I was not alluding to real trains hitting each other, okay?
Taking everything you read literally is the best way I know of to be brainwashed, cheated, fooled, hoodwinked, taken advantage of, screwed, you name it.
What I alluded to is that I don't want MY tax dollars, or anyone ELSE's, bailing out a bunch of crooks who STOLE money from a bunch of people, sold 'em bad loans, etc., and got RICH BEYOND ANYONE'S WILDEST DREAMS by doing so.
Wall Street & Corporate America have turned into one giant con-man's shell-game, and it's about time there was a major shakeout and restructuring. Would it be difficult in the short-run? You bet. (Like it isn't already?) But in the long-run, if the system were reinvented and rebuilt, it might come out a lot better in the end.

GROW UP
We are talking about a real solution to a real problem and you insist on being an immature child and posting ridiculous comments. You are really not as important as you seem to think you are. I think typing isn't the only thing you are backwards at. Like life for one.
Why don't YOU grow up.............sm
A little levity on this board is not a bad thing! I think it's important to be able to laugh once in a while. Sheesh!
Get a clue and grow up

Thank god Im still young enough for someone to tell me to Grow up

PS I did not hear that on TV
Heck Gov - just grow some more pot!
Now that's thinkin, Lincoln!
How does your garden grow? sm
She was a plant, and so was Chene Thompson, the State Rep's wife who offered her the use of a house rent free. How else does a homeless woman living in her pickup truck manage to get tickets to a town meeting (you don't just walk in) and make her way to the front of a crowd of people and just happen to stand beside the person who has the answer to her prayers?
Maybe those who dug through the records on Joe the Plumber can come up with something.
JTBB grow up!

Where Boys Grow up to be Jihadis.
I am attaching a link to a New York Times article written by Andrea Elliot this past Sunday. Be prepared, it is somewhat long, so dig in!
It is about her findings of the peope and the reasoning behind the attacks in Morrocco. It is a very interesting read.
I am also attaching a link to NPR's Fresh Air for a followup interview that she gave today in regards to her article which really sums up the whole experience for her.
This story epitomizes why I believe our interventionalist policies in dealing with the middle east and Islamic terrorism in general is failing and why we have to change our polices as soon as possible. It is sobering and I hope you find it interesting and enlightening.

No one is saying that they don't grow up to be good or responsible?!
All I am saying is they would have wanted you home, instead of a babysitter or someone else! No one said anything about the quality of person they turn out to be!? Little children need their moms and that is the truth! I know, I used to work at a daycare and how they would leave those poor little babies is beyond me! I couldn't do it! And it was anywhere from 8 to 12 hours a day! And then they would get jealous if they got attached to us!? Hello!? Who is raising them?! Not you lady! And I'm not talking about single moms either. These were "business" women who had husbands and felt the need to support their "lifestyle" and to give their kids "everything," when all they REALLY wanted was their love and time! I may not have the nicest, newest, biggest house, but my kids want for nothing, including me, and I am there for them!

I'm starting to dislike you dems more and more every day. Keep sinking, along with that sex article you forgot to publish the link to. You are all smut and no substance, most of the time.
I restate the last sentance - grow up!
Here, read real slow now so you can understand. My post had no political substance because it was in reply to your message -
If you can't figure out the simplist of things I feel quite sad for you.

Grow a funny bone
You're going to give yourself a heart attack with that kind of bitterness, dearie.
If you fail to see why that post is hilarious, you must also be one of those people who failed to see that electing an ill-equipped pop idol to the highest post in the nation was a huge mistake.
You SHOULD be ashamed.
GROW UP SORE LOSER!
Please, put on those big-girl panties, stop crying, get that stiff upper lip and GROW THE BLEEEEEP UP!! YOU LOST. AMERICA WON!
Closed minds don't get nourished and thus can't grow. nm

Obama wants to grow small businesses
I can stick my head in the sand and pretend I don't know what this garbage is all about but anyone with half a brain would know you can't grow a business when you continue to pay pay pay through the nose AND give it to someone who has no motivation to do crap with their life.

time to grow up - both sides have said things they don't mean or regret or get twisted
There's a whole slew of things everyone has said that they wish they didn't and on important issues. One party is not free from that.
EVERYONE has faults. Whether your democrat OR republican, man OR woman, black OR white. They all have said things they don't mean or didn't come out right, or was totally twisted by the other side. Fact of life in politics.
If your going to go there be prepared to listen to all the things "your" candidate has said in the past. Then you'll whine when someone brings it out.
What........your twisted or hateful idea of truth, grow a heart, okay?...nm

OMG! ! ! Have you ever been brain-
washed. Or, either you are JTBB posting under still another moniker, which is very likely! These certainly sound like some of her childish name callings. Grow up for heavens sake! You are just another Fox hater because you know cannot stand the fact that they present the truth to people and are not ashamed to do so.
You think you got your brain all by yourself? WOW....

