		<description>I agree with Bridget. Dolph...you missed the boat also. When are people going to start acting like "Americans" and not hyphenated phonies! We (in America) don't need to emphasize the hyphenated part...why? Because we are all equal as individuals regardless of where one comes from! When we deal with issues that affect ALL people (water, food, medical, housing, etc.) there is no need (nor should it be tolerated) for the hyphenated part! This hyphenated crap is leaking into the political realm too! We don't want policies to be developed that favor certain ethnic groups over others...that would violate individual equality! I guess people really need to look again at the "melting pot" concept and why it was developed and why it is important to maintain.</description>

		<description>What was that saying attributed to Mark Twain? 

"Whiskey is for drinking - water is for fighting over."



This is all about government,  special interests ethnic power grab politics and 
big money. Otherwise it would just be the California Water Coalition.


Just for fun, read the following message from Paul Rodriguez and substitute the word Latino with Caucasian.

 Start with California Caucasian Water Coalition. ( I would wager that any form of Caucasian coalition, league, club or caucus would bring howls of discrimination, exclusion, apartheid and supremasy.)

He can clown around with "We came to this country to make sure Caucasians had salad." and a wry wink, as he picks the lint off your lapel with one hand while picking your pocket for "his" people with the other.

		<description>Mr. Patriot,  

I don't think Krutis is ridiculous at all.  We all do need water to live.  If a group wants to work on clean water or any other project that protects the Earth, good for them.  They aren't claiming the water as their own.  

I see no difference in Latinos forming a coalition to protect our water supply and say a black church adopting a section of highway to spiff up.  If the local Red Hat Society wants to plant wild flowers or daffodils in the city park, good for them. 

Many people are proud of their ethnicity or other attributes they have in common with others.  I don't want to discourage this.  Do we want to do away with the Hibernians and the civic duties they perform?

The government cannot do it all nor would I want it to.</description>

		<description>Remember those 4 kids killed on a school bus in Minnesota?  Turns out that the driver who hit them is an illegal alien with an assumed name and no drivers license. When are people going to wake up to this?:

Marshall, MN -- Police officers wheeled a woman who calls herself Alianiss Nunez Morales, 23, of Minneota, into court in a wheelchair Friday to face four charges of criminal vehicular homicide.

The judge set her bail at $200,000.

She was injured in the crash, but released from the hospital on Thursday.

She apparently speaks very little, if any, English, and the judge took a break shortly after noon because Morales needed help understanding some of the court proceedings.

She's accused of driving the van which crashed into a Cottonwood school bus on Tuesday, killing four children and injuring several others.

Authorities revealed Friday they do not believe Morales is her real name.

Immigration officials also say they believe she is in the country illegally, but they did not elaborate.

All four criminal vehicular homicide charges are felonies and each charge is punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a $20,000 fine. She was also charged with a stop sign violation, and driving with no driver's license. Those violations are misdemeanors.

The criminal charges also shed more on light on what happened.

Bus driver Dennis Devereaux told investigators he was going roughly 50 miles an hour down Highway 23, and saw the mini-van approaching. He said it was obvious to him the van would not be able to stop at the intersection.

He said he believed the van "went airborne" over the railroad tracks near the intersection, and slammed into the bus.

Devereaux told police there was no time for him to react.

Several other witnesses also told police they saw the van run the stop sign.

But Morales, through an interpreter, told investigators she stopped at the stop sign, and that the bus hit her when she started into the intersection.

She claimed she was on her way to work in Cottonwood, that she had only worked there a month, and that she had never been on Highway 24 before.

She claimed she could not remember her address in Minneota, but said she lived in a trailer with a boyfriend.

KARE-11 News learned more details Thursday about Morales' arrest and ticket for driving without a license in 2006.

That incident happened in Montevideo. The woman who reported her at the time said it did not appear Morales knew how to drive at all.

Morales' car had wound up in the woman's yard, and Morales did not appear to know how to shift the car's transmission.

Montevideo police wrote Morales a ticket for driving without a license.

More than a thousand people gathered in a high school gymnasium Thursday night for a memorial service to remember the four students killed in the crash.

Mourners who entered Lakeview School, which all four attended, were greeted by photos of the victims and bouquets of flowers.

"The first thing you noticed when you walked into the gym was there were kids hugging each other, just holding each other in lengthy embraces," said Rae Kruger, a reporter from the Marshall Independent who attended.

Kruger said there were stacks of Kleenex boxes at the end of every row of seats in the gymnasium.

Members of the Javens and Olson families were at the service, she said. Gov. Tim Pawlenty and the state's two U.S. senators attended, and Pawlenty offered condolences to the families on behalf of the entire state.

"The arms of Minnesota embrace you tonight," Pawlenty said.

