“It wasn't just the banks that were sold a load of sand.

The abrupt decline in construction has caused many American workers to flee to what they thought was long term work in the sand pile by the beach. They thought that they would be greeted as welcome; they were instead put on ‘prison busses’ and taken to the less than acceptable living quarters.

Now they don’t even have that. Welcome home boys; how did you like life offshore?”

“They have jobs, they are in the military. We need to rebuild our armed forces and make our military strong for when there IS a legitimate need. All the support activities around military bases (in Germany…..­etc) need to be happening here, where we need the jobs. We need peacetime training-up and the civilian activity that goes along with it. Why spend the soldiers money off shore? Fold it into our economy.

WIN - WIN”

“Here in Atlanta you might need to wait for two or three hours for the cop to show-up so that he could witness the finger.

You would not get a ticket for your effort; you would feel some pain, then get arrested.”

“Arrested for what? For not breaking the law?

That's wonderful. When did Atlanta roll over and become a police state?”

“The fines sound fair.

Why are the proceeds not forwarded to the passengers?

“I say award the fines to high speed rail.

I love airplanes, I hate airlines. Train travel is much nicer. Nice seats, room to roam, few weather delays, reliable service, efficient-but of course not in the US, where the rails are all privately owned, and the passenger service is an appeasement allowed at the rail owners convenience.”

“1. Very different circumstances now. Now it makes sense. All that is needed is some leadership.
2. George W. was the worst president in the history of America. EVERYTHING he did was wrong. Don’t try and hang that bell on me.
3. You would be wrong. I am not now, nor have I ever received any veterans benefits even though I am entitled. I have left that well for those that need them.
4. I have at all times campaigned for all American troops to be returned home. All.

You are so far off target as to be laughable, were it not so tragic.

Adult? I don’t think so

Addled is probably a better word for you.”

“No leadership on healthcare reform, passive acceptance of not bothering to negotiate terms of bailout repayment, faux worry about the mounting national debt, but willing to send thousands more American citizens to a country that has no concept of government - to protect drug dealers.

That is change I could do without!”

zeke67 replied on Nov 24, 2009 at 11:53:51

“1. President Obama HAD to take a backup roll in healthcare reform. Remember what happened the last time a president tried to take a leadership role with HC? The repubs resented it and crushed it. Obama's sideline way is the way to go.
2. Bush didn't negotiate terms of the bailouts he passed either. Oh yeah, remember that? Bush was for bailouts too. I bet you forgot.
3. He's worried about the national debt but you got to prime the pump to get the economy moving. Being that you're a vet, I'm sure you would hate having your vet benefits cut in order to bring down said debt. Yeah, I thought so.
4. Oh now you have a problem with him sending troops. I bet last week you were fussing about, "When is Obama gonna send more troops?" Now it's "Oh he's protecting drug dealers, waaaaah!!"

Hush, the adults in the room are talking son.”
