The contract for the new voting machines is up for bid between two competing companies, Fisher Price and Mattel. END FLASH** jim ps-- this isn't real. Don't want you Democrats thinking toy stocks are going to skyrocket.

Perhaps they'll ask we cut off aid to them. I'd like to see a live shot of the bond trading pit in Chicago when foreign central banks decide to sell T-Bonds en masse. -g- Tom

Mr. Chickenman, you have hit the nail on the head. When they need us, we're their best friends, when we're not opening our pocketbook for them, they laugh at us. Next time let Cuba bail them out. Raise your hand if you give one good God damn about what foriegners think about how we do business here in the states. Perhaps they'll ask we cut off aid to them. Perhaps they'd prefer we not participate in global alliances for the protection of their soveriegnty. Perhaps they would prefer the next time a group like the Nazi's, Imperialistic Japanese, or the Soviet Bear invade their lands and attempt to dominate their people, we just mind our own business. I say FINE! Americans have sacraficed Blood and Money to protect the freedom they have, and behind which they now snipe.
