This would require the states to equitably fund the education of children in public and non-public schools, while respecting the liberty of schools in hiring and provision of services. We can change the tenor of this election campaign by calling upon our representatives in Washington, at 202-224-3121, and urging them to sponsor this legislation. Thank you for your worthy efforts.

Because numerous scientific studies warn that software can be easily and undetectably subverted to thwart the count, we are committed to preserving the integrity of New York’s electoral system. We believe there is a legal remedy to prevent the use of unreliable computerized voting equipment in New York and to allow the continued use of our reliable, trustworthy and low-cost lever voting machines. Despite widespread belief, HAVA did not outlaw the lever voting machine, nor has any court ever ruled on the issue. This litigation will seek a ruling that our lever voting system is HAVA compliant, now that disabled-accessible voting devices are going to be installed in every polling site. Contact us if you or your readers wanna help. New fangled garbage is right.

I would like to know what YOUR definition of a terrorist is then. Is it someone who murders people who disagree with him by burning him alive; places bombs in bars that kill and maim civilians; bombs shopping centers etc? if so, then maybe THAT is why the ANC was on the list of Terrorist organisations. If that is NOT your definition of a terrorist, then I would like to know what people who did that in the USA would be called?

Employers can hold closed door meeting with the employees and tell them their jobs will move out of country, fire ones that they find out or trying to organize,and tell lies or untruths about unions, which is against NLRB laws but nothing or very little happens to them when charges are brought against them. Check out American Rights at Work web site all the people on the board are there for you to know, but CDW you can't find one person willing to put there name on the site. Things need to change for appointees to the DOL and NLRB board these are suppose to be for workers rights , yet all the members are CEO, management of some sort, and Bussiness lawyers. How can the working class git a break when there is this kind of leadership. I totally agree.
