I think you see both extremes. Pets treated terribly and then pets treated like princesses. I am not a pet owner so I don't understand when people spend thousands on a pet rather than have a child. On the other hand, I hate seeing an animal mistreated. Like a lot…

I am another gaijin fan of his. He seemed to be simple a good man. Someone who spoke his mind. I was here in 98 when he hosted Clintons televised "town meeting". I am sure Bill has fond memories of him. He was a class act. Incidentally, anyone who saw…

I don't think anyone can seriously argue that the media wasn't favoring Obama. It was obvious, and to me, it was scary.

It would be okay if people knew it, but if people don't realize that their favorable impression of Obama was at least in part shaped by media bias,…

VOR - the mainstream media did NOTHING for these last two months to talk about Acorn, Freddi Mac, and those who were linked to Freddie Mac and who made millions but then were involved with OBama. The fact that the democrats and Obama were able to pin the whole economic…

A private company like that shouldn't expect to get financial aid. It may be sad that they were forced to close, but for years the people who decided to make money by holding exams and issuing qualifications made money. Now there is an economic downturn and they aren't making money.…

Simon Foster - Yes it was deliberate. I am saying that a party has to decide what it stands for. You included radical liberals in the list of other groups in the electorate. I don't think that the republican party has to bother itself trying to get the vote of…

"There are radical left-wingers, .... out there too. If the Republican party is going to recover, it can still advocate its core philosophy of small government, low taxes and free enterprise tempered by fiscal responsibility.

So how many radical left-wingers will vote for a republican candidate arguing for small government…
