LOL! BTW, I am a believer that private enterprise trumps government in creating jobs and profit. I suspect that Obama believes the same thing: see for example the thrust of stimulus packages and the Great Giveaways to mega-corporations. Growing bigger government and setting up private no-bid contracts to favored corporations seems to have been the modus operendi of the prior administration.

all they want to do is destroy a presidency and attempt to ensure that the sitting president only serves one term? Business as usual. The dems have been doing it for years. They didn't succeed with Bush. Let's see if the repubs have better luck. Methinks they will.

Brushworks, how does your comment add to this discussion? Is your son asking to wear a skirt?

*snicker*. You're funny, Paulines. Too bad you didn't read your own link. From it: "In Muslim countries, a person's clothing may reflect practical, religious, social, cultural, and political considerations. For centuries, Muslims typically wore long, flowing garments.

The private, for profit company, with a guaranteed, profitable market, was unable to produce enough.

The deafening silence in response to your question tells me that not too many people know, sure some like it some don't but apparently this is not based on what it means.

"The women aren't at risk from abusive husbands and being brought to to the US for their safety?" Correct. Not that it has anything to do with your previous "asinine" statement.

Frightening crowd of rogues! This while IASB is trying to tighten regulations for banks outside the US by requiring projected loan losses to be reported earlier. Does anyone know if the US banks will be compelled to follow IASB practices eventually.

"I take this as a veiled threat where you imply that you plan to be letting GW know about the false claim. How else would they find out about it?" Jerzee, Calling attention to bad behavior is only a threat to people engaging in it. If we already have a moderator, that person knows what's going on without any help from me.
