if you would like I can dig up all the applications I helped process for two years getting guys legal under it. It was a nice little loophole tucked into a bill by a republican somewhere and signed by bush, all you had to do was prove you were employed here for 5 years and paid taxes and it was about 5k in lawyers fees.

I thought it was interesting last week while I was on vacation that in the help wanted sections of the cape cod newspapers they were hiring large numbers of spanish speaking school teachers at all levels from K-12. Lot of landscapers up there taking care of those expensive vacation homes I'm thinking.

actually it has more to do with the regulations passed a few years ago requiring foreign languages for kids k-12, when I was in school in MA you could choose if you wanted to take a 2nd language. and of course we have Mitt Romney to thank for that....what party is he in again?:looney:

Again proving my point, that the cancer of Socialism is deeply entrenched in our government and in unions (school admin especially).
Funny thing about Socialists, they are patient and have no party loyalty, they only care that their agenda shows progress.

Hmmmm, I fail to see the parallels.
Charity should never be confused with Socialism.
Doing something for others out of the goodness of your heart is not the same as having the government take money from you to distribute as they see fit.
However, it you are looking for a textbook example of Socialism, try this:

Hillary 2012..........:scared:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt1puizrv4A&feature=player_embedded#!
Unfortunately, this was all too predicatable.
"Mrs. Clinton, how would you define the word ‘liberal’? And would you use this word to describe yourself?”
Hillary answered: "You know, it is a word that originally meant that you were for freedom, that you were for the freedom to achieve, that you were willing to stand against big power and on behalf of the individual.
"Unfortunately, in the last 30, 40 years, it has been turned up on its head and it's been made to seem as though it is a word that describes big government, totally contrary to what its meaning was in the 19th and early 20th century.
"I prefer the word ‘progressive,’ which has a real American meaning, going back to the progressive era at the beginning of the 20th century.
"I consider myself a modern progressive, someone who believes strongly in individual rights and freedoms, who believes that we are better as a society when we're working together and when we find ways to help those who may not have all the advantages in life get the tools they need to lead a more productive life for themselves and their family.
"So I consider myself a proud modern American progressive, and I think that's the kind of philosophy and practice that we need to bring back to American politics.”
Progressivism vs. Communism – The difference between the two is that Progressivism is not swift, like Communism. Whether the means to the ends are similar or not, the point of the debate is that the ends are the same.

Care to point out the parts of my post that aren't facts?
Please use facts to refute them, and not just opinion.
Ummmm...
Would it be
a) Clinton is not running for President (again) in any official capacity and denies any/all rumors that she will run again.
b) A Chicago dentist created the 30 second ad because he wants her to be president
c) Ad is being run without Clinton's blessing
d) The ad itself is untrue and not a 'fact'
e) All of the above

Where in my post did I state that Hillary was running for President? I was fully aware of the source of the ad before I posted it. My posts often require you to think.........you formed your own conclusions.
Campaigning Democrats are rapidly distancing themselves from Obama, Reid and Pelosi. Could it be that they are actually listening to their constituants?
:dunno:
As far as Hillary goes, she has a much greater chance of being elected in 2012 than Obama.......but the net result would be the same......wait for it......more Socialism.

