While we're very happy to have you in the Gulch and appreciate your wanting to fully engage, some things in the Gulch (e.g. voting, links in comments) are a
privilege, not a right. To get you up to speed as quickly as possible, we've provided two options for earning these privileges.
- You must reach a Gulch score of 10. You can earn points in the Gulch by posting content, commenting, or by other members voting up your posts.
- You may upgrade to a Galt's Gulch Producer membership to immediately gain these privileges.
Your current Gulch score:
Had W used the powers he already had to defend the US borders at home instead, the economy would be better, many soldiers would be living that are now dead, and the current massive immigration problem would be non-existant. But that would not have achieved the bankruptcy of the US that W's idiotic policies did while transferring power from the people to politicians and lobbyists and ripping up the Bill of Rights,
W was, and is, a traitor.
years ago which is rearing its ugly head to take us
out. . our Afghanistan response was necessary, though
too modest to rout them out quickly, and the incursion
into Iraq did respond to WMDs, and I know since
they killed my brother-in-law (chem weapons).
the Paulson crap was brought about by the Dems'
mandate that poor folks be given homes which
they could not afford. . sad result.
the runaway NSA is simply proof that govt power
will corrupt. . this principle is proven every time
we mess with it. . sorry.
the immigration problem sure did deserve the $$
spent elsewhere, and we could have save hundreds
of military lives by using different rules-of-engagement.
I understand your point of view;;; my niece is right
there with you, mentally. . hang in there! -- j
