What are some of the biggest examples of treachery in the middle of a military battle?...like your army is teamed up with another army to go fight the enemy only to have your so called ally change sides and team up with the enemy against your army. Or how about this one...your army is going forward in dangerous enemy territory to go put down a rebellion. Some local guides who you thought to be friendlies ask to leave to go raise more troops for you. They go raise troops, except when they come back...you find that a) they led you into a trap...and the reinforcements they brought are not to help but to finish you off.

Do you think the government could and would default on Social Security payments, and say "sorry there's no money to pay it out."?

My dad says that the poor and middle class are lazy ingroant people. They are buying foregin cars and destroying the American economy. They are also all shoping at walmarts and they take money out of his paycheck because some of them are too lazy to get a job. That must be an easy life just siting around and watching tv all day then pickin up a check. Then the poor/middle class that do work are greedy and are all in corrupt unions. They purposely work slower and slack off because they know how stupid people in this country will suppor them when they go on strike. My dads a CEO and ofcourse he makes more because he does most of the work. Then these lazy people come and complain because they dont have engough money or their health insurance is horrible. Well maybe if they would of went to college and worked hard they would be CEO's as well. Then they take more federal money to send their kids to colleges and they crowd up the colleges so other people cant get in.

There are so many. Please share your recollections. One recent example is when the dems paraded a 12 year old with parents of means to condemn Bush after his veto. What a show ! Are Americans willing to take that ? Can you name/list any of the other many stunts Pelosi& Co. have tried on the American people the past 12 months ?

This is supposedly an ID card that you are supposed to carry around at all times. I think It may have a GPS chip in it to track people's movements around the world. i know it sound Orwellian but its the truth.

Or would you go to prison instead?

And why?
