Because if we don’t, they’ll hate us. Oh, wait.....
Well, it's all rather complicated.
See, when you mix equal parts margarine, powdered laundry detergent and Rice Krispies together and then rub it on your elbows, and then lean on a large terra-cotta pot, you get this reaction that causes that sort of thing.
If I were you, I'd use live crickets and peanut butter instead.
Yes, I should have thought about that, my bad, but, things must be getting bad when we are even sick and tired of our own GOP party’s crap.
The rest of the psychos can sit on a spindle and twist.

Ha! Are the foot peddles powered by size 11 triple E’s?
Nope - water mill and grindstone...
I sent him/her/it a kind FRmail saying “come out and play”, but 10 days of lurking to come up with a one line vanity?
we will see.
We’re what’s known in the con industry as a soft touch. America is as a whole a bunch of nice people that want to see other people happy and healthy, it’s a good thing really, but it is a tad expensive.
The fact that moron congresscritters spend too much on domestic giveaways shouldn't be used as a talking point to hamstring foreign policy efforts. If this Republic falls, no one will say "They gave too much foreign aid," they will say "they killed themselves with bread and circuses, the same as the Romans."
Yes, how terrible that a politician should choose victory in a war. Truly tragic.
Cuz we’re still good guys.
But it’s still a stupid question, and would require a lengthy dissertation to answer - Time I do not have to spend on such as you. THUS:
ZOT!
Because it’s cheaper than fighting them in a war? Worked well in the Marshall Plan.

The question was a serious one and thankfully I was able to get fairly reasonable answers from the decent bloggers. Forgive me if I've posted in the wrong forum - perhaps you could guide me to the correct one?
I'm not a sour, selfish American, just a practical thinker finally coming of age where I'm starting to realize the importance of knowing how our government works. And yes, I am starting to wonder where my hard earned tax dollars are going and why my social class is shrinking.
It seems puzzling to me why most Americans, seemingly, don't understand or care that our government doesn't seem of sound practice (a trillion dollar debt?), and more importantly, why we let it happen.
Thanks to all who responded kindly to my question.
