I don't think Ted is jumping your s*** mx510, he is just very passionate about what he believes in and will not settle for anything less. I agree with him in regards to everyone writing their politicians about what they agree and disagree with. If we all did it, I bet things would be much different. What he gets tired of is everyone complaining and not taking action. It is one thing to say you don't like something, it is something entirely different to do something about it.

Although, I would like to know what his blood pressure is when he is typing on the board, LOL! Wink

This will make it easier for all that have an opinion but never get around to telling people who can make it happen. Here are email and phone numbers for our Most High Senators. Call them and tell em what you think. They won't talk to you, of course, but you can leave a msg and they tally the number of people who say Yea or Nay to issues. Makes a difference. (Except for Patty Murray - she shows up and asks Lib leadership which box to check and thats it.) But its still important to tell her that her ideas are idiotic. Go fer it!

NO! AARON! NO!
Unions were not at the heart of our success after world war II

Ted this one's for you (and DON'T call me "kenny"! - grins)

Point: “America imported very very little manufactured goods..”

Counter Point: Might wanna check out what was going on just prior to WWII with regard to manufactured goods and Japan. (me I had Pop a WWII Vet living it back then)


Point: “We import shit..”

Counter Point: Just like we did from Japan pre Toyota and Deming days (look'em up) Edward Deming.


Point: “Give aggressive tax breaks to businesses. Not all businesses! Only businesses that manufacture their product in the United States of America..”

Counter: None


Point: “There is no way a conservative or Liberal can argue this..”

Counter Point: I agree with ya cept I take tend it take it to extremes to make a point. I say we stop all labor, stop all finance, stop all social services, stop all agriculture as in farming. Stop it all and OUTSOURCE the aforementioned everything to anybody that'll bid it lowest. Lowest is good right ...cept when it's YOU at the bottom making the bid. Dudes signed a contract right! and if so then in the end the only thing that matters most is the ink on the paper.

So how much does ink $cost these days. Can you say Trillions like Thousands-of-Billions, like Thousands-of-Thousands-of-Millions like Thousands-of-Thousands-of-Thousands-of-Thousands-of-Hundreds. When does it freak'n END!

When I was a kid “trill”ions was only true in comic books.

We need a Super Hero!

P.S. 747Heavy I got their numbers, they mine.

747, I've called and spoken with Cantwell, Murray, and Rick Larson. Ive met the Governor, the Mayor (Seattle) and countless state Senators and Reps. Ive met and conversed with my state Reps McCoy and Sells, along with my Senator Jean Berkey. I actually even know what my district is. (I'm guessing most on here dont even vote let alone know anything about where they reside or who their elected officials are) I have access to these folks not because I am some corrupt "union boss" or a flaming right wing commie fascist like Ted calls me. I have access because I take the initiative to access these people. That is their job. Most like to talk the talk when it comes to debating or bitching about politics, but few walk the walk.

See ya at the track. Smile

Aaron, you are a great American. Thanks for taking on the responsibility that our founding fathers knew that would be necessary to preserve our freedom. Knowledge of the issues, speaking your mind and taking action.

See you out there. Where? Thinking about it hard tonite. Maybe Toes Sat . . . ?

I don't know about a great American, maybe a master debater..... LOL.

I love Toes, and I would go but I have a 4 year olds basket ball game first thing in the AM.

My boy and I will be headed to Jokewood as soon as we are done.

I think Brendan is going to be racing the PRO race in Horn in a few weeks, then on to Toes for Huckfest Sunday morning though. We are going to stay on this side of the mountains for a couple of weeks, then make the loop at the end of the month.

What scares me is Ted had aneurysms popping out of his head when Dubya and a Republican congress were in control! What is 09 and beyond going to hold for Ted??? Hold it together buddy, I plan on colleting that Ruth's Chris steak and Brew.
Plus, I don't want to retire from the MXPPA for the Ted Devol memorial race.

I thought this was a mx message board? Big Grin I am still in disbelief on this whole mini bike thing. I honestly cant believe that they are going to force dealers and manufacturers from selling kids bikes. Absolutely retarded! Last I checked I had never heard of anyone getting lead poisoning from mx.

mx510 .. Dude I was thinking about this very thing while listening to NPR (National Public Radio) on the way to werk this morning. Kids licking a gas tank that happened to have Lead in the paint.

Is it MX or is is PolitCS. I'm all for supporting my fellow MXer's but I truly gotta wonder about my tree-hugger dudes sport'n ten's of childs and claiming gas guselers (cars) are the eveil empire. Dude...I'm pay'n fer yer kids College with my Taxes. Green house gasses and me. I'm one he many. Who's contributing more?

Who is more a tree-huggy me as one or he as many?

P.S. I am trying to get my bike population down to a 1:1 ratio.

Maybe that whole China birth rate control thing can help me make the Planet greener. Or not.

I heard that they have put this lead law off for one year. The tree huggers have talking to our faces with lawsuits and then slamming us with the lead law as a flank attack.

The eco's have the hollywood types with all the money

Aaron I never called you a flaming anything. Maybe a bloody something, but certainly not a flaming something.

P.S. Aaron what was the bet? You never specified the bet.

P.P.S. How in the world does a 4 year old play basket ball? That has got to be entertaining!

I was thinking that at the rate Mr. O's approval rate is dropping in just a few weeks, Ruth Chris will be on the MXPPA!!!

You can write that off,... right?

However, I must say that the hole the "left" is putting us in is not going to be worth a steak...

Dude I like ya, have known ya for what - a hundred years - but dude who's gonna do the planting of seed, the tilling of the soil and who's gonna harvest the crop because that's where yer taking us with your NOBODY PAYS TAXES thing.

We pay for our roads, bridges, electricity, water, sewer, fire-fighters and police and countless more with tax. We pay for the defense of our Nation, and lately (past few years) we've been paying for it in more than $Dollars. So what would happen if we all decided to stop paying for those things. HuH? Who's gonna $buy your products when they can't even be delivered. Remember - no roads cause we didn't pay, guess what, for'em.

So before you answer this I'd ask only this. There is a Maxima-Minima when it comes to paying taxes so exactly $what's the range. Max-Min. No approximations, no guesses, no hums and butts no just-abouts. I wanna know exactly how $much you'd be willing to sacrifice on behalf of your fellow human being. How much for the social good would you be willing to give. Would you be willing to give as much as much as our Soldiers. Would you give-till-it-hurts?

DON'T ANSWER...I'M JUST VENTING!
