In reply to the discussion: The WTF? File: New $500,000,000 U.S. Embassy in London. [View all]think
(11,641 posts)20. I'll take the law abiding and constitutional route thank you.
Very little of which applies to our government currently.
A US embassy is not high on my priority list while we are drowning in debt. The government is spending like a drunken teenager with the parent's credit card and no seems to care. If those people in the Gov who are in control of the direction of this country ever get back to being a responsible law abiding part of the US and is acting fiscally responsible then talk of new embassies would not bother me in the least.
Until then shame on us for letting these thieves run amok .

Nope. Another boondoggle for crony capitalists. Do the Brits have complaints about the old embassy?

Yes, those are always an amazing nationalistic spectacle. Do they actually keep people...

Hoping by your signature line you mean reducing the debt by ending war and not killing off the poor.

What do you think of Ron Paul's vision for doing this since you choose to bring it up?

Check the last, dipsy mentioned what was in it. And it shows how the money is just flying around.

There's dipsy's barricades. Why not anchor a huge ship offshore. Would be more private.
