While you might find it a good use of congressional time to investigate a private sector professional sports league, there are those of us who believe that the responsibilty of running this country is slightly more important than whether or not Roger Clemons did roids.

Liberalism = big government runamuck! FLOL!

They think that we do not know what is good for ourselfs. They know better and want to control us. They can't control their own people they need to keep away from me. I don't suffer their stupidity well at all. They want to have a universal health care system. Have anyone of you see one that worked well.

People in Canada come to the states to get taken care of. It takes a year to get something done if you need it there.

Oh, also, you pay out the arse for that to. That 150billion that they say will go for what they want comes out of our pockets. They think they can tax their way out of all their problems. That is BS. They need to live to their budget and cut their payments to the golf course or teapot gallery. That is what they tack on to bills.

Politicians are leaches, they want to suck the life right out of us..I dont care what party they are. all I am going to say about this topic is, we need all new people running things and everything should be voted on by the people, the government should never be allowed to make up the rules as they go, the people should be the ones making the big decisions ( War, Drilling for oil, health care, Social security and what not) they can draw up a bill, advertise thier thoughts, push thier agenda and ultimately we make the decision in a vote, and we pay them to make sure our will gets done. and we should be the ones deciding thier pay, and if and how much their raises are.

I know, I know, I am simple minded, but hey, I am free to be a dumb hick if I choose to.

I agree with you Roids, but that will only happen if we take up arms and take our government back. The Politicians will not allow us to think. (politics = poli = many and tics= bloodsucker) They have created a good thing for themselfs and we did not stop it so they reap the benifits of it.

It gets me hot to think that someone elected gets in and does nothing but receives a check for the rest of his/hers life if not elected again. Insurance and all.

Ok, now let's talk about organized religion!! Ya baby, that's a hot one!



"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, bourbon in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

I kinda like what Roids said too, I just can't imagine it being practical. We elect representatives to go to D.C. and do this voting for us. But something happens to them in D.C. and they end up spending money like drunken sai.... err ... liberals.

With Barack HUSSEIN Obama creating so much interest in this election, maybe people will pay more attention to the issues and each candidates solution, and maybe, just maybe, a bit of logic will creep into voters consciousness and they will vote conservative. Before you call me crazy, go ask a fervent Barack HUSSEIN Obama supporter if he or she is onboard with illegal aliens having drivers licenses and all the benefits that go along with the privilege of owning a drivers license. The ones I have asked say "no", which leads me to think that logic will again rule this November's election.

The problem is that people are not paying attention. That is clearly evidenced by the interest Obama garnners. Spout some rhetoric, be a minority, and people are lead like sheep to the slaught... I mean polls.

All looks and no substance.

I asked a buddy last night (liberal) if he would vote for Barack if Barack was a friend of Timothy McVay (think Oklahoma City bombing). Of course he looked at me in disgust and said "no way". I then explained who Bill Ayers is and I could see him begin to think.

So you're probably right Petrified, people just aren't paying attention yet.

Hardly anyone thinks of what they are doing. Brain washed and looking for something that shines and sounds pretty. Common sense would tell you that you are being led. To many listen but do not hear and look but do not see. Big differance.

The schools of higher learning have taken away common sense. They don't want you to think for yourself. I chose not to be led and to think for myself. Get a liberal to sit down and just listen and hear and you can change them to see what is going on. Most don't care what happens to their freedoms they just want want pretty and sound good so they don't have to defend anyone of their selfs.

Bottom line is that the upper democratic party wants you to fear everything and then you will do what they say. They don't think you can think for yourself and that they know better what you need.

They might win and have their 4 or 8 years and then the Republican party will learn to appreciate what they used to have but it will be hard to get it back.

I tend to agree. Sometimes you have to go through a Jimmy Carter to get to a Ronald Reagan.

I have a more moderate approach to the whole lib vs con debate on most resource issues...


Go ahead and take what you need, but at least try to put the land back in the shape you found it.

The extremists on both sides scream the loudest so moderation is left hanging because moderates are, well, moderate. We don't scream and shout and so we don't have good sound bites.

As far as Rush, I listened to him for about three weeks, years ago, and laughed every time. There is no discourse or exchange of views at all that I could find. If you are not goose-stepping along to his tune, then you must be anti-American and stupid to boot. At least G man(Liddy) could concede a point now and then or say "Let's agree to disagree". Rush is like the Dr. Laura of politics, good for a laugh but not something I would take seriously.





Lord, help me to be the person my psychiatrist medicates me to be.

Some food for thought. I am checking this out now. Read on. The dog will be beaten until dead.
=====================================================================================================
Obama's bill S2433 would require the U.S. to initially direct .7 percent of our GNP into the United Nations coffers for distribution as they see fit, for "food" to third world nations. Under earlier agreements this would evolve into a national tax on the U.S. with the UN attempting to levy this on all first world nations.

