PN, I used to agree, but I think that the organization conspiring America into slavery through dollar devaluation is comprised of a lot of the world's brightest and most crooked economists: They are bound to have thought of something more clever.

I don't know what, but they may be planning to trade the national debt for control over US companies, perhaps privatize the whole govt, and then buy everything. It's something to gnaw over, but it's not going down as blatantly as Zimbabwe. Mugabe is an astute and well educated psychopath, but he's basically a govt. of one, surrounded by yesmen. I think the gnomes of zurich and the federal reserve can put their heads together with rockefellers, rothschilds, commies and dubai, and come up with something better. Not, perhaps, better for us, but something better for them, and less obvious.

As a charter member of the " Haters " Club, I'd like to point out that this bill was intended solely to be a stimulus package, to re-ignite the
economy. This is by no means the entire Federal Budget. Items in this bill should be strictly limited to vital areas, and not some gorram laundry list of things " to do ". Taking $$ out of this bill wouldn't mean that there'd be ZERO $$ for say.... food stamps or painting up old class rooms. Those issues should be dealt with in a seperate manner, and a different bill. Things need to be discussed, and not rammed down the throats of the American people, in one massive chunck.

God that's funny

That speaks to me, that is my world view = we're all pretty ridiculous.

It really is one of those "mysteries" of the universe isn't it, that within basically 1 month of coming and going, 2 presidents from opposing parties have each run up 2, nearly 1 trillion dollar invoices. And both were in a hurry.

As to the ramming... the strategy for both sides has been for some time that it's easier to pass one big lump than to have to push every one of these out seperately.

I don't know about 10 billion...but one billion to fund the next 9 sequels to Serenity. That seems reasonable to me.

I'm adding it to my platform for when I run for office next year. Jobs, tax cuts, war on terror, and Firefly.

I could use some campaign contributions...perhaps we could start FireflyPAC...

We have a clever new dynamic, it's called "us and them" it's never been tried before. They are a subhumanoid monster, and we are the chosen children of god. Our leaders are beneficent, and want the best for us, this is why they created the debt. We must worship the debt. Allow me to quote from scripture:

You must never let the right wing know what the left wing is doing
The lord giveth, the lord collecteth interest, and the lord repo-eth.
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of Debt, I shall see no evil.
Our Dog is a mighty Dog.
You have heard it said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, but I say unto you: Eyetooth! Bring on them fangs. We want vamps and lichens, and Kate Beckinsdale nude.

I don't know about the vamps and lycans, but definitely Kate nude would be... stimulating.

Lichens, please, it's a symbiotic colony of algae and fungi, discovered by beatrix potter, who also discovered peter rabbit ;)
One thing to do whenever writing a fantasy, is make sure that your words aren't cognates for existing words.

Non vampire Kate

The movie you want to see is apparently called "Haunted" Also, there's a brief scene in underworld:evolution, which I haven't seen.

She kind of reminds me of Cordelia here. But click view image, and change the number at the end to view images 1 through 6.

Venomous feminists have angered me, so I'm liable to post more of these. Whenever Jane Fonda and Ted Turner would have a fight, TCM would run Barbarella ;)

That was before her conversion to feminism, and also, death to america:

Yep, that's her hanging out with the VC. The guy to her left is shooting Americans. Strangely, this doesn't end your career, it moves you into fitness.

Personally, I don't get the fitness crazes around people who are fit. My mom actually suggested that Oprah's weight fluctuation was "this is oprah, this is oprah on drugs, any questions?"

I'm usually the optimist around here, but the fact that our Government is actually trying something as desperate as this 889 billion boondoggle has got me worried. This seems like a last ditch effort to stave off something pretty bad that they seem to see in the cards. More likely its just a move to turn the US into a Obama run nanny state, because the libs know what's best for us. I've been stocked up for years anyway, just because of the survivalist in me.

When I spoke with Ron Paul, he told me that this country could NOT continue on its path. That we were headed toward a fall the likes of which we have NEVER seen.

I just looked and the shelf life of snickers bars is only 9 months. I'd get to fat waiting for the Barackalypse. I buy primarily freeze dried food, 30 year shelf life and very reasonably priced in the large cans. http://www.mountainhouse.com/index.cfm

Wulf, you spoke with Ron Paul?

I watched all his videos, so I heard his doomsday scenario. I think that the Fed and the Gnomes are going to pull a fast one just when it looks like collapse: Either

1) The Amero
or
2) They will exchange the debt for buying up America.

Imagine the possible endgame scenarios: The only land belongs to Chase Realty, and you have to deal with them, and everyone pays their rent and their mortgage to them. They would have a larger budget than the govt.

Or the Fed and its foreign friends simply buy up every company in America.

Or worse... wait, I could have fun with this as a sci fi story...
