LOL. Even a broken watch has the right time twice a day... Thanks kat!

If you want me to read your comment, you will have to put it in either the first paragraph or the last paragraph of your post. Your posts are so long that that's all most of us read. Boy, you sure talk a lot.

Actually, Iraqi's love to have people tell them what to do. They readily submit to any powerful person that appears on the scene. That's part of the problem we have in Iraq, we haven't been as harsh as their mullahs, so we don't get as much respect because we're seen as being weak.

Njorl, You are absolutely right. Not only are Americans very intolerent of foreigners meddling in their affairs, even east coast ivy leaguers can cause great resentment in mid-western, and western states. Ranchers and farmers don't like the idea of their fate being decided by a person who...

My views have no effect on the situation. I am unable to find help. There is a labor shortage. Is this somehow difficult for you to understand? What is it that you don't get? Are the numbers confusing to you? Do you know what a labor shortage is? Do you have some agenda that is clouding your...

Government statistics on poverty in the U.S. are absolutely meaningless. Our "underground economy" is HUGE. Many self-employed people in this country report only a very small portion of their actual income. The international underground drug trade is so large that at times it affects the fed's...

All governments are crackers. Ours would probably even hire you. From what I can tell, you love to make up BS statistics. There is a GREAT demand for people like you in our government. Then you would no longer be part of the 174% of our population that is living in poverty, and people like me...

30 million? You're crackers.

Sorry you're not doing well, perhaps you should find yourself a different favoured mode of creative expression.

1) There are lots of jobs and not many workers here. I could work 3 jobs if I wanted to. So could anyone else. 2) I agree with you; Bill Gates is right. 3) Australian firing squad: READY!... FIRE!... AIM!
