talking about how in America hard work is rewarded and I about spit out my pop I was sipping at the time.  Under his regime....hard work will not be rewarded.  What you earn with your hard work will be given to others who don't work hard.  Reward my rear end.  Sheesh. 

This whole bail out thing has me irritated beyond belief.  The idea of us having to pay in taxes because some irresponsible people got greedy and screwed us all.  This only makes the idea of universal healthcare worse to me.  Once again, having to pay for other people to have health insurance.  How is it my fault wall street crashed and how is it my fault that some people don't have health insurance but I guess as long as we all pay out the ying yang....everything will just be peaches n cream.....oh please...give me a friggin break. 

no on that one, but Bush couldn't have passed that without the support of many others.  Quite a few politicians voted yes for that one.  So you can't really just blame ole bushy for that either. 

Besides, the surge has won and Obama has yet to really admit that and he owes it to our troops who have fought and the ones who have lost their lives to admit that their efforts have been successful. 

My question is this though....there is a whole lotta crap going on over in Afghanastan (sp?).  We have troops over there now.  Even if we pull out of Iraq and let the Iraqi law enforcement take charge.....what happens in Afghanastan?  Do we pull out of there too?  What does Obama suggest we do?  Does any one know his view points on this because this is something I've never really researched.

just makes you seem somewhat sexist and I really was just curious? 

...monitoring and reading everyone's minds, it appears you've lost your own in the process.

It doesn't matter what a poster writes.  If you perceive anyone even trying to support the President of the United States, you automatically go into full combat alert and slam that person, regardless.  This is why intelligent, productive discussions can't be held on this board:  too much bitterness, hatred and playground bully behavior.

Obama won.  Your guy lost.  How about showing some dignity and grace (if you're capable).

I was talking with a friend who is a field consultant in the oil industry.  He said that it is very possible that OPEC has plans to terminate the US contract on or about March 14 in which the US gets the lion's share of OPEC oil.  He said what will happen is that instead of the US getting the largest supply of foreign oil, that oil will now be distributed to European countries who have gotten only the "leftovers" in the past and will now leave the US to get the "leftovers."  This, combined with decreased domestic drilling, will create higher oil and gas prices in the US. 

He has been out of work since long before Christmas and is now looking at the very real possibility of having to relocate his family to Saudi in order to make a living.  He and his wife are not wanting to take this route, but with the jobs drying up here, it may be his only alternative if he wishes to remain in the oil industry which is the only work he has ever done. 

There is a pipe yard located about 30 miles from here in which there are a lot of drilling towers just sitting on the yard, and that is only one of many such yards in the area. 

So get ready to either pay through the nose for gas or buy a horse and buggy!

I think I posted an article on this further down on the page.

The anti-missle defense in Hawaii is ready with missles that can take out NK's missles without a problem. Anyhow, they don't believe NK has enough fire power to make it to Hawaii. Hawaii is 4500 miles away, while the missle is only supposed to be good for 4000 miles.

Now, Alaska is a different story, but they are also on alert. 

I trust our miliary. I think our country will be safe. S. Korea, though, is another story if he sets off a nuclear warhead like he threatened. That nut keeps telling his people that WE are threatening nuclear war with THEM and have built up the nuclear war defenses on the DMZ.

This is probably ONE of the tests Biden talked about. The other one is Iran.

working today and didn't have much time to do anything else. I spotted that post and just wanted to see where it came from. FYI, I usually I DO my own research.

when that was going on. It was only after I started reading the posts on this board that I really started to nose around. If I would have known, I would've been protesting loudly. So, it's my fault in that respect.

I still don't have a lot of time to spend on this board, but someday I will. Some days I can't get on here at all. Other days, only 1/2 hour.

Wallace's bash-the-media exercise has its merits as a campaign tactic. It certainly rallies the base. But the base won't lift McCain to 50% in November. More importantly, in her smug dismissal of the media's role in asking questions of the candidates, Wallace was really showing contempt not for reporters, but for voters.

they are usually wrong.  Sorry.
