before you start on a racist rant, perhaps some fact checking is in order - there was some $ allocated to restore some very very old buildings, at if I recall, 2 were mosques - would you object to restoring a 1500 year old abbey in England? what is unbelievable about trying to help save historic buildings? have you lost your senses? No racist rant.....I just can't believe the government is wasting money on such an epic scale, can't get a debt ceiling agreement, and is about to crash the market when it opens tomorrow. But fortunately, there IS money for this type of worthless ****. Enjoy the ass kicking you're going to get in the market Monday, that is, if you have any of your savings invested in stocks and such. The Asian markets are down between 1 and 3 percent as I write this. Dave |

Dave =============== This shows again how far the thought processes and perceptions of reality have diverged between the majority of Americans and the policy makers in DC. The Democrats continue to communicate with the spirit of FDR while the Republicans continue to channel Ronald Reagan. The current economic conditions and circumstances are completely different from those existing during the administrations of FDR and RR, e.g. the levels of national debt, the elimination of most financial control and regulation (such as Glass-Stegall), the rise of the supra/trans national corporations, globalization, and the export of most consumer manufacturing among many others. This being the case, it is only to be expected that the old economic elixirs, panaceas, potions and nostrums no longer work. |

George, you usually are much more verbose, but this was so succinct - a keeper for sure! There are some factual problems with it, however. As for "channeling Ronald Reagan," under Reagan our foreign aid rose from $10 billion to $22 billion, and Reagan consistently asked for more foreign aid than Congress granted him. Foreign aid never dropped below 1.10% of the federal budget under Reagan -- even when we were in recession and unemployment topped 10%. Now, it's around 0.86% of our budget. So it isn't different policies or guiding lights. It's basically the same policy we've had for over a quarter-century. The Department of State is hardly profligate, and our foreign aid percentage is consistently at the low end of the developed countries. What we're channeling now is isolationism. I'm not judging whether that's good or bad here, but it's clearly a different posture than we've had since WWII. If we're going to do that, we have a lot of changes to make in international relations. -- Ed Huntress -- Richard Lamb http://www.home.earthlink.net/~cavelamb http://www.home.earthlink.net/~sv_temptress |
