Augs........

Anti-American comments don't make you anti-American.....it just....err....well....uhhh........hummmmm.......means ya don't like a lot of things about us !...Hee Hee.....Liberal Democrats make a living out of it here....and they "are" called "anti-American"..."Unpatriotic"....etc...etc....etc....and that's pretty messed up!
As you enjoy saying inflammatory things to see who you might get a "rise" out of in several countries.........I don't consider myself "baited" in the slightest.....hee hee hee....mainly because...I ENJOY THE BANTER!.......the debate keeps your juices going !....I thrive on it!.......Life is a little boring without it !.....Thank God for disagreeing opinions !.....

Kurt......
In the newspaper "Indian Country Today" I saw a cartoon in there once that showed the pilgrims coming over in ships and two Indians standing on the coastline observing them and one remarked....."We really need an immigration policy"........Ha Ha LoL.....
Even knowing that Native Americans were here for thousands of years.....they "immigrated" from the "land bridge" in the Bering Sea from Asia.....the only people who "aren't" an "immigrant" from somewhere are Africans on the continent of Africa.....hence "first modern man".....(if one wanted to get technical!)
As part Naive American myself......I have A LOT of strong feelings on the mistreatment of indians here in the America's......i'd need 16 pages to go through those......but as this IS a "coin forum".......
I'll 4th the LGF Quarter !......

Eaglefoot, LOL...that's great! Humor is healthy here because human nature is the same everyone. I seem to recall some recent genetic tests that suggest N.America was populated by at least 3 distinct immigration events, so outside origin stories, nobody here is exactly "native". The same goes with the current "native" Hawaiians, who supplanted an earlier population, but I digress here...

On the subject of coins, I say it's time for a reworking of our money. I guess the US doesn't do that all at once, but I also think the dime is due for a change too.

"On the subject of criticism, the US needs to hear what other people say about our country, particularly how our foreign policy affects their lives. After all, we enjoy telling the world how to behave--so we should have an open ear as well."

Are you really sure you want to hear what others have to say? That coul dbe kind of dangerous you, they might just rip your foundations apart. I think just after "victory" in the Iraq war, the interviews with American soldiers saying things like, 'they're supposed to be our friends, we liberated them' and the like suggest that the US makes sure people don't understand what the rest of the world thinks.

But then, putting native americans on coins seems to be a sort of healing process towards a new world order (in the sense of the baseball world series is like, the US and maybe one canadian team or something like that) where america joins the rest of the world, rather than pretends to be the dictator of the world.
Everyone asks the question, why did the US invade Iraq, with it's dictator, when Zimbabwe and its dictator are left alone.

But then on the positive side, if it wasn't the US, it would be Russian, and putin is much more of a meglamaniac than any US president, even Reagan and Jackson.

Maybe they should do a cold war series, have a Stalin and Roosevelt one cent coin, kennedy and Khrushchev nickel smiling over a map of cuba, Reagan and Gorbachev quarter pulling apart the USSR and a space race 10 cent coin with Gagarin and John Glenn, and a 50 cent coin of Bush kicking Putin up the arse or something like that.

It sure did !.........don't get "baited" by it !..........coins are cool !........
You won't change "his" mind....he won't change "your" mind......won't solve anything........and in fact there will be "little to none" in the way of support for you if you make any kind of attempt I've found!.......best not to go down the road at all!........(attacking and criticizing is more widely acceptable apparantly than a positive reality is......but here in the U.S. there is a President Bush "weariness" and IT IS AN ELECTION YEAR!)
So......not hard to figure out.......

Paper money will always make great insulation for houses!
We'll see how bad the "rollercoaster" ride will be.........I have faith that "eventually" it'll get strong again.......could certainly get "bad" for several years........the '20's & '30's were certainly a "depressing" time!....and the late '70's were not peaches and cream........another recession like the one that began at the end of the Clinton presidency is here now....add the price of gas to all of that.....yeah...who knows how severe for how long ?........if the dollar gets really weak......it's happened before.....it'll likely happen again and again and again.........ahhhh history !!...
