Lucky... 0 #126 December 22, 2006 QuoteQuoteQuoteQuoteQuoteSocial Security is is for the GOVERNMENTS Social Security, read the 1933 act in it's entirety. Pretty fucking sad that FDR filed bankruptcy on the US while pulling the wool over everyones eyes. The US has been bankrupt and in debt since the 1840's. The reason we are still afloat is that we have such good cash flow, but if that were to slow we would be dead, as our credit cards are maxxed. Tell me, what would you do with the 67 YO person with no family? I would like to see the proof of that! Proof of what? Our debt? The date? WHat? Hey you went to college, oh wait that's right, there is no guarantee that you could comprehend that I was referring to that text which was highlighted in BOLDtype. Geez talk about intentionally evading something. QuoteHey you went to college, oh wait that's right, there is no guarantee that you could comprehend.... Nice personal attack - I don't see the mods warning anyone who PA's me, so keep it going. QuoteGeez talk about intentionally evading something. I understand you have no point to make, but if you have a question, you can just ask it w/o cryptic mindreading to decipher them. As we've seen it, the libs ask and explain in detail, the conservs misdirect and play on ambiguity and semantics. Ask your question, I will be glad to answer it.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites FlyingJ 0 #133 December 23, 2006 I've always been incredibly impressed with Theodore Roosevelt. I don't necessarily love everything he did as POTUS, but am totally in awe of the man in general. I have never read about anyone with the kind of energy and "get up 'n go" that he had. The most impressive thing to me in regard to his presidency was his conservation efforts. He put aside more than 230 million acres for conservation. I remember reading a quote somewhere that said the amount of land he set aside was about the same as the land contained in all of the east coast states, from Florida all the way up to Maine.Killing threads since 2004.

I bet it wasn't that way after FDR died. By criminal I assume you're talking about our current president. If so, you're wrong. I voted for him. I think most people who did, will readily admit it. According to the L.A. Times/Bloomberg poll (12/8-11/06), 42% approve of his overall performance. Kinda gives the impression a fair number of people still like him. I've read many more recent polls suggesting he's in teh high 20's to low 30's. Again, there aren't a lot of people bragging about voting for him, they may not deny, but they don;t wear it like a badge as compared to teh number of people who voted for him. LOL You say you can't find a person who will admit they voted for Bush Then you say he's not as popular as in the past. Not quit the same, dont you think? I love to see those "many more recent polls suggesting he's in the high 20s". According to this sitehttp://www.pollingreport.com/BushJob.htm, Bush has never had job approval numbers in the 20s.
