I've been bookmarking for so many years,that they're in the 10s of 1,000s;at the least.:-(
Goodnight and sweet dreams, onyx!
It was wonderful seeing you again :-)
You want to discuss the issues, or defend the indefensible? Make up your mind.
Facts really DO matter!
Got your call late? :-)
I dropped the damn Posse-matic in the bathtub...it was the far inferior 4000 series (no waterproofing).
I really gotta get some sleep. LOL
If you LIKE your money to be subject to institutionalized, government-sponsored counterfeiting, then you should be very happy right now.
It is a REQUIREMENT of the Constitution that we have a gold-backed currency. That didn't stop being a requirment, just because somebody said "I don't like it." It was circumvented so that certain large organizations and individuals could profit immensely.
I trust this doesn't REALLY matter to you.
Imagine you are in an airplane that is about to crash.
A ratty old parachute (Bush)
A fine French bedsheet that sorta looks like a parachute (Kerry)
A sales brochure for the perfect parachute (third party)
Facts DO matter!
If you'd like to disengage,I'll stop posting facts ,until the next time you want to do your goldbug routine. :-)
I'm off too.
Thanks...the truth needs to be said/written.:-)
Eeek... just looked at the time and I should go, too.
It was wonderful seeing you online tonight! Thanks for jumping in and bringing the smiles ;-)
Oh,my husband got me the new and improved model...but I still have to get some sleep.:-)
Great post!
I am posting the facts that:
1) The currency is deliberately corrupt, and will remain so for the foreseeable future because both parties want it that way.
2) The Constitution is not being studiously not enforced, and its key provision requiring a gold-backed currency, flouted.
3) The nation is destined for perpetual inflation as a result, and its citizens for increasingly lifelong indebtedness.
(All accessories to and apologists for the economic crimes of FDR, please take a bow.)
The constitution requires a gold-backed currency, since gold, unlike Federal Reserve "dollars", CANNOT be manufactured by an accounting trick, out of thin air.
Correction: 2) The Constitution is being studiously not enforced...
You have not made any effort to discuss issues. You have spent your time calling names and making rather strange comments. "Defend the indefensible"? To what do you refer? And just so you are historically accurate the 1986 tax reform bill reduced the number of categories of mariginal rates ...the 1981 tax bill actually reduced mariginal rates. Moreover those who call Reagan a pragmatist are more coprrect than you. He did have a core set of values but he also knew which battles to fight and which to let slide... Go ahead vote for any third party that you want to...I suspect that is what you have done for years. I on the other hand will work to get like minded people elected so that they can do some good. And by the way just in case you didn't know we are at WAR...that makes all the difference in the world to me. I want there to be a US left after the year 2005
I love Owens! Probably the best conservative candidate.
Great analogy...and for those who want better from congress start voting for better candidates for local and state elections...Bush would be irrelevant if the house and senate were solidly in a particular camp...and God please don't let it be demorat ( think back to Tip O'neill folks)
Owens-Santorum would work for me. But--could they WIN? The best candidate in the universe means nothing if they can't convince the mushy moderate fence-sitters to vote for them."
--Then how did Reagan, the only conservative ever elected as president, do it???
