Seems to me a phase out of the existing Social Security programs, allowing people to invest at least a small portion of their current contributions into their retirement accounts would be a much better option than this ponzi scheme.

And what's with the 'you don't have to work to get this' crap?

I just quit my job in Kansas, I had put in a 2 week notice, and went to part time during the 2 weeks, my boss and i had a meeting and i agreed to come back, part time but at my management status. I returned to work Monday and he had hired a new person to take over the managers position. I called him ( he is out of state) and confronted him. He said "well I thought you wanted to quit" I remeinded him of our conversation and he just acted stupid..ummm ummm. So I told him fine I quit. Do not call my home... and hung up.

If it works, then great. But I would have tried everything when they had the 1st chance thinking it may be their only chance. And does this also mean Hilary gets to scrog the help? There will be a big box of cigars on Hilary's desk. Cubans.

Should we heed the advice of the people in other countries who have been telling us for 60 years to go home? Should we reject the dangerous idea that it is possible to spread "democracy" by the sword? Should we return to Isolationism?

This country has gone insane!

These people are worried about 25 year olds getting free healthcare and that is why they deny it

Yet - this Government does nothing about our open borders after 9/11 and these 15,000,000 illegal aliens get our healthcare free all across our Nation every day and puts the bill on our hard earned tax dollars

Yes, America has lost its mind and backbone!

I mean for picking out the china, which I am sure will be Chinette. And the curtains, which without a doubt should be a shade just darker than azure blue. I know that no "man" has been the first lady, until now, but another thing I would like to know is, remember how JFK and Bobby kind of snuck Marilyn Monroe in and out of the White House,?... well I will leave that for a later question.

previously i had posted a question regarding this lady getting a whopping 10-14 years in jail for torturing her foster daughter for 11 years. (sticking hypodermic needles in her eyes, smashing her feet with weights, and more... not to mention she runs from the cops...)

Turkey is continually being attacked by Kurdish terrorists and the Turkish government has given the go ahead to use any means to stop them including crossing into Iraq and attacking them. This is what the US has to say on the matter

"If they have a problem, they need to work together to resolve it and I am not sure that unilateral incursions are the way to go, the way to resolve the issue," said State Department spokesman Sean McCormack.

I mean seriously. Unilateral incursions. What about invasions? What do the US call the invasion of Iraq?

Her idea of having the government seemingly "supply everything" while taking away from those who work hard sounds a lot like the Soviet Union.

Yeah , those immature fools at Air America (the self-proclaimed LIBERAL organization) now see fit to broadcast several Atheist's views on God and Religion . And to make it sound like a warning , they call it 'THEOCRACY ALERT' . Great job for Satan's minions . But is it a great job for liberals ?

Let's put it this way . . .. I'm a Christian and a Conservative . If O'Reilly or Hannity , or Limbaugh , or Ingraham , or Levin , or anybody on the right started promoting anti-Christian shows , I'd dump em in a New York minute .

But the question is. . . Will Liberal Christians dump anyone associated with 'THEOCRACY ALERT' ?
OR
Do Liberals find ANTI-CHRISTian Views Compatible With Their Own ?

Come on Liberal 'Christians' , which is more important to you. . . . God or Political Ideology ?

I am so tired of hearing that we went to war in Iraq for oil. It is hard to believe people after 6 years refuse to educate themselves. Allow me to help since you libs will not actually do the research instead of just spewing leftist talking points.
