I think the best single comment in the whole post was this: Whip David Bonnier.

To reduce the heat on Republicans afraid of democrats, I suggest joining a party that has neither name.

Comments on capital gains. Don't you enjoy having greedy crooks take "unearned income" of yours, when that money is only on paper and has never, and may never cross your palm, and under the present financial conditions, your remaining share may very well disappear into the ether.

The government however takes its share even after yours has disappeared into the ether, and you can bet, will sooner or later insure that you are beaten over the head with their share of your money. It's the kind of stuff that, should you attempt to explain it, you would be laughed to scorn, by anyone who was not already a victim of the system.

Have you given any thought what-so-ever, about what you pay capital gains taxes with. Why cash of course, and if you think capital gains are cash, you need some capital gains training. An example might be breaking up a partnership, by giving one partner the cash value of the business, and the other partner gets all the bills, and the inventory, which could end up being worthless, but on paper, is half the business.

Lastly the word (all) should have followed churchillbuff, but never showed up in the preview even with a semi-colon separating them, so these are addressed to all not just to you, and if by some strange reason an all does show up the the posted reply, than just ignore this Lastly. So now we find there is no such all, maybe I should try AWL, Nah.
