I meant young George.

pioneer2 i see you would rather insult people than look for real facts yourself. how many people don't know that thousands of teachers have been laid off in the United States. Police forces have been reduced all over California. Post offices are being threatened because they are not making a profit as the news reports it. I spoke to some of my neighborhood postal workers and they are dismayed because of the talks to close many post offices. Now where have you been? with regard to blabling b.s. i believe you are taking about yourself. And as the great religious leader Vernon Howard said, people sometimes confuse facts with an over active imagination. There are several places on the internet where you can get facts, regarding police, teachers & post office troubles. p.s. i realize the rich pay more taxes. But once again look at corporate welfare, offshore tax shelters, business writeoffs etc. Even many of the enlightened rich said they should pay more.

tabber: You're missing my point (I think) There is NO question mark after my statement about TED TURNER giving one billion dollars to the UN. Its on the internet. HE DID.

In his statement he said: He was giving it for REFUGEES, PEACEKEEPING, TO FIGHT DISEASES, TO UNICEF FOR CHILDREN, ETC. ETC.ETC.

Nowhere in his statement nor his speech does he mention the word REEEEEPUBLICAAAAAAAAN.

BUT YOU SAID HE DID.

In fact your statement is: titan Ted Turner, who owns CNN television gave away billion dollars to try to lead REEEEEEPUBLICAAAAAANS into sharing their wealth more. HE DID ???

I've googled every way I can think of to find that statement WHERE IS IT ??????

Then you go on to say that REEEEEPUUUBLICANS minds are programmed a certain way. AND YOURS ???????

IF YOU'RE IN NEED OF FACTS .. MAKE YOUR OWN??

AND OF COURSE THEN WE WONDER WHY WE HAVE THIS DISTRUST OF WHAT PEOPLE TELL US IS FACT.


Fireman, policemen, bridges ... these are all STATE, COUNTY, and CITY issues. I live in the midwest and we have not laid off ONE fireman, or policeman. When a bridge needs repair .... we repair it. Not the US GVT.

Yes there is some pressure as regards teachers. We'll solve that problem Too. The good news for us is that our politicians are not SLEEPING with the UNIONS ... so our finances are not in the toilet like some of these STATES that have spent themselves nuts.

THE POST OFFICE. There is a problem there. But why wouldn't there be. Retire after 30 years service with 80% of your wages, the effect of e-mail and the fax machine. All we get in the mail is junk. And the volume is down dramatically. Whats your answer ??

And of course while you didn't mention them by name. The lefts favorite whipping post.
THE KOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCH FAMILY.
Well since I live in the MIDWEST. Let me say the Koch Company and Koch family are GOOD CITIZENS. Yes they contribute to right of center causes (you can do that in America) they also give generously to various charities.
