http://www.irnnews.com/2011/01/05/pelosi-we-have-no-regrets-about-debt-piled-up-over-last-two-years/

(CNSNews.com) - When asked if she regrets not using the last two years with a Democrat controlled Congress to do more about the national debt, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she has “no regrets,” adding that “deficit reduction” has been a “high priority” for the Democratic Congress.

Speaker Pelosi was asked, “Do you have regrets that you didn’t use the 2 years that you had total Democratic control of government to focus more on jobs and especially the debt which we did not hear much at all from you?”

Pelosi, speaking on her last day as Speaker of the House, said, “No, we have no regrets. This House has over and over again sent to the Senate legislation for job creation, which the Republicans in the Senate held up. Deficit reduction has been a high priority for us, it is our mantra; pay as you go. Unfortunately, that will be changed now.”

She added, “This administration and this Congress inherited a near Depression. So, the initiatives that we took were positive for the American people. It’s not enough to save people from a Depression though – 9 and a half percent unemployment is intolerable and as long as we have that we have to continue to fight for job creation.”

According to official debt figures published by the U.S. Treasury, the Democrat controlled 111th Congress added $3.22 trillion ($3,220,103,625,307.29) to the national debt – more than the new debt accumulated by the first 100 Congresses combined.

The 110th Congress added the second largest amount to the national debt – $1.957 trillion while the 108th ($1.159 trillion in new debt) and 109th ($1.054 trillion in new debt), both controlled by Republicans, come in at third and fourth place among all U.S. Congresses in terms of accumulating debt.

There I just spoke for God...


I am the Lord your God:

You shall have no other Gods before me

You shall not worship idols

You shall not misuse the name of God

Remember the Sabbath, to keep it holy

Honor your father and mother

You shall not murder

You shall not commit adultery

You shall not steal

You shall not lie

You shall not covet

We are minding our own business.I don't see any Christians passing any laws demanding anyone do anything.Is any Christians suing Atheist for any reason?There is hundreds of lawsuits against Christians by Atheist every year.I don't see any Christians protesting Atheist.You have any idea what this country would look and sound like if the 224,457,000 Christians really were not minding their own business.If I were a Atheist walking around in America how long would I have to walk before I met a Christian passing judgment on me face to face?10 years,20 years,30 years?


Atheist don't put judgment of eternity on you??? Atheist tell us all the time including posts in this very topic that we are wrong,our God is dead,Jesus was fake,the bible is false,blah,blah.We are dumb,we are stupid,we are homophobic,we don't care,we are always causing problems.That sure does sound like a whole lot of judgment to me.Telling a Christian there is no God and when he or she dies they do not go anywhere including heaven is no different then what you claim we are doing.


Do I really need to start digging up the hundreds of negative slurs on Christians as mentioned above by Atheist of this very site to prove my point?


Mind telling me the differences between a Atheist saying there is no God and we are right and a Christian telling a Atheist there is a God and we are right?

While traveling through Nevada at night once I saw a ball of white light follow the highway from the summit of the mountains behind me to where my car was(a distance of about 20 miles)in about 45 seconds.I thought I was hallucinating so I woke up two other people in the car with me to make sure I wasn't dreaming.This ball of light was about 15 feet in diameter and only a few feet off the ground traveling about 20 feet behind my car at about 115 mph.It lit up the whole car then shot backwards to the summit of the mountain in less than a 5 seconds.It stayed stationary above this peak dimming and glowing in the same place for about 10 seconds.Then another ball of the same size slowly came down from the sky about a mile across from the other ball and was also glowing and dimming in-sink with the other one.Then they both slowly went up into the sky.


Despite myself and two others witnessing this and despite me nearly having a heart attack I still don't really believe in UFO's.You just never have any good video or clear photos.

Seriously how does Christianity effect your life in any way shape or form?Are you required to read the bible?Are you under any laws regarding the bible enforced by our courts,police,and military?

Christianity has ZERO effect in your life and will never do anything to change how you are living your life.Do what you want.Believe what you want.Nobody is going to stop you.


