Waco ... and Glass ...

You are woefully uninformed because you don't listen to people who tell the truth.

The OCW people are the same people (ACORN et al) aka Obama's base, who caused the financial crisis... now they are protesting the results of their actions of intimidating and pressuring banks to give loans to people who couldn't afford them.. .

Additionally associated with OCW, SEIU's Stephen Lerner (one of Barack Obama's butt-boys) is pushing a plan to purposely topple the banks into a second Financial Crisis by calling for a Mortgage Strike. He says if he can get a million people to stop paying their mortgages... we can collapse Wall Street again.

Lerner was taped discussing this plan at a conference at Pace University in Westchester. The audio is on Youtube. This is the unedited full audio ... not info from any source you dislike like Beck and Coulter or Fox

It is amazing how many people are unaware the US was threatening bankers with legal action if they did not write enough low income/bad credit mortgages to minorities. Go to youtube and check it out. Also, a banker told me he was threatened with JAIL time if his office didn't write more of those toxic mortgages. The government caused this recession with well intentioned policies which had BAD results.
 
I didn't call you a gopher faced anything. Leave me out of it. I am informed, I listen to truth speakers and you are crazy. Let's just leave it at that. Pilot forums are not the place to discuss God or politics.

Good day sir.

I kinda look like a gopher first thing in the morning...
 
I didn't call him gopher faced, either. It was that other guy, Rettofly. I just suggested that gunfighter is way, way outside the bellcurve of political thought. I said it nicely, although I do admit I was rude to Rettofly, to whom I apologize. I am sorry that I insulted Rettofly. But you got to realize that gophers don't look so bad. In fact, they are kind of cute. Rettofly, are you cute?

"Never, EVER believe a lying video of a radical progressive spouting a message designed to bring down the United States as we have known it. It might motivate you to publicly disagree with those who have swallowed th Kool Aid of the left, and that would tend to upset said Kool Aid consumers and, in turn, motivate them to (in a very civil manner, of course) refer to you as a moron, idiot and other terms of endearment. :rolleyes:"

If this post motivated you to refer to me as a gopher faced idiot, I'll just have to suck it up. Sometimes we just have to suffer for speaking the truth. Given the current state of political discourse, I've had plenty of opportunities to do so. No apology needed. It's all fun for me now that I don't have to deal with the PIE puzzle palace any more. :p

Don't mean to brag, but my wife thinks I'm cute, and she has exquisite taste.

...with one tenth the population and twice the tax burden.

But the House today said they don't like the $100 user fee. Instead, they want to tax people who make $1 million or more a year. Guess on this Board that would be.......huh.........?
Think about what you just said: the HOUSE (GOP play land) says "no" (surprise) to the landing fee, but THEY want to tax the $1M+ people? Really? Sure about that statement?

Add up your taxes...ALL of them: income, home/property, gas, sales (city, county, township, state), car registration, levees, assessments, XYZ stadium tax, etc. You'll find you are likely paying MORE taxes than Canadians, Swedes, Germans, Dutch, etc. And "getting" about a 1/3 of the benefit.

When you add it all up, you're easily in the 40-50% range and you STILL have to pay for crap medical coverage, buy paper and supplies for Suzie's elementary school class, pay tolls over a road/bridge, your education beyond HS, your retirement/pension, etc.

So, hell yeah, I'll pay my share; I'd pay more if it DID anything for us.

More than $.60 of every dollar is going to direct military/defense spending (not including programs that can actually steer more monies to it). Yeah...take that $.01 away from education. THAT will fix it.
 
The Internet allows like-minded people to connect. We are all like-minded in that we are all pilots. We are NOT politically like-minded. We should probably focus on our similarities instead of our fringe dis-agreements seeing as this is a place for pilots to gather and discuss and not a place for folks with political agendas to push their views.

I do realise I myself am guilty of not following this advise. I promise to seriously work on that going forward.

Fly safe all,

Really? That's a shocking news flash. :eek:

According to OMB (google it), Defense is about $550B out of $3620B in FY2012. I'm no statistician, but that's more like $.15 of every dollar.
 
So that's it...

12 hours, a grammar correction and you're right back at it? Peace out. This board has become a $10 irrelevance hole.
