[TheForge] Test

[Rob Fertner]

Stick a fork in it. This is done. You got your digs in while appearing above
the fray. I've been on theforge since the mid-90's and we don't need another
flamewar.

Bob,

Actually, Jefferson didn't say it the way you posted.  Your post was
mis-quoted:

The Actual Jefferson quote was written  to Thomas Cooper:
"if we can but prevent the government from wasting the labours of the
people, under the pretence of taking care of them, they must become
happy." - Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Cooper, 29 November 1802[1]

Dann

P.S. If you ever read a true - false question, and part of the answer is
false... then the whole thing is false.

In that light... when I check on quotes like this of conservative posts
that I get in emails:  nearly all of them turn out to be edited into
"half" truth... like Nazi propaganda.  The meat of the idea has been
re-written for a right wing political  agenda.

P.S.S

I believe  THE FORGE  will lose some membership,  if we get cutting at one
another's political views.
For example,  when we get started it is so hard to let things alone.. for
example:
Did you hear Sarah Palin explaining how Paul Revere  warned the British
that the Americans were coming with their guns...? Hear it in Sarah
Palin's own unedited words

Then there is  Rupert Murdoch and Fox News' WAR  to Kill Big Bird and
Public Broadcasting.. it turns out that Public Broadcasting gets less
Federal TAX Money per year than Rupert Murdoch's "News Corp" company. 
Rather than pay income tax on their 10 Billion Dollars of Profit...
Murdoch's News Corp paid zero income tax and as a kicker it got 4.8
Billion Dollars in Federal Tax "refunds" So Murdoch's Fox "News Corp" 
averaged 1.2 BILLION dollars given to him  per year for the prior 4 years.
 Nothing new about this, as  I  found British News Paper Stories on this 
going back to 1999.
