this seems like a bad choice...
Game,
Give it some time. I'm sure the great minds frequenting this blog will come up with something. :-)
I'd post something myself, but I'm thinking that would be masochistic.
But I'll think about it.
Don't rip the people coming to my blog Jim...
That is where I draw the line...
You're NOT serious, are you?
These people rip me up one side and down the other with some of the most inane ad hominem comments I've ever read, and that's OK, but if I make a rather ambiguous comment about them I'm stepping over the line?
BTW, I was serious about giving the idea more time. It seems to work on many blogs.
Thank God for this verdict. My heart was so heavy worrying that justice would not be done, just because of 'special minority rights'. I followed this case from start to finish....all the facts said Vang was guilty as sin. The lies this Vang POS tried to get away with by pulling out the race card! Hideous! Check out the link...I have all the court docs, including those where Vang changed his stories multiple times about who shot first, who he shot, etc., ad nauseum, plus the major news stories covering this. This decision marked a great day for American justice. May these victims rest in peace, at last.

VANG FOUND GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS
Chai Vang has been found guilty of killing six hunters in the woods of northwest Wisconsin last November, as well as the attempted murder of two others. A jury reached the verdict late Friday afternoon.

I haven't read the Fair Tax Book yet. I do know that Neal makes some excellent points about lots of things, so his book is on my list of 'to read'.
From boortz.com:
QUALITY, NOT QUANTITY
let's just say that the Talkmaster slept in a bit. There is something I wanted you to read though. Daniel Webster wrote this on June 1, 1834. It is oh so true today:
"I apprehend no danger to our country from a foreign foe . . . Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter. From the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and negligence, I must confess that I do apprehend some danger. I fear that they may place too implicit a confidence in their public servants, and fail properly to scrutinize their conduct; that in this way they may be made the dupes of designing men, and become the instruments of their own undoing. Make them intelligent, and they will be vigilant; give them the means of detecting the wrong, and they will apply the remedy."
Well ... here we are. Not only have Americans placed "too implicit a confidence in their public servants" and have "fail(ed) properly to scrutinize their conduct", it's worse than that. Most of us don't even know who these public servants are! Rare is the citizen who can name both U.S. Senators from their state, and you would have to spend a long time searching for someone who could name both Senators, their Congressman and the Vice-President. More people can name the football coach of their state university than can name the person who represents them in congress. I could go on a while here, but you get the picture. Pathetic isn't good enough to describe the lack of attention we have paid to those who govern us.
You do know, don't you, that your state university football coach can't use force to take property away from you to give to someone else. You also know, I hope, that neither Brad Pitt nor Jennifer Anniston can raise your taxes or guarantee your social security benefits. (Hint, they're not guaranteed now.) Every time I see "Entertainment Tonight" come on the tube or see a copy of People Magazine on a news rack I cringe. This is where most Americans are getting what they consider to be "news."
Over the weekend I joined Clark Howard, Sean Hannity, Neil Cavuto and James Carville on stage in both Atlanta and Orlando to discuss a wide range of issues before some pretty good crowds. One of the topics up for grabs was whether or not the Republicans can retain control of the House and Senate. Hannity thinks there's no way they can lose.
Carville certainly hopes they do. I believe that not only can they lose, they richly deserve to. Aside from their support for the war on terror and tax cuts, these Republicans have done nothing to earn or deserve reelection. They have accomplished in terms of reckless spending what it took the Democrats decades to accomplish when they were running the show.
I'm fed up. Fed up with the ignorance of the American voter and the free-spending ways of our congress. The only bad thing about kicking these Republican free-spenders out of the congress would be that they would be replaced by Democrats. Democrats, believe it or not, would be worse. For beginners, you could kiss off any tax reform ideas like the FairTax. The death tax would be cast in gold. And, my friends, you could get ready to learn the meaning of "imputed income." Wait until that little Democratic "soak-the-rich" scheme gets into the news cycle. Sadly, though, most of you will still be wondering how it is that Tori Spelling ever found her way to the front of a camera lens.
