You could have heard a pin drop.

Reminded me of the time I walked into a bar on the south side of Chicago once. It was the first time I had been there and I didn't know anyone in the place and I didn't quite fit in. The music stopped. People ended their conversation and began staring at me. I got a 6-pack to go and damn near sprinted out of the place. That quiet.

1. That's because the American public
   
believes the myth of the plucky little democracy fighting for it's life. There is no such thing as a true democracy that is also a theocracy, and Israel has been well-funded from the start. However, it still doesn't give it's holocaust survivors enough to live on and is stealin resources from the Palestinians to support their standard of living; including overusing the water table.


Frankly, cutting their aid budget in favour of helping Africa get its house in order is a better use of resources.

4. Here's a scenario I see building up for next year:
   
The Republicans nominate Cain.

Ron Paul decides to run independent.

The teabaggers go for Cain.

Paul picks up the libertarians and some lefties.

Obama takes the moderate Dems.

Whichever way the election goes, about two-thirds of Americans are unhappy with the result.

Where do we go from there?

A small camp fire so far.

How is that possible, I could have sworn us teabaggers were racist so we would never vote for a black man.
 :whatever:
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

This one is easy. We give foreign aid to the countries that support our way of life and vote with us at the UN.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

I guess PDJane doesn't realize that Israel is a secular government, not a theocracy.

44 Billion and all we have are people still too stupid to live.

“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

I walked into a black bar once.....


I sat down at the bar, enjoyed my drink, and was invited over to a table with a bunch of nice women. They were older then me but we all had a fun conversation and I left a couple of hours later.


If the DUmmy's story is even a little true I would love to know what he did when he opened the door to make the room go quiet.

The assless chaps were probably not a good idea.  :whistling:
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”
