The drunken sailor Republicans will end up
spending & charging on America's credit card
before America's nightmare is over and
Bush gets Air Force One for the LAST time
and disappears from politics?

Does GOP really mean

If Israel was established to make up for the crimes of Christian Antisemitism, why were the Palestinians evicted from their land rather than the Germans who committed the crime?

President Bush signed a bill Friday to pay for military operations in Iraq after a bitter struggle with Democrats in Congress who sought unsuccessfully to tie the money to U.S. troop withdrawals.

The new bill basically gives money to the troops but doesn't establish any timeline or new strategy. So the troops can keep doing the same things they were doing before and getting killed pointlessly but they get money to do it anyways.

The democrats "realized that there was no point in trying to pass more decent bills if the president was going to keep vetoeing them all". But I mean, isn't this a lame argument? I thought he couldn't be an *** like that or otherwise the House would cut down his pay. And there IS a Democratic majority. Why isn't this happening?!
Why can the president do anything he wants and no other branch can stop him from destroying the US? Did I miss something?? At what point did we become a dictatorship?

Why does he refuse to allow that cow to lead liberal america?

With the highest PERSONAL debt of any nation BY FAR ( 18 000 PER PERSON ) Americans are literally broke. If it were not for credit, there would be catastrophe. Last year was the first year where individual saving DECLINED since the depression meaning people were digging into saving to sustain.
As for being a poor nation, take NY. NOTHING substantial has been built in over 30 years by the US goverment with YOUR tax money. The last project was the Verrazano Bridge in 1973. Wonder why the traffic is tremendous?
I guess people in the US don;t mind their taxes being stolen for the purpose of making Bush and friends rich via "rebuilding" Iraq and the war on "terror". The twin towers cost 4 billion. Bush could have BOUGHT Iraq and Saddam and won the love of the planet...but that wouldn't make him and his buddies anywhere as rich
Just look at US cities. They certainly speak for themselves: poor and decayed.

$3.49 here in Wisconsin. And how is it effecting your income. I am getting financially strained and tired of the media saying people just are not willing to cut back. I have cut back just about as far as I can. Driving less, skimping on groceries, the next thing to go will be my internet service.

Now, what does that make you feel? What do you think about it? Do you not see what is happening to American's liberties? It is a slow undoing, people, but nevertheless, your children & your grandchildren will live in a police state if you so much as dare tolerate this crap. You cannot let the idea of...'oh my God, crime!'...scare you into believing that there are not other ways, for your leaders to handle these matters...there ARE! Furthermore, if the leaders of the United States of America, home of the FREE, cannot lead you in ways that PROTECT your freedom, then why in the he#@ are you allowing them to lead you to a place that ENSLAVES?
He#@, it's probably a no wonder crime is going up...these criminals are human beings who cannot handle so well as you or I the crap we do. They act out because our leaders toss humans aside! God, I'm getting sick...

I am so depressed listening to the death toll and the never ending battle.
Yet, if we retreat does it mean we are defeated?
We also will be more negatively viewed by the other nations who are already disgusted by US!
What is your take????

The Federal Reserve System creates money with no gold or asset backing. It loans money to the government (on a perpetual basis) out of thin air and charges interest. Then for example the government uses that loan to pay a postal worker $1,000 in wages. The postal worker proceeds to deposit that money into a bank and guess what? Banks only have to keep 10% of cash reserves on hand and the other 90% can be loaned out on paper. That means the bank can loan out $9,000 at interest and that interest does NOT go back to the US Treasury because it is paid by average workers. The big banks are the ones who created the Federal Reserve System because they knew they could pump money (on paper) into the monetary system and charge interest on money that never existed in the first place. This pumping of money creates inflation because dollars are diluted with more dollars so that the dollars we earn through hard work loses purchasing power. Is anyone else appalled by this? What can be done?

The world we live in today is to a large degree, an American accomplishment.

- America rebuilt Japan after WW2 - now they are the worlds second largest economy and one of Americas strongest allies.

-America rebuilt all of Europe after WW2 - after supplying the Europeans with the means to fight a war in the first place - and now most European countries are decidedly pro-American - as well as very strong allies.

-America protected the entire continent of Europe from the USSR for 60 years after WW2.

-Americas military might enabled European countries to focus on their socialist health care and education systems - as America and the American tax payer paid out the *** for the defense of Europe and Asia - only to be spit on by these same people 50 years later.

Has the world ever lived as peacefully as it has under Pax Americana? At any point in history???


-And yes - even today America does the dirty work all over the world - only to be hated for it tomorrow.

Why?

Iraq Parliament is being pressured to let US Oil Co.'s have 80% of all Iraq Oil production forever!


After we have paid for the war with blood and money, they will get to sell it to us for huge profits thanks to Bush. Yet another war crime?

I ask because many people in regards to Iraq say it wasn't justified . Iran , people say we are not justified either , so I ask you when is pre-emptive action justified ?

Please remember pre-emptive action is not attacking someone after they attack you , pre-emptive action means we attack them before they attack us .

The Federal Reserve Act was passed at 11:45 p.m. on Christmas Eve, after all the opposing Senators had gone home to celebrate Christmas. Those who wanted the Federal Reserve had a quorum and passed the legislation in an unprecedented move. At the time, Congressman McFadden gave testimony in the House when he said:
"Mr. Chairman we have in this Country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Banks hereinafter called the Fed. The Fed has cheated the Government of these United States and the people of the United States out of enough money to pay the Nation’s debt. The depredations and iniquities of the Fed has cost this County enough money to pay the National Debt several times over. They are not Government institutions. They are private monopolies which prey upon the people of these United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers."
