really, well I'll declare - I learn something new everyday. that makes sense though since it seems that every year there is a deficit and every year rates go up. of course that's not true, so are they making up deficits when they raise rates?

Whew, did you nail it! How in the world can stone-cold hearts be offended over anything? The ol' "I'm offended" line by them will never fly by me again.

"He (Sylvester) said what if somebody wanted to display the Iraq flag or advertise the Ku Klux Klan rally that is planned for Saturday in the park across the street from the post office. If you take one, then you have to take them all,"

Bull - last time I looked, we were in AMERICA - we're supposed to be allowed to pick and choose, especially when it comes to topics specifically about America. If that bozo's statement was true, we would have to fly the Iraqi flag over the freakin' White House if someone asked...

"...Maybe someone should suggest she look up the Constitution and figure out which amendment that might be..."

You need to refer to the old Soviet quasi-constitution if you want to find it expressed in so many words.

Liberals are referring, of course, to their out of context, tortured reading of Jefferson’s remarks regarding the separate domains of church and state when they misinterpret the First Amendment.

Funny how they never take Jefferson’s much less ambiguous remarks regarding "Freemen never being debarred the use of arms..." when they pontificate on the Second Amendment.

Filthy communist bastards.

Liberals are lying traitors who are richly deserving of the hangman’s tender attentions. I hope to live long enough to see trainloads of them sentenced to stand that shock before I move on to what comes next.

If they don't like "In God We Trust" why do they accept cash?

In The Washington Times (Oct. 30, '02): "The NFL insists it is committed to hiring more minorities . . ."
Mehri and Cochran want that rewards are provided for teams who hire minorities as coaches.

I've problems with the post office Amongo others, how does the post office decided on the design of the stamps? I recall a while back here on FR many wanted a great WWII hero honored. I don't know if he ever was, but James Dean and other celebrities along with scores of unknows have had their faces shown.

"This is a proud moment for the Postal Service, the Muslim community, and Americans in general as we issue a postage stamp to honor and commemorate two important Islamic celebrations," said Azeezaly S. Jaffer, Vice President, Public Affairs and Communications for the Postal Service.

You tell them no, moron. Like flying the Iraqi flag in a US post office is a valid comparison to posting the motto that is already on US currency.
