If West By God Virginia can handle democracy, Iraq can handle it Mr. Rockefeller... how about you find some private employment for your state instead of voicing your ignorance on foreign policy...

WV Largest Private employer is WalMart... the only employers bigger than that are the state and federal governments.... You got other things you should be worried about Mr. Rockefeller.

WV's biggest employer used to be Weirton Steel. Now it's Wal-Mart. Rockefeller and Byrd take all the credit in the world for saving the state's steel industry, but they've really done nothing. The only governmental action in recent years that seems to have helped Weirton and Wheeling-Pitt steel (or, at least, was what the union workers demanded) was the tariffs imposed by (*gulp!*) the Bush Administration.