The crash killed brothers Jesse Javens, 13, and Hunter Javens, 9, both of Cottonwood; Reed Stevens, 12, of Marshall; and Emilee Olson, 9, of Cottonwood. They were among the 28 students on the Lakeview School bus. At least 14 other people were hurt.

Classes had resumed Thursday with plenty of grief counselors on hand, Lakeview superintendent Sheldon Johnson said. Attendance numbers were at normal levels, and students seemed to be coping, he said.

"It's difficult, but they're probably handling it better than anyone would have thought," Johnson said. "We're trying to keep things as normal as possible and still be sensitive to the needs of the children."

But KARE-11 News learned Thursday that Devereaux, the bus driver, rode the bus Thursday to be with the kids on his route. Many students rode the bus to school but some had parents drive them or accompany them on the bus.

Terry Lange, the ex-brother-in-law of the Javens brothers' father, Marty, said Morales' arrest helps answer some of the questions that have lingered after the crash.

"It really doesn't change anything, but it makes a little more sense with everything going on here," Lange said. "I feel bad for the van driver too. It's just a terrible situation all the way around."

Hancock and five of the injured children remained at Avera McKennan Hospital in Sioux Falls. One child was in serious condition, Gleason said. Mary Maertens, CEO of Avera Marshall Regional Medical Center, said the child and adult who had been there were discharged Thursday. One student remained at Mayo Clinic in fair condition, she said.

Lakeview has about 585 students in kindergarten through 12th grade, serving Cottonwood and the nearby town of Wood Lake. The area is about 140 miles west of Minneapolis.</description>

"AUSTIN — Democratic presidential candidates Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama said during their Texas debate Thursday they would stop waves of immigration raids that divide families, they would encourage bilingualism, and they would put a pause on building a border fence."

Wow! What a whopper! Also, why do they say bilingualism (why don't they just come right out and say Spanish).</description>

		<description>I only vote for candidates based on issues (not party affiliation). People in this country need to quit voting for someone just because of a certain party. That is why we always have a situation of voting for the lesser of two evils. I don't care what party someone is from...if they are going to crack down on illegal immigration they have my vote.</description>

That is why we always have a situation of voting for the lesser of two evils. I don&#8217;t care what party someone is from&#8230;if they are going to crack down on illegal immigration they have my vote.</p>

		<description>Kaine is a idiot but what does a "Republican Govenor" guarantee? Heck, take a look at The White House and the current administration and the damage they've done not only to the US but the world over the last 7 years and one can do nothing but be appalled.

Makes no difference of party affliation, an idiot is a idiot and I for one would like to see party affliation done away with and let each person run as a independent.</description>

		<description>Krutis...you really are ridiculous! Your logic supports balkanization! The city as a whole should have a coalition since it impacts everyone (regardless of ethnicity). This coalition is just another fact that balkanization is occurring in our country. All policies should be made for the good of ALL people (not a specific group of people based on ethnicity, etc.). I guess you just cannot grasp this easy concept?</description>

		<description>TP @2:45 pm - Why not?  Any group, ethnic or not, that's interested in conserving and cleaning our water supplies should be cheered on and considered to be patriots.  It's good for the country!</description>

		<description>Krutis, you totally missed the boat on the link. So let me explain in plain English....why would you need an ethnic based coalition for water (when everyone needs water). That was the point. Understand now?</description>

		<description>TP - Water needs all the friends it can get.  You can live without food for quite a while but not without water.  Has your home ever had its water turned off?  If so, didn't you just of habit go and turn on the faucets?  Our agriculture needs water (remember the dust bowl years?).  We expect to have potable water coming into our homes. -  A friend of mine works for the Fairfax Water Authority.  He knows that there are many special interest groups that care a lot about WATER.

Count your blessings!</description>

		<description>I have a question perhaps someone can answer relating to this subject, and the subject of yesterday's post. Please forgive my ignorance. In my most recent member letter that I received from the NRA, the subject that they're talking about is "criminal aliens" in relation to our second amendment rights. Without getting into all the details, the letter states the following..."our laws prohibit deportation of criminals to any country that doesn't have a deportation treaty with the U.S....Countries like Iran, a known exporter of criminals and terrorists...Or El Salvador, which refuses to take back ultra-violent MS-13 gang members..." What? Is the NRA wrong here? If the 287(g) program will deport these criminals, how will they do it if we don't have an agreement with El Salvador? I am assuming that most of the alien criminals arrested in Virginia are from El Salvador, since I am a resident in Virginia and know the statistics. I did not mean to change the direction of this discussion, but I was just curious if anybody could answer this question. Can we, or can't we, deport these criminals? Any info. would be appreciated. Thank you.</description>
