^^ Thanks "bum"

How could you guys forget me so soon?

I'd like a position related to the auto industry please
Just looking out for the people I'm gonna be working with

I think all the ambassadors probably need some sort of track near them - all in the interest of promoting good relations of course.
You give me ambassadorship to France and you won't have to worry about spending the money to build a track near by....I'll just have to make a monthly (US gov sponsored of course) trip to the N

Hmmmm we're not even in office and we're already looking for ways to "extend" our jobs to cover personal pleasures.

I think I understand the present crop of pols a little better.

Ok King David...... (can i roll my eyes any more?)

even though i agreed with your ideas, and theoretically they could work if we were all living in a perfect utopia; we arent. Politics/govt is a bit more complicated than I think you give them credit for. Delete welfare? ( I WISH!!) however families will suffer, safe to say DIE without it. (and not just lazy good for nothing lowlifes) the welfare system is miles more important than you think. A flat tax ( I WOULD KILL FOR IT) has been contemplated before, however it is just not practical, the gov't would collapse into poverty not to mention democrats everywhere would literally blow their brains out. The rest of your points are hilarious, and I agree with many of them, but to put it bluntly...Many people agree with what you have to say and others dont at all, that creates a balance that is the world today.

Good points though I have a feeling you like elephants...

umm been drinking, didn't even bother with the whole thing. Had to stop at the pledge crap.

"under God" implies a government endorsed religion. The 1st amendment clearly states "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof . . ."

however, by adding the "under God" to the US pledge in 1954 (under the pressure of the Knights of Columbus...must have been an election year), Congress pretty much gave the finger to the Constitution and added it anyway.

has nothing to do with being PC or whatever bullshit you want to call it, the united states government should always be atheist.

Not to say it's members can't have religion, but US law should not be determined by any religion whatsoever.


(btw, if this gets sent to political forum, I hope someone has my back )

edit: someone pointed out I typed 84, shoulda been 54

First, I'm gonna IBTM

Second, I'm gonna tell you you've got some political talk, but not enough monetary walk. . . pony up for a membership.

Third, I'm sayin' I'm going to roll through this sucker with my scalpel later. Why later? Well. . .

Fourth, I'm going to bed.

Hey 8D - I know Chazmo too

Not sure what happened in 1984 but we were saying "under god" in the pledge of allegiance quite a bit before that.

Wildncrazy.

I'm not asking for much; just the contract to build the active-online voting machines and software.
