That’s not an answer…

Of course it is. You took a verse out of the Old Testament and misapplied it. Imagine that?

The choices were:

Option A Is the Bible right and Bushco wrong?

Option B Is the Bible wrong and Bushco right?

I’ll take what’s behind door number 3 Monte. The Bible is right when understood by a Child of God. Bush is right when understood in the context of a global economy. I’m not an economist (hated the subject) and neither are you but I do know that a trade deficit isn’t as bad as it’s cracked up to be. However, I’m willing to entertain the notion that America would be better off if we nuked Red China and bought our cheesy worthless crap from a country that didn’t use slave labor and took our money and technology to build a machine to kill us with.

You know I think we should be a self-supportive secular democracy. Not a codependent theocratic empire (per current behavior).

We are a self supportive secular democracy. The fact that George Bush and the majority of the citizens of this country are Christians (or some form of Christian) doesn’t change that. What you’re saying is that you’d like us to just pull it all in, put up the trade barriers and forget that this little island of comparative peace and freedom isn’t all alone and that we have global responsibilities.

There are lions out there that need to be caged.

You’re right – but it’s hard… I teach high school Science and even they can handle my vocabulary :).

You’d better hope not or you’ll end up finding out what torture it is to be milked 5 times a day (like a dairy cow in this country).

Because there’s money in snakeoil?

Deuteronomy 15:6
…you will lend to many nations, and borrow from none;

So which is it – is the Bible wrong or the Bush Regime for borrowing money from China? Hmmm?

So you think this country should be a Jewish theocracy?

Say that again after Iran converts to Euros… If you don’t get that what goes up much come down by now, you’re going to be in for a rude awakening when it does.

I was in St. Petersburg (Russia) just at the time that the ruble fell from roughly 1:1 with the dollar to 1:33. People were becoming homeless faster than they could cash their worthless paychecks. Rows and rows of people living on the streets wearing everything they could put on and sleeping on layers of cardboard. I’d never seen anything like it. And, as you should recall from history, the Russian Empire was once quite strong, mighty and seemingly invincible. If you don’t think the same could happen to us if we don’t start weening ourselves from foreign money, then you are even more delusional than I previously figured.

Even your playbook says so:

Deuteronomy 15:6
…you will lend to many nations, and borrow from none;

So which is it – is the Bible wrong or the Bush Regime for borrowing money from China? Hmmm?

You should fire your agent. He’s lying to you.

But, what if you are wrong?

I have considered what if I am. Just wonder if you have.

The Islamists would like us to know they are displeased with our intervention into their affairs, thus the threats. But they know that we are the only game in town.

I don’t buy anything produced by Ratbastardcommiemofo Red Chinese slave labor. (If I know) The only shopping I do at Wally’s is from Sam’s and that is the extra large breaded butterfly shrimp they get from God knows where.

As far as our currency goes, we have something better to hold their feet to the fire. We have you and your insatiable lust for cheap anything. Besides, they could dump a trillion into the Euro and it wouldn’t phase us at all. It’s a drop in the bucket. But why would they want to invest in a kaput European Union? And when was the last time you heard the word superpower and European Union used in the same sentence? HA!
