  • When will we ever learn to stay out of other Countries affairs. We let Bush get by with the same type election as Tehran. What short memories we have?

  • It is a fact that smokers don't live as long so they don't draw SS for 30 years. People that don't smoke die from the same illness. They also get treated so that cost is the same. Smokers are a less burden on taxes plus they pay much more every pack they smoke. It just depends on where you look for your "DATA".

  • Why should they stand up?

    You're a bitch.

    Watch this America:

    watch?v=QXEZSTQwGh8

  • search: "Republican Attack Ad 2009"

  • No God is real. All religion is created by man.

  • Time for mandatory drug testing for all these public "officials" running us into the ground!

    It's gotta be dope!

  • I don't where you get your lack of facts from concerning Christianity and Islam .I tell by what you put down that you don't understand any of what you put down. Let's start with something simple. Would you consider yourself to be a good person?

  • I don't have proof that Bush or Barak Obama .I just got that they said they are "Christian" with no actual testimony that is Biblical. You are also misquoting Jesus .Get the KJV reading .Muslims fight "holy wars" Christians fight "spiritual wars". NO its not the same. I Evangelize homosexuals too. Jesus said , "Go ye into all the world , and preach the gospel to EVERY creature." in Mark 16:15. That is what I do .I follow Jesus and I am a disciple (follower) of Him.

  • Its not misleading when he was very clear what tax he was talking about.

    How they are affected by any other taxes changes from person to person.

    Some will save more money than others do.

    Say I dont smoke, as the majority of america doesnt.

    I am not affected by the tax, and in fact, if it cuts down further on smokers, I may save money because less smokers to be paid out insurance money to deal with self inflicted illness.

    May lower rates or keep them more stable at least

  • But then what was the point of referencing the party hes going to?

    Back to the stimulus, you keep forgetting that more than just the stimulus has been spent right now to boost the economy.

    We have spent more than 44bil overall to different parts of the economy. The stimulus was only one part of a bigger effort.

    I explained how making/saving jobs is defined.

    Will try again.

    You normally get rid of 500 jobs from lack of funding, but through stimulus you only lose 200. You saved 300 jobs.
