Even Greenspan said they were conservative in a democratic system. He said he enjoyed his presidency the best.

Does that mean we all are responsible for the killing of our troops since we give our tax dollars for their murder?

IF you want to declare this an "illegal" war, which is the premise of FeelFree, you cannot release yourself from any responsibility. So, stop paying taxes and go to jail for you cause if you really believe it.

The government is not perfect, but we have soldiers fighting two wars that need your support not your complaint.

You expect us to abandon our morals and principles to support a military action we find totally immoral and counterproductive to the health and well-being of the US? Cowboy up yourself, slick, and accept that not everyone is willing to toss aside their principles and values to support every single war the US decides to wage.

So, you must not pay any taxes. Where do you think the funding is coming from? YOU have declared this as an illegal war and if you pay taxes, you are responsible as well

This is the same reason Alqaeda uses to justify killing US Civilians. I don''''t agree with that though. Majority of Americans pay tax to the government without any intention of killing people. Rightnow, Bush is giving our TAX DOLLARS in the name of REBUILDING IRAQ and US WEAPONS in the name of ARMING IRAQI SECURITY FORCES to an IRANIAN-BASED ISLAMIC RADICAL "MALIKI" for the killing of our troops in Iraq.

My conscience is clear, for I have never supported anyone who is complicit in the illegal war, nor have I provided any funding for it.

Then you must be Mr. Cheney who moved Halliburton Head office and CEO to Dubai, United Arab Emirates ( A Tax free and Duty free country) in order to avoid paying tax to the government.

Yeah, Binny. This is Dubya. I need another favor. I gotta ask for another 200 billion from the dopes...I mean the American taxpayers for my wars. It''''s gonna be a tough sell. I know the Dems will roll over again, but the public is getting mighty angry and fed up. Hows about you make one a those tapes for me to ease some of the pressure? I know I ask this a lot when things get rough, but I could really use your help again. Thanks."

dmhphils,

Re: "YOU have declared this as an illegal war and if you pay taxes, you are responsible as well."

I DO pay taxes, but I have not payed a dime of the costs of the illegal war, and I encourage others to do the same. We have no obligation to fund a criminal activity, but we do have an obligation to put a stop to it.

Re: "If you are an American, you should not be a "fair-weather" friend. You may not agree with this war, but your loyalty is to the country."

My loyalty is to the U.S. Constitution, and I have taken a sworn oath to that effect. I have no loyalty to the terrorists that have illegitimately seized power.

Re: "The government is not perfect, but we have soldiers fighting two wars that need your support not your complaint."

I support their refusal to participate in these disgraceful, self-defeating, and criminal efforts, and I support their return, so that they can assist us in rounding up the criminals and cowards who are responsible for sending them there in the first place, and bringing them before a judge to answer for their crimes.

Very convenient.

Every time Bush asks for money, this genie miraculously appears.

9/11 was the best thing that happened to Bush. He was dead in the polls before it happened.

Same thing happened in 04, he was losing to Kerry and then Bin Laden magically appeared.

So those 9/11 conspiracy wackos may not be so far from the truth.

All pretty scary stuff but if you consider how the neocons have let nothing get in the way of their agenda, outing CIA agents, rigging elections, you know they are perfectly capable of committing such a heinous crime as 9/11.
