So you can bring the tax dollars in the mix but I cant mention how were killing living kids like Sun Hudson?

Ok since were on the tax dollar subject lets talke about the 15 billion in pork that got shoved through.

http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2004-11-21-budget-bill-extras_x.htm


$75,000 for renovating the Merry Go Round Playhouse in Auburn, N.Y.
$100,000 for a weather museum in Punxsutawney, Pa.
$800,000 for "soybean rust research" in Ames, Iowa.
$75,000 for "hides and leather research" in Wyndmoor, Pa.
$1,593 for potato storage in Madison, Wis.
$1 million for a world birding center, Texas.
$150,000 to pay for beaver management and damage in Wisconsin.
$200,000 for the American Cotton Museum in Greenville, Texas.
$100,000 for a swimming pool in Ottawa, Kan.
$70,000 for a "Paper Industry International Hall of Fame" in Appleton, Wis.
$1.5 million for the Rep. Richard Gephardt Archive at the Missouri Historical Society.

Those are some of the pork projects going on right now...which one is your favorite? I like the Paper Industrys Hall of Fame the best (sarcasm).

I'm bringing the tax issue into the debate as it pertains to abortion. You're chasing a red herring. We all agree that government spends to much money on junk. Do you also agree that abortion should not be federally funded? Or do you favor government funding abortions? That's a pretty simple straight forward question regarding abortion, which is the topic of this thread.

Your line of reasoning is rambling and disjointed. Which of those items fund the murder of people?

You are off topic.

In a past line of work I would have described your speech as "loose and tangential". You have hear this before I bet.