In just 120 days, the largest tax hikes in the history of America will take effect.
They will hit families and small businesses in three great waves on January 1, 2011:
First Wave: Expiration of 2001 and 2003 Tax Relief
In 2001 and 2003, the GOP Congress enacted several tax cuts for investors, small business owners, and families.
These will all expire on January 1, 2011:
Personal income tax rates will rise. The top income tax rate will rise from 35 to 39.6 percent (this is also the rate at which two-thirds of small business profits are taxed). The lowest rate will rise from 10 to 15 percent. All the rates in between will also rise. Itemized deductions and personal exemptions will again phase out, which has the same mathematical effect as higher marginal tax rates. The full list of marginal rate hikes is below:
- The 10% bracket rises to an expanded 15%
- The 25% bracket rises to 28%
- The 28% bracket rises to 31%
- The 33% bracket rises to 36%
- The 35% bracket rises to 39.6%
Higher taxes on marriage and family. The “marriage penalty” (narrower tax brackets for married couples) will return from the first dollar of income. The child tax credit will be cut in half from $1000 to $500 per child. The standard deduction will no longer be doubled for married couples relative to the single level. The dependent care tax credit will be cut.
The return of the Death Tax. This year, there is no death tax. For those dying on or after January 1 2011, there is a 55 percent top death tax rate on estates over $1 million. A person leaving behind two homes and a retirement account could easily pass along a death tax bill to their loved ones.
Higher tax rates on savers and investors. The top capital gains tax will rise from 15 percent this year to 20 percent in 2011. The top dividends tax rate will rise from 15 percent this year to 39.6 percent in 2011. These rates will rise another 3.8 percent in 2013.
Second Wave: Obamacare
There are over twenty new or higher taxes in Obamacare. Several will first go into effect on January 1, 2011.
They include:
The Tanning Tax. This went into effect on July 1st of this year. It imposes a new, 10% excise tax on getting a tan at a tanning salon. There is no exemption for tanners making less than $250,000 per year.
The “Medicine Cabinet Tax” Thanks to Obamacare, Americans will no longer be able to use health savings account (HSA), flexible spending account (FSA), or health reimbursement (HRA) pre-tax dollars to purchase non-prescription, over-the-counter medicines (except insulin).
The HSA Withdrawal Tax Hike. This provision of Obamacare increases the additional tax on non-medical early withdrawals from an HSA from 10 to 20 percent, disadvantaging them relative to IRAs and other tax-advantaged accounts, which remain at 10 percent.
Brand Name Drug Tax. Starting next year, there will be a multi-billion dollar tax assessment imposed on name-brand drug manufacturers. This tax, like all excise taxes, will raise the price of medicine, hurting everyone.
Economic Substance Doctrine. The IRS is now empowered to disallow perfectly-legal tax deductions and maneuvers merely because it judges that the deduction or action lacks “economic substance.” This is obviously an arbitrary empowerment of IRS agents.
Employer Reporting of Health Insurance Costs on a W-2. This will start for W-2s in the 2011 tax year. While not a tax increase in itself, it makes it very easy for Congress to tax employer-provided healthcare benefits later.
Third Wave: The Alternative Minimum Tax and Employer Tax Hikes
When Americans prepare to file their tax returns in January of 2011, they’ll be in for a nasty surprise—the AMT won’t be held harmless, and many tax relief provisions will have expired.
The major items include:
The AMT will ensnare over 28 million families, up from 4 million last year. According to the left-leaning Tax Policy Center, Congress’ failure to index the AMT will lead to an explosion of AMT taxpaying families—rising from 4 million last year to 28.5 million. These families will have to calculate their tax burdens twice, and pay taxes at the higher level. The AMT was created in 1969 to ensnare a handful of taxpayers.
Small business expensing will be slashed and 50% expensing will disappear. Small businesses can normally expense (rather than slowly-deduct, or “depreciate”) equipment purchases up to $250,000. This will be cut all the way down to $25,000. Larger businesses can expense half of their purchases of equipment. In January of 2011, all of it will have to be “depreciated.”
Taxes will be raised on all types of businesses. There are literally scores of tax hikes on business that will take place. The biggest is the loss of the “research and experimentation tax credit,” but there are many, many others. Combining high marginal tax rates with the loss of this tax relief will cost jobs.
Tax Benefits for Education and Teaching Reduced. The deduction for tuition and fees will not be available. Tax credits for education will be limited. Teachers will no longer be able to deduct classroom expenses. Coverdell Education Savings Accounts will be cut. Employer-provided educational assistance is curtailed. The student loan interest deduction will be disallowed for hundreds of thousands of families.
Charitable Contributions from IRAs no longer allowed. Until this year, a retired person with an IRA could contribute up to $100,000 per year directly to a charity from their IRA. This contribution also counts toward an annual “required minimum distribution.” This ability will no longer be there.

