See, the posting was supposed to be humorous.  It made me laugh out loud, several times.  This is called the LIBERAL board and it's provided for us liberals to post our thoughts as well as post serious items as well as humorous items.  Please keep this in mind.  If you have a problem with this humorous article please complain about it on the CON board.

Hubby was telling me last night that China's economy is now tanking because ours is.  Factory workers over there were showing up for work only to find their business had closed because of lack of orders from the U.S.  India may be next.  You never know.  I don't see it happening with MT but like I said, you just don't know.  Did you see their work days?  6 days a week and something like 12 or 14 hours a day?

I hear lip service from Nobama/Maobama about cutting taxes to bring our businesses back but don't see him acting on it.  He's a one-termer.  Carter got us in a heap of trouble which Reagan (I know union employees aren't fond of him) had to get us out of.  All Nobama is doing is having construction/building jobs sprout up here and there.  And where does the money come from to pay for his multi-trillion dollar spending?  You got it - us.  Those jobs will eventually fizzle out, our country will be poorer and those people will once again be unemployed.. 

Dems coined the phrase Voodoo Economics for Reagan's Trickle Down Economics.  Whether or not you liked the man, he did a world of good for this country.  He did cut capital gains taxes and cut taxes for the rich.  Trickle down 101:  You cut taxes for the rich, they can afford to hire more employees, more often than not, at better wages.  Unemployment is down.  People go out and spend more money because they are employed and can afford to.  During Reagan's terms in office, he cut taxes immensely yet the government took in more money.  People would much rather spend their money the way they want than have the government take it and spend it.  

Folks, we work for our government.  Our government should be working for us.  We should not live in fear of the IRS.  I attended a TEA party on April 15 and will attend more such events.  We should have a government for the people, of the people and by the people.  The protest was very peaceful and guess what?  Not a bit of litter was left to be found when it ended, like the disgrace that was left after the inauguration in Washington, DC. 

We are getting so far away from a constitutional government, it's not funny.  Actually, my opinion is that we are currently a socialist government.  You know the next step after socialism?  Communism. 

I read the most recent list of who they consider a terrorist.  Hoarding food?  Um, yep.  Better buy it now in case a depression hits.  Glad I have a breadmaker.  Wouldn't want to have to spend $50 on a loaf of bread.  Buying lots of ammo?  Sure, but then again, we do competition shooting.  Guns?  Yeah, we have our share, but variety is the spice of life (Hubby bought me a Macarov but I didn't care for the way it operated (too hard to load the mag), especially after the slide came back and sliced my thumb open 5 times, bad lacerations - my fault, was handling it wrong, so I got a Glock).  My husband is an Iraqi war vet.  That makes us both domestic terrorists.  Yet neither one of us even has the heart to even discipline our dogs.  We're both very gentle people.  Of course if someone broke into our home, we would defened ourselves. 

I'm sorry for the rant but I just don't see Nobama caring much about outsourcing.  I really really really hope I am wrong and what he is doing for our country is the right thing but I truly resent being labeled a domestic terrorist because I see us headed for a depression and am stocking up on food, and my husband happened to be in the military during the Gulf war. 

Thanks for listening. 

My word can you ever rant.  But you don't seem so great at sticking to facts.  I read the posts you paraphrased and do not agree with your synopsis.  She did not say you were a cliche, among other things....she said you were using a cliche.  Superior intellect?  Huh?  Where'd you get that?  She stated she liked western history.  Just because someone likes to read doesn't mean they are boasting that they are superior.  How silly!!!

... if he truly said that or if Bush forced him to say it, so we can show how *honest* we were when we promised we'd leave when the *Iraqis* wanted us out.  The timing of this is just too ironic, considering it's on the heels of Murtha's PLAN involving Iraq.  It seems to be more of a response to an angry America than an actual plan.

It's really sad to be this skeptical, but unfortunately, I can't take anything involving Bush at face value, considering the numbers of lies the world has been fed from this administration.  By extension, I have to be suspect of things said by Iraqui leaders, who may be spoon-fed what they're *allowed* to say in their new *democracy* (promoting, of course, freedom of speech)!

What has our country become?  I always knew that politicians were crooks, but for them to run our country into the ground just to line their own pockets.....it just absolutely disgusts me.  All these politicians who received significant money from these companies......do you think they will suffer.  No....it will be us who pay for all of this.  Government as a whole has royally screwed us all with this.

This whole bail out thing has me so fuming mad I can't hardly see straight.  I'm terrified that if we don't do it....we will collapse.  I'm terrified that if we do it....it will only slow down but the collapse will still come...only later.  I'm mad that they want to bail them out and screw the rest of us.  I truly hope that there is another solution to this crisis other than a bail out. 

I want the phuckers who deliberately screwed us through their own greed....I want them to pay for this.  I want them to be held accountable.  Instead, they lined their pockets, get bailed out, and it is the little people that lose out. 

I am sick to death of hearing politicians getting on TV and blaming the other party when they themself received a substantial amount of money from these banks going under that are currently wanting bailed out.  Stop playing the blame game and just come up with a plan that will benefit the tax payers and not just the big wigs who screwed us in the first place!  Stop pointing fingers, grow up, and think of our country and not your own personal bank account. 

If I see Obama point his finger at another person again instead of taking a good look in the mirror at himself.....I seriously will scream.  He has received so much money from these people and yet he claims no blame at all.  What an arrogant b@st@rd!!!  What ever happened to taking responsibility for your actions?  I guess that doesn't exist anymore....just blame it on the next sucker.

A government big enough to give you everything you want is strong enough to take everything you have. Sad...

as many countries that have hostages by these pirates....you would think these pirates would be taken out.  I mean...we know where they live, etc.  It seems kind of crazy that a group of somali pirates can terrorize several countries to taking over ships.  Maybe if ship crews were taught how to use guns and each ship was armed heavily and they could blow these pirates out of the water before they even get aboard......

You would just think something would be done about these A--holes. 

I believe the biggest problem our world is facing right now is overpopulation.  I would think even the Lord would recognize that. That said, I would also comment that this woman's genitals as well as her husband's are under their own personal control, not the Lord's.

My other thought is that it seems likely that you would ever really really get to know any of your children while they were growing up with that many kids.  My boyfriend is from a family of 8 children and he and his brothers all agree that they were basically raised by their older sisters and had no real quality relationship with their mother until they were much older.  I'm not saying that is automatically the case, but simply often turns out to be the case.
