It is indeed a bunch of 'I hate America' crap. But beyond that, it's the most poorly written piece I've seen in a very long time. I sincerely hope the author truly considers himself neither a writer nor gifted of intelligent thought. Opinion it is, but not a very well…

It's funny but I though I'd get on here today and see more of a conciliatory ‘coming together’ if you will of the different sides. It’s been a very tough and sometimes ugly battle, but it’s done and the outcome is history. Just scrolling through the comments (too many to…

McCain and Palin are no choice really. The old fart and the empty head. But I think those of you cheering for Chairman Barrack are going to be slightly suprised at what goes down when he takes the oval office. You get what you ask for, but it's not always…

Anot Susagami - Sorry, you're right on the 5K thing - read it wrong. Would you want to be the one employee that took the hit or got the axe? One sacrificed for the good of the many I suppose.

Certainly I think the wealthy should pay their share, but…

SezWho - Well, it is to a degree a punishment for being succesful. You have to pay more to the Feds for your business's success. I don't know if I'd say the society enables the wealth - the system does. So perhaps you're right in that the system can expect…

Gooddonkey I believe you. But that doesn't change my precept that just because you've been successful that you should be punished, and that in particular taxing a small business that might be successful is a bad practice economically. I'm certainly not an economist, but I think it fair (a no…

As usual, many of you lose the point. Obama will raise taxes; he's said this. Everyone is quick to say 'well, if this clown Joe (or any small business who will be taxed if making over the required amount) is making $250,000 he's rich and deserves to be taxed'.

Several…

So what exactly is the strong point of The Sarah Palin? Does she have any besides shrieking?

Well, I think she's kind of hot - which can't be said about anyone else we've ever had running. Not a brain trust I shoudln't think, but having to look…

Although this might sound cold and insensitive - there's a reason that in many nations we have building/venue inspections and codes that allow for maximum occupancy. This is tragic, but the fact that it happens year after year during these pilgrimages and festivals just makes it rather stupid.

Xeno23 - I don't think it could be more eloquently or beautifully put than that - thank you. And of course your comments were disregarded in the ceaseless and pointless arguments to follow.

Besides, it was the gallant Few in the Battle of Britain that won the Second World War…
