Leave your talking-points at home, Pat. There was never a surplus. It was a projection.
This points to clear sailing for the economy, but the political question remains: will working America share equitably in Wall Street’s prosperity?
From each according to his means to each according to his needs, eh Pat?
The price in dead and wounded, American and Iraqi, in divisions within this country and with our allies, in the anger and alienation of the Arab and Islamic street, is already high and rising.
I take what he means about "our allies" includes the French and the Germans. Sorry, but they're no longer our allies. "Aleination of the Arab and Islamc street?" Uh, last time I looked, the "Arab street" was alienated from us by their own choice, and was extremely hostile to the U.S. long before the current war in Iraq. Their aleination and anger means nothing to us. They'll remain angry with us no matter what we do.
Screw them. That includes the Frogs and the Germans as well.
Real men don't whine.
