OH And speaking of ENRON, how many of Obama's cabinet were part of that one??? Two I can think of. The roots of corruption run MUCH deeper than you are seeing I think but that is my opinion.







you seriously underestimate me. that is not an opinion, it is a fact.

Members of Clinton's team were also involved with Enron. Even state department planes were used by top ENRON executives to travel to Russia..........

Well because it is Faux news, I have to question the truthfulness and spin on the article first and then if true say he needs to make sure he protects himself because there are some crazies in this world.

I will repeat my self in the hopes I can catch both of you while you come out of the sand for air.....

wow,, the fact that something happens often doesnt excuse its unacceptableness...

as to being created equal,, Im sure had you been next to Mike Tyson in the nursery,, he wouldnt have had such an EXTREME advantage,, but mentoring and TRAINING put him at an advantage later in life.

and we have all been equally capable of death since time began,,guns didnt do anything to improve that situation,,,its a constant


Genetically speaking we are all similar but different. One child will be physically stronger than the other. One will be smarter. Mentoring has nothing to do with "Genetic Predisposition." I tried working out with mentoring and never got defined or bigger. I did get a lot stronger for it. I could never achieve a wash board set of abs. Now comparing me to Mike Tyson, I do not have his genetic predisposition to be large like him. My arms are only 14 inches and that is from hard physical labor. BUT Mike Tyson has the intellectual prowess of an Idaho Spud. What is funny is that we do have ONE thing in common. Both of us raised pigeons and he supposedly is really good with them. The fact in life outside of the "Human Norm" is that early on if the child does not have the genes they don't live hence, like in fish a single spawning can yield over four million children in some species BUT may be four or five out of all of them will ever live long enough to reach sexual maturity let alone have the chance to breed.

Now a fish cannot in itself affect its environment more than eating other fish or rock scraping and pooping. A single human cannot do much more than that either except for can create fire and can do considerable damage but so do other natural phenomenon. When you begin to add more humans that changes. Now we can begin to actually change the environment and now we have SO many humans that we now do affect serious changes to the environment but then again the earth itself makes most of those changes happen. Now back to All men Are Created Equal.

I am a Mechanical genius. Period. I am extremely eccentric in my own ways. I am no social butterfly. My strengths are problem solving, building, and organizing work. I also excelled in science but when it comes to Algebra I am a total retard. It gets too confusing with too many rules. If I apply it I can do it but when you get into imaginary constructs I begin to loose it. I am not a very abstract thinker. I do however have a very good sense of dimension in 3D and that applies to making useful things. I however am not very Physical in that I have the diamond cut musculature and I can't run long distances. I can ride a bike all day. Love to roller skate too. I can row a boat all day but I sure in hell am not going to get into a boxing ring and get my butt handed to me and take a pounding for a sport. I am not into pain. In the real world (wilderness setting) if you don't have a threshold for pain you will die out there. Mike Tyson could very well be able to manhandle a Leopard. There is no way I could. I just am not strong enough. NOW the meat and potatoes.

Man is a tool using creature and that is not exactly unique in Nature. Birds, and mammals, have clearly been witnessed utilizing things found in nature to their advantage but to shape an object for a purpose is tool using and that has again been witnessed in birds and mammals. Mike Tyson cannot make a gun. I could with the right machining tools but then hell, a pipe shotgun is not hard to make either and all I need is a drill. I also could fabricate a spear and something better than having a pointy wood tip.

Look back on early human history at the stone age. The hunters would have been the most valuable member of the group but to hunt with spears takes a lot of stamina and strength. Everyone would hope for big strong hunters for children. Now the smaller weaker children would grow up with less status in the tribe and also would either prove to be useful somehow or they were driven off as useless. Now comes fire. It takes practice and skill to do it and not everyone to this day without matches or a lighter can make a fire. Now comes the smaller weaker child who could not hunt as well as the others comes along and watching someone do it manages to start a fire for everyone? That child suddenly became a very important asset to the tribe! Even more so than the hunters. Often if they shown any kind of real intellectual ability they often became the advisers to the chief and even took care of the spiritual needs of the tribe. I think that the concept of magic as we know it came from the select few in our early history who had to used three to five items put together in the right way and with the proper ceremony a fire was started for the night. That was viewed as power then. It is now. You don't just rub two sticks together to make fire. It works differently as it is portrayed. Honestly, can you make a fire without matches or a lighter?

