If i had a son, He would spend more time beating your kids up for lunch money, making napalm out of gas and Oj, and setting traps in the woods.
he wouldn't have time for the political crap.
but i would say that most kids would enjoy seeing thier president in a flight suit, and they would look up to him.
I'd rather teach my kids respect for the offices of our government then disrespectfull little political stroking like we do here every day.

No, we find it offensive when politicians want to shortchange our real servicemen and belittle their contribution (for some the ultimate price) only to crank billions into social programs that do nothing but make otherwise independent people dependent on the labors of others for no better reason than to buy a voting base.
Oh, you mean like Bush & Co. cutting 25 BILLION from Veterans Affairs and making sure that no news of any medical benefits gets to those veterans while dressing up in an aviator costume pretending to be a war hero?
Yeah, that would piss me off too.

Great, but they should also be taught who or what characteristics make a person worthy of respect. Simply being in a possition of influence don't grant one respect, they must earn and maintain that.

sure they would. it would be a buisness arrangement.
your son would whine and cry about the aggression and would say that they should ban all wrist rockets, and should start some new after school programs to help the weaker students.
and the whole time my kid would have your kid's lunch money.

They already have that one... In fact, you have a wide variety of Gore action figures... from Transformers to GoBots... to the droids like C3PO from Star Wars... that is, there are many toys that depict robotic beings out there.

You know that GI Joe came out with a Robert E. Lee action figure, don't you? It was in their American Heroes series.
MWAHHHAAAHHAA (OIMD sits back and prepares for colonel to have a stroke).

Now, look what's happened. Since the truth is starring the republicans right in the face, they dodge and hide by cracking jokes. Well, no amount of dodging will change the fact that Bush and is "action figure" are frauds.

That's veiled racist crap and you know it. The welfare queen went out of style with the Welfare Reform Act by Clinton in the mid 90s. So, where's this 25 billion going?
Originally posted by astrocreep
I would say right off ..its wasted. But thats been my take on government for a long time. It should be going back to the people who work to earn it and invest in capital to generate it. I'm so glad the welfare queen is no more. You have really brightened my day..in fact, i think I'll stop in the PJs on the way home and tell them all...because i don't think they know yet. I don't see where race comes into it since I made to reference to race...but thats page three of the play book ..I just remembered....