Cap and Trade on the sly.........
http://www.westernclimateinitiative.org/wci-partners-and-observers-map
http://www.libertynewsonline.com/article_301_29354.php
Forget about organizing to fight a proposed "Cap and Trade" bill that will continue to destroy America's manufacturing base.
Forget that Global Warming was such a fraud that its Green Movement proponents had to change the name to Climate Change.
Forget about the fact that the Green Movement can better be described as the Watermellon Movement because although the Green Movement appears to be Green on the outside, it is also Red (communist) on the inside.
Forget about the truth. It doesn't matter anymore because the Obama administration has secretely implemented draconian Cap and Trade rules anyway, totally disregarding the will of the American people and without giving them a chance to vote "NO" on the issue.
The Federal government has transferred a staggering $65 billion dollars from the private sector (via new taxes) to fund the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI.) RGGI is government created entity, much like the corrupt Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac entities that destroyed the American real estate market, that is now choking companies in the northeast with huge tax increases in the name of saving the environment.
RGGI is the nation's first mandatory greenhouse gas cap and trade regulating entity. This waste of tax dollars is responsible for "making an impact on climate change" in 10 Northeast states.
The American Taxpayers in the New England area are now funding this secret climate initiative against their will. Soon, the RGGI will be expanded to every state in the union and the American people will be required to pay the bill with astronomical higher energy prices.
Forget that GLOBAL WARMING ISN'T EVEN REAL and that the purveyors of this junk science were involved in a United Nations inspired scheme to defraud the industrialized world out of trillions of dollars via "Green" taxes and fees, the Obama administration has decided that you are going to pay anyway. After all, "green taxes and fees" are really about power, control and the redistribution of your wealth to the federal government, not about protecting the environment.
Each state is capped on their carbon emissions and taxed if they use them up. RGGI has already added a 0.9% increase in energy prices in New England. It is another perfect socialist plan to get your money.
The only impact the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) has made so far is they have raised energy prices and created a slush fund for each member state. Exactly what this money is supposed to be used for is still unclear, but I'm sure the crooked politicians in each state will find a way to squander the money.
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO SECRETLY TAX ENERGY BASED ON THE FRAUDULENT CLIMATE CHANGE SCHEME TO DEFRAUD!
The corrupt sense of entitlement by our federal government and the secret entities they create is mind boggling. While everyday Americans struggle to pay the bills and live through the stress of the Recession, RGGI appears to be rolling in money, thanks to the American taxpayers.
RGGI Chief, Jonathan Schrag and his wife Kristen purchased a $2.2 million dollar loft in Manhattan. Schrag's posh condo is 2,000 square feet and has three bedrooms and two bat in June of this year, with a nice view of the Manhattan skyline. Schrag's luxurious residence is only a five block walk to the RGGI headquarters. I guess he didn't want to risk creating a carbon foot print by driving to work.
OUR TAX DOLLARS ARE FUNDING LUXURIOUS LIFESTYLES FOR CROOKS
Schrag is paid to keep secrets. He has refused to disclose how much money he makes and the salaries of his employees. Schrag told New Jersey Watch Dog to get lost when they asked him to disclose RGGI's records.
In the most recent public disclosure requests from the IRS Schrag declined to reveal how much everyone is paid in the organization. Most companies have to reveal to the IRS the salaries of their employees. RGGI is given special treatment because our government is backing their scheme to defraud us.
The corrupt politicians in Washington are completely responsible for this gigantic waste of tax dollars. Everyday Americans work hard to earn money and provide for their families while Washington bureaufatcats get paid to accomplish nothing! The crooks behind RGGI must be exposed and held accountable!
FOLLOW THE MONEY
Guess who has been involved in the bidding on $662 million in carbon dioxide permits since 2008 and making money by doing it. Well, the bidders are the usual cast of characters involved in just about every other scheme to defraud the American people out of their hard earned money. The bidders at RGGI auctions include Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase and other Wall Street heavyweights. They intend to make big money by speculating on the price of permits, called allowances because Electric power plants are now required to obtain an allowance for each ton of CO-2 they emit.
But exactly who is buying what at these auctions? How much of the carbon market have they cornered? What effect will the wheeling and dealing have on the electricity bills paid by consumers?
Well, that’s none of our business, we are told by the bureaucrats in charge. They have repeatedly denied Open Public Records Act requests for auction details, contending the bidders’ “expectation of privacy” and “trade secrets” outweigh the public right to know.
Sounds a little like the Federal Reserve's explanation of their need for secrecy in the discribution of the federal stimulus money, doesn't it? Well why not? The same financial people are also involved in this fraudelent scheme to take our money as well.
RGGI executive director Jonathan Schrag claims that the RGGI is not a “public body” subject to any state open records laws – even though it’s a non-profit cooperative created and governed by the states of New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont, Delaware and Maryland.
Though Congress failed to pass legislation for a nationwide system, RGGI will ensure that cap-and-trade remains alive in the U.S. The scheme has friends in high places, both on Wall Street and within the Obama Administration. EPA Commissioner Lisa P. Jackson was first vice-chair of RGGI in 2008 while head of the New Jersey Department of Environment Protection.
RGGI is the prototype for two other mandatory regional systems scheduled to start in 2012. The Midwestern Greenhouse Gas Reduction Accord will bring cap-and-trade to Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa and Kansas. The Western Climate Initiative adds California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Mexico, Utah and Montana – plus British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec. Manitoba is a member of both cooperatives.
Together, the three regional systems will encompass 23 states with roughly half of population in the U.S. – plus four Canadian provinces with more than three-quarters of that nation’s populace.
This phony Cap-and-Trade system is nothing more than a criminal scheme to defraud the American (and Canadian) taxpayers because it favors secrecy over public disclosure, deception over the truth, Wall Street Banksters over over taxpayers and consumers and if allowed to continue, it will grow more powerful and become the de facto law of the land, even without an act of Congress or without the people having a say in their own future.
This is what socialism and fascism are all about.

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/reid-attaches-controversial-immigration-measure-to-defense-bill/
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Tuesday that he will add the DREAM Act, a controversial and divisive immigration measure, onto a defense policy bill the Senate plans to consider next week. With his political maneuver, Reid hopes to divide Republicans between voting in favor of the defense bill — a measure that would likely normally pass with bipartisan support — and in opposition to the DREAM Act. Also attached to the defense bill is a measure to repeal the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy barring gays from openly serving in the armed forces.
The DREAM Act –or the Development, Relief and Education of Alien Minors Act — would provide a path to citizenship for young immigrants currently living in the country illegally so they can freely enroll in school or serve in the military.
NO PAPERS, NO FEAR....IMMIGRANTS ARE MARCHING HERE!

Gays already serve in the military. Those with the secret haircuts and sensible shoes are already serving openly.
I also served with foreign nationals in the military, they didn't have security clearances, but were dedicated individuals.
