  1. no, Santa in on Medicare and SS
  2. so.... does that mean???? Coumo is not a narcissist?
  3. well, that's a step in the right direction at least.... Who would expect a decision BEFORE election day????
  4. Is anyone at all really surprised?? Let's try this instead... Tell me just what this POTUS has said that has actually turned out to be true???
  5. Yeah, I went through some of the posts here, and at least most Libs that come here make an attempt to seem coherent. Often bringing at least some facts into the discussion. This guy doesn't even allow for comic relief!!!
  6. Had a lot going on in life lately so haven't been able to post, but I have to ask PPP.... Where the h377 did this guy come from??? Hey Ga Bulldog bait... Tell me exactly when it stops being Bush's fault? Recent polls are showing people now think PBO is the worst POTUS in over a hundred years of polling. Beating out the likes of Hoover and Carter... Grow up, and realize the mess this idiot is causing.....
  7. Happy Thanksgiving to all!!! And this one's for you Chef, just in case you have trouble carving a turkey... :-)
  8. no it hasn't... read your history books again.... it yup, it's actually called monetizing the debt or otherwise known as inflationary spending... How does that help the "regular" folk again?? Forcing them into a higher tax bracket? ALL government induced??? Where did this guy come from??? WOW!!!!
  9. seems to me, your manager was racist, and you as well for laughing and enjoying posting about the incident
  10. I guess everyone else that read this is scared, or didn't want to bother with so many questions, but I feel froggy so I'll jump first... The 2nd amendment and gun control? What part of "shall not be infringed is so hard to understand? Obamacare / healthcare? What a tangled mess we weave. Perhaps they should have read it before they passed it, so EVERYONE would know what's in it? The current tax code and IRS? Abolish it, and institute the "fair tax" or something similar.. The government has become very good at this divide and conquer thing because they only raise taxes on a segment of the people at a time, making most shrug their shoulders because what the heck, it doesn't affect me.... But, could you imagine if everyone paid the same, and the only way to raise taxes was to do it on everyone at once, the ramifications for anyone proposing such a thing? War on drugs / legalization of drugs? We, as a nation, have more people per capita in prison than any other nation on earth and most, are there for non-violent crimes. WTF? OVER???? I know the argument, "but, it might lead to violent crimes!"... But I would argue, there are laws against violent crimes that the Constitution supports. Drugs themselves, without the other, are merely crimes against yourself... Gay marriage? Take the word if you insist, but I know, a true marriage is a joining between a man and a woman. Call gay or lesbian unions marriage if you want... It's just a word... Social security / private social security? If it had been left as a retirement supplemental income instead of adding all these other rules to it, and robbing from the "lock box" for other programs, it would remain solvent for years yet. But like any other ponzai scheme, it would still eventually fail. The only way to save it would be to return responsibility of overseeing it to the very people it was meant to help instead of the politicians... Government sanctioned spy programs on US citizens? What part of the 4th is so hard to understand? Should congress have to pass a budget, and should it be balanced? To the first, yes, it's required by the Constitution. To the second, let's do this instead... Make ANY increase in the debt ceiling mandatory the it be passed by the popular vote of the people. Since I above proposed an equal share of taxation, how do you think that will go over?? How big should government be? How important are personal individual freedoms? Again, 2 questions... First one, no bigger than necessary to the job of defending the nation, and defending individual rights.... Second one: Important enough to have been included in what we call the "Bill of Rights" of the Constitution. Look to the Preamble of the Constitution: "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." I know... this looks like the people actually established the nation instead of the government did huh??? Should the US have an official religion, give any religion preference, or outlaw any religious element. What part of the 1st is so hard to understand? Let me add to the confusion... Did you know, this is actually the THIRD article proposed for the Bill of Rights and not the first? The first never passed, but the second became the 27th Amendment. Anyway, as a confessed I would have a very serious problem with a declared religion, even my own. Should the US have an official language? No Voter ID laws? Should you have to prove who you are? Who should be eligible to vote? ALL American citizens, and yes, even felon should be able to vote. Look at it this way, who is the government more afraid of? You and me the law abiding citizen? Or the ones they are trying to squash??? Political office term limits? Not needed if we make them put all monies in trust while in office, and stop cronyism... Oh.... and salary can not exceed median income of all Americans... :-) Any additional comments, categories to discuss? Feel free to add Re-establish that ALL juries are taught the principles of jury nullification!!!!
