It's rather difficult to say a document produced a couple thousand years before the start of the religion endorses that religion.
Not in today's perception of Christianity, it isn't.

I can't help that. I just said The Ten Commandments don't support or endorse any religion.

Hey, if they wanna represent, put a key part of the Khoran (sp) next to the ten commandments. In this case, more is better. Guidance is good.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Then add the Torah, Bhagavad Gita, Tipitaka, Book of Mormon, the holy book of Scientology, the governing doctrine of the Heaven's Gate Colony, and any other religion, legitimate or wacky, that wants representation.
Its completely impossible to make everyone happy, and its easier (read: safer, politically) to leave everything off. Failure due to misaction is much more damaging than failure due to nonaction, at least in political circles.

I dont seem to remember any Porsche, Ferrari or Jaguar dealer going out of business during the 8 years of the Clinton administration. Maybe they got exemptions from the onerous taxes that the commie democrats placed on us all during that time.......
Unless of course you are talking out of your ass and what you posted isn't true.

I think the point was that IF you had it your way. You don't completely. You liberals seem to think that if you have money, it should be taken away and given to people with less money. Thankfully, that's not that case.
OH WAIT A MINUTE!! Yes it is. If you make more money, alot of it gets taken away (because you can afford it, and therefore it should be taken away). If you make no money, THEY GIVE YOU MONEY. What kinda CRAP is that. Almost as good as reverse racism ("affirmative action").
Freakin communists..

Yes, our tax system is socialist in nature. It's getting more so every year. A flat tax would be ideal.
And Splice is right in saying there was a caveat to my statement. The Republican-controlled Congress and The Contract with America helped to fuel the economy of the mid-to-late 1990s.

Yes, because every liberal thinks that.
It's amazing how all Liberals are poor in one argument, yet in the next argument, all major media moguls are Liberals (doubt they're poor), all homosexuals (2nd highest concentration of wealth in the nation) are Liberals, all of Hollywood is Liberals (they're certainly not hurting for money), so on and so forth.
So which is it?
