    Seven years ago George bush and the republicans gave a tax cut to the wealthy. We had a recesion and as far as Im concerned we never recovered. I was working as a telemarketeer and my husband was at an assembly plant. In 2001 my husband was laid off after his job was outsourced. Then I lost my job too. My husband now works at Target and I held a job at Burger King. A week ago my job was terminated after buisness wasn't so well. Now were in another recession and Bush wants yet another tax cut?

    I guess my question is, how do we expect to defend ourselves against terrorism? We're fighting a war overseas and we can't even keep it together here!

    Assistant manager Donna Summers called Ogborn into her office, locked the door, ordered the teenager to take off her uniform and confiscated her cell phone and car keys. According to reports by the Louisville Courier-Journal and ABC News “Primetime,” the McDonald’s manager demanded that the employee remove her underwear (presumably to be searched for contraband) and confess to the crime. Ogborn was given a greasy apron to cover her naked body and was later forced to do naked jumping jacks and perform a sex act on Summers’ fiance, Walter Nix.

    ........."This was a man who moved with a surefootedness and determination that if it wasn't ruthlessness, it was just short of it." Terrence Smith.... said that for two decades the take on Rather was "great reporter, awkward anchor." "And, yet, nobody said it in public.... "Now you hear some of the most senior and respected voices at CBS - Andy Rooney, Mike Wallace and Walter Cronkite - saying these things. ... So, the question is: Why the bruising comments as he goes out the door?" Smith suggests that while the flawed story on Bush is a key part of the...
