I found this on the net:

"Socialism on the college campus!!!
An economics professor at Texas Tech said he had never failed a singlestudent before but had, once, failed an entire class.
That class hadinsisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no onewould be rich, a great equalizer.
The professor then said "ok..., we will have an experiment in this class on socialism". "
All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so noone would fail and no one would receive an A".
After the first test the grades were averaged and everyone got a B.
The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy.
But, as the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too; so they studied little..
The second test average was a D!
No one was happy.When the 3rd test rolled around the average was an F.
The scores never increased as bickering, blame, name calling all resulted inhard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.
Allfailed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism
would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort tosucceed is great; but when government takes all the reward away; no one will try or want to succeed.Could not be any simpler than that...."

War with China???

War with China ...that would be interesting.

Now we could win. If we waged war, but do we do that any more?

Do we even accept the CONCEPT of winning a war anymore???

I, somehow, don't think that the concept of avoiding unreasonable force is big on the Chinese army agenda...at least the Tibetans think so.

What would Japan do?

Rearm I think, remember that this is a re-do of the 30"s for Japan as well and best case have a go at China.Nightmare for us ...ally with China against us.

Question is does China fear the USA..

No, I don't think they do.

The leaders in China have a problem.

For the first time in history the common Chinaman has had a bit of the "good life": enough food..a job..a few goodies and they won't go back with out a revolution and the leaders know that.

I am sure that some of them see this whole "financial crisis" as a plot to destroy them by ruining their economics.

The party MUST fight or go economically forward to stay in power.

If as the Obama crowd claimed"our army is broken" fighting two small wars in the Mideast..How, the Chinese must be thinking, are the "long-noses" going to deal with a billion well armed Chinese?

I think that Obama will "deal" that is "Appease" China whether that will be good or bad in the long run I don't know.

karl

P.S. Just to make it clear, I don't think that our Armed Forces are broken.

My Marines, given a free hand, could burn Peking and reduce China to a laundry good only for washing our skivves...but I am not the CIC..Mr. Obama is.

I don't like Hill, but...

Re: Hillary shows her true colors: Activists 'shocked' at Clinton stance on China

If you are not going to fight and conquer and plunder as did Rome, and the West does not seem to have the heart for that anymore, you have got to negotiate and deal.

I don't like Hill but she is a realist.

Knowing that we will not force China to our will, she seeks to bargain with them.

Willful blindness

Re: British Muslims Supplying Tali ban With Electronic Devices For Roadside Bombs

The Moor has told us, has made every effort to tell us, that jihad is a religious duty.

Indeed, the duty MOST pleasing to Allah and the one sure path to Paradise.

So why in the world are the Brits surprised when the Moor does what he has told you he is going to do?

1800 years of history attest to the validity of his word in this.

Muslims MUST convert Christians, peacefully if they must, by war, if they can.

What can be plainer??????Every part sent, word published, every buck mailed, every action that aids in the jihad IS pleasing to Allah.

Only the blindness, induced by the lack of manhood, to see the moor as he is, and he plainly TELLS you that he is, prevent our waging total war against him.

The new "safe guns"

New gun control.

Don't kid yourself."making guns in this country childproof" is code for making guns that are so expensive that only the elite will be able to buy them.

Now, the old cheap "unsafe guns" will of course have to be handed in and once that is done and you have passed the Federal background check, you are of course free to buy that $15000 pistol or rifle that is "keyed" to your print alone.

Can't afford it?? Well, save your money.

The court said you have the right to own arms, just as you have the right to own a jet plane.

The question is, can you afford it????

Dem's will act now while they still have the political tide of the victory to push any thing they want in Congress.

Guns have been on their "to-do" list for 40 years.

All you fellas that did not vote or voted third party, Obama owes you a "thank-you" note for his new job.

Assuming that we get another chance in 2012 remember this.

I fell for that third party line once myself in 92 with Ross, We cannot let it happen again.

Enough with the politeness

I fella whose views I disagree with left a site I hang out on.
In his last post he called us racist fools.

You know ,at first, I did the polite thing.

"Sorry to see you go" " respect your views"..etc..

But that was a lot of crap.

This year I tell it like it is.

The man was a liberal or commie and is now back at "move on" .dot org or what ever liberal commie site he belongs to.

There is evil in this world and people who have views that are evil and it is just as evil to make a polite face and be gracious.

No..more..

karl...no more Mr. Manners.