I also find it ironic Atheist can rant,rave,throw judgment,and bother Christians to no end and then say with a straight face that they are tired of hearing what Christians are saying about them.You ever hear the words "double standard"?How are you any better than any Christian when you are saying negative things about them on a daily basis?

You ever wonder why the Hindus,Buddhist,and other religions have no problem getting along with Christians and the Christians have no problems getting along with them?It's because the Hindus and Buddhist mind their own business and could care less about what the Christians believe.

Once Government run health care is mandatory you will live or die depending on if your state has the money to take care of you or not.We will have to go to Mexico or Canada for health care just like they come to us for it.

Muslims don't hate America .They love America!!!Especially in the Middle east! They especially love. our support for Israel and our large Christian population.

I was thinking about that also since I notice them more often than I used to.I don't think they are increasing I just think we are more aware of it now and notice it easier.As with any War the United states is shipping large amounts of refugees here for what ever reason.A good majority of the Philippine population living in the United states was brought here in the 1970's after Saigon fell to the Viet cong.

My point in that article is that those people haven't accomplished anything to disprove the bible.Christianity has always been growing.It has never slowed or reversed.Of course there is more Atheist today then there was 100 years ago but there is almost more Christians.


I'm not sure where you got your Atheist statistics from.But it would be interesting to know if they included countries like China,and North Korea where religion is more less banned.


I guess I have to laugh at you also.In 2,000 years Christianity went from 12 people to over 2 billion today.That's makes Atheism look pretty weak considering it has always been here.

2nd person denied Ariz. transplant coverage dies

PHOENIX – A second person denied transplant coverage by Arizona under a state budget cut has died, with this death "most likely" resulting from the coverage reduction, a hospital spokeswoman said Wednesday.

University Medical Center spokeswoman Jo Marie Gellerman said the patient died Dec. 28 at another medical facility after earlier being removed from UMC's list for a liver transplant needed because of hepatitis C.

Gellerman cited medical privacy requirements in declining to release any information about the patient.

Arizona reduced Medicaid coverage for transplants on Oct. 1 under cuts included to help close a shortfall in the state budget enacted last spring.

Officials at the Tucson, Ariz., hospital said the patient's death "most likely" resulted from Arizona's scaling back coverage for transplants, she said.

It's impossible to say with 100 percent certainty whether the patient would have died anyway, Gellerman said, "but we do know that his condition has gotten more severe since he was taken off the list."

The patient's worsening condition would have elevated his place on the list, she added.

A Phoenix-area man, Mark Price, died Nov. 28 of complications from preparation for a bone-marrow transplant that was to be privately funded. That funding was provided anonymously after The Associated Press and other media outlets reported that he was notified of two possible donors on Oct. 1, the same day the coverage was reduced.

The second person's death was reported by KOLD-TV in Tucson and the Arizona Guardian.

Democrats and other critics have slammed Republican Gov. Jan Brewer and the Republican-led Legislature for the transplant coverage reduction, and incoming Senate Minority Leader David Schapira called on them to restore the approximately $1.4 million of funding.

"Failure to restore this funding is a death sentence for people who have committed no crimes," he said.

Contacted for comment on the latest death, Brewer spokeswoman Paul Senseman said the governor's office didn't have confirmation that the person was enrolled in the state Medicaid program, the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System.

Brewer earlier Wednesday renewed her defense of the transplant coverage reduction but expressed a willingness to have it reviewed.

"It's something that probably needs to be discussed," Brewer said. "Eveybody is concerned about it, as I am. The bottom line is ... that was one of those areas that we could cut and we moved forward on that."

Brewer commented when asked by a reporter about a legislative committee chairman's intention to review the transplant cutbacks during a future budget hearing.

Brewer and Republican lawmakers want to drop approximately 250,000 people from AHCCCS enrollment because of the state's continuing budget troubles and the impending loss of federal stimulus funding that has propped up spending on the Medicaid program.

Arizona faces a projected $1.4 billion shortfall in its next state budget.

