    The point is, as I am sure you know, it was established US policy to remove Saddam from power.

    The point is that the photo I posted is not a swastika which proves that yes, he could have chosen another pattern and yes even the swastika is harmless.

    U.S. policy to remove a world leader of some other country? And that's OK? What then is the difference between that and Iran's policy to remove Israel?

    You many not like the fact removing Saddam from power became official US policy in 1998, but it remains a fact.

    Well, if YOU say so (it's still not true)... But your continual effort to push that misstatement is telling in and of itself...

    Sure, So Lincoln operated as a dictator to those he ordered to die in the civil war not to mention every other president who went to war.

    If that is what you got from my comment, you need new glasses. Apparently you aren't aware of the history of the jews and anti-semitism for the past 2,000 years or so.

    Oh so the "liberty" movement is akin to the anarchist movement. No government is the best government.
    Yet another example of a political philosophy that totally ignores human nature.




    It would be informational it is was factual and not riddled with opinion.

    Amazing interpretation of history not to mention a completely ridiculous comparison.

    Brandolini perfectly describes why I do not respond in detail.

    I choose to read ALL the words in your posted section of the law, instead of leaving out probably the most important word....

    It's why something with as many words as the Mueller report has almost zero chance of making it...

    How did Amash figure it out??

    The fact you choose to be wrong about this means nothing.

    Seems I need to lead you to water AND put the straw in your mouth.. I used Bold, Underline, Color and Font Size to highlight the key portion of the law... I cannot make it flash on and off.... sorry

    It should be the policy of the United States to support efforts to
    remove the regime headed by Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq and to
    promote the emergence of a democratic government to replace that regime.

    See, when you take those 3 words out, it says exactly what you thought it said....

    I managed to get you to agree with me. Thanks. I am indeed aware of jews history.

    No, when you stop assuming all the time, we might actually have a decent talk.

    You spend most of your conscious hours living as an anarchist. I am very sensitive of it.

    During most of your time, you are totally unaware of how well you function as an anarchist.

    Essentially as an anarchist, you choose when to wake up, what reply to make to me, what you have for meals yet nothing bad happens to you.

    If you notice, you live as an authoritarian but I do not.

    Were you able to self direct, you could perhaps live a productive happy life in tranquility. But you will have none of that since you want to rule me. I do not try to rule you though. I keep seeing proof you want to rule me.

    Nothing here changes the fact you choose to be wrong.

    Girl Scouts & Boy Scouts (from 1907) and other Americans helped spread the USA's "Nazi" salute worldwide, and the swastika, and robotic chanting to flags in military formation. http://rexcurry.net/pledge-of-allegiance-scouting.html

    This is also an example of how the American stiff arm salute was spreading beyond use in the Pledge of Allegiance, where it developed from 1892. In the USA, children would dress in uniforms (scouts), wave flags, and were forced to perform the stiff arm salute in government schools that imposed segregation and taught racism, and it occurred long before the behavior was adopted in Germany's Hitler Youth (and by Young Pioneers in the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics).

    It is frightening to note that the Scouts also used the swastika symbol, including a badge with the swastika. Here

    Boy Scouts swastika Badge http://rexcurry.net/pledge-of-allegiance-scouting.html#BOY_SCOUTS_SWASTIKA

    More on the Boy Scouts swastika http://rexcurry.net/scouts-swastika-thanks-badge-scouting.gif

    It is interesting to note that early examples of the Boy Scout swastikas were yellow and in the same S-letter direction as the swastika of the 45th Infantry Division. It is not clear which one predates the other.

    Because the word "scouting" begins with the letter "S," the use of the swastika symbol in Scouting is consistent with the symbol's alphabetical symbolism for the letter "S" and S-symbolism in their sibilant speech sounds.

    That means they were dashing about the globe (including Germany) wearing paramilitary uniforms with swastikas, doing stiff-arm salutes, waving flags, and (in the USA) chanting mechanically to flags with the pledge's early stiff arm salute, years before, and leading up and beyond the creation of the National Socialist German Workers Party. See the You Tube video documentary

    Many of those young men eventually joined the USA's military or they were forced to join via involuntary servitude in the draft.
    http://rexcurry.net/45th-infantry-division-swastika-sooner-soldiers.html

    It helps to explain why similar behavior occurred in the USA's military.

    In 1915, fasces appeared on an Indian head gold coin in the talons of an eagle. In 1916, fasces appeared on the Mercury dime. It was propaganda to con Americans into another one of the many stupid wars that the USA's government either started or joined: WWI (the war to make the world safe for democracy, har har).

    So what you mean for your president is he really wanted to keep Saddam in power and scrap his own law. Congress in the debates knew what he wanted done to Saddam.

    Bush must have got it since he supported efforts to get rid of the Saddam regime.

    Obama was only able to produce a computer generated image of a certificate of birth.

    Most native born Hawaiians actually can produce a real certificate of birth.

    Here's a real Hawaiian birth certificate that was issued back in 1961 when Obama was born.

    Kinda looks like the birth certificate that was issued in the other 49 states back in the day.
    No computer generated certificates just an old Remington typewriter and a black ink pen.

    Well, not all single family homes are part of association, but if they are a gated community then they definitely are. Townhouses and condos always have associations. I live in a townhouse, so I’m part of one.
    There are lots of benefits from being in association - I don’t have to cut grass, plow snow and do the general groundskeep - association takes care of that. We also have a huge pool here, something that I wouldn’t be able to afford on my own. The downside is that yes, you pay fees and they have restrictions on what you can do with your property. For example, I cannot have anything attached to the siding of the building, and cannot fence up and use my front porch to grow tomatoes. Luckily, I have my own fenced yard where I can do whatever I want.

    HOA 101.... well said...

    I'm in a single family non-gated community with HOA fees...So I DO have to mow my yard, but they do the common areas...

    I have access to 4 outdoor pools and a huge sports pavilion.... I guarantee my monthly fees are more than yours...

    (and we can have a medium garden, if we keep it hidden on the side of the house)

    As I said in this thread several days ago, our HOA reps walk around the neighborhood once or twice a year and write up homeowner violations.... usually paint or repair trim or power washing... My neighbors grumble a little (as people will), but they end up doing it all, since it's for the common good of all of us.

    But I can see the advantages of living outside of that system too.... That's where Nick the Nazi should be...

    Still very unclear, though. Who owns the plot of land you purchased? If you own it outright, they cannot make you do ANYTHING, or pay ANYTHING. Legally, this is a minefield. I'm stunned people put up with it.
