    I am done. It is obvious you are totally incapable of any discussion beyond screaming and crying about evil Republicans and stupid details. I don't feel like going back and opening the document again, but the gist was they were quoting military budget prices out of things that *surprise* weren't military budget documents, they were other books about how the military spends too much. You say you don't vote party lines and then cry how all Republicans are evil and scum. You sir are a moron. You say stupid shit like "my boy Negroponte"...oh yes that is right...party line team voters don't understand that you don't have to support everyone in a party. I realize that is a tad confusing to you, but its true, there really are still Republicans that aren't right wing religious fanatics. Just FYI, the people that make headline news aren't the only republicans in the world. There are quite a few at local and state government levels that aren't part of the national shenannagins. Just like there are dems at local levels that aren't whiney double talking shits. You wanna be pissed...be pissed at the Democrats that voted for the war and are now trying to back out now that its not going well. The majority up on capitol hill just make policy to fill their own coffers regardless of what party they claim. The reason they claim parties is to get idiot fanatics like you to team vote them in and allow them to keep the populace divided screaming about how your team sucks more than my team, and your team is evil and stupid, so the people are too busy screaming stupid shit at eachother to notice they are being fucked from above. It keeps anyone from popping up in the middle of the road with an agenda of positive change...anyone middle gets attacked by the left as being an evil murderer republican and the right crucifies them for being a godless heathen liberal. I'm not fond of where we are right now, but you have some delusional fantasy where I am to blame for the corrupt asshats that call themselves Republicans.

    However, you have proved my original point better than I could have myself. That there is a horde of irrational screaming lefties around here that would rather "murder a Republican" and "military is evil" than ever look at the individuals responsible and work with people from both parties who haven't been total fuckups to try and get us back on track.

    Just make sure you don't forget the movie companies that fall under the Sony umbrella (MGM/Columbia) as part of the boycott. Damn, no Stargate:SG-1 boxsets for me :(

    The egg came first.
    People always asks about the chicken and the egg. I have known for years, that the egg came before the chicken. It is quite obvious, when you think about it. Egg laying creatures have existed long before the chicken, one of them slowly evolved into the chicken. When the first chicken saw the light of day, it came from an egg, and so did its ancestors for generations.

    "The egg came first."

    read and weep evolutionists:

    "And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

    And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

    And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth."

    See ??? first god created the chicken, then the chicken laid the first egg!

    it's so clear now, isn't it ?

    Good. Very good. How much longer can we tolerate the cantankerous boors turning our cities into places of bestial debauchery?

    An ideal society must always strive to be a surveillance state. In the old times the good people were never alone, but always watched by an impartial Judge that saw every transgression and metted out the punishment accordingly; God was that Judge.

    Now, the cameras extend the same heavenly ideal to the godless heathen scum that spit on the street, jump ahead of elderly women in a queue, and steal the pennies from the blind.

    It is interesting to notice that those voicing their discontent are precisely the ones treating our streets as their personal sty.
