Pat Robertson is not my spokesperson.  As far as the rest of your unhinged leftist diatribe it doesn't justify a response.

Don't apologize.  I love it!  Was trying to think of another moniker, anyway, since *Libby* is the name of someone was involved in leaking the name of a CIA agent.  I love my country and don't want to be associated with the treason committed by part of the Bush administration for the sake of *getting even* with a person for having the nerve to tell Americans the truth.

I thought of just turning the *bb* backwards, but then I become *Liddy* and I've never been arrested and don't want to be associated with that kind of corruption, either.

Just when I thought I wouldn't win, you came up with LILLY!  I love it!

So don't apologize.  Instead, please accept my thanks for the *handle*.

THEY are the poor innocent ones who are being ruthlessly attacked, completely unprovoked! 

I'm thinking there's a LOT to be said for that "opposite side of the bring" thing mentioned above!!!

Hope you have a nice holiday weekend, and yes, it's much more pleasant here.  I agree it's totally draining to even visit that board any more.  I feel like I'm walking into a minefield.

Some of them actually do serve a valuable purpose, though.  If I'm having a bad day when I'm upset, maybe making mistakes and feeling just generally stupid, I can always visit their board and instantly feel better, and I thank them for that.

Robert Bennett was CLINTON'S lawyer during several of his sexual harrassment lawsuits and the Monica fiasco.  Yes, he is a real Republican partisan.  Sheesh.

The law signed by President Clinton on Aug. 22, 1996, has transformed the way the nation helps its neediest citizens. Gone is the promise of a government check for parents raising children in poverty. In its place are 50 state programs to help those parents get jobs.

In the 12 years since caseloads peaked at 5.1 million families in 1994, millions have left the welfare rolls for low-paying jobs. Nearly 1 million more have been kicked off for not following states' rules or have used up all the benefits they're allowed under time limits. Today, 1.9 million families get cash benefits; in one-third of them, only the children qualify for aid. About 38% of those still on welfare are black, 33% white and 24% Hispanic.

Three in four families on welfare are headed by unmarried women. As a result, employment rates for all single women rose 25% before declining slightly since 2001. Earnings for the poorest 40% of families headed by women doubled from 1994 to 2000, before recession wiped out nearly half the gains. Poverty rates for children fell 25% before rising 10% since 2000.

"It was a profoundly important philosophic shift," says Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Michael Leavitt, who was governor of Utah when the law was implemented. "This was ... one of the few things in a decade you can look at and say the world really changed."

read ur post again.  U R talking about it like its true.  Maybe U can't see it but i can.

Both Suzy Orman and Jim Cramer were on the Today show and they thought it was a good deal which, I might add, surprised me.

I wonder what will happen now.

There goes my 401K!

These people are my heros..Protestors are my heros!  True patriots one and all.
