Could a good argument be made, that some people do in fact deserve the death penalty?

I can't resist showing you my picture of our big "occupy" rally here
in Cheyenne. I'm the guy with the "Bail Out Wall Street" sign.
My sense of humor is "different".

Today it probably would be understood as humor, but back in September, 2008, it was reality. Unbelievable.

I'm glad to see your picture, Dave.

You were way way ahead of events.

I've been to Rawlins twice, visiting a friend.

We went to the old prison.

We went to the mountains, I think, the Snowy Range.

We tried to go to the Ferris Range, but, it seems to be surrounded by private property - apparently no access, which, to me is, or should be, illegal.

Every man, woman and child in the United States would have received $24,000. A family of four would have gotten $96,000. And that's without an income test.
Notice what Obama says about this - nothing.

Do you hear the crickets?

The official USA Military spend for 2010 was almost $700 billion, and the gross domestic product was around 15 trillion. Public debt is also around 15 trillion.
