Quote from The Ringo Kid

Same thing happened here recently against Wal Mart--and the Residents won. They did not want Wal Mart to build one of its largerst stores here--I think they are called Ultra Wal Mart--or Super Wal MArt--not sure. Anyway, the residents of the southside of CC rose up and protested and forced the crappy city council we have--to deny that land to wal mart.

The city council in Helotes did the same thing last year - but there is a new mayor that is commercially oriented and is instead wanting possible park land developed for business. Such a shame!

Quote from Tbone

What really bugs me is that our tax money gets spent to perpetuate this stuff, i.e. government forms in other languages, etc.

It bugs me that we have to have all these ads on billboards, in magazines & newspapers and on TV here in Texas that are done in Spanish! Application forms and other important documents have to be in both English and Spanish.

Quote from The Ringo Kid

Among some younger Germans, those are the ones who harbor growing hatred for most foreigners. Not to sound bad myself, they consider Italians, the: Mexicans of Europe. Also, there is a hugh influx of Russians, Croations, Muslims and Africans in Germany. When I was there, in many places I saw even lots of Japanese--not that it matters who is there Personally, I like the Croations I met while there as well as the Russians I met. I met a few French and Italians as well and thought they were good decent folks.

There are good people from every walk of life. Unfortunately, it is the minority percentage of bad apples that color the rest of any ethnicity and heritage.

How easily we forget! History is suppose to teach us, but the human condition seems to fight that all the time.

Quote from SXViper

I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN
diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan with more than two unpaid parking
tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded and
crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to this. You creeps
have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those tickets tomorrow or
watch your precious Benzes, Beamers and limos be turned over to some of
the finest chop shops in the world.

I especially agree with this. Diplomatic immunity has allow a lot of foreign crooks get away with all sorts of unlawful activities without having to have any responsibility for them!

Quote from Colorado Bob

Howdy All,
How does one describe a wedgie other than uncomfortable? Maybe a better description would be a Pelosi. In fact, I would like to ask for a vote among a members of this prestigious forum, that we, from this point on, refer to a wedgie as a "Pelosi." All in favor say "aye", all opposed, stand to the left.

AYE ! All this talk a few weeks ago of bipartisanship and she dumps it all in one fell swoop !!? Pelosi and Clinton - two of the most prominent devil-witches around .
