3. Dear Extremist..
Actually I'm considered extreme by many folks that throw tags around without thought. Sometimes conditions require extreme behavior - history has taught us this. Thank you for responding and have a great New Year!

5. Good on ya Raoul for saying what you think
Edited on Sun Dec-27-09 05:54 PM by ooglymoogly
If you can ever put your thumb on the truth it will slither away, back under a rock, where it is forced to live a meager existence, because that is the way things are in this country. The truth is just not meant to jell here because that is the way politicians and the powers that be want it. Anyone who quotes George Carlin is at least on the right track.

12. Sorta right I guess
You're right in a way about the truth being hidden but if history has taught us anything, it's that sometimes it still burst out no matter how much they try to hide it. It may take decades to do so but the truth always comes out in the end.

6. That was so awesome on so many levels. And a Cowboys fan to boot!
I was just having this very same discussion with my father in law this weekend. I wish I had found your videos to show him.

7. I had a epiphany
about this country one night in a fox hole forty years ago. When the sun rose I'd ceased being a nationalist and had become a patriot. Good video. Thanks. However, any day that's bad for the Cowboys is a good day. Sorry.

13. Yeah, maybe. [g]
Okay, I'll confess - prior to the NY Giants' incredible decline I was wavering and thinking about jumping ship to them. After all, I love vacationing in NYC. But I've firmed up and will now remain with the 'Boys (for this season anyway).. LOL

8. Yes! Tell it like it is.
I enjoyed watching your videos. In one of them you pointed out how the rich are treated differently under the law; so true, look at the way Rush Limbaugh was treated after his little doctor shopping incident...pretty much scott free.

14. There's more
There's alot more about ole Rushbo that may come out eventually. Something about his taste for little boys in South America according to rumors going around on Sirius radio.

10. Hear, hear, brother.
Keep it up. Billions of dollars can only silence billions of voices if we let it happen.

11. Happy New Year Raoul!
Keep it coming in 2010. I couldn't agree with you more. We have to get people like you running for office.

17. ROFL
That's a good one - I cracked up when I read your comment about me running for office. Don't hold your breath. I DESPISE politics. The last time I ran for anything was when I was on a slate of candidates for union positions. We got our rear ends handed to us on a platter. Were we the lesser of the candidates? Nope - it was simply because union members wanted 'change' so they voted in some of the most incompetent loonies you could find. Three years later they were begging me to run again (they voted the others out of office). I merely laughed at them..
