Why moan and say that the "rich" guy should pay more and taxes and you should get more in handouts?

Why not do what he/she did to be successful? Is that too hard? Or is it easier to just ask for handouts?

Did you ever think about doing what those families did so that they could end up earning that kind of money?

Why would you rather they pay more in taxes than you to work hard enough and follow their example?

More specifically, what do you believe would happen to elderly widows, orphans, struggling famlies (you know, those downtrodden folks mentioned in the Bible)? Do you think folks would help out of the kindness of their hearts?

Are the Government and their advisers completely INSANE??? Isn't it scary that people like this actually have the Government's ear? Read on and prepare to be amazed...

Smokers should be forced to apply for an annual £200 licence in order to purchase cigarettes, a Government advisor has suggested.

The scheme would ensure smokers had to make a conscious decision to continue the habit and require people to become "registered addicts".

Prof le Grand, who lecturers in social policy at the London School of Economics and advises ministers through his chairmanship of Health England, said the idea was to make healthy choices the norm and force those who object to make a conscious effort to opt out.

Once the scheme was up and running, it could be extended so smokers had to get a doctor's signature that their health was not at "massive risk"...

Iraqi house in which they accidentally killed a number of innocent Iraqi men, women & children while attacking & killing terrorists in that same house & yet the US Air Force/Navy could bomb that same house killing the same people, & they'd never be court martialled?

This means FACTS, not conclusions. Conclusions are inadmissible at trial. We need to know the who, what, when, where and how of it. What did he do? When? Where? And, most importantly, what laws did he violate?
And, if he has committed an impeachable offense why has not Congress voted articles of impeachment, which take only a simple majority vote??

How many people live in Wyoming? 250 maybe. But they have TWO senators representing them. The 30 million or so people in NY have the same mumber of senators. DC? Zero senators.

Do You Think Times Were Better When Kids Were Allowed To Have Christmas Plays and Give Christmas Cards To Fellow Students In School ?

Over the river and through the woods
To Grandmother's house we go.
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh
Through white and drifted snow.

Over the river and through the woods,
Oh, how the wind does blow.
It stings the toes and bites the nose
As over the ground we go.

Over the river and through the woods
To have a full day of play.
Oh, hear the bells ringing ting-a-ling-ling,
For it is Christmas Day.

Over the river and through the woods,
Trot fast my dapple gray;
Spring o'er the ground just iike a hound,
For this is Christmas Day.

Over the river and through the woods
And straight through the barnyard gate.
It seems that we go so dreadfully slow;
It is so hard to wait.

Over the river and through the woods,
Now Grandma's cap I spy.
Hurrah for fun; the pudding's done;
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie.

Lots of Clinton friends/associates had the misfortune of dying when Bill was in office.

At times, it seems more dangerous to know the Clintons than to be fighting in Iraq.
