Thy didn't have to come over here because we went to their homeland. They were in their element attacking US citizens on a daily basis for the past 4 years.

No, indeed, not my sentiment. Your kidding. We flushed millions into the pockets of cheats and liars both in America and in various countries all along the way to the Middle east. there are thousands of immigrants to Iran acting as US consultants. They have fine jobs like janitors and cooks, maids and the list of personal services goes on. We have a fake green zone where people are in a human sized zoo. > > 8. What is the price for freedom?

The market dropped because they took out 30% or so of Wall Street. It came back and much quicker then expected. What million people lost jobs? Do you count my wife in loosing her Airline job in 2004 as part of that # ? Huge tax cuts made is easy for rich people to get richer. Plain and simple. It din very little for the economy as a whole. It did propagate the illusion that you were rich. Psst we are not. We are so in debit as a country, or don't you think of that as debt? _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
