“Here’s a challenge to Obama and Romney: Tell us what YOU are going to do to help this country and not what the other guy isn’t going to do!”

“Why is it that 12 or more people can be killed from black-on-black crime in Chicago, but the cable news media could care less. But, if a white guy in a SWAT suit kills 12 people in a movie theater (I guess in a movie theater is an important place to die), this is big Fox News alert-type news all day. Fox News made fools out of themselves Friday. They kept repeating the same crap every 15 minutes all day. The only good thing about the Aurora killings was, I didn’t have to listen about how Sean Hannity cares about George Zimmerman’s innocence, and I didn’t have to listen to Obama lie to a group of brain-dead people cheering him on during another canned speech.”

“Well as you might expect, the loser Left tries to cash in on the grief of the tragedy in Aurora, CO. Why do they think that taking the guns away from law abiding citizens will create Utopian safety? Remember: An armed man is a citizen; an unarmed man is a subject!”

“I am going to double my visits to Chick-Fil-A. The recent response is more proof liberals don’t believe in the 1st Amendment (unless it is favorable to them).”

“Rep. Michele Bachmann has the respect of Christine O’Donnell now that she has dabbled in witch hunts.”

“To the Friday Vent that claims our taxes have gone up for three years: In fact, income and payroll taxes were lowered in Obama’s first month and are at the lowest rates since 1950. Look at your paychecks and 1040 forms. Additional tax breaks for small business have been blocked by Republicans. The upcoming big tax increase is the expiration of the Bush tax cuts. Obama and the Democrats are trying to get these extended for all of us except millionaires while Republicans are fighting only for the super-wealthy. So, which voters are you calling idiots now?”

    Here's a link to the Iceland story:
    http://www.fallofthefed.com/blog/2012/07/20/iceland-jails-bankers-erases-citizens-debt-recovers-strongly-no-more-banks/

    I wonder why none of the media in this country will run this story...

    Willie - Or, we could push the Senate to pass the bill to audit the Fed, which was just passed by the House yesterday.

    Once we expose the Fed's corruption and criminal enterprise, we can shut them down, cancel their so-called "debt", do the same to any banks that protest, and start issuing United States currency (as opposed to Federal Reserve Notes).

    Don't think it can be done? Iceland just did it. ;)

    6th venter: NONE of the Bush tax cuts should be extended.

    The U.S. is burdened with trillions of dollars in debt.

    1/3 of every dollar the government spends is borrowed!

    The same principles that apply to your personal budget apply to the national budget.

    If your car breaks down and you have to borrow money to fix it or get another one, do you tell you boss ' cut my pay so I can pay my debt off '?

    We cannot solve the debt problem by reducing our income.

    Taxes are not pleasant ... but it's a matter of personal responsibility just like paying the bills for our families.

    We have benefited as a society ( of which each taxpayer is a part ) from the things the country borrowed money for.

    But, since our society owes these debts we all owe a portion of it.

    Reducing the taxes we pay is a form of welching on our debts.

    Conservatives hold people who file bankruptcy in contempt.

    But our nation is on the verge of filing bankruptcy and conservatives don't want to pay their share.

    When we personally experience unusual bills, most people try to get a second job in order to pay off the bills. They INCREASE their income.

    It is FINANCIAL FOLLY to cut taxes when we owe so much debt.

    Man up people and pay up.
