Keep your religious superstitions to yourself and off public land, it’s that simple. When I go to the mall or to a park I don’t want religious fairy tale symbols obstructing my view as you Jesus-freaks, or Muslim-freaks, or whatever religion-freaks try to force your beliefs on me… trust me, I know where the church or Mosque or Synagogue is located if I decide I need a crutch to go through life with.

As for our war heroes; we can honor the dead with nonreligious memorials on public property.

It's a monument, placed in 1913. Are you suggesting that all monuments such as this one be removed? Does the Government have the Constitutional Right to interfere with history? Does the monument, in any way, "force a belief" on you? If so, explain how that works?

The majority of citizens do NOT want the USA to start anymore wars. They are NOT in favor of interference, aid and war for ANY country.

Americans are not gung-ho on Israel. That's a FALLACY. Support for Israel has declined, not risen. We're tired of that same old story and loss of Americans fighting for them in the Middle East.

Obama and Hillary are agitating for a war in Syria. Then expect Yemen, Egypt, Somolia and Libya.

More American lives to be lost, and money, which should be used HERE in America for OUR citizens, is being funneled to the Middle East to support the 'rebels'-whoever the hell they are!-

This country is a mess.

So now the false Marine is saying we should take down all the crosses, Star of David, and other religious grave markers at Arlington National Cemetary??

You pretend to be a Marine, and worship the constitution stomping prez and you don't need a crutch? You are pathetic.

I suggest you stay out of Arlington National Cemetery where many of our veterans are interred.

Seems just the opposite. You want a Christian exception for crosses and nativities. Those things belong in churches or on church property and churches along with all other religious institutions should pay taxes, at least property taxes. Do you want to pay for the roads, street lights, and water to your local mosque?

The money given to the churches from it's members has already been taxed. You loons can however double down on your taxes paid.........but none of you including billionaire Buffet ever do........you take every exemption and then some.

WASHINGTON (Reuters)- President Barack Obama will forecast a U.S. unemployment rate averaging 8.9 percent in 2012 in his annual budget on Monday - but before the document was even released a top aide called the projection "stale" and said it should be lower. More fuzzy math from the master of flip floping.

The Congressional Budget Office though is projecting only a 1% growth for 2012.

But hey, its an election year, and the loons will believe anything.

Wrong.

I submit that when you give churches money, the churches are your employees or independent contractors.

As an employee or independent contractor, the churches should pay income taxes, like EVERYONE ELSE.

Besides, what does that have to do with churches not paying real estate taxes on valuable land?

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Scorpio

You're in the mood to spend money on a favourite hobby or pastime today, so take care if you're supposed to making every penny count at the moment. The temptation to treat yourself to something that you'll undoubtedly enjoy will be too strong to resist, and the trouble is that you might not restrict yourself to just one item either. It looks like being an extravagant day!
