    That is all well and good Wom.... Only, the problem right now is not a lack of trained people in the workforce. The problem is lack of work for them to do.

    History shows that Kensyian Economics (Government 'Stimulus') is only ever a very short term bump.

    History also tells us that the way out is to simply let the people and businesses keep more of their money to spend for themselves.

    Wow, what a lady. Now there is someone who looks after business the right way....and she probably works just for a wage.
    I love to see people like that who probably just keep out of the limelight and do their job properly.
    So how come across the border they vote for people like Al Gore ???

    BO just walked out to promote his NEW AND IMPROVED, health care reform bill.

    He gets a bunch of people dressed up in hospital coats and scrubs.

    Like, do the props really help make his point and how much time does his staff waste on stupid crap like that?

    A few months ago his staff was busted for handing out doctor's coats during a news conference on health care.

    Sometime I suspect that his agenda is more "propish" with smoke and mirrors that it is of substance.

    Politics as theater.

    Interesting.

    ------------

    He's wasted a year trying to reform HC as if the world was going to end if it doesn't.

    Sheesh.

    The will end for all of us eventually.
    Matter of fact I don't plan on being here forever.

    At times, health care just makes matters worse, check it out.

    I guess being propish costs far less than what the real issue would cost if he serious enough to do something about it.
    Pollies are pollies mate, they are the same everywhere.

    I love it when the lefty media tries to spin a turd.

    Sure, cuts taxes... Great idea.... But JUST LIKE BUSH DID, keep spending money that is not there.


    You'd think they are trying to bankrupt the country.

    Well, they did it. They did it at 10:30pm on Sunday. All the arm twisting, deals, bribes and threats worked I guess.


    Remember this day America. And my dear Hannah.... Please forgive us.

    Don't ask her for her forgiveness yet.


    We get off the floor and keep fighting. How can you lose when you look into her eyes and say, "I tried."

    Beats the hell outta telling here you stayed on the floor.

    We still have to 'clean house' and there are some legal challenges that have been tossed about regarding this bill.


    I passed up the tube today because I knew all the morons would be gloating and patting themselves on the back.


    LOL, I could 'write' in my votes for the next few years.

    The letter "D" just ain't gonna cut it.