Brewer has said she will ask President Barack Obama's administration for a waiver permitting the enrollment reduction. The federal health care overhaul otherwise bars the enrollment reduction.

I find it ironic if your a pastor in a church and say homosexuals are bad you are arrested,sued by the ACLU and charged with hate crimes.Yet these idiots hold signs saying "God hates faggots" and say every hateful thing imaginable yet judge after judge lets them do what ever they want.


Could it be that these liberal judges know that these are Atheist just trying to slander and make Christianity look bad by being as offensive as possible and of course that is totally acceptable?Where is the ACLU?Probably attending service at Westbourgh.

It kind of amusing to see Atheist try in vain to disprove the bible.You have had people for thousands of years spending their entire lives wrapped up in the bible trying to find some sort of error to show the world that it is false.

I can't even begin to imagine the amount of books written related to Christianity and how many new books ever year are published every year.How many books are published every year trying to disprove the bible?One,three?


I think if I was a Atheist I wouldn't even bother trying to tackle Christianity.Kings,scientist,professors,and everyone else you can think of didn't make the least bit of difference in thousands of years of trying.You really think you are going to do any better?Try outsmarting these guys.

Sigmund Freud
(1856-1939)

Freud was raised in a world steeped in religious belief. His home was a small town (Freiberg, Morovia) where — like so many towns in the nineteenth century in Eastern Europe — a community of Jews lived among a majority of Catholics. His interpretation of God was based on the Bible being written by man, not as we know, dictated by God.
Sigmund died of cancer of the jaw, heart failure, and an overdose of morphine administered by his doctor (assisted suicide)


Karl Marx
(1818-1883)


Marx believed that religion could only be abolished when man finally realized that he had control over the world, and that man would have to take complete control of the economy of the world. This was the foundation of Communism. And the ultimate goal of economic control (Communism), was the abolition of religious belief. Karl knew that all religion had to go, because he knew that Christianity, and Judaism both instilled the rights of private ownership, and self-protection, and individualism, which were completely contrary to Communism.
Carl died never getting to see just what damnable use his ideas were put to by the likes of Lenin, Stalin and Mao! Carl would be "proud" of the almost 100 million deaths directly resulting from his rejection of God's laws!


Diocletian
A.D. 303


The emperor Diocletian began one of the most terrible persecutions of Christianity in history. One target of his violence was the Bible itself. He ordered that every copy of the Bible be confiscated and burned. Only 25 years later, Constantine (the very next emperor of Rome) ordered that 50 copies of the Scriptures be prepared and paid for by the Roman Government.

In spite of Diocletian's efforts, there were plenty of Bibles around to make more copies and see the world completely turned upside-down!


Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900)


"God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we, murderers of all murderers, console ourselves? That which was the holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet possessed has bled to death under our knives. Who will wipe this blood off us? With what water could we purify ourselves? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent? Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must we not ourselves become gods simply to be worthy of it?"
Nietzsche died insane, in an asylum, of syphilis — signing his last letters “the Crucified One.” He was adored by the Nazis as their semi-official philosopher.



François Marie Arouet Voltaire
(1694-1778)


Voltaire boasted that within one hundred years of his time the Bible would be non-existent, replaced by his own work.
The Christian physician who attended Voltaire during his last illness said, "When I compare the death of a righteous man, which is like the close of a beautiful day, with that of Voltaire, I see the difference between bright, serene weather and a black thunderstorm. It was my lot that this man should die under my hands. Often did I tell him the truth. ’Yes, my friend,’ he would often say to me, ’you are the only one who has given me good advice. Had I but followed it I would not be in the horrible condition in which I now am. I have swallowed nothing but smoke. I have intoxicated myself with the incense that turned my head. You can do nothing for me. Send me a mad doctor! Have compassion on me-I am mad!’ The physician goes on to say: "I cannot think of it without shuddering. As soon as he saw that all the means he had employed to increase his strength had just the opposite effect, death was constantly before his eyes. From this moment, madness took possession of his soul. He expired under the torments of the furies." At another time his doctor quoted Voltaire as saying: "I am abandoned by God and man! I will give you half of what I am worth if you will give me six months’ life. Then I shall go to hell; and you will go with me. O Christ! O Jesus Christ!"
Fifty years after his death, the Geneva Bible Society bought the house and printing press of Voltaire and printed stacks of Bibles in his living room! Voltaire has become an historical footnote while the Bible continues to increase in every part of the world.

