The United States Peace Institute

The GOP congress critters must haver thought that an agency with "Peace Institute" in it's name would have to be one of them liberal groups that belongs on its budget hit list. According to a retired Marine General and Commander of the central command the peace institute is an essential part of the US security apparatus. The use of the budget process for the financial assasination of political enemies is no more productive than the use of a bulldozer to reduce spending.

Regards,

D-Ray

Yeh, but "you will find the institute’s competent work behind practically every American success in Iraq and Afghanistan." That's a pretty short list of accomplishments. If this statement is true, that's reason enough to zero out their budget.

It has the word "peace" in it's name, so it must be part of some evil Atheist commie plot. Everyone knows true Jesus loving Americans hate peace.

Oooo, they're riding a "Gravy Train" on YOUR dime?

Sounds like a good job. Where do I apply? Hope they're union.

You are being kind in assuming that GOP Congress critters are capable of thought.

Well, we know that "we have to pass it before we know what's in it," Pelosi is at the apex of thought.
