U.S. Constitution Title: Thanksgiving – Time To Reflect On Our God And Our Freedom. I’ve been absolutely appalled listening to the insipidly ‘tame’ individuals willingly trading their freedom for the dubious safety afforded by the dysfunctional TSA and its entire apparatus. Fact: The TSA has neither detected nor prevented a single incidence of terrorism since its inception, despite the inconvenience and discomfiture of millions of traveling Americans. This government has come closer than any number of enemies to subjugating the American people. Our forefathers of only a few generations ago would be appalled at the reach of Washington into our personal affairs and our daily lives. They would not have tolerated it. Washington or no Washington, they would have stopped the nonsense dead in its tracks. Just to aid the liberally challenged out there… neither would they have recognized the so-called ‘separation of Church and State’. It simply didn’t exist. There is no such precept anywhere in the Constitution or in any of the Founding Documents. The only reason it has been permitted to exist at all is because of the weakness and timidity of self-described ‘men of the people’ who had not the courage of their supposed convictions. Had the proponents of the secularist removal of God from the body politic been confronted with determination and purpose, their arguments would have dissolved in the face of the Constitution itself. It is my firm belief that our so-called Republican leadership has been highly culpable in this regard. Much more willing to cave at the first onslaught of the secular left than to stand and fight on principle. That’s why the establishment of the GOP must undergo a reformation or be left behind. By abrogating their responsibility in this regard, they have left this and many other battles for us, the American Patriots, to fight. Today we join with family, relatives and friends to meet and give thanks to God almighty, the architect of our great nation. And when you do, say a prayer for the preservation of our country, our ideals, and the sacred covenant which freedom has forged between us and our Creator. No other country, no other people, have been as blessed as we. We are the light and the hope of the civilized world. Obama, Reid, Pelosi, Holder, Napolitano and their evil ideology will not stand in the face of the march of the American Patriot.

That your wife? ;} How would a TSA goon find out. You have no rights. Happy Holidays. 8D
#2. To: All (#1) Americans, I have some bad news for you: You have the worst quality of life in the developed world—by a wide margin. If you had any idea of how people really lived in Western Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and many parts of Asia, you’d be rioting in the streets calling for a better life. In fact, the average Australian or Singaporean taxi driver has a much better standard of living than the typical American white-collar worker.

BS I know Asia real well and they live in boxes. -----------------------------------------------------------
#4. To: mcgowanjm, All (#2) Americans, I have some bad news for you: You have the worst quality of life in the developed world—by a wide margin. Mcclown, how is the Gulf Coast evacuation proceeding? Has the death toll from Obama's oil disaster approached 1 million yet? You are so full of shit!
#5. To: mcgowanjm (#2) In fact, the average Australian or Singaporean taxi driver has a much better standard of living than the typical American white-collar worker. The Housing and Development Board (HDB) was set up as a statutory board to build homes for the people. About 85% of the population live in HDB flats. These flats are referred to by the total number of rooms, that is, a 3-bdrm condo would be equivalent to a 5-room flat (add a living room and a dining room to the 3 bedrooms). While it is illegal to rent out the entire HDB flat (remember they are built to house the masses, not allow them to enjoy rental revenue), renting out parts of it is allowed. So many Singaporeans rent out the entire flat while keeping one room locked up. The idea here is owners of these HDB flats will claim that that one locked room is where they are staying, and therefore, they are not renting out the entire flat. Should you choose to rent a HDB flat, you will find that the going rate starts from $800 for a 5-room flat in the outlying areas (eg Jurong, Pasir Ris) and about $1,100 for one closer to town. Downgrade to a 3-room (a puny 500 sq ft) or 4-room (800 sq ft), and you can find yourself paying as little as $ http://www.singaporeexpats.com/guides-for-expats/house-hunt-guide.htm -----------------------------------------------------------
#6. To: mcgowanjm (#2) In fact, the average Australian or Singaporean taxi driver has a much better standard of living than the typical American white-collar worker. As mentioned before, each individual taxi is a franchise for black and white/yellow cabs ect. Costs hundreds of thousands for a taxi license, so some people own one and some rich bastards own many. So it really depends how the owner runs his franchise.
My uncle drove cabs around north Brisbane on saturdays for extra cash and he would only earn on average $14 an hour for his 12 hour shift. So it wouldn't be worth it for some of the shit you have to deal with. These days we simply can't compete with the amount of foreign cab drivers. They're willing to work for next to nothing and usually shut most genuine Australians out of the job. They're fuckin' crazy, there was one cabbie who refused to let anyone put their luggage in the boot of his cab. Eventually the cab was searched and it turns out another driver was sleeping in the boot of the cab and they'd trade places every few hours in order to run the cab 24 hours a day. http://www.boostcruising.com/forums/lofiversion/index.php/t500730.html -----------------------------------------------------------
#7. To: mcgowanjm (#2) You have the worst quality of life in the developed world—by a wide margin. Yes, and it's getting worse every month.
#8. To: Fred Mertz (#7) Yes, and it's getting worse every month. The EU 9/10's of the time takes off for our Thanksgiving . Not today.
#9. To: WhiteSands (#6) Eventually the cab was searched and it turns out another driver was sleeping in the boot of the cab and they'd trade places every few hours in order to run the cab 24 hours a day. Now THAT is amazing info. And thanx for it. You learn something new everyday. 8D
#10. To: WhiteSands (#5) So many Singaporeans rent out the entire flat while keeping one room locked up. The idea here is owners of these HDB flats will claim that that one locked room is where they are staying, and therefore, they are not renting out the entire flat. And thanx again. ;}