The U.N. would have the power to increase this rate of taxation.

The U.S. would be required to surrender some of its sovereignty over foreign aid by putting it under UN control. The bill would force the U.S. to sign onto the U.N.'s Millennium Declaration, which would commit us not only to "banning small arms and light weapons" but also to adhere to the International Criminal Court Treaty and the Kyoto Protocol.

http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_SN_2433.html

Detailed Summary

Global Poverty Act of 2007 - Directs the President, through the Secretary of State, to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to further the U.S. foreign policy objective of promoting the reduction of global poverty, the elimination of extreme global poverty, and the achievement of the United Nations Millennium Development Goal of reducing by one-half the proportion of people, between 1990 and 2015, who live on less than $1 per day.

Requires the strategy to contain specific and measurable goals and to consist of specified components, including: (1) continued investment or involvement in existing U.S. initiatives related to international poverty reduction and trade preference programs for developing countries; (2) improving the effectiveness of development assistance and making available additional overall United States assistance levels as appropriate; (3) enhancing and expanding debt relief as appropriate; (4) mobilizing and leveraging the participation of businesses and public-private partnerships; (5) coordinating the goal of poverty reduction with other internationally recognized Millennium Development Goals; and (6) integrating principles of sustainable development and entrepreneurship into policies and programs.

Sets forth specified reporting requirements. Directs the Secretary of State to designate a coordinator who will have primary responsibility for overseeing and drafting the reports, as well as responsibility for helping to implement recommendations contained in the reports.

Defines specified terms.

Status of the Legislation

Latest Major Action: 4/24/2008: Placed on Senate Legislative Calendar under General Orders. Calendar No. 718.

More on Barack Obama's S.2433 : Global Poverty Act

We know for a fact that this bill will cost America $845 billion above and beyond what America already spends on global aid in the next thirteen years. America will be locked in to giving .7 percent of the U.S. gross national product. That in itself is scary enough, but there is way more to Obama's bill. It also locks us into United Nations Millennium Summit. Cliff Kincaid from Accuracy in Media <http://www.aim.org/> is all over this bill. He writes:

The bill institutes the United Nations Millennium Summit goals as the benchmarks for U.S. spending.

"It is time the United States makes it a priority of our foreign policy to meet this goal and help those who are struggling day to day," a statement issued by supporters, including Obama, said.

Specifically, it would "declare" that the official U.S. policy is to eliminate global poverty, that the president is "required" to "develop and implement" a strategy to reach that goal and requires that the U.S. efforts be "specific and measurable."

Kincaid said that after cutting through all of the honorable-sounding goals in the plan, the bottom line is that the legislation would mandate the 0.7 percent of the U.S. GNP as "official development assistance."

"In addition to seeking to eradicate poverty, that (U.N.) declaration commits nations to banning 'small arms and light weapons' and ratifying a series of treaties, including the International Criminal Court Treaty, the Kyoto Protocol (global warming treaty), the Convention of Biological Diversity, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women and the Convention of the Rights of the Child," he said.

Those U.N. protocols would make U.S. law on issues ranging from the 2nd Amendment to energy usage and parental rights all subservient to United Nations whims.

Kincaid also reported Jeffrey Sachs, who runs the "Millennium Project," confirms a U.N. plan to force the U.S. to pay 0.7 percent of GNP would add about $65 billion a year to what the U.S. already donates overseas.

And the only way to raise that funding, Sachs confirms, "is through a global tax, preferably on carbon-emitting fossil fuels," Kincaid writes.

On the forum run by Americans for Legal Immigration PAC, <http://www.alipac.org/> one writer reported estimates of taxes from 35 cents to $1 dollar a gallon on gasoline would be needed.

Personally, I am thinking that the majority of the American public deserves Obama, they are so unhappy about the Republicans and Bush..let them have 4 or 8 years with the liberal Dems..they wont fix anything any better than the republicans I dont think, none of them want to do anything except have power and money, i swear folks, the communists couldnt take us over in war, but they are by god going to take us over through our own democracy if we dont wake the heck up and start voting in the right people for once.
lifers, i dont like the idea anymore, i feel all terms should be limited just like the president..maybe a senator can do 12 years, but no more than 8 consecutive years. after 12 they are out of there and on a modest retirement, just enough to live...by the way, why dont we get the same retirement plan they have?

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away
We better stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

Bush has doomed the Republican party for at least one cycle. Get ready for history in the making. I am so excited to be a part of it. It's like Will said " I'm coming, I'm coming, you can't stop me, you can't stop me...". Obama will be in the house so please welcome and show maximum respect to the next president of the U.S. of A.

Nothing to fear, but fear itself
