I don't really understand your Congress, or your system of checks and balances.. because, as I said during the campaign - I'm just a caveman! I fell on some ice, and later got thawed out by scientists. But there is one thing I do know - we must do everything in our power to lower the Capitol Gains Tax. Thank you!

"When compared with our common ancestors, Trinkaus discovered modern humans have roughly twice as many uniquely distinct traits as do Neanderthals."
"In other words, Neanderthals are more like the other members of our family tree than modern humans are."
Maybe he's right. Maybe modern humans are unique. Maybe we didn't come from "our family tree" at all?

Maybe we didn't come from "our family tree" at all? Wherever we came from we are sure having trouble with whatever it was we were supposed to be doing.

So that is what "progressive" means. I was always wondering just where Libs were progressing to, now I can see it. What idiots!
