Republicans discovered that busting the budget and giving their constituents what they want gets them reelected. Until the economy takes a tank because of the amount of interest we have to pay off the debt kicks in then it works well for them. On a state level though, you have to deal with balanced budgets and increasing services means tax increases.

However, I will clarify my statement that the Mainland US was never threatened, nor was there plans by any Axis powers to invade us. Wrong again, the Japanese attacked the Aleutians and Midway with the threat that the west coast of America could be bombed from that location.

I dont see Pearl harbor in that? Sorry, is it written in invisible ink? How did America get in WWII, Pearl Harbor, but you said that America was not threatened which would mean that the attack on Pearl Harbor in your opinion was not a threat.<TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394

Its in Drudge so it must be true. However, from what you post here, it doesn't say that it reflected in the way they reported. Neither does the article linked, so perhaps the only one manipulating the facts is...you.

Please show me where I said Pearl Harbor never happened. It slipped my mind that I would ever say that. Also, show me where I said Japan never threatened us. I missed that statement as well. <TD class="mb

Again, you dont know this. That is your opinion. And you are welcome to it. But since you dont know, you must love being wrong. I dont say I know. So I cant be said to be wrong. Not my assumption, there were no troops available to serve as a police force in the conquered territories. Looting was r

Rightwinger, not sure if it takes away from your arguments, but Nazi Germany declared war on the US after the US declared war on Japan. That was in accord with the Axis pact. Europe involved us in their war, which we eventually would have entered in any case to assist the British who declared war on Japan as we did.

Your sarcasm is duly noted, and forgotten as it is irrelevant to the topic at hand. I guess you, being Karnac, have all the answers, but for the rest of man kind, I guess we will have to muddle through just being human.

Its clear to me that an organization founded under a great principle has lost its course. They still have some worthy goals, seeking to ammend the Patriot Act to protect us without doing away with our basic rights of due process for example. They have begun a pattern of taking rights away from the majority by stating the rights of the minority are somehow more important.

I tried to suggest before that in order to populate the multiplayer lounge that people post the times they will be there. If someone shows up at 7 and there's noone there, they have nothing and the person that comes in 10 minutes after the first leaves is in the same boat. Post your ability level, party you prefer to play, and if you want to institute any special rules. Oh, and a heads up, you

I'm sure some of them might be ridiculed by bullies because of their religious beliefs, but what about people who are ridiculed for their political beliefs, tastes, lack of wealth, race, appearance, sexuality, weight, virginity, impediments, accents, clothing, friends, etc. Should those things be removed from schools to protect c

On the domestic front the Bush administration calls outsourcing of jobs globalization of the economy and states that it is positive for American trade. Manufacturing jobs are replaced with lower paying jobs. Tell me again why Bush is a great President?

So you're saying that if stops fugging everything up he could become a great President. He's been fugging up on a consistent basis the last four years. Why should he stop now.

Putting it that way, os is O2 and Ozone. They both are naturally occuring gases and botrh protect the earth and make up part of the greenhouse (without Oxygen, we would be a lot colder!). So in that respect you are right. Does that mean we should work to curtail O2 as well? If so, then cutting down trees is a good start.</T

I've seen a great cutback in the number of posts on the political machine game forum and not much talk about the game anymore. That is to be expected somewhat with the election over. Is everyone bored of the game? Is there a challenge on multiplayer? To make the game a bit different, I offered the 19th century campaign rules but had no takers. It seems that every campaign is run pretty much the same as the same issues take over. We really need an
