Here is something for you Tiggerpaw>> Loppy, a.k.a. Carrie or Kerry or just simply the guy with the lop sided head on Public TV is just like watching a spoof cartoon. What is really funny is when he gets to lying the left side of his forehead starts wrinkling up more. His left eyebrow will also go up higher. His handlers better stop worrying about his immaculate haircut and do something about getting him to turn his lop sided head to the left rather than the right. When his head was turned to the right I spent so much of my time thinking about who clobbered him on his left cheek. Also couldn't stop wondering about that left eye. Is it a glass one? Then he goes on to talk about putting welfare folks on the government health plan for federal employees. This is just great news for federal employees.... just give em the farm. I sure am glad that Rev Al Sharpton is headed to be the democrap nominee. Unlike Loppy, Al does not have any disfiguring body effects which draws attention away from the message...... democraps are ready to start lining up behind big Al. Just watch em. response: Kerry's funny shaped head is the butt of all jokes in DC now. Plastic surgeons wanted. An Afro would fix it just fine, IMHO. heheheh response: Yep, I can just see Loppy, the guy with the funny looking head, sporting an Afro & asking Rev Al Sharpton if he would accept him as his VP nominee. However, I understand Rev Al Sharpton will be looking for someone fresh to run on his ticket as the VP. Loppy, is not fresh and smells more like rotten beef from that mad cow diseased animal from canada. Message 19081397 siliconinvestor.com. siliconinvestor.com.

WTH, you've proven many times you can't handle yourself in a substantive debate. You prove it daily. U.S. unemployment rose to its worst level in nine years in June as businesses cut thousands of jobs, the government said Thursday. You are aware, are you not, that the highest level of unemployment in the Great Depression was under <font color=red> FDR</font>? And, in case you want to hold his predecessor entirely at fault, FDR engineered another mini-depression in 1937. And that was entirely on his watch. It is also widely recognized that unemployment is a lagging indicator these days- -ever since those Feds you so admire decided the books needed cooking and started dropping people from the unemployment count to make the numbers look better. Now what happens is that unemployed who had quit looking and are no longer counted start looking again once more jobs become available- -and the unemployment rate rises as things start improving. Let's see, have you noticed the market has put on quite a rally? You were claiming a while back it is a leading indicator. OK, then it's indicating better times are coming. the percentage of unemployed people who have exhausted unemployment benefits is now near an all-time hire. (sic) And the unemployment high in the Great Depression was 25%. We're less than a quarter of that. GWB was left a royal shambles of an economy by his predecessor. That SOB was lucky enough to bail out just as the bubble he had built burst. Now we have to clean up his mess.
