Lol. You are right. Don't drink and math...
That does make a lot more sense. However I don't think any Democrat will vote for it, since the only thing it limits is.... well... everything they have done in the last 80 years. Since it has to...
1. So the President doesn't wield the authority of that office of the US? The President, whoever it is, is the embodiment of that authority. So I am more of a patriot than you because I am a...
Hot off the presses:
218-210, which means that 32 Republicans voted against it or didnt vote.
Is this a step forward for the country, a failure for the Republicans or Democrats, or pointless...
Just FYI, this is from Feb 2011. I don't know if it has changed.
"At most, only about $7 billion of the $814 billion in economic recovery money awarded under the 2009 federal law hasn't already...
I wasn't aware of any substantial amounts of unused stimulus money laying around. Do you happen to have a source?
It all depends on the wording, I guess. I tend to not support the BBA, since I think it is reactionary and will handicap America in the future. It might be possible to create an Amendment that was...
The 8th biggest hypocrite in the world out of 6+ billion people. That's pretty bad. I give you credit for marking him up that high...
If only 1 percent of Muslims support extremism or terrorism, then I would say that Islam must be a very peaceful religion.
In the time of the Crusades there was no such thing as Protestantism,...
Here it is: Patriot - noun - one who supports his or her country and supports its interests and authority
Does that make all the Obama haters unpatriotic because they do not respect his authority?...
Lol. I didn't know the Koran mentioned the Constitution.
There is no clear definition of any of those. Do you think Democrats and Republicans have the same view of patriotism? Even the Supreme Court is split on views of the Constitution. Which views do...
I don't know where you get your numbers. There are between 1.2 and 1.5 billion Muslims in the world, of which 1% would be up to 15 million, not 1 million. As for Christian extremism and the...
I hadn't heard this yet. In general I avoid Beck's ilk, but in my daily news reading I stumbled upon this. He mocks the Norwegians for having political camps for teenagers, but his organization...
John Avlon is a conservative independent that worked for Giuliani's campaign in 2008 and is a staunch supporter of Reagan. He's not an economist, but he is pretty astute when it comes to the...
Addressing your first post: Bravo is referring to Islam, the second largest (and from what I've heard the fastest growing) religion in the world, not some dogma adhered to by only one person. It...
As plain as I can read it, you don't believe in freedom of religion, the foundation of the United States and you don't believe in the Constitution. How un-American does that make you?
"The...
I think we have reached an impasse. I don't know why you don't seem to believe I don't support entitlement cuts. I have said repeatedly that I do. I don't support the Tea Party's method. They...
This is where the profession of politics comes in. Compromise has always been required to get things done in Washington. Acting like petulant children with fingers in their ears is not the way...
So first of all, I was not debating the merits of Cut, Cap, and Balance. Cut, Cap, and Balance isn't a plan, because it would be voted on along party lines... HENCE A FAILURE with no chance. Even...
You might be right. I want the Republican party to return to fiscal conservativism, but the Tea Party is just too reactionary for me. That's not the way government should be run. Anything the...
As a quick qualification point, I am studying to be an economist at George Mason, the most laissez-faire economist program in the nation. In simple terms (I say that because I am over-simplifying a...
So my question for you is: What do you want to do about it? Are you going to eliminate the freedom of religion? Are you going to limit free speech? Are you going to stop letting people make their...
A GED is an alternative degree for primary or high school. It is usually regarded poorly since you can drop out of high school and still get one. Easily summed up: It is better than nothing, but...
There are about 100 members of the House that align themselves with the Tea Party. That is about 40% of Republicans in the House. I think the the election of these people did say something to the...
