were used in Planet of the Apes, the 1970's TV episodes? I remember watching them and they had some really primitive looking guns.

    They looked like disguised M1 carbines with 10 round mags. But that's just what they looked like to me.

    OH, TV show... I dunno. Never saw it.

    I think the entire TV series consists of about a dozen episodes and I can't remember seeing even one of them.

    I believe Doc is right from looking at the pictures and from comparing to a M1 carbine. They look pretty close just a different stock.

    Great, now they'll have to rename the entire franchise to "Planet of The Boat Anchors".

    Now slick, answer the questions in politics.

    You claimed you're so good, and the rest of us are stupid, so answer the question.

    would Raise it from $14.29 trillion to $16.79 trillion.

    That is 2.5 trillion dollars.

    estimates of when it will be spent are based on treasurey projections.

    Government Spending in 2011 will be over 5.5 trillion. Thats up nearly a trillion dollars from 2010.







    That 2.5 is for more than one year.

    Still far too much, but it's not a one year figure, so you can't just add it on to the one year spending total.

    The only way to come close on your total figure is to add state and local to the Federal spending.

    you are right if I had added the entire 2.5 trillion onto what is going to be spent for the year of 2011, the federal deficit would be over 8 trillions.

    about a trillion of it will be spent between now and the end of the year, along with over a trillion in taxes.

    As it stands Boehner will spend over 5.5 trillion this year.

    thats up almost a trillion from 2010.

    No matter which on of us is right about the actual tangable growth of the economy he will spend more then a third of the total GDP this year as well as next year.




    You aren't in the ballpark for Federal spending.

    The "deficit" would be over $8 trillion?

    WOW!

    Real figures would be interesting.

    I thought that they used M16 type weapons..... Oh wait you said Planet of the Apes.

    I heard something about Monkeys with guns and thought that you were referring to the AFT.
