Alert the media—banks need money! Who’s stressed, who’s reassured by the government’s test of the banks’ capitalization? Meanwhile, Pakistan’s in serious danger, and Afghanistan’s hardly a model of an emerging democracy. Their leaders are in Washington; what will America’s role be?

Wow…. no “takers” as to my assertions…?  Is it that, no one “senses” that I’m “off the wall” so to speak….?

Hmmmm…..

As an aside, Mr. Blankley…. do you have “friends” or supporters who would….. for example, for the THIRD TIME, “mess” with my personal vehicle?  Since it is readily apparent, that for the THIRD TIME in A MONTH, my vehicle has had “odd”, well…. let’s call them “peculiarities” (daughter of a mechanic, a good mechanic in fact).  Do you have “friends”, my friend?  If so, where are they located ( of course, I mean your friends of friends ) or…rather…, the jack-offs who endorse your fictitious rantings.

For the record, regarding these “possible supporters”.  You only ILLUMINATE yourselves, are easily understood and incomprehensibly corrupt.

Not to worry….., who tracks these sordid inconsistencies anyway…..?  It’s not as if they’re out on the WORLD WIDE WEB.

It behooves me to ponder that certain officials of Green Bay are simply HELL BENT upon “getting on the map”, endorse less than credible “practices” and are flagrantly arrogant regarding such….. funny, since there isn’t all that much here….well, excepting corruption…. who wants to be ON THE MAP for that…?

Some people NEVER learn though….., do they?  They simply assume they’ll be “big man on campus” indeterminately…. when in reality, they’d be annihilated in a FAIR fight, or a court of law, AND THEY SHOULD KNOW THIS BY NOW.  A conjecture they might want to seriously consider, before they go “beating up on ol’ grannies” ..... no?

Remember the “YONKERS AFFAIR”..... sure, that certainly was some “dirty deeds, done dirt cheap”.....  or were they?.....cheap, I mean.

Mr. Blankley…. strange, that you would invoke “The Taxpayer”, yes, again and again the TAXPAYER…...but let’s not be disingenuous, and allow The People a slice of their own dime.  Sure, let the NATIONAL SOCIALIST (ie. fascists for those unaware) BANKSTERS, set the stage.  I have an issue with semantics, as an encore will you enamor us with “mental gymnastics”?

Sorry, Mr. Blankley… your supposition that, everyone “should assess it as they want to”, MOVES this (ie. TAXPAYER) to posit…. DOES THAT INCLUDE EVERYONE… or simply those you deem worthy of recognition or those whom endorse your “redeeming”, albeit less than reliable “qualifications”?  Does your stance include.. the TAXPAYERS, whose MONEY THIS IS, BTW!

Additionally, Mr. Blankley, your outright LIE that “not everyone pays taxes” is fraudulent.

What do you call vehicle license registration, what do you call property taxes….even IF, PAID in the form of rent, what do you call SALES TAX, what do you call entrance fees to parks, state and national…. already paid for by The People (WHICH by the way, THEY OWN), what do call Marriage License “fees”, what do you call Library “fines”....do you require further elaboration?  I can go there.

Your attempt at the debasement of The American People, via the crooks in charge is less than appealing, furthermore why is it you are the only PLUMP person on this panel?

Revealing…. to put it mildly.
