It's tax time. The Supreme Court just ruled money talks. The Golden rule. Whoever has the gold rules. Taxpayers rule. Well, we rule until April 15th. Until then we got the money so we call the shots. Well, at least that is the way it is suppose to work. What is wrong with this picture? Congress is not paying attention. I said I want single payer health care and they said screw you. The banks said bail us out and Congress said No problem. I said, I want all the troops home and Congress said I can't hear you. AIG said bail us not once but twice and Congress said How much do you need? Here, take as much as you need, its not our money its the taxpayers money and they can't do a darn thing about it.
Congress doesn't care what the taxpayers want because we never gave them an ultimatum like the banks and wall street did? So whose fault is that? It's our fault. We never told Congress like the Banks and Wall street to give us what we want or we will not give them what you want. Tax money.
This is the only opportunity we have to tell Congress what we want and when we want it. We hold all the cards. Congress can't do a damn thing without our tax money. As soon as we turn the money over to them they are going to turn around and give it to their friends on Wall street and the bankster unless we tell them what we want right now and refuse to give it to them until everything is signed on the dotted line. This is our golden opportunity because we hold all the gold. Here's the demands: single payer health care and bring the troops home now.
We have never given Congress any reason to listen to us. We have never threatened to cut off their funding or attach any strings to the taxes we are paying them. So why should they do what we want? It's not that they can't do it. Hell, how fast did they agree to bail out Wall street? They just plain don't give a damn about what we want because we just keep giving them money to turn around and beat the living daylights out of us. Taxpayers are just one big fat joke to Congress. They figure we have no choice and are too afraid not to give them the tax money. Well, they are wrong about the choice. Procession is 90% of the law. Until we pay the money it is still ours. We have every right to negotiate where our money goes before we give it to them. Too afraid? Perhaps. And if that is the case then we are looking at more of the same for the next year.
If we don't have the balls to kick ass even when we are holding all the cards then how do we expect Congress to do any different? We have to show Congress we mean business and that does not mean rolling over and playing dead.
So are they going to put us all in jail? Of course not because they need us to be working and making money. Putting us all in jail costs a lot of money they don't have and means there goes the whole entire tax base.
Congress will listen to what we have to say. Money talks. And who has all the money? Taxpayers or in this case would be taxpayers. Now is the time to give Congress a piece of our mind on no uncertain terms. Give us single payer health care, bring all the troops from Germany, Korea, Japan, Afghanistan, Iraq and then we will pay you for a job well done. Until then, we will hold onto our money and our power thank you very much.
Perhaps referring to Corporations as Vampires is inappropriate, I think it would be more appropriate to call them Privateers... (Government backed pirates).
Please read the Hebrew translation of the new Testament correctly it was never meant to be taken physically only spiritually.. NO ONE said the word homosexual in the actual text. It is translated as do not love the things of men, which are things like hate, jealousy, bigotry, lies, etc. But love the things of God, like love, forgiveness, charity, truth etc. This is the plain and simple translation it has nothing to do with physical things like gay rights.
When I went to grade school in the early 1950's my 1st through 4th grade teacher said that freedom meant that you could do as you wished as long as you did not hurt someone. The corporations and rich people go by the first part of this statement but don't understand the last part.
I thought that the Theory of One God goes back to the Egyptians. At least recent discoveries seem to be pointing to that, and as a result the Jewish people took that belief with them when the escaped.
That or it started with the Cylons (which I personally believe ;-) )
We create God in our own image.
The Jewish, Christian, Islamic God was created out of a Middle Eastern Desert tribal Society. Because their environment was harsh and very unforgiving, so was their God. They also lived as a tribal society, and so theirs was the only true God, thus your God was false (or in the early days, a lessor God)
Unusual concept there Charell, actually allowing people to live their life the way they want to. Stop making sense damn it! Our forefathers really wanted this country to be a bible thumping Christian Nation.... but they were obviously RETARDED!!! ;-)
It seems to me that as long as people believe the Bible to be "The Word of God", then these people have to acknowledge their God has a problem with gays & women.
@Charell No kidding. What is the GOPs next next. A mobile dispatch unit that sends an umpire to determine whether the sexual posiiton or partner they happen to catch you in will bear severe consequences. They seem to be leaders in creative sex in bathrooms and all.

"Or at least have the lawyers to appeal that liability"
Bert, I think their interpretation of it is "You can do as you wish as long as you can't be held liable for your actions."

Greedy Old Politicians!
Gross Old Pricks?

Nels, I thought it was Greed Over People!
DDay, are you sure that's what GOP stands for, I thought it was Getting Obscene Payola.

GOP equals " Wide Stances...Narrow Minds!" visit the Larry Craig Memorial Bathroom when passing through the MPLS/ST.PAUL airport. very popular!
rewinn, 2 weeks ago I believe :-(
True Dday,she is the typical lying fear monger that the republicans are
Unusual concept there Charell, actually allowing people to live their life the way they want to. Stop making sense damn it! Our forefathers really wanted this country to be a bible thumping Christian Nation.... but they were obviously RETARDED!!! ;-)
Hey Nels - good point. How soon before the Roberts court rules:
“All persons are equal… but some are more equal than others”
as a god fearing christian, I cannot accept the notion of gay pigeons.
everyone in their right mind knows pigeons are asexual robots.
I'm not in the mood to be kind Tom. She is frigging weird. More importantly dishonest. No more dumbing down of lying!
It seems to me that as long as people believe the Bible to be "The Word of God", then these people have to acknowledge their God has a problem with gays & women.
Ted Haggard does not have to be forgiven for being gay, but for cheating on his wife.
@Charell No kidding. What is the GOPs next next. A mobile dispatch unit that sends an umpire to determine whether the sexual posiiton or partner they happen to catch you in will bear severe consequences. They seem to be leaders in creative sex in bathrooms and all.
Even if being gay were a choice, so what! This is supposed to be a free country. Live and let live People!