So disrespectful and immature. Ya think GW crashed his Tonka toys into the towers? Grow up

brain study
I read a study where they did brain scans on democrats and republicans and while scanning showed pictures of war. The republican brains lit up on the opposite side than the democrat brains. So, the study surmised that just maybe our brains were built to work differently and that could be why we have a take on things so radically differently. I will try to find the article and post the net address.
If the scarecrow had a brain (sm)
they would be smart enough to know that not everyone being paid an hourly wage less than the minimum wage is EARNING lessing than minimum wage. Or are they so cheap they've never left a tip?
If they had a brain they also would have checked their facts before they posted Al Franken's butt talk.
And if it didn't have a brain, it would be
Bush brain
This is how his mind works: How am I supposed to evacuate New Orleans.
His mind says, I KNOW ROW VERSUS WADE, I believe I heard that somewhere.
What an idiot, what a jerk. He took responsibility for this mess, did not have enough balls to mention Iraq. The saddest thing is he has several extreme right believing him. I have nothing against conservative right, just extreme right. Hey, I am born again. I am not into organized religion, I am just into the teachings of Jesus Christ. I have strong beliefs, but this administration has decided we should all be organized religion. There has to be, has to be, a separation of church and state, that is where this idiot went wrong. Yes, things are different, kids cannot pray in schools or do the pledge of allegiance, but anyone with a mind knows you can pray silently or do anything silently. Prob is they want it crammed down everyones throat. I have enough of a relationship with my God, I can pray anywhere, privately, do not have to do it like a marter with everyone looking on, it loses its power that way.
If you had a brain, you'd have a clue. sm
Unfortunately, you don't have either. And you are dangerous. You put us all at risk. Especially the military you PRETEND to support. And it is a pretense. We all know it. Cowards. You are all cowards.
Yes, the brain is evil.
I don't know what else you could call it. Just the fact that Bush relies on a man with Rove's kind of history says all there is to say about this administration - the addition of the rest of the Nixon-era chickenhawks is icing on that sh**cake. It's creepy beyond belief how some Bush supporters actually applaud that kind of dirty business and call it political saavy. Let's call it what it really is - just plain amoral and reprehensible sociopathic behavior.
Fox is #1 among the BRAIN DEAD
LOL - studies have proven FOX viewers to be significantly LESS informed about current events than ANY of the other networks (though they are all back)...
FOX tells the brain-dead WHAT THEY WANT to hear -
THEY DISTORT, YOU REPEAT.
Hey, I think I hear Bill O'LIEly calling you!
Yes I have a heart and a brain
which are 2 things you lack. If you were raped by your father would you have the baby? Take a walk (not a ride) through the homeless or less than privledged areas in your community. Get a grip lady - deal with reality and stop turning away every time you see someone who has alot less than you. It's not murder you jack a-hole!

It does not matter if he was born on Mars or in a spaceship, his mother was an American citizen when he was born and was until the day she died. That makes him a natural-born American citizen and eligible to run for president. Do I need to repeat myself again? What is it that you do not understand?

If my grandma, mother, etc died today, I wouldn't say any of those things because I would be with my family grieving the loss. Obviously, Obama doesn't care that much or he'd be there with his family.

also about Israel.
From another Republican under the Reagan Administration, Paul Craig Roberts: http://www.vdare.com/roberts/090508_hate_crime.htm
Since the passage of the Global Anti-Semitism Review Act in 2004, the US Department of State is required to monitor anti-Semitism worldwide. The State Department is not required to monitor anti-Americanism or sentiments against Christians, Muslims or Arabs. Thus, the act created a specially protected class worthy of careful monitoring by the US Department of State of negative sentiments expressed against Jews.
In order to monitor anti-Semitism, the term must be defined. The definition is subjective and will be widely, rather than narrowly, interpreted.
The State Department has come up with its attempt. The State Department’s approach could include any truthful statements about Israel and its behavior toward the Palestinians that the Israeli government or AIPAC or the Anti-Defamation League would deny or contest.
Anti-Semitic speech can be interpreted as inciting hatred. Inciting hatred can be interpreted to be a violent act. “Excessive” criticism of Israel is a subjective, indefinable concept that can be used to determine anti-semitic speech. It is easy to conflate “excessive” with “strong”.
Thus, demands that Israel be held accountable for war crimes committed in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, or elsewhere become acts of the “hate crime” of anti-semitism.

The comparison with a poodle is actually an insult.
But you do not get it, do you?
Remember, when Blair was called 'the poodle of Bush'?
Or did you never hear about this? It's politics.
