Did not want to give them a complex, and that is how they are governing. They dont want to make our enemies mad at us.

For an individual Debt is bad, but for the government, it is not so bad..... Take a look at our National Debt that our leaders keep growing and growing....... We never make any principal payments, and as far as interest goes, we don’t make any payments on that either.. We just borrow the interest payment, and that becomes a part of the National Debt... So as far as our leaders are concerned, it is FREE MONEY...... And when you have a magical Lamp that gives you all the money you want, you do not respect the money, and spend it foolishly. As long as they don’t rub the magical Lamp to much, then inflation should take care of these budgetary debts. But mis-used, and the inflation will come on like a hurricane, and a loaf of bread will cost more than $100 Billion dollars. (Referenced to the cost of bread in Germany after WW1.) If we Balanced the Budget and got our house in order, we would not be having these silly conversations............

Soon, and very soon they will get the message........

Jefferson argued to eliminate the debt, and Hamilton argued it was necessary to keep the nation together. The Hamiltonians won, the conservatives of their time, and consequently it has also been argued that this difference between these two founders was the beginning of the liberal/conservative split in our country. President Jackson did not believe in debt, or banks for that matter, and he made a real effort to eliminate all federal debt. He got it down to $18,000 just before leaving office. All of the other 43 Presidents saw an increase in the national debt. (Including Obama here also) We have always inflated our way out of trouble in the past. But the question is can we once again inflate our way out of this mess. Stand by, Inflation is on its way.

They are the only participating partner in the 2010 Census that already knows where Mickey and Minney Mouse live, and Pluto and all the other characters that they registered to vote. So, they should be able to count then real quick, and there would be no hassle about the invisible inhabitants in the USA. Espically with ACORN on the job........... How do we as "We the People" protest something like this? When you are sending your Tea Bag to your members of Congress, drop a note for them to exclude ACORN from the Census....

Bush." I guess it is time to start calling Obama, "Catfish Barry".......... More serious though is the fact that Russia has the money to make these upgrades and new weapons, thanks to its Oil and Natural Gas exports to Europe. Because of our (the USA) addition to spending money we don't have, we now are not in any position to keep up the with Russians in a new Cold War... Can we plead......"God Bless America again".

At least AIG has a legal leg to stand on (existing contracts). The only leg Congress has to stand on is, “We did not say ‘Simon said’” Tue, 17 Mar 2009 02:23:40 +0000 http://theglennbeck912project.com/2009/03/16/aig-still-doesnt-get-it/#IDComment17117631 http://theglennbeck912project.com/2009/03/16/president-obama-is-ready-to-start-fund-raising-again/#IDComment17117252 "The love of money is the root of all evil." I think we should make campaign contributions from Lobbyists and Unions illegal, for this makes strange bed partners. Will unfettered money get to the Obama administration, as recipients from government contracts repay their debt to the government, and like wise then, the government repays the giver for their favor......

I don’t want to pick on ole Al Gore, but, he is the prime example of how well it pays. Al got out of office in 2001, and was worth about $2 million, now his is reported to be worth over $100 million. And just look at how many billions of dollars we are committing to climate change (as they want to call it now days). Just follow the money, and the recipient will say what ever to keep their grants and jobs Mon, 16 Mar 2009 19:32:24 +0000 http://theglennbeck912project.com/2009/03/16/global-warming-update/#IDComment17103940 http://theglennbeck912project.com/2009/03/15/china-is-worried-about-american-financial-obligations/#IDComment17088985 Our House is in dis-repair. With the bail-out and stimulus packages, we have let the recipients “Taste the Forbidden Fruit”, and they liked it, and want more and more and more. Enough will never be enough. I ask you to consider a “Balanced Budget Amendment”. Let us bring sanity back into our fiscal responsibilities. Can the future generations afford our bells and whistles, and debt. Consider what the USA may look like in another 30 to 50 years if we do not curb our spending. Most of us will see that period of time, and will we be thankful for our actions, or will we shake our heads in dis-belief. For this generation and the next generation, let us have a “Balanced Budget Amendment”.

But neither would Congress be allowed to forbid these bodies from free exercise of their dogma. I think those who try and destroy this section of our heritage should be rebuffed, for this is what made America, America. If a Chaplin gives a prayer, and they are not of my faith, or dogma, I would not be upset, for my belief is stronger than any man who may say words that I do not personally accept, but within the freedom of the Constitution are truths of self-evident, I say Amen with this Chaplin, and beam with pride because I am an American, who can overcome diversity. When I took up arms in the military, I swore to defend all Americans, and our Constitution.

I will say most were religious, God fearing men. Some were Christian, some were Jewish, some were Naturalist, and some of various orders. They all argued just as you have been here, and came up with a great ruling, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;......” I think we have become to hung up on these words and can not see the trees for the forest. With the words of the Declaration of Independence fresh on their minds “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,” Mon, 16 Mar 2009 02:21:14 +0000 http://theglennbeck912project.com/2009/03/15/yes-virginia-there-should-be-a-division-of-church-state/#IDComment17065651 http://theglennbeck912project.com/2009/03/15/note-from-glenn/#IDComment17064177 I am in favor of term limits, even if we get someone really speaking for the people.... If we had 6 terms for Representative (12 years), 2 terms for Senator (12 years), then an additional 8 years as Vice President or President, that is 32 years of service. By the end of that time, he/she is probably not really the same person who was speaking for the people in the begining. Power erodes the vision of the leader. (Just my opinion) Mon, 16 Mar 2009 01:23:26 +0000 http://theglennbeck912project.com/2009/03/15/note-from-glenn/#IDComment17064177
