You are living proof that you cannot debate with someone who does not use common sense and logic as a foundation. Most of your previous posts I just disagreed with. This one is so full of s**t, it's smelling up the house.

>>>Your boy George proposed that one.

* In the 1996 Telecom Bill, there exists language that asks the FCC to "enhance" the access of school children to the Internet. The FCC (run by political appointees) decided the language in that bill allows them to tax the telephone companies in order to pay the cost of wiring schools for Internet access. A vote of Congress is required to establish a federal tax. Congress did not vote on this.

* The FCC expected the phone companies to absorb this tax. Many phone companies defied the FCC and listed the tax as a separate line item on the phone bill.

* To administer this program, the FCC created a new bureaucracy. The head administrator, Ira Fishman, was assigned a salary of $200,000. The total cost of the program would have been about $2.3 billion, costing the average household $25/year.

* When Republicans protested, The FCC cut the program to $1.3 billion, cutting wealthier schools out of the program and folding the bureaucracy into an already existent corporation.

* Al Gore supported this proposal and went on tour with then FCC chairman Reed Hundt, speaking about the federal mandate to wire every school and library for Internet access. On June 10,1998 Al Gore stated "Students in predominately minority schools were 3 times less likely to have Internet access than those in predominately white schools." On June 8,1998 Al Gore stated, "The e-rate is critical to our efforts to put computers in every classroom and library, giving every child the tools to succeed."

>>>Yup If yopur preborn you are Protected if you are unfortunate enough to be born you are ???ked. especially if you are of use to the military.

Since when has your party protected the unborn? That's one of the more ludicrous things you have posted. Then you bash the military, while your boy Kerry is using 4 months in Vietnam as the cornerstone of his campaign.

>>>it takes both party's to make a majority and a hidden tax is better than no tax if you are a politician. Who's party was in power when our deficit went haywire. Reagan and GHWB never even submitted a balanced budget for consideration by Congress.

It takes a simple majority to pass a tax. Republicans attempted to pass a Constitutional Amendment in 1997 that would have required a 3/5ths majority vote in both Houses of Congress in order to run a deficit. To create a Constitutional Amendment, it must pass both Houses of Congress with a 2/3 majority and 3/4 of the individual States must ratify it. The Amendment was defeated primarily by Democrats. N.J. Senator, Democrat Bob Toricelli promised voters in his 1995 campaign that he would vote for a Balanced Budget Amendment. He voted against the Amendment and it failed to pass the Senate by one vote.

>>>housing 25%
>>>food 25%
>>>taxes federal, state, sin 50%
>>>Tithing (religion of your choice) 10%

It's kind of you to set my budget. But that's what you dems do best, tell everyone else how to live because you know best.

Paul, you are definitely world class. I have met few people who can talk out of both sides of their mouth and pass gas simultaneously.

You can respond all you want, but not only will I not counter to it, I will not even read it.
