Off the top of my head I disagree with the SS part of your statement. I pay into that. I have no problem with welfare or food stamps for those that are truly in need through no fault of their own. I am good with disability payments. I am alright with student grants. What pisses me off is people able to work but don't, generations of welfare recipients who know no better than to suck on my tit, people who make bad decisions over and over again but expect me to cover their nut, and paying for taking care of convicted felons. I am sure if I thought harder I could come up with some others. Basically those of us who work are screwed for those who want a free ride. And don't kid yourself, there are plenty of wealthy Americans who work the system for some added cake.

there is not much that makes Romney look any better than Obama and vica versa

where you are coming from and going to is pretty much irrelevant. Here is hoping you did not answer

them people are just looking for a reason to act all pissed off. I bet 99.9% of them never saw it anyway.

yeah, I wish we had some real time to hang out. Glad you got back home safe. And Cameron liked you relayed a happy birthday to him. Still thinking it was weak you weren't wearing some UF duds.

yep fire Dooley, Then ask yourself who you are going to hire. There is no quality head coach who sees UT as his dream job, that's the whole issue with a coach on Rocky Top. Fulmer looked at it as his dream job, To all the rest it would be a stepping stone, ala Kiffen. Did not get to watch but over the radio it sounded like more of the same old same old. Duce, tell Amanda to keep her chin up. was nice seeing you guys for a while today.

by now Slick Willie would be considered conservative.

and it shows how completely out of touch they all are. I make slightly less than 250K, I fully expect my taxes to go up. Both will have plenty of mumbo jumbo explaining to me why I did not get a tax increase though my taxes will rise. Seriously, 250,000 dollars is middle class? If I made that kind of cake I would feel like the richest man in town. They are both f'ing idiots, I think I will just opt out.

I am way more bothered by Mitt's definition of middle class, the dude/republican party is extremely out of touch. His quarter million dollar middle class might be the deal breaker for me.

my son told me a couple years back in Phoenix some people went around on xmas eve night and put boxes with wrapping paper and bows over a buttload of redlight cameras, LOL

are they going to stop someone from buying a second cup of soda? I agree that it is about money. Everything is about money. FWIW way back in the day 16 ounces was a large drink.

I thought we got the majority of our oil from Canada.

as for backing Israel, do we want to sit by and do nothing? Does anyonenot think that the next target would be the US? Now jumping ahead, would it be possible to hack the targeting software Iran will use to hit Israel and redirect a missile right back at Iran?

yep, don't let facts get in the way of mythology.

meh, it'll pass

I thought the WH already issued an apology and then a retraction of it. Typical.

I did not trash anything. You bring the bible and religion into discussion and when someone comments in disagreement on it you act like some terrible deed was committed. I did not bring it up, you did. I doubt you are done with it.

i think we are born with a moral compass. I don't know if we happened at random or if something had their finger mixing the primordial soup. But it certainly was not some invisible being. And as you point out If we are a christian based nation just how well is that working.

funny stuff, I saw it on Fox this morning.

Government policy should never be dictated by religion. We back up Israel for the same reason I would stop one child from bullying another. I would not want to be bullied, which is essentially what Muslim countries try to do to Israel. Whether or not middle eastern countries use religious books to set their foreign policy is immaterial. I don't need a book to tell me what is right and wrong, i doubt you do either. Am I to look to she sky and ask an imaginary being for guidance? Makes no sense to me. As f'd up as this world is, if governments use the bible or koran to set policy maybe they need to rethink how they do things. Because it sure isn't working.

Is asking why we needs friends there a serious question? Right and wrong is pretty straight forward. Which book of fiction is correct?

No, I do not think a book of fiction has anything to do with it. Do the Iranians consult the bible before they act? Do the Israeli's? It is right to back Israel because they are our allies. We need friends in the middle east and as far as I know Israel is the only country there receptive to the US. When Israel launches an attack on Iran our military should be flying side by side with them

I don't understand your comment 6.8

I have tried to watch this show, started it on Netflix and got through about 8 episodes. For me it is toooooo unbelievable. These bikers do their thing with total impunity. I just find it very much over the top and more far fetched than Walking Dead.
