What Constitutes a Fair Trial?

I don't think that foreign national terrorists are due protection under the Constitution.
How capitalistic of them.....
Just a note. I agree with your article and how screwed up the entire OWS morons are. However, you should remove the link in point #9, it connects to the Council of Conservative Citizens which is a racist, white power organization. Not a very credible source and discredits your article.
I don't understand why we are supposed to "compromise" on our 2nd Amendment rights. Are we supposed to compromise on our 1st Amendment rights? Or our 5th Amendment rights? No. So why should we give up our right to defend ourselves and our families?

Does anyone have a link to the Washington Post article mentioned above?
I don't know about the 10mm, a nice scoped .44 revolver sounds more like it to me. lol I'll take some bacon though.

Hopefully the Feds will take this nut down and keep him out of our education system and society.

Something needs to be done with the conference as it's out of whack right now. I don't think expanding to the East would be a good thing. Missouri and Nebraska are a good idea. Notre Dame would be nice but won't happen anytime soon. They would have to move all their other sports from the Big East and have a TV contract which they won't give up.

The GOP's Great Alienation of Latinos

If the Republican party has alienated Latino's then it is by their choice. Illegal immigrants should not benefit from American systems set up to help citizens like free health care and education. Why should they get something that everyone else pays for? Do you think if you moved to Mexico illegally you would get health care and a free education? I don't. If I recall properly the immigration debate for "reform" in 2006 was about making people here illegally citizens. In other words, rewarding those that broke the law. We should support that? And the Arizona law only seeks to enforce current federal law. If AZ is anti-immigrant then so is Congress. We are being flooded with criminals, illegal immigrants are criminals by...
I don't doubt that the bonuses and high pay are true for some in the public sector, too many for sure. But it's far from true for everyone. I work at a county jail and make under 30k a hear. Police officers and the like make more that I do, but not enough to compensate for what they do. There is a lot of waste and overpay in public employment, we just need to be sure we cut it where appropriate.

It is always sad to me when I see how far our country's colleges and universities have gone down hill. Speech codes, unable to express opinion (if it "offends" certain groups that is), having to tow the line to get decent grades from biased profs. I hate having to pay all that money to send my daughter to one of them.
