Even then, it is hard because rooms get painted and bathrooms get remodeled. It is hard to find your unchangin...

The Main Stream Media seems to agree with Congressman John the mouth Murtha when he maintains that his older constituents are "racists" and "rednecks". Of course, Murtha is older himself so if the shoe fits, wear it John. They got this idea from the Chicago Tribune, which ran an article pointing out that senior citizens are biologically bent toward bigotry. The article was titled "Older Voters Racial Bias May Have Medical Reasons" {what a crock}!!! The Tribune Claimed "For very basic physiolo...

Thus, the present widespread economic and financial crisis should not be unexpected. The 'bubble' created by competition and greed had, inevitably, to burst. Yet the 'men of money' who built this towering edifice on shifting sands are stunned by the outcome, are at a loss to...
