It is likely that when these war criminals sold their soul to the devil, there must have been a long life clause in the contracts. They have caused so many young men and women to die, that it is a travesty of justice that they have lived so long.

I am sure there are hundreds of thousands to millions of people and their families that, thanks to our war in Iraq and the wars subsequent fallout in the Middle East, wish they weren't needlessly murdered.

Flat Tax: A Tax On People Who Believe a More Regressive Tax Structure is Fair For Everybody.

I would estimate that 30%, perhaps more, of the callers introduced this as the way to streamline the tax system and make it "fairer".

I'll bet not one of them realize it would disproportionately impact the income level of the sort of folks who call into the Washington Journal. It just seems so simple that they like it. Never mind that no proposal has ever been made to support it would bring in enough revenue for any government except one in the mold of the Norquistians.

because Max is hoping Rumsfeld would soon be seeing a "flat-line".
