This would include providing lawyers for civil criminal trials.<\/li>\n<li>Stop fencing the border, allowing more than a million illegal immigrants per year to enter the nation.<\/li>\n<li>Provide five-year amnesty for illegal immigrants, including up to 66 million family members.<\/li>\n<li>Grant driver&#8217;s licenses to illegal immigrants.<\/li>\n<li>Cancel Bush&#8217;s tax cuts, increasing average taxes by 15 percent to 20 percent.<\/li>\n<li>Continue the federal estate tax, returning to former confiscatory rates and exclusion.<\/li>\n<li>Increase the federal tax on gasoline 50 or more cents per gallon.<\/li>\n<li>Block appointments of strict constitutionalist judges.<\/li>\n<li>Extend prohibitions on increasing domestic recovery of petroleum.<\/li>\n<li>Approve same-sex marriages.<\/li>\n<li>Continue to refuse to make English the official national language.<\/li>\n<li>Seek United Nations and European Union approval for U.S. foreign policy.\n<li>Cede U.S. trade policy to control by the World Trade Organization.<\/li>\n<li>Subvert the Constitution by participating in organizations like the World Court.<\/li>\n<li>Participate in military efforts only as part of United Nations forces.<\/li>\n<li>Add more entitlement programs, like socialized health care.<\/li>\n<li>Increase environmental regulations and restrictions.<\/li>\n<li>Sign the Kyoto Treaty despite widespread signatory noncompliance.<\/li>\n<li>Further empower trial lawyers by removing all limits on awards.<\/li>\n<li>Continue to block picture identification to impede voter fraud.<\/li>\n<li>Continue the idiotic prohibition on racial profiling at airports.<\/li>\n<li>Refuse to simplify the tax system and improve Social Security.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you think these are exaggerations, check the liberal Democrats&#8217; and environmentalists&#8217; Web sites, including the George Soros-funded MoveOn.org. Read Gore&#8217;s book Earth in the Balance and view his new global- warming scare movie. Review the Democrats&#8217; obstructionist record in Congress and their traitorous undermining of the war on terror. Note former President Clinton&#8217;s failures to capture or kill Osama bin Laden because he considered terrorists criminals, even though bin Laden had declared war against the United States years earlier.<\/p>\n<p>Read the speeches of the Democrat leaders: John Kerry, Jack Murtha, Hillary Clinton, Howard Dean, Al Gore, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Boxer, Charles Rangel, John Conyers and even Rep.
