During the campaign of 2008 I listened to what everyone had to say. Ron Paul actually made the most sense to me of any of the candidates. Granted a lot of people call him a whack job because of his radical stance on how he would go about fixing things, however after observing years of band-aids being placed on government programs over the years it may just be time to "build a new one" so to speak. My 2 cents anyhow.

I think most of the politicians are out of touch with "real" America, no matter how many tours they do across the nation, or how many times they shake a hand.
 
Remember Joe the Plumber? The media put him through so much crap just for asking a question about taxes that we all wanted to know the answer to.
 
Seems Joe has been doing some traveling and learning...
Interesting website about "Joe" here:

Radical is what is needed.  Not all of the pussyfooting we see.

Hey! Let's not pay down any debt! Let's raise the amount we're allowed to borrow!

Sound fiscal thinking!

Hmmm, it would appear that Club Gitmo is relocating to Illinois. This will no doubt aggravate to no end those who thought they would just be released back into the wild.

And how do we propose to raise this $100 billion? They just took 'leftover' TARP monies and created a new stimulus package with it . . . and now this too? I think perhaps taking the 'leftover' $200 Billion and giving it to the Chinese to pay some debts woulda been smart - or better yet, just taken it back outta circulation altogether (because the TARP monies were 'fake' so to speak) to strengthen the dollar a bit woulda been smarter - but . . . I ain't in a position to do such things, and my particular Congresspersons don't really seem to wanna hear about fiscal responsibility these days . . .

*sigh*

TiFe - I gotta take your rainbow and ponies advice. I'm gonna go home early today and play with my little ones and quit thinkin' 'bout this shit for at least a little whiles . . . .

have fun. our parents had to deal with similar issues like what we are dealing with now: I just want shield my kids for now and not be some crusty old complainer.
 
I like the coke commercial where the dude helps everyone and everyone else pitches in and the world is a happier place.
 
In my belief system, we believe if you speak it, it will come. Positive and negative. It seems to be working to my advantage to be a bit peppier so I am going to continue to be a positive force even in the face of despair.
 
Y'all enjoy the holidays, I really miss this time of year in W.Pa.

OK Guys.... I for one, want a powerful ally in that region as just one reason. If you haven't figured it out as yet, the U.S.of A. is one of the BIGGEST arms dealers in the world. Most of what we sell is MADE here by Americans. So let's stop the manufacturing of material by Americans and LAY them off... GREAT!!! Just what we need. Now read this... if you please...
 
 
1. Israel
$2.4 billion
Virtually all of this money is used to buy weapons (up to 75% made in the U.S.). Beginning in 2009, the U.S. plans to give $30 billion over 10 years.
 
That is money COMING BACK to us. If there is one thing I have learned about us.... WE ARE NOT A PEACEFUL PEOPLE... Never have been and never will be. Our military is buried or missing ALL OVER our globe.
I also give the Israelis credit. They have 7373000 people...less than many of our cities... so maybe Health Care is not a real issue with them. Their standard of living is not that far off from ours. approx $28k/2008 and a bit over 10% under the poverty level. We have 13-17% under the poverty level. We are not that much different.
My hand is up in approval of the money we send to Israel. I do wonder about some others we send money to instead of actual items they need... medical, food, help with infrastructure and education. It isn't hard to see someone in the Sudan who needs shelter, food, medicine and clothing... give them that.
Ok will stop for now   :-X
