Thought I'd share this while the govt has shut down ... What and who are we choosing as our elected representatives? I think anyone going on the ballot should take a "US Nationalism Test" just like every immigrant on the path to US Citizenship takes a "US Citizenship Test". The needs of a few constituents and a common ideological ground should now have the power to shut down the entire US govt.

Wonder what other world powers might be thinking? Germany seems to be the power bloc of the EU ... wonder if the US' super power is now becoming a distant memory?

Wondering what both Booker and Lonegan have to say about the state of affairs esp when Lonegan gets the endorsement from the likes of Ex-Gov Palin.
You have managed to jumble about 8 serious issues into one giant nonsensical, rambling post. The NFL's tax status has nothing to do with Palin, Lonegan, Booker, the EU, voter education, or government shutdowns.

Here's a better one -

How the NFL Fleeces Taxpayers
Taxpayers fund the stadiums, antitrust law doesn't apply to broadcast deals, the league enjoys nonprofit status, and Commissioner Roger Goodell makes $30 million a year. It's time to stop the public giveaways to America's richest sports league?and to the feudal lords who own its teams.
