Have we just gotten so used to Bush Administration corruption that we don't even notice it anymore, or is the Corporate Press making sure we don't get a chance to focus on it? President Bush has continually appointed those that have a similar disdain for ethics and government responsibility. This is just one more case of the disasterous results of Republican rule. Please think about it carefully before you vote in November, whoever the candidates end up being. CLICK HERE

White House like McCain or a Corporate Raider like Romney, or an out and out Socalist like Clinton (or Obama to a lesser extent).
Conspiracy theories are desperate attempts from the wide eyes who can't win on issues. Everybody but the wing nuts blind with hatred knows this.
Numbnuts, it was covered both in the press and on the tube. Guess it didn't make the wing nut fringe blogs, huh?
Oh, and here's my 10.
I had no idea you had such a vocal fan club.........LOL.
Its fun to see a Lefty like you ducking and weaving so much. You're almost as popular as Tony S...............keep trying. I know you will.
It isn't that no one noticed the Dan Rather nonsense. Its just that no one cares. He's been disgraced, and we're happy to have it end there.

Ron -
You're not really trying to press the case that Dan Rather's "evidence" is real, are you? Not after he's been so flamed for his fakery, by virtually everybody. No one is rushing to his aid. Well maybe the crackpot Leftist fringe, but that's it.

Rather was forced out.........that's why he's suing CBS. But really, who cares? LOL
Your Salon.com article only loaded to an advertisement.
Your Salem News article............wasn't. It was an op-ed piece. Honestly, Ron, do you really not know how to use a solid, unbiased source to back up your opinion? That was a sad and pathetic attempt. Try again.
If my points keep you off welfare, then I did my part......lol.
Are you talking about the National Taxpayers Union? Are you crazy? Oh wait........you are.
You have no backing from anyone at all to argue the NTPU numbers. None. Thankfully, you've never tried to lie your way out of that one.
70% of US taxes are paid by just 10% of the population.
Only 3% of taxes are paid by 50% of the population.
Those statistics, Ron? You can't argue it because we all know, deep down, that it's true.............now it doesn't need to just be felt deep down. We have the numbers to prove it. And it won't be disproved.
-San Francisco Chronicle
And that's from a very Liberal newspaper.
The NTPU is for Taxpayer Rights, a Federal Balanced Budget Amendment, and for defeating excessive government spending...........especially deficit spending. Those aren't just Conservative ideals, they're Democratic party ideals.
Although you're far off the mark on your percentages, a vast amount of wealth resides in the hands of a small percentage of people. But that is true worldwide, not just in America. The rich run things and own lots of equity, Ron. You and I have no argument about that. This is the way it's been since the beginning of recorded time, and I suspect it will remain that way no matter what tax system we adopt. Are you "raging against the machine" again here? You aren't going to change this fact..........and I don't want it changed.
Oh by the way, the NTPU does not measure wealth concentration. That figure can only be guessed about, since there are no real ways to calculate specifics.
Prove what you say.
I already know that you're a liar, and can't back your statistics up. But I'll give you this opening to prove me wrong. I think you'll either slink away and say nothing (again) or you'll just try and BS me. Either way, you have no way to prove that 2-3% of US population holds 98% of the wealth.
I triple dog dare you..............
" a vast amount of wealth resides in the hands of a small percentage of people."
That's good enough for me, and it supports my statements anyway. Whether it's the top 3% or the top 10%, it justifies my argument.
Think Jason Blair.
I think you're on the wrong thread. You seemed to be obsessed with talking about war. This thread is about something completely different. Pay attention for once, and stop leading with your big mouth.
" yahda" = Ron's got no argument.
IMnsHO.
