Inefficiency will increase when you have to explain every document to newly arrived immigrants.
Interesting...

If you were an immigrant in Costa Rica for example,you would expect all documentation to be in English for you at no cost to you?

We aren't in Costa Rica, first off. Secondly we have higher rates of immigration. Thirdly, its not as if immigrants don't pay taxes.

Fourthly (and more on topic), O'Donnell is the typical polarizing candidate that our nation has gotten (sadly) used to. She is pretty extreme on her views. We don't need more extremists in government. Our system is already too skewed to the right. We need to return a little more to center.

My Deal With Delaware is that I pledge I will always vote in favor of life and families. Now more than ever we must elect Senators who have a real understanding and deep appreciation for human life. There has been a profound loss of respect for all human life. Women are starting to come forward to break the silence about the mental and physical scars left on their lives by abortion. We must renew the commitment to respect all human life on which the Republican Party was founded.

Truly terrifying....


Those are great links....the first one is not her website but an opponent's and the second one you can't even find an issue she stands for.

Thanks so much.

Could you answer a simple question?

I will change my example to make it easier for you.

If you were an immigrant in Portugal for example,you would expect all documentation to be in English for you?

Just so you know,Portugal has a higher immigration rate then the USA.

I await your answer.

Have you been asleep since Jan 2007? It has shifted to the Socialist side of Left.

Sorry I thought everyone with an inkling of interest in politics knew how to google "on the issues".
Let me help you....go here:
OnTheIssues.org - Candidates on the Issues

Then look for the candidate you are interested in.

Then look at the issue in question.

Then you can look at the actual quotation as I posted above.

Yep nothing there again....Why don't you try reading what you link to first?

Then you might see she's not even listed.

I am sorry you were unable to navigate their website.

It seemed simple enough to me.

She is a Senatorial candidate for Delaware if that helps.
