  1. You people suck! I WOULD HAVE jumped this weekend had we not been in a Michigan hurricane.
  2. Not bad... Americans need to start taking responsibility for their own safety the same way the Iraqi's do. It's up to the people as the government cannot do everything.. Rhino
  3. I could really care less to be honest. Let them puke, their aid from us will still arrive on time... That's your opinion.. I happen to know Bush's view and what you say is not it.. Speak for yourself not our President. What's your point? We were talking about our borders here not Iraq.. Does any of your posts have a point to it or are you just venting your anger? Rhino
  4. This is a sensitive subject... We have to protect ourselves and our citizens.. Yet we have to be the example for the rest of the world. How do we protect ourselves AND be good citizens of the planet? Bush knows the Mexicans are just trying to feed their families. That is why he has implemented the temporary worker cards for them. They are just taking jobs that Americans tend to think they are too good to take anyways. I don't have a problem with that... Go ahead and let them in.. Just in a way where we know who is going in and going out. Muslim extremists are flooding in from the Mexican and Canadian borders. That is who we need to be watching for.. Call me a racist.. I'm not.. It wasn't a plane full of Mexicans that slammed into the WTC.. As far as I am concerned we have a duty to help the Mexicans feed their families as well. We are the richest nation in the world. If they need health care.. Give it to them.. It has to stop always being about US.. We need to be there for them in any way possible.. I believe that... We need to tighten down ALL the borders as much as possible. I like the volunteer idea and what they are doing so far.. Let's stop the ones that need to be stopped and feed the ones that are looking for food.. Let's treat the ones needing medical help and let's kill those that would harm our country... Amen!! and Semper Fi!! Rhino

  6. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7366857/ WASHINGTON - A group of 40 to 60 insurgents attacked the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq late Saturday in a well-coordinated assault that inflicted 18 American casualties, U.S. military officials told NBC News. This sucks major balls. Prayers to the families of the servicemembers. Semper Fi Rhino

    Fuel Cells

    GM in $88 million fed fuel cell deal: General Motors Corp. Wednesday said it signed an $88 million deal with the U.S. Department of Energy to build a fleet of 40 hydrogen fuel cell vehicles and further develop the technology. Under the five-year program, the world's largest automaker will spend $44 million to deploy fuel cell demonstration vehicles in Washington D.C., New York, California and Michigan. The Department of Energy will contribute the other half of the investment in the program, under an agreement that expires in September 2009. In a separate commercial agreement, Shell Hydrogen, LLC will support GM by setting up five hydrogen refueling stations in Washington, D.C., New York City, between Washington D.C. and New York and in California. Other program partners include the U.S. Army at Ft. Belvoir, Virginia, and Quantum Technologies in Lake Forest, California. Both will provide facilities for GM to store and maintain fuel cell vehicles. GM said it is also collaborating with the U.S. Department of Defense and would release news on that relationship later this week DCX commits $70 million to U.S. fuel cell development: DaimlerChrysler A.G. also Wednesday said it had a new agreement with the Energy Department to continue its development of fuel cell vehicles in the U.S. DCX said it would invest more than $70 million under the five-year partnership that also includes BP and other companies. Included will be outreach programs about fuel cell vehicles, the hydrogen economy and the benefits to society of advanced energy technologies. DaimlerChrysler is testing over 100 fuel cell vehicles under varying weather, traffic conditions and driving styles in different locations worldwide, with ambitious plans for more this year. BP recently opened the first public hydrogen refueling station in Southfield, with DTE Energy Co. Another station was opened in a cooperative effort between BP and Praxair at the Los Angeles International Airport. More at www.bp.com/hydrogen. Ballard promises 'commercially viable' fuel cell by 2010: AutoTech Daily and AutoBeat Daily both reported Thursday that Canada's Ballard Power Systems Inc. says a commercially viable version of its fuel cell technology will be ready for demonstration by 2010. Ballard has been a leader in fuel cell development since it demonstrated a system in a vehicle 12 years ago. The company defines a commercially ready fuel cell system as one with a 5,000-hour operating life that can start at temperatures as low as -30°C, generate power at 2.5 kilowatts per liter and cost US$30 per kilowatt at production volumes of 500,000 units. Ballard's devices can't meet those goals yet, but the company declares them "achievable" within five years. Ballard made the announcement in conjunction with the start of the National Hydrogen Association's annual conference in Washington, D.C.
