Free Republic

Are you implying that there is something bad about this?
It’s not fair that rich people have the money!

A Big Part of the educational process of going to college is figuring how to pay for it...certainly anyone working summers and part time to contribute to its cost has a greater appreciation for the education,will work harder to complete it, and and pride in having earned it both financially and educationally.

Or, you could tell Jennifer to count her blessings. I just learned that I have cancer in 9. Places from lower back to brain. 50% chance I will live 1 more year .

Glad I kept my Ferrari Testa Rosa....worth 17 million now.

This has been true for many years for foreigners that start businesses in the US. I ran the US subsidiary for a wealthy Dutch guy for years. We built a building , and had all US employees. This was a good thing.
And, I think this plan is good, too. Can't believe I'm agreeing with chuck-U-schummer but how can it hurt to bring foreign money to the USA to buy houses! And they will buy a lot of other things, too. Heck, why not lower the threshold to a $300K house...

I live in Columbus. You could have gone to Ohio State. Not nearly as liberal, but there are still plenty of them, of course. Some of the prof’s live in my neighborhood. One neighborhood couple in particular is Jewish and from NYC, both PhD’s at Ohio State and former libs that are now very conservative. They don't talk about that much “at school”, they told me.
OSU....Better football team, too. ( Except this year)
Best regards, John

Must have been painful to go to school there if you are a conservative...one of the most liberal places in the country. So, overpaying public employee execs running a money losing business is to be expected.

Anyone familiar with radio controlled airplanes is LOL at this “plot” and the dumbness of the lame stream media reporting on it. Just how much weight do they think an R/C plane can carry? Think you can just stick it on anywhere? Do they think explosives just go off on impact?
Our “perp” has to have a take-off area, start the engine, and fly it by line of sight while holding a transmitter. Sounds real stealthy, doesn't it?
Did they ask if this guy even knows how to fly an R/C plane?

I voted Democrat because a $10,000 balance on my credit cards is a disaster, but a $17 trillion gov’t debt is just a statistic...

LOL!

I think the credit rating agencies are a bunch of idiots. The US borrows 40 cents for every dollar they spend....so why did they have an AAA rating? Rating should have been lowered years ago.

“Give him piano lessons.”
Banjo, too.

yep, I saw that, too.....

I like this story

The ban on 100 Watt incandescent bulbs is already in effect in California. New on the shelves is 95 watt bulbs.

Morris has never been right about anything...

sure it is...that's why millions of adults, and every teenager... is lying dead on the sidewalk.

“Supposedly pure garlic juice kills MRSA in wound care:.
No, it doesn't. Please stop spreading the nonsense that you hear from your friends or read on the Internet....please.

I would like to buy the franchise rights for Ohio, please.

for once I agree with Obama....don't believe photos should be released. They are probably really gruesome, and would make it appear that it's a hunting trophy. Navy Seals, on the other hand, should all get some 8 by 10’s and some wallet size.

Thunderball was the best book ( I read it in 1965, along with all of the others....Freshman in college) Movie came out and it was a mind-blower for it's time, so I vote for Thunderball.

That is a different category....look it up.

“Price discrimination or price differentiation exists when sales of identical goods or services are transacted at different prices from the same provider.
Many gender-based price differences are held to be illegal but still occur often in countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom.”

Oil.....Oil

Somebody please post that pix of “Oh no, not this #h&t again!”.

You are correct. They shouldn’d...and wouldn't if there were term limits. This would prevent incumbents from using taxpayer money in ways to prolong their stay in power without regard to the long term consequences. This assumes they have a conscience at all.

Common sense? Fed. budget is $3.8 trillion and 43% of it will come from borrowed money. A financial disaster lies ahead. What would common sense say to do about it?

It was only 39 billion..... a pittance...and the dems will take credit for it as if they wanted to reduce the deficit....and the media will buy into hook, line, and sinker.

Was it just last year that the State of Florida considered suing BP ( British Petroleum) for something like $600 million because the threat of an oil slick was keeping tourist away? The slick never happened, just like these dire annual hurricane don't happen. Is Florida going to consider suing Colorado State University?

But wait...nuclear reactors are very dangerous. How can they be on ships with thousands of crewmen right there next to them?

Vegetarians all own cats. What do they feed the cats?

No, to own the company...paid for by YOU. Just like GM and Chrysler....

In other news, France has a (small) aircraft carrier!

True leadership is not a popularity contest determined by polls...

During his first few days in office he gave a talk ( 30 minutes—I watched it) about US energy independence. He never once mentioned the obvious: drill for our own oil in know reserves.

"So, humans could have an advantage in letting their thinking go on after the button has been pushed."

The double whammy of getting the answer wrong ( deduction for you, and lots of time for opponents to think of correct answer ) makes this a very bad strategy.

Those other guys knew the answers, too, to a great many of those questions. Watson was not listening to the question, but got in some digital form and could then “ push the signaling device” within a few milliseconds of the completion of the “clue”.
It was this super-accurate button pushing that resulted in a lopsided victory for him... I mean it. My opinion.

Anybody wanna take a guess at what Ronald Reagan would have done? Anyone? Anyone?

DC has a lot more Amish...

What did you expect...he probably ate goat meat every day of his life. Married one, too.

OK...I give up....who or what is the Mets? A family? The baseball team? The Metropolitan Opera?

What does she feed her cat? All vegetarians have cats. Cat need almost 100% meat diets.

I don't believe this is not going to work as planned. Those new bulbs give off half the light they claim, and in an odd color. They contain mercury, and they don't last nearly as long as claimed. Most cannot be used with a dimmer or photo switch or microprocessor controlled timer. In short, they suck...
Remember when Jimmy Carter tried to convert the country to the metric system...I predict it will be like that. A flop.

Try looking in KENYA....

Gifts I have given my wife: impact wrench, welding mask. leaf blower, scope for rifle, an iron, and a stainless steel fire extinguisher with roll bar mount.

It’s those Amish teenagers again....