I used to carry a large chain saw in the trunk of my car and now and then I would get some idiot who was giving me a hard time.So I would just open the trunk and start the chain saw and watch him run like his pants were on fire.

If Westboro was protesting a funeral of one of my family members there would either be a mass or people running for their lives or body parts laying everywhere.

I wouldn't say teens raised by gay parents are just as happy as straight parents considering the high suicide rate of gay teens.I don't care what website you use for statistics you will find that gays commit suicide more than any other straight teenagers.I think the majority of teen suicides either straight or gay nearly always ends up with family problems being the root cause for their misery.




http://www.livescience.com/culture/gay-teen-suicide-epidemic-101008.html

For example, Ciara Thomas, a writer for the website HealthyPlace.com ("America's Mental Health Channel") states that, "For a number of years, researchers have known that one-third of all teenagers who commit suicide are gay. In one sense, this statistic is incredibly shocking...This means that they are 300 percent more likely to kill themselves than heterosexual youth."

Polls show America is in decline?Over 4 years with a Democratic majority running this country I can see why they feel that way.

That was a pretty weak rebuttal.You like to speak of assumptions,hypothetical s,and probabilities.This is not what we are talking about here.What we are talking about here is facts and reality.This is the reality....


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_the_United_States

Main religious preferences of Americans

Christianity: (76%[4] to 82.3%[12])
Unaffiliated, including atheist or agnostic (11.6%[12] to 15% [4])
Judaism (1.2%[4] to 2.2%[12])
Islam (0.6%[12][4][6][5] to 1.6%[citation needed])
Buddhism (0.5%[4] to 0.9%[13])
Hinduism (0.4%)
Other (1.4%)


I totally understand that none of the Christians are going to vote the same way every time.But I also understand that they all believe in the same teachings in various degrees.You and others keep claiming it is always the Christians who are the bad people,who are degrading people,and who are treating people bad.

But yet as history as shown,Christians could determine the outcome of ever voting issue right or wrong.It was Christian voters who passed laws in regards to hate crimes,civil marriages with homosexuals,benefits to homosexuals and other issues.No other group(Atheist,Islam,Buddhism,etc)had the power to change the outcome regardless of what they voted on.


So to say "it is the Christians that are the problem" is total and complete BS.Right or wrong on their decisions on these issues you simply can not deny that.If we have more votes on gay marriage(which we will)and if gay marriage passes then you will simply have to accept the fact that it was Christian voters who made that happen.You can act stupid,lie about numbers,facts,and statistics but that doesn't make it fact.I do not support homosexual marriage in any way and will always vote against it,and I think it is wrong for any Christians to be supporting it and often wonder why they are voting for it.


That time old,weak,boring,idiotic,statement that the polls are wrong because Christians really don't know if they are Christians and are just saying it because they don't know any better is just dumb.If people are claiming to be Christians there is a reason for it.Furthermore you can look at the polls every year for the last 100 years and see a pattern.Even if the polls are wrong you would still need at least 35% of the population to suddenly become Atheist just to break even with the Christians.


I didn't think you would respond to my list of Republican civil rights issues or did I think you would bother re-posting them again.I know the truth hurts like salt in a open wound and of course I know you would deny them.That still doesn't change the facts or the history of this country.Both of which you seem to have a problem accepting.I know it is facts you can deny it of course but since you want a few websites here you go.I am not going to do all of them because you are just going to deny it anyways.




