Other - Politics & Government - February 2007

So do you think we should stop giving out foreign aid, and start demanding our debtors (20 years ago we were the world lender, then they started spending too freely to buy the love of other nations, and to buy votes of our own electorate) pay up or assign their debt to our creditors? that includes the UN, pay up what they owe US, or seize their assets in NYC and turn it into something more useful like a gambling casino/strip joint? Like strip the former politicians of their pensions and perks to help recover the losses to the American "shareholders" of their mismanagement? And without question terminate all foreign aid, all foreign scholarships. Seize assets in this country of those who owe us money until they pay. Stop imports from countries that steal intellectual property and sell counterfeit brand names and practice unfair trading that cause lopsided defecits. Confiscate property of felons using said property to commit felonies, this includes those in/formerly holding office?

To me, saying, "You're Black and you're coaching in the Super Bowl," is like saying, "You're short, and you're teaching an AP class." Isn't that insulting?

And we can fire him too. No wander they got rid of Harriet Miers.
With accountability and oversight back, Bush is headed for some majors storms on the horizon and will need all the legal protection he can get. I don't wonder that many in the GOP regret ever " electing " him that first time, much less the second term.

Like the people, who fought for nation's freedom, who had absolutely nothing in mind but to get freedom for the country. We should have candidates, who could give five years of their life in selfless service to the nation, in building the proud nation, free from corruption.
Whose aim is to built strong and proud nation. Country's fair development is the last word for them.
There are so many intelligent people around, whose interest may be the same as mine and who would like to put more light , knowledge and views into this and come out with a solution and give shape to this thought of mine.
Nation's development should not take place in pockets,sprewn here and there, but of every section of the society ,of each and every person with the strong feeling for the country's culture and charactor.
There are so many issues of priority to the nation and it should be handled in order of the priority, with the vision as to how the country should march towards the ultimate goal

Also as I currently pay $11,700 a year in Child support and close to $6,000 in FWT and probably another $3,000 in FIca should I consider dealing drugs as a side job to make ends meet?

We need another drug dealer far more than we need to make the Family Court System fair to both parents. Am I correct?

Our dollar has the eye of horus on it, or the All-seeing eye.. It is called the mal' ochio (evil eye) and regarded by all satanists as the symbol of lucifer. "The symbol represents the spiritual future of the united states of america".-Roerich
Doesnt anyone wonder what is actually going on. I mean, come on. Why a pyramid? what does eygpt have to do with the US? I know the 13 steps of the pyramid stood for the first 13 colonies, but they could have used some other, more american symbol. Any thoughts about this?

US Foreign Aid to those that hate us:

Egypt, for example, after voting 79% of the time against the United States, still receives $2 billion annually in US Foreign Aid.

Jordan votes 71% against the United States and receives $192,814,000 annually in US Foreign Aid.

Pakistan votes 75% against the United States receives $6,721,000 annually in US Foreign Aid.

India votes 81% against the United States receives $143,699,000 annually

Perhaps it is time to get out of the UN and give the tax savings back to the American workers who are having to skimp and sacrifice to pay the taxes

The children of the sixties Introduced free love ,libralism, freedom of expression and antistablishmentarism.
Now these same people are the the generation that is in control, they're the politicians, teachers, goverment officials, lawyers etc. As a nation we have a lost social under class, Asbo culture, binge drinking, rising teenage pregnancy, rising divorce rates, dumbing down of achedemic standards, non competative sports in schools, no resect for authority figures and a political system with the lowest level of respect ever.
So are aging hippies to blame for all our troubles?

I constantly hear liberals bad-mouth the troops and say they only sign up because they are dumb (bottom 10%) or signed up because a judge gave them a choice between the army and jail. When liberals constantly tell people not to serve their country, is this anti-american or anti-military? Or am i just too stupid to understand their ivy league ideology?
