It is 25 years since Reverend Jesse Jackson ran for President, head of the Rainbow Coalition. On C-Span today, everyone is remembering how he was the first black man to run for President of the United States. Also, it was the Reverend Jesse Jackson who initiated the idea for a universal health care system. Why him? Why a Democrat? The answer is the same as it is today, unions.
> Let’s take a good look at how much money the unions donated to President Barack Obama, and how many union nurses we have. The unions are wanted a result for their monetary donations to the election of President Barack Obama. The unions are pissed. Why? Well, class, after 8 years of the Bush administration trying to weaken the unions, they want to regain power. Want proof? Why did, in late 2008, did an airplane factory agree to build a plant in Alabama? Simple, the South is pro- agricultural and is anti-union folks. Let’s not also forget, the South has cheaper wages compared to the North. That’s your proof. They help put the President in power, they want their return.
> No new taxes for those who make less than $250,000? The truth? According to the IBD, !0 November, 2009, under Provision 7401 and 7402, all taxpayers must pay a 2.5% increase on our taxes for this health care plan. If we do not? A fine of $250,000 or 5 years in prison. Well, one good thing, in prison you get free health care, rent, and food.
> It’s not about your health folks, or death panels,paying for abortions, or illegal aliens getting free care. It’s about the unions wanting power.
> Here’s something you should think about. How many Hispanic-Americans do we have out there. More than Black folks, 14.6 million. Of those 14.6 million that we know of, how many are illegal? Every week the United States government taxes their checks for 20-25% also. Let’s say 50 dollars a week per illegal alien times 11 million. (this is just the Hispanics according to NY Times 20 Nov 09) How much money is the U.S. government making off illegal immigrants per week? What about the tax money that they can’t claim at the end of the year? How much money are they really worth to you , President Obama?
Why not do what Jesse Helms did of North Carolina, give immigrants an ability to gey a state identification. Why? Well, you know who they are, they will pay taxes, and own property. As long as they worked and paid taxes, the state of North Carolina made great money. Don't give us Id's? Be like California, and watch your farms and factories go to Guatemala and Honduras. Americas won't do our work.

The REAL reason why we are in Afghanistan,
why we support Musharaff in Pakistan,
so India can have energy. Send Indian troops then, the war is so India can have natural gas? And the pipeline goes through the Taliban's backyard?

The Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline (TAP or TAPI) is a proposed natural gas pipeline being developed by the Asian Development Bank. The pipeline will transport Caspian Sea natural gas from Turkmenistan through Afghanistan into Pakistan and then to India. Proponents of the project see it as a modern continuation of the Silk Road. The Afghan government is expected to receive 8% of the project's revenue.

The original project started in March 1995 when an inaugural memorandum of understanding between the governments of Turkmenistan and Pakistan for a pipeline project was signed. In August 1996, the Central Asia Gas Pipeline, Ltd. (CentGas) consortium for construction of a pipeline, led by Unocal was formed. On 27 October 1997, CentGas was incorporated in formal signing ceremonies in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan by several international oil companies along with the Government of Turkmenistan. In January 1998, the Taliban, selecting CentGas over Argentinian competitor Bridas Corporation, signed an agreement that allowed the proposed project to proceed. In June 1998, Russian Gazprom relinquished its 10% stake in the project. Unocal withdrew from the consortium on 8 December 1998.

The new deal on the pipeline was signed on 27 December 2002 by the leaders of Turkmenistan, Afghanistan and Pakistan.[1] In 2005, the Asian Development Bank submitted the final version of a feasibility study designed by British company Penspen. Since the United States military overthrew the Taliban government, the project has essentially stalled; construction of the Turkmen part was supposed to start in 2006, but the overall feasibility is questionable since the southern part of the Afghan section runs through territory which continues to be under de facto Taliban control.

On 24 April 2008, Pakistan, India and Afghanistan signed a framework agreement to buy natural gas from Turkmenistan.[2]

[edit] Route
The 1,680 kilometres (1,040 mi) pipeline will run from the Dauletabad gas field to Afghanistan. From there TAPI will be constructed alongside the highway running from Herat to Kandahar, and then via Quetta and Multan in Pakistan. The final destination of the pipeline will be the Indian town of Fazilka, near the border between Pakistan and India.[3]

[edit] Technical features
The pipeline will be 1,420 millimetres (56 in) in diameter with a working pressure of 100 atm.[3] The initial capacity will be 27 billion cubic meter (bcm) of natural gas annually of which 2 bcm will be provided to Afghanistan and 12.5 bcm to both Pakistan and India. Later the capacity will increase to 33 bcm.[4] Six compressor stations are to be constructed along the pipeline.[3] The pipeline is expected to be operational by 2014.[5]

The cost of the pipeline is estimated cost at US$7.6 billion.[2] The project is to be financed by the Asian Development Bank.[6]
