ARE YOU CAPABLE OF RATIONAL THOUGHT?
ARE YOU CAPABLE OF RATIONAL THOUGHT
For the purpose of this posting, Linden will assume that you are a taxpaying U. S. citizen, favor the candidacy of Barack Obama, can read and have some regard for those who will follow you down life's pathway. At the conclusion of this posting, please digest the available information relative to H.R. 1302 and S2433.
The Global Poverty Act of 2007 was introduced in the House by Adam Smith (D-WA) and had 84 co-sponsors. To Linden's sorrow, 4 or 5 of them were republicans - one of which was listed as being Christopher Shays (CT): Linden has long considered him to be ripe for replacement. We should expect a "rob the taxpayer" bill of this type to be largely supported by democrats. But, not by Republicans. Barack Obama (your presidential candidate) introduced the bill in the Senate: Of the 14 co-sponsors, three were republicans. Perhaps it is time for Richard Lugar (IN), Gordon Smith (OR) and Olympia Snowe (ME) to fall on their swords.
In a nutshell, it appears that these supporters want every man, woman and child in the U.S. to be charged about an additional $40.00 per week for years to support a U.N. initiative that would lessen the interests of the U.S. The thought is that developed countries whould provide .7% of their GNP to aid the less developed nations. This cost is not based on need. Naturally, this is strongly supported by the U.N. and thereby, for Linden, provides another reason to get us out of this worse than worthless organization.
