"Good news. The illegal immigration problem will be solved as soon as the 2012 elections are over. It's only common sense to see what's going on. The Dems need the Hispanic vote to get Obama and other Dems re-elected. As soon as that happens, the Dems and the Republicans will come down on the illegals. The timing will be perfect for enforcing immigration laws and getting that fence built in 2013."
"President Bush had no choice but to not land right after Hurricane Katrina came through. It would have been too dangerous for him. I wouldn't even ask that idiot, Jimmy Carter, to land right after a hurricane."
"I would challenge all parents to do a little research on fluoride added to our drinking water. A resent study showed that 40 percent of teenagers have dental fluorosis caused by the overexposure to fluoride. Kids get enough fluoride from toothpastes and semi-annual dental visits. The cities could save hundreds of thousands of dollars if they stop adding this harmful chemical to our water."

We all can use some "good news." I expect you are correct. Withdrawal of troops from Iraq and Afghanistan might just co-inside with your 2013 forecast. Will be envade Mexico and help them fight the war on drug lord terrorists or are these types some how to be characterized as insurgents? We'll just have to wait and see![wink]

You know, Airforce One can land in Houston and a Marine One helicopter ride ain't that bad!

Write your congressman and start lobying the Health Department. Parents cannot dictate to the local water departments floridation standards.

Dangers of fluoride and the high cost of water fluoridation. Very true.
Mesa went without fluoride to its public drinking water until late 1999, thanks to a Mesa City Council member. Currently, only ten Arizona communities (Bisbee, Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale, Guadalupe, Mesa, Peoria, Phoenix, Tempe and Yuma) fluoridate their water supply to the optimal level.
Fluoride is more poisonous than lead and just slightly less poisonous than arsenic. It is a cumulative poison that accumulates in bone over the years. Even though fluoridation has been used as a high cost dental health measure in cities across the U.S. since the late 1940s, it’s best to avoid drinking fluoridated water.
