    Did I say get rid of all government? Heck no. Good grief. LOL

    But the ROLE of government here is, IMO, WAY, WAY more involved in our lives than it should be. I believe in the individual and giving the individual as much personal liberty as possible. Because at our core, I know we are a GOOD people. We are not the people the news and our schools tells you we are.

    I do have several big guns and I am more than capable of using them to protect myself, my familiy and those I love. I PRAY that I never, ever have to.

    LOL. I love how you and the cheerleader think Iraq is a war comparable to WW2. I thought you said you knew your history? During WW2, our country mobilized on a massive scale. The US mobilized 92 ground combat divisions, a huge Navy and Air Force and the structures to move and supply it. This kind of mobilization requires huge efforts from industry... (Jobs, jobs, jobs...) Now granted, this money was provided from the public coffers, but it was spent, mostly, on things that created REAL jobs and products/services. The size of our force has barely changed for Iraq as it is a wholly differnt kind of conflict, that I personally belive is time to be done with. There has been nowhere near the amount of industry required to support opertations in Iraq/Afghanistan, compared to WW2.


    Again, with your "arguements" as proof.... Those who do not understand our history (IN CONTEXT) are doomed to repeat it.

    Agreed,
    One of the giant changes in the world since "the Wall" came a tumblin' down is the fact that we didn't have to produce /make/design materials/concepts or systems to keep the 'evil USSR' from taking over the planet.

    We now find out that they were indeed a paper tiger, but the industries that those shmucks forced us to build were great for our economy.

    GM, Raytheon, Martin, Lockheed all had HUGE government contracts and were giants among the economy here in So Cal. I can imagine that most of the workers never thought about what they did was really devoted to war.

    Do we need a good war to improve our economy?

    I pray that we don't, but sometimes it looks like that's what happens to get countries out of an economic funk.

    ------------------------

    Hey, if the 900,000,000 BO has promised to the Gaza Strip helps the Hamas, Hezbollah and PLO keep attacking Israel we stand to make the money back and then some, when we sell more arms and shiat that blows up in arms deals.

    Then we get blamed for selling them arms, while the American Public forgets that we sent those morons (GAZA) money that they just funnel into more terrorism! Not a blip on the screen from anyone about the nine hundred million dollars that we will give away-those are the kinds of investments that got us into trouble in the first place.


    Change? I don't think so.

    Its all part of distracting the public from the massive tax increases, and its targeting the middle class and poor.

    I heard that Kay King, lapdog for the SOTH -Nancy the blitherer-sent some really funny emails to the Air Force regarding their inability to furnish her with the G5 jets she 'needed' to get around.

    Very funny and very demanding.

    What a stupid pair of twits.

    Nancy the blitherer is third in line for the big chair. Of course she deserves a G5 and fighter jet escort to Calli every weekend, you cant expect her to stay in touch with her constituent's by flying comercial.

    Richard, Richard, tsk tsk, you must expand your reading library. Try this
