    Sorry. Your goobermint gave all your money to Boeing, GE, Bechtel, Brown and Root, Israel, Africa, Columbia and you ALL were too stupid to put Ron Paul in office.
    Now you have either Rambo or Mike Tyson.
    Ahhh. Your CIA woulda taken out Ron Paul anyway.
    Enjoy your demise.

    Can I hear "Amen," somebody?
    And now, will someone please take us voters and those whom we have elected to task for the shameful lack of funding for housing and treating the mentally ill in this country? Even without the Omaha tragedy, the numbers of untreated and homeless among the mentally ill has been yet another thousand-pound gorilla in the national living room. Someone has got to start acting for the common good and promoting the "general welfare" of the nation, and not for the profit of the few wealthiest in the nation. Either we're together, and that means we all have to give up a little bit of what we have so that everyone can have what they need, or we're isolated, cut off from each other, and without honor. Eight years of profit taking by the rich is enough. Time to clean house before a hungrier, more honorable nation does it for us.
