Dreamster: Hmmm, I think it's crazy that the public dialogue and real rational debate is being taken over by 30 second TV clips. It's the grand Orwellian nightmare at the best. I do agree with Ryan on one thing. It's time to pay the pied piper. Clinton had essentially eliminated the deficit during the economic good times of the 90s. Bush essentially pushed the US into a deep deficit, with unreasonable tax cuts. The aversion to tax doesn't make sense, if it reduces your ability to tackle it later. It's simple, pay your bills now ... before the ability to change becomes next to impossible.

Yes, it means cuts in services. But it also means increasing taxes.

I think a simple dose of reality goes a long way.

sssssttt4: your spirit bursts from you with life, melding ideas and emotions creatively. I recall one time, as a young boy, navigating my way blindly through a maze of tunnels and staircases until I surfaced at the stern of a large ocean liner. The bright sky flooded over me but, more importantly, apon blinking, I saw an albatross gliding. It seemed to be suspended, no more than ten feet above me, tipping a wing here and there, but showing no exertion as it rode the breeze and followed us to deeper waters.

jeanieinabottle: Thanks sss.
