Q. Can clubs like united or liverpool achieve financial stability without winning trophies?

for example: let's say they don't buy any expensive players and are able to stay in the top flight but don't win any trophies for the next 5 years. would that be enough to pay the debts and basically restart? arsenal hasn't won a thing in almost a decade but they've been able to stay in cl and in title races while not spending tons of money. if arsenal can do it than why can't united & liverpool? edit: then*

Q. If obamanites don't want a woman president, why do they want a man who spends money like a woman on a shopping

spree? obama is racing a bill through the senate to approve a global tax of $845 billion ("...force the u.s. to pay 0.7 percent of gnp in increased foreign aid spending would add $65 billion a year to what the u.s. already spends.") to give to the united nations to send us taxpayer dollars to support regimes in kenya, russia, zimbabwe, chile, plus their favorite the un and its gluttons. the additional spending would cost $750 for every man woman and child in the us and not a penny of it would benefit a us citizen. …all this when we are in a budget deficit and there is a pending recession and people in the u.s. are struggling to survive with unemployment and the same wages they made 10 years ago (if they have a job).. http://www.aim.org/aim-column/obamas-global-tax-proposal-up-for-senate-vote/ obama has paid out $694,000 to superdelegates. hillary has paid out $195,000 to superdelegates. http://www.boston.com/news/politics/politicalintelligence/2008/02/superdelegates.html why is it obama says we now have to help mexico develop its own economy with our tax dollars is that fair? “i will seek enforceable labor and environment standards – not unenforceable side agreements that have done little to curb nafta's failures. to reduce illegal immigration, we also have to help mexico develop its own economy, so that more mexicans can live their dreams south of the border. that's why i'll increase foreign assistance, including expanded micro-financing for businesses in mexico.” http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/opinion/viewpoints/stories/dn-obama_20edi.art.state.edition1.464da8e.html

Q. What do you think of more mexico meddling mexican consulate concerned about arrests in irving?

more than 300 illegal immigrants are being deported every month from irving because of the city’s increased scrutiny of the immigration status of people arrested, according to the city’s mayor. the mexican consul general has expressed concern after members of his staff found that half of all the mexicans they interviewed in an immigration jail last saturday were arrested in irving. he said he suspects racial profiling. but irving officials said that last saturday’s arrests were part of an effort to target apartment complexes with high crime rates, not illegal immigrants. the deportations came from the jail staff’s efforts to identify people who should be referred to federal immigration officials. dispute over arrests residents at the willows apartments, where arrests have been made, said people were grilling food, sitting outside and talking in the apartments’ common area when police approached from different directions about 8 p.m. a few residents were drinking alcohol, they said. jose, 31, from mexico, said he dashed across the street. jose carlos, 26, from el salvador, said he ran into his apartment and slammed the door shut, like many other people did, and refused to open it despite banging by police. “if we opened the door, they would have taken us away,” he said. patricia, 39, of mexico said police asked for immigration papers. she said they arrested enough people to fill two police vans. the residents asked that their last names not be used because they are in the united states illegally. mayor herbert gears disputed some of the residents’ comments. “if somebody’s arrested, it is because they have committed an arrestable offense,” gears said. “our police officers do not check for papers or documentation of citizenship.” he said jail officials, not police officers on the streets, inquire about arrested people’s immigration status. they then notify immigration and customs enforcement about people suspected of being in the u.s. illegally. ice spokesman carl rusnok said irving has been particularly diligent. “they do have a very cooperative, working relationship with ice,” rusnok said. “irving is especially proactive in that regard.” profiling concerns mexican consul general enrique hubbard urrea said he wants to talk with irving officials to find out what happened. gears said he would meet if asked. consulates have the right to meet with their citizens if they are detained. the mexican consulate sometimes uses the meetings to identify increased arrests from a particular area and raise concerns about racial profiling. “they were looking for places where the hispanics live, so this is a form of racial profiling from our point of view, and we are really worried about it,” hubbard said. “what we are questioning is the police spending all this time, all this effort and all this money prosecuting people who are not criminals.” police spokesman david tull said people can avoid scrutiny about their immigration status by staying out of trouble. “it just upsets me that people say we’re out there targeting a particular race,” tull said. “we’re out there targeting the disorder.”

Q. Do you feel safer being part of the master race?

as fellow american's, we spend far more per person than any other country on creating scary killer war machinery. this makes us appear superior to others who may wish to stop us from doing exactly what we want. for example, we can attack and bully other nations without bothering to getting approval from the united nations not having to worry about stupid rules that don't work in our favor. thus reconfirming our superiority and making the un appear pointless and weak. it may not appear morally justifiable to others but let's face it; there are simply not enough resources to go round. as we are the master race we are entitled [by force through our superior firepower] to control access to the lions share of the worlds finite resources, even if they happen to belong to another country and especially if they interfere with our oil addiction. the same kind of superior forcefulness we demonstrated with the native americans when it was their place to start with or when we needlessly deployed a nuclear weapon over civilians in japan even though the war was over. after all other people don't change so why should we? rather than have to deal with understanding boring things like shame, morals, destruction of the planet, behaving like animals with our illegal wars or self-hating, we can carry on regardless, enjoying our hedonistic lifestyles of vast over-consumption, instant gratification via unnecessary gadgets that support our workaholic lifestyles and mindless shopaholism to maximize what little play time we have, maintaining fantastic pollution levels in our 5 litre 'gas guzzlers' that absolutely must look better than our neighbours. we have removed the opportunity for our minds to worry about our ever rising mountain of foreign debt we owe to the world: way beyond our current existing world record position as 'the poorest nation on earth'. still if we can't pay off our debts and people start to moan we can just have a war with them and they'll soon forgive us and maybe lend us some more money. watch out venezuela you're nearby, you have loads of oil, and you're next. all we got to do is convince the rest of the world you're on the 'axis of evil'. jealous, me? very! rather be a viking though.

Q. Obama's global poverty act of giving eight hundred and forty-five billion dollars to other nations logical..?

when our economy is in need of aid? shouldn't we be spending this money on improving america first? the nice-sounding bill called the "global poverty act," sponsored by democratic presidential candidate and senator barack obama, is up for a senate vote on thursday and could result in the imposition of a global tax on the united states. the bill, which has the support of many liberal religious groups, makes levels of u.s. foreign aid spending subservient to the dictates of the united nations. senator joe biden, chairman of the senate foreign relations committee, has not endorsed either senator barack obama or hillary clinton in the presidential race. but on thursday, february 14, he is trying to rush obama's "global poverty act" (s.2433) through his committee. the legislation would commit the u.s. to spending 0.7 percent of gross national product on foreign aid, which amounts to a phenomenal 13-year total of $845 billion over and above what the u.s. already spends. http://www.aim.org/aim-column/obamas-global-tax-proposal-up-for-senate-vote/

Q. Okay bush supporters tell me what bush has done right?

we are fighting wars we cannot afford and borrow so much money from china that they could destroy the united states just by selling off their us holdings. the economy is doing great if your apart of the ruling class but the rest of us peasants suffer. establishing democracy in the middle east has only bred terrorists and supporters of terrorism to power. we are in a new nuclear arms race. the united states has no political capital to spend to fight those we should have fought from the beginning and mr. homland security has yet to shut down the border to mexico. spain fired their president and got out of iraq and have not been attacked since march 11th 2004. england has not and they have become a hub for terrorists. france, germany, the netherlands still terror free. i have heard you defend his moral character (despite he cheated to get into office) but his policies have failed and the world is going to hell in a hand basket. so what exactly makes him so great.
