Buttercup ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() You know there is major weirdness going on when the POTUS is lecturing his party faithful about being humane. Yay to Bush for getting it right! He's on the right side of this debate and I'm not going to speculate as to his motives. Maybe he just got it right for a change - that's a very real possibility!
A day before his departure, Bush told CNN en Espanol that the current immigration system "is inhumane, as far as I'm concerned, and it needs to be reformed." He urged Congress to support a temporary guest-worker program. "I have called upon both the House and the Senate to pass a comprehensive bill. And a comprehensive bill means to make sure you include a guest-worker program," he said. He said his plan "includes not only border security, but also a temporary worker plan that recognizes there are hardworking people here doing jobs Americans won't do, and they ought to be here in such a way so they don't have to hide in the shadows of our society." |

Pro ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I am getting scared! If President Bush and Senator Ted Kennedy are agreeing on something then I need to get started on my "what/who I want to do before I die list" It's the end of the World as we know it and I feel fine. woo-woo I made "Veteran" just in time. <------------------------- Edited by Mike 45 2006-03-29 9:17 AM |

(priorities) You may be doing your Oly in flaming seas, the bike ride will be totally uphill as the ground around you is pushing to the skys, and you run will be across a field of molten lava with toxic fumes spewing forth.

Buttercup![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Pshaw. I ran a marathon. I'm a triathlete. I'm not skeerd! Besides, I'm Buddhist. All that stuff is to punish you Christian sinners. Next year will be the first Buddhist Olympic Triathlon! Except for the part where the Buddhist monk will chastise me for my fitness cravings...

Except for the part where the Buddhist monk will chastise me for my fitness cravings and I am Catholic so I have the whole guilt thing about causing the whole mess. So how does the Monk chastising thing work? Will they make you swim laps or make you eat donuts and get fat while watching someone else do laps? Where is the Buddist Tri being held? |

Hey, thanks for knocking out my competition! That's one way to become FOPer. So how does the Monk chastising thing work? Nah. just have to sit still and meditate on why I resist the impermanent nature of my body. Where is the Buddist Tri being held? Well, once St. Anthony's Oly goes down in flames that opens up that venue for a Buddhist Tri! Or... just a non-Saint blessed tri. |

Maybe it had something to do with Nuns. They chastised me with metal edged wooden rulers across the nose when I didn't practice cornet and made up stupid excuses. I am thinking that meditation sounds like a piece of cake. (can you drink beer and meditate?) I could be converted if the rules work in my favor. |

Buttercup![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Well that all depends on you. Can you handle looking yourself in the mirror, metaphorically speaking, for extended periods of time? Can you handle YOUR truths? I never saw anything in the rule book against beer, btw. Hey, I just realized - Golfinggods is on the same side of this issue as the AFL-CIO! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! |

Can you handle looking yourself in the mirror, metaphorically speaking, for extended periods of time? Can you handle YOUR truths? I never saw anything in the rule book against beer, btw. As long as the mirror is only metaphysical I am ok with it. I am very comfortable in my skin. Other peoples skin doesn't seem to fit me so well. Good thing about the beer. That would be a deal breaker for sure. What does the Senator from New York think about all this imigration stuff? |

It's such a huge amalgam of creeds. In any event, she did not quote the bible. Ok, what the good Senator from New York said was: Context: a separate provision in the bill that would subject to as much as five years in prison anyone who "assists, encourages, directs, or induces a person to reside in or remain in the United States, or to attempt to reside in or remain in the United States, knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such person is an alien who lacks lawful authority to reside in or remain in the United States."

Thanks, Mike. That's really nice of you to say/write. When the rapture comes, I'll toss ya a saffron robe, ok? Unless, of course, you expect to make the first cut. When that happens I will take whatever help anyone is willing to give me. First cut? Not likely. Sorted past, yes. Tri to do good most of the time, not always sucessful. I am not sure I look good in orange though (I had to look up saffron). I had a burnt orange plaid couch once, that is the image in my head right now. As long as the robe is a natural fiber I'll be ok. (I sweat like a hog in polyester) |
