Ed?

Knock it off.

Arguing with kooks is not a reasonable discussion

If it has alt.kooks in the cross posting list,
how about just leaving it alone.

You are not going to convince them, or educate them.

and it's getting to the point that you just might be
joining them...


For what it's worth.

Respects,

Richard Lamb

Are you sure it is not the next step in Democrat economics. They passed

okay

so thats why republicans in congress are so leary of voting witth shrub
because this way if it all falls apart then they can blame the entire mess
on democrats

since this started before 2007
republicans have already blamed democrats for what happened before that
because as a minority party they didnt block republican legislation


Today's Republican party should be ashamed of the **** they've supported
and done over the last decade. Worse is that instead of admitting their
****ups they try to shift the blame and continue on the same road to
disaster repeating the same mistakes that brought us this economic
catastrophe.

Abraham Lincoln is spinning in his grave.

How?

Seriously, how does one do that? Despite promises of transparency the
Bush administration is refusing to reveal the recipients of that
$2,000,000,000,000.00 ++ of public money.

That is intolerable. It's time to dust off Madame Guillotine!

The dems are pilfering the money. Nothing new there.


They are not running things yet.
Bushco is.
So you lied. Again.


Why are you surprised? After what, years of examples why would you
possibly expect anything other than more lies?

You're smarter than that, Cliff... Don't expect pigs to sing or horses to
fly. The neocons have nothing left but lies since its become so painfully
obvious that their programs are a disaster of biblical proportions.

If they speak or post, expect lies. For the first six years it was all
Clintons fault. Now it's the Democrats fault morphing into Obama's fault
even before he takes office. Bush never existed, the neocons and
Republicans are turning him into an unperson.

Why are you surprised?

HTH

You're a hard man, Richard. d8-)

However, you're right, this is getting ridiculous. My lifelong campaign
against bull****, which was manageable in the days of print journalism, is
now an impossible dream. I've had enough of it.

You are definately confused as to how the Federal Government runs. The
Congress is the only group who can pass a spending bill, the only ones who
can say we spend this money. The Executive Branch can approve or veto the
bill with their Check and Balance part of government. But it is only
Congress who can first say lets spend money and tell the rest of government
to spend money and how much they can spend. And the Democrats have been in
control of the checkbook for nearly 2 years. Bush and the Republicans sux.
But so does the Democrats and Pelosi, expecially Pelosi, and Reid.
