    I am opposed to "the Foundations", Tax Free Foundations specifically; our take on them is different. The Dodd report was all innuendo and accusation, zero fact.

    I was reading about that stuff, when you were in diapers, it appears from the same perspective as you. What I've discovered in the interim is that the same people that wrote the books you're reading are the people doing their worst to take advantage of OUR Free Enterprise system to the detriment of common everyday AmeriCANs.

    in the 1930s the communist party was very popular in the US, nothing was known of stalins brutality YET, we have since learned of stalins brutality and nobody with a brain equates soviet writings of a utopian world with the real world of soviet stalinist russia, John Birch was in fact an american inteligence agency posing as a religious missionary in china, the religious sect of christianity the JBS pushes also included "indoctrination" if you will into converting for christ, and the RW ignores this and never mentions it..in international relations this version of christianity does little to make us friends,,,
    the right keeps calling the banking system a monolithic block, while i agree the bankers are all about greed, power and control, they are not united and fight among factions of themselves

    I assume the whole point of the right wing is everybody for themselves and who cares about the rest?

    I'm getting there. But, the point is I've read those books and more. Therefore I know your mindset, you really need to quit looking for communists under every bush. They aren't there.
    No I'm not, which means you don't know jack **** about me.
    Did you really think I would listen to over and hour of Righty drivel? :roll:

    It's free and not so much a book than a short read.
