Your Post 15 son.

No. No.

Yes. Yes. I will be working the rest of my life to pay into federal entitlement Ponzi schemes that send out checks to everyone regardless of backgrounds: veterans, hippies, illegal aliens, and everyone else who can fill out a few forms.

Again: my respect for what was accomplished is tempered by the specter of a federal hand wrapping around my throat and another federal hand reaching into my wallet.

Looking at your tagline, I get a funny feeling about you.

Funny about what? The GOP has more Senate seats to defend than the Dims do in 2010. When you consider Michael Steele's preoccupation with becoming a talking head rather than doing his job, plus the hordes of mindless Obama zombies coming out to vote again, things are going to get worse before they get better.

You are a liar.

Will you shut up now, or will you continue to lie and embarass yourself?

There’s no lumping in whatsoever in that post. One more time: WW2 vets came home and voted for Democrats who wanted to expand the welfare state, which has now culminated in a government where generational theft has become an institutionalized party. This money-grabbing is one of the main reasons we just had almost a million people attend tea parties this week.

Woke up to 6” of snow yesterday, and today it’s gonna hit 70+.

Managed to do well in a Vintage shoot yesterday in high winds with my .410 sxs, hope it’s better today.

I don’t consider keeping a contract with veterans to be welfare. I’m hoping you don’t either.

You have had it explained to you. Supporting our vets is not welfare. It is caring for those who have given their lives so that you can sit and whine. It has NOTHING to do with the welfare state.

Post #62 doesn’t have a damn thing to do with what we are discussing.

Are you stupid in addition to being an ungrateful sniveling punk?

She knows how to wield a shovel. Didn’t learn it digging a foxhole either. Must have learned it from lefties.

No thanks. I like to avoid exercises in futility.
