Willie, one day you will shock me and post a positive article. Does a black cloud follow you around ?
To: John Lenin
Does a black cloud follow you around ?No, I simply don't have my head stuck in the sand.
To: Willie Green
Not to mention the $17 trillion in Social Security funds that has been spent and the $5 trillion of accumulated debt. Just leave it to the future to deal with.

Willie...
Pay no attention to detractors that would live with their heads in the sand. Bad news makes them unhappy, so please do not bring it to their attention. The world is nothing but sweetness and light, if we only ingore the ugly, all is beautiful.

What a bummer! I just read at angrydem site that there is a call for 11/29/02 to be a INTERNATIONAL BUY NOTHING DAY. It links with some commie site that would also like for no one to buy Christmas gifts. I'm sure that they have a good reason and will try to save this world.

Let me give you a little hint about life Willie. If you fill your head with negative thoughts, you become a negative person and no one in their right mind will want to be around you.
To: John Lenin
If you fill your head with negative thoughts, Me? Negative?
Nah! I'm happy as a clam!
Nothing titillates me more than shining the light of truth on las cucarachas
and watching them try to skidaddle away from the attention.
To: Willie Green
Yea Willie you are such a happy guy you post articles to pull everybody down to your level of depression. It's a typical trait of your average psychotic nutcase liberal or greenie.

Government Posts $54 billion Budget Deficit.Don't worry. We'll just print more money.

Our jobs have been moving out of the country for a long time now. This is nothing new. Go to the store and look at where all the products are made, it ain't america.
To: John Lenin
Frankly, I was always under the impression that one defining trait of liberals was diversion of attention away from issues with personal attacks.
Since you obviously don't want to discuss the budget deficit, I guess that YOU'RE the one who fits in that category.
To: John Lenin
Our jobs have been moving out of the country for a long time now. This is nothing new. Go to the store and look at where all the products are made, it ain't america.This article deals with the federal BUDGET deficit, not the trade deficit.
I guess a dimocrap wouldn't know the difference.
To: Willie Green
Doesn't matter. All your posts are meant to bring people down in some way. You must lead a miserable life because you reflect it in your choice of articles.

Here's a much gloomier story for those of us who would prefer to become more aware of our country's problems (in hopes of our collectively tackling them) rather than think of sweet nothings most of the time in hopes that such problems will evaporate. This week the U.S. national debt just reached an all time high of $6.3 trillion dollars:

When will baby boomers start retiring in droves and trying to collect social security at taxpayers' expense? By the end of the decade?
To: Willie Green
Sorry Willie,
Articles about the federal deficit are only permitted when there is a Democrat President and/or Congress.
Please feel free to post about deficits in California.

Most Americans would love it if their debt was just 17% of their yearly salary. The debt is nothing to be afraid of at 17% of GDP, matter of fact it has kept the liberals in check from spending even more money on worthless social programs.
Make that debt payments.
