I hope this is good enough

Posted seven years later and not a single comment on the article... hmm... ;)

(And that's just my initial thoughts. But I'll take your word that the vid is authentic, 'cause I know that's your job.)

Saddam let It be known before He died that He had spread the rumor

Got a video tape? ;)

I hope this is good enough, Bush didn't lie, Just a bunch of know It alls who weren't in the loop.

No one is self reliant. We all need each other to survive.
That's the way it's been since the dawn of man and no matter how hard some would argue to the contrary, it remains a universal truth.

That doesn't give you or anyone else the right to use gov't force to make others pay for your silly programs.

Because if that's OK, they can use gov't force to make you pay for their silly programs. Oh, right, they are. War in Iraq, corporate welfare, the massive bailout, weapons, the CIA, lots o' things.

Happy paying for those? You should be thrilled. It's the system you support, working exactly as you want it to.

Reagan never balanced the Federal budget. In fact, the budget deficits ballooned during his Presidency as a result of a defense buildup and reduced revenues.

Clinton did end his final year with a significant budget surplus. For the first time, the "National Debt Clock" in New York actually stopped. Unfortunately, instead of restructuring and paying down the US debt, George W. and the Republican-controlled Congress approved tax cuts just weeks before the attacks of 9/11/2001 and the subsequent economic downturn.

The deficits - and the national debt - have been going up ever since.

Of course, Clinton never balanced the Federal budget either. A) Because much of the "balance" came in what is usually called "out years," the time after the particular president leaves office, some of which would only be happening now. B) Since the budget is redone every year, a myriad of things change, and do every year. C) The "savings" were based on overly rosy economic forecasts which over-estimated Federal tax revenue. D) The so-called accounting rules that the Federal gov't uses would get you thrown into prison for the rest of your life if you used them. It's called criminal fraud. E) This doesn't even begin to take into account "off-budget" items that require Federal money, but that the gov't has decided do not need to appear on the budget anymore.

If Obama really was born in Kenya it will open the way for Arnold Schwarzenegger to run for presidency...

While I certainly agree that the accounting practices of the Federal Government are voodoo, those that they do use indicate that your statement A) is not completely accurate.

The actual reported on-budget balance of receipts and expenditures for Fiscal Year 1999 was a surplus of $1.9 Billion. In FY 2000, the surplus was $86.4 Billion. In 2001, the balance had slipped to a deficit of $32.4 Billion. By FY 2004, the reported on-budget deficit had ballooned to nearly $568 Billion.

The full summary may be found at this link. When you consider your point E) - which I also don't dispute - it's damn depressing.

Be a slave and submit to force and danger or move to an island? Hmmmmmm.....

You sound like some schoolyard bully of the age of...........

You can't do that without disturbing the peace though can you?

You'll always demand that you will find 'peace' and 'harmony' via the use of force and aggression.

You'll never be allowed by your own premises to have any sort of society where free men and women deal with each other by the consent of their own minds.

You may not be religious (I am not) but you share all of their mystical premises. You believe man somehow doesn't belong to himself, that his / her body, is not his own. He belongs to your god or government.

if you want to be truly free, then you have to move some remote island and have
nothing to do with any country, and will live by what you cultivate, hunt, fish,
do your own clothes, not buy or trade anything, but do everything you need by yourself. otherwise you are part of some society and can´t claim to be free