See what I mean by all men are not created equal? Mike Tyson would be a hunter and I would be a Firestarter if this was the stone age. Hunters are a dime a dozen.

For some reason I see myself having been a Shaman in a past life.



its gonna be a matter of semantics,, much like color when applied to people is not the same as color when applied to HUES (black, white,,etcc) Equal when applied to man is not the same(to me anyhow) as equal when applied to numbers. People are not made IDENTICAL ,as equal numbers would be, but they are created equal.

PS Why do so many Canadians and Mexicans come here for health care? Behind who? France? Like they can afford what they took on. The French are having their share of regrets! Could you PLEASE qualify your statement. Don't you dare bring up Switzerland! They are a closed border nation. They do not count! They don't put up with illegal immigration for one! only mention nations with open immigration policies like ours! Who are you going to compare us to now? Japan? Don't go there either! Their health care is even more expensive than ours!


Why do so many elderly in the U.S. get their meds from Canada?

Just sayin.

ok guys, my common sense guess is,, these three countries cross borders for services and goods because,,,geographically, its not much different than crossing into another state

and in the SPECIALIZED area of Cancer,, we have more money and resources for the research which helps to provide superior care....but that is ONE area of medicine.....
many americans travel abroad for plastic surgery,, because,, the prices are better, and that is another area of medicine

Im sure we can find regions all over the globe that are superior in specialized areas of medicine,, but it still doesnt mean America doesnt need improvement

Republican Rep. Eric Cantor's Richmond campaign office was shot at Wednesday night, Fox News has learned, the latest in a rash of apparent threats and acts of intimidation against members of Congress.

Most of the threats so far have been reported by Democrats, but Cantor -- the No. 2 Republican in the House -- is one of about 10 lawmakers who has asked for increased security protection, Fox News has learned. As a member of the House leadership, U.S. Capitol Police already provide Cantor with a security detail around the clock, but he has asked for more security.

As House Republican whip, Cantor is the highest elected Jewish politician in the country.

The Department of Homeland Security is involved in the Cantor case because he is a member of the House leadership.

Fox News has also obtained a threatening message left Friday on the voicemail of Rep. Jean Schmidt, R-Ohio.

Shhhhh....the Libs don't want anything to override the threats that THEY have been getting.

They can't play the " victim " if people on the OTHER side have bad things happening to them too.

Personally, I would blow off the comments that happened on Friday. You need to have thick skin to be in congress so when someone calls them a Ni$$er or Faggot should just blow it off, I would. Personally when someone uses terms like that or teabagger I just look at them for what they really are, uneducated and simple minded with no class what so ever.

I think he did blow it off. I also agree when people are resorting to name calling and vulgarity,, I presume that they dont have a VALID argument to make and are trying to DISTRACT attention away from that fact.

or maybe not,, as I have stated before, as much as being American is a privilege, we are a fickle bunch who change our positions and minds quite often,,,,,

today on yahoo...

'The victory came ugly and it was narrow. But it was also sweet. It was historic and, politically, it was big.

The question is, will the passage of health care overhaul also prove a Pyrrhic victory for Democrats -- one that will devastate the winners in the 2010 elections?

Republicans think so, citing polls showing health care overhaul to be deeply unpopular.

As former Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) declared in an e-mail blast Wednesday -- titled "This Will Not Stand" -- "in every recent poll, the vast majority of Americans opposed this monstrosity."

That was largely true up to the moment that the House passed the health care bill Sunday. But on Tuesday, the USA Today/Gallup poll showed that opinion had flipped and that, by 49 percent to 40 percent, those polled said it was "a good thing" that health care passed.

And, on closer examination, the most negative of the pre-vote polls showed a silver lining for Democrats.

The top line of the March 19-21 CNN/Opinion Research poll showed that by 59 percent to 39 percent, voters opposed the bill that the House was about to vote on.

But when asked why, 13 percent of those opposed said the bill was "not liberal enough." Add them to the 39 percent in favor, and the balance came out 52 percent in support and 43 percent against, just about President Barack Obama's margin of victory in 2008

According to the Richmond Police Dpt. this was a random act and not tied to any political agenda. The bullet was fired sometime between Monday(pm) and Tuesday(am)not on Wednesday as you have reported here. It,as it turns out, was/is a stray bullet. (which is kind of frightening on its own)