  11. Heck, I live in Maryland, and the only way this idiot's career is over is if he switches to the Republican party or moves to the western part of the state.....
  12. This statement makes no economic sense... Both jobs and money are finite, meaning, if you take money from someone to give to another, it is NOT job creation, merely shifting of jobs and/or money, from one place to another.... Idiots do vex me sometimes....
  13. And why does he need to speak out against this??? He VOTED AGAINST it!!!
  14. I would argue in fact, absolutely NOTHING belongs to the federal government.... Everything and anything only belongs to "We the People....." that established the government simply because the government itself, belongs to the People...
  15. I read about that, and also heard the government was actually fighting him, telling him he couldn't shut down his own business, or they would file obstruction charges against him...
  16. Nah.... it's bikers, farmers, and anyone else that disagrees with him....
  17. Yeah, it's stopped, so they can turn the focus on veterans instead.... http://www.legion.org/membership/216768/new-irs-rules-legion-posts
  18. there was a reason we needed a Constitutional Amendment to ban alcohol and it is only because of government propaganda that they have been able to ban wacky weed.... I haven't partaken for decades now, 1979 to be exact, but I have never had anything against people that do... Besides, I've had run in's often enough with mean drunks, but have NEVER seen a mean stoner.... That said, I actually think it's even safer than drink, so why not? Gateway drug?? Come on!!! Stoners are too busy trying to decide what munchies to eat to bother thinking they might want something harder!! But back to my opening statement... If doing something, ANYTHING!!! Is in no way harmful to anyone else, then ANY law to make it illegal should be null and void... I get it... But they might steal to buy drugs!!!! Aren't there already laws against theft? Stealing is stealing right? Should we treat someone different for stealing because we disapprove of why they are stealing? We have more people in prison per capita than any other nation on earth!! And most of these are in there for a mere drug possession charge.... a non violent crime... Meaning, no one else was harmed during the "commission of the crime" except for maybe, (and a very big maybe at that) the user....
  19. Kiko will have a shot at DROY
  20. You don't know that.... Other teams had a right to offer Byrd, at the cost of 2 firsts if he signed. But a team can also try to work a trade for less with the tagging team. We have no idea if anyone approached the Bills about this possibility, but if the rest of the league thinks as much of Byrd as he seems to think of himself, I think something would have leaked out...
  21. Going through the pics the OP linked, I suggest Cordy Glenn hire a fashion consultant...
  22. No Tom, the only sorry a55 problem here is that municipalities are able to file for bankruptcy in the first place. I'm glad the state has it in their constitution that there is no way out of pension obligations, because quite frankly, IMO, they have banked on that idea for decades, thinking all they had to do was promise for the future, and no REAL intent to actually fulfill those promises.... ANYONE, ever a part of government, knows this... Hell.... it was the reason I got out of it. Lies and misconceptions... A few short years ago we complained about Bush, high gas prices, wars, high deficit... Obama campaigned against it all.... Where are we now?? Heck, before PBO, has any city declared bankruptcy? But ya see.... PBO already showed Detroit how bailouts can work by giving Government Motors to the union... Let's just give the city to them too. I'm tired of being told it was politicians, or China, or high taxes that doomed the city... We've already paid for the union bailouts and PBO declared it a success!!! Give them the keys to the city too!!! Surely the union leadership can fix the mess! Anyone object??
  23. So let me get this straight.... People are against autos because of CO2 right??? But bicycling is good right??? But don't people that bike also breath harder?? Inhaling more oxygen, and giving off more carbon dioxide?
  24. yeah, for the good old days....
  25. yup, through "Quantum Easing"... But that will also blow up in our faces soon and in theory anyway, cause hyperinflation... Wondering what the debt payments will be if we hit 20% interest rates let alone that hyper crap...
