Acorn is a distraction from important issues. Curious that the name is repeated so often, and yet they probably helped lots more people in American than the right wingnuts who constantly bring up their name. When you do something good for all, you do something that counts. Acorn did that.
"Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy." Proverbs 31:8-9
"The magnitude of the fiscal wreckage and the severity of the economic dangers that resulted are too great to permit such an easy verdict. In the larger scheme of democratic fact and economic reality there lies a harsher judgment. In fact, it was the basic assumptions and fiscal architecture of the Reagan Revolution itself which first introduced the folly that now envelops our economic governance.
The Reagan Revolution was radical, imprudent, and arrogant. It defied the settled consensus of professional politicians and economists on its two central assumptions. It mistakenly presumed that a handful of ideologue were right and all the politicians were wrong about what the American people wanted from government." David Stockman, The triumph of politics
- Our second republican, a Reagan republican:
'The Mother of All Messes' By Paul Craig Roberts
"Republicans are sending around the Internet a photo of a cute little boy whose T-shirt reads: The mess in my pants is nothing compared to the mess Democrats will make of this country if they win Nov. 2nd.
One can only wonder at the insouciance of this message. Are Republicans unaware of the amazing mess the Bush regime has made?
It is impossible to imagine a bigger mess. Republicans have us at war in two countries as a result of Republican lies and deceptions, and we might be in two more wars--Iran and Pakistan--by November. We have alienated the entire Muslim world and most of the rest.
The dollar has lost 60% of its value against the euro, and the once mighty dollar is losing its reserve currency role.
The Republicans policies have driven up the price of both oil and gold by 400%.
Inflation is in double digits. Employment is falling.
The Republican economy in the 21st century has been unable to create net new jobs for Americans except for low wage domestic services such as waitresses, bartenders, retail clerks and hospital orderlies." Paul Craig Roberts: The Mother of All Messes
There is no substitute for Integrity. Keep studying that Bible Midcan, that's admirable. Watch out with that mix with politics though, in relation to the corruption of principle. You might want to cut back on the Kool-Aid just a bit, it's effecting your judgement. Claimed good intention is no substitute for competence and ability. The end does not justify the means. The means is capable of disqualifying intent. You are entitled to your own opinion, not re manufacturing history or fabricated facts. No offense meant. When Studying Bible, try to consider Government's role in Revelation.
WTF? Are you just drunk all the time or a true whacko, "darling"...
The Government of the end times - what will it be like
