A Theist Wrote:$1.5 trillion in debt

I hate to break this to you, but I've seen you throw this number around in quite a few posts now. You guys are actually in debt by $13 trillion...

Sorry...
...sorry, I meant the federal budget deficit,... but you're right, we're $13 trillion in debt.

This is the U.S. "debt clock". The numbers are astounding...

Quote:I asked "What evidence do you have that grant money is being "throw(n) away" by NPR?".
This is twice I had to tell you to go back and read my post. I was making reference to the government throwing money away. My original quote...

Quote:I don't care how government grants work, the money is still coming out of the taxpayers pockets, (Washington finds it pretty easy to throw other peoples money around).
Federal grants for NPR is part of our government waste. There's no real purpose for public taxpayer funded broadcasting. What does it serve? Cut the taxpayer funding to NPR and public broadcasting, and let them stand on their own.

Quote:Schiller had a point.
...the point being, there's double standard hypocrisy at NPR. It was okay for Nina Totenberg to wish aids on Jesse Helms and his grandchildren, but not okay for Juan Williams to say he got nervous when he saw Muslims in muslim garb on airplanes. After what happened on 9-11, Williams was only stating what a lot of Americans feel. Some journalistic ethics at NPR.

"Inside every Liberal there's a Totalitarian screaming to get out"

Quote:It was an awful mistake to characterize based upon religion. I should not judge any theist that way, I must remember what I said in order to change.