http://ourwhitehouse.org/prespgs/ddeisenhower.html


Civil rights became a critical concern during Eisenhower’s administration. In 1954 the Supreme Court ruled that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional, but the decision was not universally accepted. The people of the South resisted, and racial tensions mounted. In 1957 the governor of Arkansas ordered National Guard troops to prevent a group of African-American students from enrolling at an all-white high school in Little Rock. Eisenhower was forced to send federal troops to escort the new students to school. Eisenhower also proposed and signed the Civil Rights Act of 1957, which was intended to guarantee the voting rights of all African Americans. This was the first civil rights legislation to pass since Reconstruction. It was followed by the Civil Rights Act of 1960, which was an attempt to further strengthen voting rights by mandating federal inspection of local voter registration polls.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_De_Priest


During his three consecutive terms (1929–1935) as the only black representative in Congress, De Priest introduced several anti-discrimination bills. His 1933 amendment barring discrimination in the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was passed by the Senate and signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

You don't have the slightest idea what you are talking about.Courts including the Supreme court do not have the power to make laws.It is the voters of this country who make laws and to a smaller extent those people in Congress who make laws.Courts only enforce laws written by the people and the Supreme court mainly deals with Constitutional laws.


All you have to do is simple math to know that America has always been a Christian dominated country with a huge majority typically at least 80%.In the earlier years people who considered themselves Christians was over 90%.It is also a well established fact that those who our in our Congress are nearly all Christian and Atheist congress people are a rarity.

With that said if the Christians wanted what ever laws passed they have all the power to pass them regardless if every Atheist,or other religious person other than Christian votes against them.It makes no difference at all what the Atheist do concerning voting issues.They simply do not have the numbers.So saying it was Atheist,or Muslims,or Buddhists that gave the homosexuals the freedoms they have in America today is nothing but a lie.It has been and always will be the Christians who vote on laws to determine the outcome.


Your nonsense that Christians vote against gay marriage is nothing but a lie.You can check the statistics for yourself and see that gay marriage passing or failing is nearly almost 50/50.The recent ban in same sex marriage in California was only lost by around 6%.As I said before check your math.If at least 80% of this country considers themselves Christians then at best you would have only 20% of the votes if everyone non Christian voted no or yes on a issue including gay marriage.Christians should not be supporting homosexuals but if you check the numbers they are supporting them.


Finally if you check the voting records on human rights in this country you will once again see that the God honoring,God serving,and God fearing Christian REPUBLICANS were the ones responsible for the majority of the Civil rights in this country.Not the Democrats who could care less about civil rights.

Dragoness seriously stop replying to my posts because 98% of what you say is never backed up by any facts and is almost always BS.I rarely reply to yours and there is no reason to reply to mine since I could care less about your lies.



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_China


The People's Republic of China was established October 1, 1949. Its government is officially atheist, having viewed religion as emblematic of feudalism and foreign colonialism. Religious belief or practice was banned because it was regarded as backward and superstitious by some of the communist leaders, from Vladimir Lenin to Mao Zedong, who had been critical of religious institutions.[29] Houses of worship, including pagodas, temples, mosques, and churches, were converted into non-religious buildings for secular use during its early years. The Cultural Revolution led to a policy of elimination of religions; a massive number of places of worship were destroyed.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_atheism#Asia


People's Republic of China, 59% of the population claim to be non-religious[46] However, this percentage may be significantly greater (up to 80%) or smaller (down to 30%) in reality, because some Chinese define religion differently.

Your so wrong on that statement.What countries do homosexuals have the most rights or freedoms?Atheist dominated countries or Christian dominated countries?You whine and complain about the treatment of homosexuals by Christians yet you totally ignore the fact that Christians have always held a huge majority in this country and on voting issues.It wouldn't matter if every Atheist and homosexual voted yes or no on a issue in this country.The fact is Christians dominate voting issues and decide how they are going to be treated.


Even though Christians should not be supporting homosexual issues they are.Because as said earlier if you want to live a open homosexual life with the least amount of problems you go to Christian dominated countries.

Atheist countries do not tolerate it,Muslim countries will kill you,Buddhist don't accept or tolerate it,not sure about Hinduism.

Only a matter of time before the bombs start dropping on Iran.Can't say I am going to feel the least bit sorry for them either.
