Since they benefit far more from this system than I, you bet. It's not like any of them are getting put out on the street because of their tax burden, so forgive me if don't cry too many tears for the "struggles" of the wealthy.

And exactly how are they benefiting more?

They should, and they should be happy to do so for the privilege of living in a society that made it possible for them to accumulate such wealth.

So how much should they pay JS? Should they pay more than you?

One thing that drives me nuts about the dems...is they will give NO credit to Bush for the economy. They want to talk about how great the economy was under Clinton when it all reality it was white hot with over-valued tech stocks that blew up. Our unemployment is at a RECORD low...but yet the dems will say its all McD's jobs. Give me a break. You can argue Iraq and maybe a few other things you dont agree with but give credit where credit is due.

All that rich folks' stuff takes a back seat when American boys and girls are dying daily for a personal war with no end in sight. Did I hear NPR right? 18 today? I thought the mission was accomplished 2-3 years ago?

 

But keep telling me how great things are for people who make $300K a year. The real crime is how the GOP has snowed most of the country into thinking they're rich, and subsequently voting against their pocketbooks. At least the American public is finally waking up, despite taking a sledgehammer to the head for six years.

Detroit averages about 35 murders a month....as does St. Louis and N. Orleans...Should we pull out of there too?

For the record...my brother...WHO VOLUNTEERED!!!...is serving his 3rd TOD and he isnt complaining about the war...as a matter of fact he stands firmly behind his President. He had the opportunity to get out after both of his first two tours...knew he would have to go back for a third and did.

 

The tax cuts were made for the rich. They benefit the most from it, and to argue otherwise would be silly. The fact that middle-class folks benefit is just a fortunate unintended consequence. And I have yet to see any benefit from it personally. If anything, I get less of a tax refund than I got 10 years ago.

Who do you think are paying most of the taxes?

I hope that Gore is not the nominee, but if he is, I think he will win. He'll just have to remind everyone how much better off they would have been if he had won in 2000.

Yeah...because things are SOOOOOOOOOOO bad...i mean the market is crashing, unemployment is at a record high....i dont think things can get much worse:rolleyes:

What do you mean...did Walker get hurt again?

Congrats Raceland Rams! Your team came out and smacked LCA in the mouth from the opening kick-off.

 

JT Forrest played an outstanding game as did their entire defense!

 

LCA did give Raceland a bunch of help with SEVEN turnovers!!!!!

Go do the research on that stat - how many teams make 7 turnovers and still win the game? Or even lose by less than 8 points?

 

I AM pulling for the RAMS the rest of the way! Because your fans and kids and program have so much class and you respect people which in turn deserves respect.

 

Go RAMS - we need you to avenge our honor from last years loss to NCC when you play them next week!:ylsuper:

Actually, I think it was 8...5 ints, 2 fumbles, and a blocked punt for a TD.

I'll buy you a coke! :thumb:

HEY NOW!

Eagle....I will see you there.

I would say that Russell or L western as the best chance

Mercer has a better chance than Breathitt:cry:

They ant played no one like L westerm

:confused: Washington Co...:sssh:

I think that mercer is going to get upset they are overrated:ylsuper:

And why do you think that?

:confused:

The part of the article that I turned to black doesn't preclude WJ? He isn't eligible for the Presidency is he?

He is qualified under the 12th.

Dunbar BETTER win this one...Their is NEVER a reason for a school the calibar of PLD to go OFER!!!! NEVER!

Hensley is a great man and a great coach. This is his first losing season as a head coach, and he will get things fixed this off season. They have had some injuries, bad breaks, and a tough schedule. Be patient with him. It is always so easy for fans to criticize coaching. They are just having a down year.

They are 0-9....OFER!!!!! A down year is 5-5, 4-6, 3-7, or even 2-8! Not 0-9.

It's been said...Great coaches find a way to win with lessor talent!

WHY would Bill Clinton run as VP, other than a way to get back to the presidency? And WHY would Hillary allow him on the ticket, knowing that?

Because Hillary knows that the ONLY way she would get elected.

another:

ACTUALLY…

In plain english, the 22nd doesn’t disqualify him from being president again, it just says he can’t be ELECTED president again, meaning that not only does the 12th not apply, but in theory, a person could be president over and over again, as long as he keeps getting himself elected VP and then has the president die.

Here is some of the language from the article:

The answer is: He can. The 12th Amendment states that anybody who is eligible for the presidency under Article II of the Constitution (a natural-born citizen age 35 or older) is eligible for the vice presidency. Clinton is a natural-born citizen over 35, so he qualifies. The putative roadblock to a Clinton vice presidency--the 22nd Amendment--doesn't apply. This hastily worded and passed amendment, designed to block another multi-multi-term presidency such as FDR's, only bars the election of a president to more than two terms in that office. It doesn't prevent a two-term president from running for the vice presidency.

The 25th Amendment affords Clinton another route to the vice presidency: In the event the vice presidency is vacated, the president appoints a new veep, subject to confirmation by Congress. (This is how Gerald Ford and Nelson Rockefeller became vice president.)

Nothing in the Constitution would prevent Vice President Clinton from becoming president via succession. Finally, another scenario could return Clinton to the White House without a pit stop at the vice presidency. If both the presidency and the vice presidency were vacated and Bill Clinton were the speaker of the House, he would become president under the 1948 presidential succession act. (Next in line, the president pro tempore of the Senate and then the cabinet officers in the order specified by the act.)

To the Clinton-Clinton ticket:

There was an article in the Wall St. Journal a few days back talking about this very thing. As in turns out Clinton lawyers are getting interpretation of this from different legal scholars. The concensus is...it depends on how you interpret the wording. The majority of the scholars, judges, etc polled was that it states he cant be "elected" President. But there is nothing that says he could not secede to the office. I will try to find the article and post it. But it looks as if the Clintons are trying to see if it is viable.

A choice between John McCain and Hillary. Boy, that ought to excite Republicans.:lol:

Either JM or Billary...you can guarntee the GOP with get behind McCain.

LSU would second that notion.

LSU was one game...Look at what the offense has done the rest of the year...Once again...IT HAS BEEN THE ONLY BRIGHT SPOT!

Dems will take over the house...which in turn will cause Hal Rogers to run for govenor...causing Ernie Fletcher to pull out of the race in Jan. and Hal will become the next Gov of KY.

Republicans will hold the Senate...BECAUSE...it is going to come down deadlocked and the swing vote is going to come from Indy Conn Sen Joe L. With his disgust for the dem party he will throw the balance of power to the GOP.

Next Year...

Hillary and Obama will be the leading Dem candidates for President. Billary (Yes Bill and Hillary) will do their patented character assasination on Obama finding dirt and vaulting Hillary to the nomination.

John McCain will easily win the Republican nomination sitting back watching Clinton and Obama rip each other apart.

McCain will easily beat Billary in the general election.

Just one mans thoughts.....

For one, Raceland did not get whipped by LCA. The Rams played their WORST game of the season that night and still only got beat 21-10. The LCA loss was the best thing to happen to the Rams. They are more focused and determined than ever before. Remember my words... Raceland WILL beat LCA. No doubt about it. After they do that, I am VERY confident that they can make it all the way to Papa Johns. The RACELAND RAMS are LIGIT! Something special is happening in Raceland. But dont take my word for it, the stats and the play of the young men do all the talking. I advise you not to make an opinion about the Rams until you have seen them play.

No doubt about it? Thats pretty confident in a team who has took a yearly beating since Rains came to LCA...And who got beat by a YOUNG LCA team in THEIR house!

Legit...not Ligit!:thumb:
