Probably a Coincidence

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Probably a coincidence that the former execs from GE are heading off to prison today and the current GE head hauncho claimed the unemployment figures were cooked without any evidence to back it up.

George McGovern's death

Posted By Rod Kaufman

If there's a man who stood by his convictions, it's was him. Even if it cost him an election.
As a captain flying his B-24 over Germany during the second world war, his plane took a direct hit and he faced the decision to bailout. Although his plane was on fire, he stayed with it and he brought his wounded back to his base.
History has shown him to be correct on Vietnam...

The world wants Obama to win

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Jim Johnson said:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-20008687

Except for Pakistan, which favors Romney. A landslide for Obama.

Does this mean Obama's foreign policy is working?
Are they afraid Romney will start wars?
Are these countries socialist?
Are they crazy?

France overwhelmingly favors Obama which is a good reason to vote for Romney. 8)

Any explanations?

Jim J
Well, let me see Jim, here's what Romney has said:
1. Russia is our number one geopolitical foe.
2. Wants the US to stay in Iraq and criticized us for leaving.
4. Can't articulate an exit from Afghanistan.
3. Can't give specifics on his economic plan that, in turn, affects the global economy.
Hmm, no Jim, they're not the ones who are crazy...
