Okay, by your reckoning the Democrats controlled congress during the year Bush had his $1.4 trillion deficit. See how easy it is to play this game? The reality is that neither political party is the slightest bit fiscally responsible. If the Republicans really believed in balanced budgets...

As I recall Democrats had control of congress for about half of that period of time. Our federal government acts with wild irresponsibility at all times. Republicans like to complain about deficits when a Democrat is President, Democrats like to complain about deficits when a Republican is...

You'll be on the list in good time. Maybe you are already.

All the patriots today are winding up on the terrorist watch lists. This was predictable.

Political parties change over time, and can't just live off their past glories (or their past foibles). The Democrats used to be the party of segregation, now they're the party of affirmative action. There was a time when many Republicans were against war and against playing world cop. Robert...

I quite agree. That's why I like Ron Paul. He's not right on everything, but he is the candidate for people who know that their government sucks.

If you read the article you can see that Buffet concedes that -- but the S&P 500 is up even more. So far the best thing I ever did financially was buy some gold in the $320 - $400 range and just sit on it. Yes, gold is an unproductive asset. It's not farmland and it's not a dividend paying...

The issue is not whether people accept contraception and believe it should be legal and available. it's whether insurance companies should be forced to pay for it. The more things you require insurance companies to do the more the insurance will cost. The polls simply show that two thirds of...

Simply because I don't like war and believe we should uphold the Bill of Rights doesn't make me a Democrat. It is sad that the criteria for being a Republican these days comes down to just one thing -- you must want wars, early and often.

Many of our state government are near bankruptcy. But they can still afford to inspect school lunch boxes.

Good God. Every time I get nauseous looking at what the conventional Republicans are doing along comes Maxine Waters to remind me of why I can never, ever, vote for Democrats. This is the woman who wants to socialize the oil companies. She is also on Judicial Watch's list of the ten most...

Yeah, it's weird. I can understand why people oppose abortion. But contraception? Santorum owns that issue. I'm quite sure the other candidates want no part of it.

Whenever anyone asks what is special about Iran, just why it is so disastrous for them to have a nuclear weapon that we must wage war against them if they try to make one, when we didn't do that with China, India, or Pakistan, invariably the answer is that they pose a dire threat to Israel. So...

So Jake Jones, aka americanhero, who has said that he contributes regularly to AIPAC, is not a hard core Zionist? And given Trader666's keenness to see America fight a war for Israel I'd say he's a Zionist too. Although not as hard core as Jake Jones. And no, there isn't going to be another...

Well, I shouldn't post when I'm tired. I meant, of course, that we keep threatening to attack Iran. We've been doing this for years. Remember McCain's promise to "Bomb, bomb Iran?". That was four years ago. We haven't bombed Iran yet and somehow the world hasn't come to an end. And of...

To your first question, I reply, "Yes, and you just proved it." We keep threatening to attack Israel, prodded on by the Israel firsters here in the United States. Iran knows who is doing the prodding so they get their backs up and their leaders say nasty things about Israel and Zionism. Now...

Strictly speaking, neither Bush nor Obama was fully responsible for the huge increase in the deficit, as it is congress that actually passes the spending bills. The President can set the tone, and neither Bush nor Obama has shown the slightest hint of fiscal responsibility. For every new...

Anybody who tells the truth about AIPAC's influence over our politicians and our foreign policy is always going to be called an anti-Semite. Indeed, that is the chief defense of the Zionist lobby. Tell me, what other foreign country has a lobby that can get hundreds of elected officials to...

Only a few dozen.

My best guess is that Soros is wrong that gold won't reach $2000 an ounce. Especially if Soros is right that an attack on Iran is inevitable. Such an attack will cause a surge in the prices of both gold and oil.
