the agencies to talk to each other and save my tax dollars?
