Here is something that is not a myth.

Typical of Democrats not to realize all the problems were caused by bad policies and programs started by their party long before Reagan.  Also typical to blame Republicans for not having solved all these problems in the “last 8 years”.  It scares the hell out of me that you hold up the G8 as a model for democracy, it’s called socialism.  If you think they are better off, you should go live there.  They don’t think so, because they are all tying to immigrate here.

How can anybody still believe green house gases cause man made global warming, when a single volcanic eruption has more effect than man since the beginning of time.  Although I do believe man caused many of the problems, but it is because of over population causing deforestation.  If there were more forest and less people, you wouldn’t have to worry about greenhouse gases, or lack of fossil fuels.

The Manhattan Project was for national security, and I agree that is what the government should focus on.  I also agree the US should be run like a business.  Which means you can’t spend money you don’t have.

The top twelve emigrant countries in 2006 were Mexico (173,753), People's Republic of China (87,345), Philippines (74,607), India (61,369), Cuba (45,614), Colombia (43,151), Dominican Republic (38,069), El Salvador (31,783), Vietnam (30,695), Jamaica (24,976), South Korea (24,386), Guatemala (24,146).

Get your facts straight, people who live in the G8 are not immigrating into the US with. China is in the statistics here, because of its size, and it lack of freedom for its people.

 The Manhattan Project was for national security, and I agree that is what the government should focus on. It is called 14 trillion dollar deficit caused by decades of Democratic overspending.

The Manhattan project was meant to ensure US technological superiority over Nazi Germany in order to win the war, with many spinoff projects.
Plus you do not seem to know what Socialism is (it is different than Communism, which was really bad for people living there). A healthy mixture between Socialism and Capitalism seems to be the success model which every prosperous country has.
I am not a Democrat or a Republican, but I do not appreciate people who make incorrect statements to voice their political agenda. Where the democrats actually doing the budget the last decade?
Again, this here is no place for people to vent. It is Saturday afternoon, I am sure there is a tea party for you going on somewhere. There you might find enough people who are not interested in facts.

I just read that Reagan never signed a balanced budget

What occured to me that might be interesting would be to identify and respond to some of the geo urban legends.
Hopefully we can keep the discussion non-politcal.
