In the New York Times story today that details information on the Stuxnet computer worm that ended up destroying 984 Iranian unranium centrifuges, an interesting “item” pops out. Not immediately, not in the New York Times. But about half way through the story we find out that President Bush got the Stuxnet started in 2008 with Israel. He even managed to get the cooperation of Germany, Britain and the Saudis. Not bad for someone the world supposedly hated. Then, near the end of the piece, we find out that we got a lot of material from Libya after it gave up its nuclear program in late 2003. Who was president then? And, a shipment of their machines was sent to our own Oak Ridge laboratory for study. In 2004 the CIA convened a group of nuclear experts who reccommended a secret test place be devised to work on the project. Evidently, that is what Isreal finally and successfully did. In 2006, you’ll recall, the New York Times brazenly published the National Security Estimate. It manipulated information from secret sources that undermined GWB’s Iran policy by denying their capabilities. Fortunately for the world we have gained some time to stop Iran further, thanks to President Bush’s efforts.

Thank you for starting two wars that have bankrupted this country and for allowing your bankster friends to loot what was left.

You're such an ignorant poster, skidmark! You fookin lib morons own it! http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110115/ap_on_re_us/us_debt_wars Record $14 trillion-plus debt weighs on Congress By TOM RAUM, Associated Press Tom Raum, Associated Press – Sat Jan 15, 6:15 pm ET WASHINGTON – The United States just passed a dubious milestone: Government debt surged to an all-time high, topping $14 trillion — $45,300 for each and everyone in the country.

Only if the debt had been paid off when Obama took office.

The democrat congress didn't do that and the democrat congress and compliant Obama administration have increased it beyond belief!
No doubt the Republican House will fix all that.

You leftists would cry like mashed cats if your DOE, welfare and entitlement programs were eliminated.
There you go again with those unhelpful stereotypes. The budget for the DOE increased 69.6% from 2002 to 2004 when Republicans ruled the House, Senate and Bush was president.

So then you wouldn't object to the DOE being eliminated now, would you?
I don't know, I'd have to do some research and think about it. What specific benefits do you see from eliminating the department? Do you see any negatives? Is this something you've thought about or a talking point?

Pure neoconservative, globalist interventionism in a pipedream quest to 'make the world safe for democracy'.
Your tag line is stupid.
We would see an immediate $28.4 billion savings.
Your tag line is stupid.
We could cut $250 billion (less than half) from the DOD budget and still spend more than any other country does on their military.

I'll let Thomas Jefferson know the next time I see him.

We should make drastic cuts to the DOD.
Your tag line is stupid.
I'll let Thomas Jefferson know the next time I see him. It's a joke. Evidently not a very good one. :o) All the tag lines made the forum hard to read, until I figured out how to filter them. I don't even see mine now.
Your tag line is stupid.
Do you see any negatives? Is this something you've thought about Tax savings and increased local control of school districts. I see nothing but positives for eliminating another money wasting bureaucracy. Yes. I find the DOE to be totally useless.

Your tag line is stupid.
The DOE has been around in one form or another for 130 years - was local control of schools an issue way back then?

Maybe it would be a good idea to find out all they do before making that judgment.

Totally irrelevant. It had neither the clout, control or financing for most of those years. So what is your point?
I see the results of "what they do" on a daily basis! List 5 things you believe the DOE does that are both necessary, useful and can't be done by state associations and local school districts.
BWHAHAHAHAHAHA It's either the Hague &/or Karma. Like Dr K and Tzipi Livni have to consult their lawyers before flying overseas. Tunisia wasn't meant to happen. cheney/SS/NORAD did 9-11. bush43 was simply the idiotinplace. "That was some bad pilot heh heh heh" 8D heh heh heh.
Most of what you see on a daily basis is the result of state and local control of education. Before George W. and his "No Child Left Behind Act", the department had very little to do with what went on in schools at the local level beyond enforcing civil rights and privacy laws. It is also interesting to note that although eliminating the department has been a GOP talking point since 1980, nothing was done to that end during the 6 years of Republican rule in Washington; in fact, Republicans expanded the ED's reach into local schools. (Perhaps it is useful to have a federal whipping-boy to pin local failures on?)
