This dog here has a good idea for the rebate checks from the stimulus
package that just passed. Each person or dog could choose to let the
goverment keep their $600 rebate check and put it in a pool with 100
other $600 rebate checks. That would be a $60.000 pool. The goverment
would keep $10,000 to go toward paying off the national debt and then
draw one social security number from the pool. The lucky person or dog
that had their number drawn would win $50,000 to pay for a great Vegas
vacation. Of course we could have our own AVLV pool and all put our
rebate checks in it.

Your owner can easily have a trip to Vegas on his $600. Even less if
he takes advantage of all the comps people here have offered him.

Bill Clinton balanced the national debt, but the republicans seem to have
no interest in doing it for some reason? I seem to remember being better off
in those years.

Actually that is half correct, BR.

Bill Clinton "balanced" the budget after the republican revolution in 1994
by electing a republican congress and Newt Gingrich and Trent Lott leading
the way. Hillary finally faded away after her health plan was defeated and
Bill Clinton went from Liberal to "Centralist" for the remainder of his
presidency.

You may also recall that the republicans put Clinton's feet to the fire with
welfare reform. 1994-1996 were good years due to Congress-not Clinton.

Clinton also had the smarts to stay out of the way with Alan Greenspan
(wasn't he a Bush appointee?) while president.

How quickly we forget.

That's a fact. Whether you like dems or reps, Clinton or Reagan:

Oh, he balanced the BUDGET. I thought you said he balanced teh national
debt. Big difference.

Here's why Hillary is not who we want in the WH next. (from Boortz)
Hillary knows the research. She fully understands that her supporters are
among the most ignorant and undereducated in our country. So ... when she's
in trouble, why not pander to her core support? The American Dumb Mass
Coalition!

Here's how she plans to rein in each and every one of these industries? Are
you ready to enter the mind of a socialist? Just for grins, I'll channel
Hillary at the end of every item so you can see what she is really thinking.

-"We'll take on the oil companies and harness their record profits to
create millions of clean energy jobs - high-wage jobs you can raise a family
on. I'll end their special tax breaks and give them a choice: invest some of
your profits in alternative energy, or we'll do it for you. People have been
paying through the roof at the pump, and it's time the companies paid their
fair share."

Yeah ... the morons will buy that one. They wouldn't know a profit from a
profit margin if their lives depended on it. They're upset with the price of
gas, so the oil companies are easy to demonize. Besides ... everyone knows
it's the job of the government to tell businesses what to do with their
profits. I'm sure the teachers, policemen and firemen's retirement funds
won't miss the money.

-"We'll take on the credit card companies so that you and your families
aren't drowning in debt. Here in Ohio, payday lenders are actually taking
Social Security checks from our elderly. That's outrageous. I've proposed
real consumer protections against abusive interest rates - capping them at
no more than 30 percent and working to get them far lower. And I'll ban
those hidden fees and sudden rate hikes, because credit card companies
shouldn't be able to bait and switch you and your family."

Well blame this on the credit card companies. These idiots will buy that one
too. It was the evil credit card companies that forced these people to go
out there and spend and spend and charge and charge for lifestyle. After
all, the people who pay off their cards every month aren't likely to vote
for me anyway. As for those payday lenders ... they simply cannot be allowed
to create a product to meet a demand. What do they think this is, a country
based on economic liberty? I'll demonize the pants off those jerks. Votes
votes votes!

-"We'll take on the insurance companies and tell them they can no longer
discriminate against the sickest people who need care the most. They spend
more than $50 billion a year trying to figure out how not to cover people.
Well, I'm going to save them a fortune and a whole lot of time, because
here's the new policy: No more discrimination period. So even if you have a
pre-existing condition, you can get the health insurance you need - no
questions asked."

People hate insurance companies too. We'll make insurance companies pay off
on the most absurd claims .. and we're going to allow people to smoke and
eat their way into ill health and them we'll make an insurance company
insure them. Yeah, I know. This will drive the cost of insurance through the
roof ... but that's not a bad thing. It will just cause people to become
louder in their demands for government health care.

-"And I'll go after drug companies and insurance companies that are
overcharging consumers and the government - it's time to end their
profiteering at our expense.

Yes, by God, no more profiteering! In Hillary's America evil corporations
will only be allowed to make profits on things that people don't actually
need. I'm a socialist! What did you expect! Somehow I need to figure out how
to hide the fact that cosmetics companies make higher profits than drug
companies ... thanks in no small part to me. We also have to stop these
Wal-Marts and Krogers from setting up pharmacies and selling generic drugs
at four bucks a pop. Not good for my plans for big government.

-"We'll take on Wall Street and tell them: you're going to finally pay
your fair share in taxes. Because it's outrageous that a teacher making
$50,000 pays a higher tax rate than some Wall Street investment managers
making $50 million. And I'll create a bi-partisan Corporate Waste Commission
to review all those corporate subsidies - and propose a comprehensive way to
end them. We can save billions of dollars a year and put it to work for you.

That's the Warren Buffet line .. and it works. Those talk show hosts are
going to remind people that the reason investors pay a higher tax rate than
teachers is because teachers are paying income taxes and investors are
paying capital gains taxes. Two different taxes, two different rates. I'll
be sure to not tell these idiot voters that investors pay the same rates as
everyone else on their earned income. No sense confusing my voters with the
facts.

-"We'll take on the student loan companies and tell them no more ripping
off our sons and daughters. I'm proposing a Student Borrower Bill of
Rights - no more deceptive advertising and outrageous fees. And we'll end
the inefficient subsidies for private student loan companies. Because we
should be making it easier for our kids to go to college - not harder."

Actually ... I'm not sure just how many more college educated people we need
in this country. After all, the more educated someone becomes the less
likely they are to believe my bullshit. And how dare these loan companies
charge market rates for student loans anyway?

Hillary, my friends, is in panic mode. Lord knows what other wonderful
promises she's going to come up with in the next days ... and what new
attacks she's going to launch on the free markets.

Too much copy and paste for me to read.... We like her over here. So if
she gets the nod, she gets 2 votes from us. Whoever gets the most votes
wins.... unless of course you're GW Bush! LOL

If it comes down to Super delegates, Hillary could get in, Part of being a
democrat, Black people won't understand and there will be riots however its
been that way and you all joined the party so you should not bitch.

The real bitching should come if (when) they decide to include the
delegates elected in the two primaries (FL is one and I don't remember
the other) that were disallowed because they came about before Super
Tuesday. All sides thought that was a good idea until someone (Hillary)
actually won them.
