Actually, I didn't argue one way or the other. I just pointed out a monumental failure, which doesn't give me confidence in their actions.

Not in Rwanda. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/3573229.stm

Priceless.

When friends of mine cheat on their spouse, my trust in them diminishes. I no longer trust anything that comes out of the mouths of politicians (all parties), so it doesn't matter to me if they cheat or not. They are all fucking liars and hypocrites. I don’t expect them to be any more...

I wonder how many reps, regardless of party, actually read and understand the contents of this bill.

Let's begin with congress and how they spend. If they budgeted like my family does, they would find 10's if not 100's of billions of dollars. Let's get rid of some of their benefits until they learn how to be frugal with OUR money. That alone would give them the funds to set up community...

Should this prevention be mandated by the gov? You know, what you eat, how much you eat, how much you exercise, do you smoke, drink, etc? As far as I'm concerned, a 60 year old who spends 20 hours a week in the gym should have priority over a fat 30 something who sits in front of his PC 12...

Perhaps these might offer some clues. These are all gains. All Ordinaries 4,016.30 2:47AM ET 82.70 (2.10%) ^SSEC Shanghai Composite 2,816.25 3:00AM ET 28.36 (1.02%) ^HSI Hang Seng 18,785.66 5:59AM ET 727.17 (4.03%) ^BSESN BSE 30 15,466.81 6:28AM ET 339.81 (2.25%) ^JKSE Jakarta...

I don't remember if it was IB or TS, but I was unable to withdraw the amount that was tied up in the unsettled trades. I was allowed to withdraw the difference without waiting.

I'm not sure if your question refers to the law or their policy, but from their website: In the case of an account requesting 'Cash' trading permissions the minimum age requirement is 18 (for joint accounts, both parties must be at leat 18 years of age). In the case of an account...

Because you are right at the wrong time.

Should someone already have a pre-conceived idea, the dry and factual reporting alone may confirm his belief enough to spur him to action. Where does this exist? Fantasy land?

Really? Where do you draw the line between reporting and inciting? Simply reporting news can incite to violence. By your reasoning, let's look at the NYT and Abu Ghraib for starters. Let's look at the hatred spewed daily from political sights toward their opponents. Perhaps some...

As good a thread as any to post this: http://www.reuters.com/article/marketsNews/idCAL2100321620090602?rpc=44 http://finance.yahoo.com/intlindices?e=europe "Barclays (BARC.L) plunged 13.8 percent as traders said Abu Dhabi government-owned International Petroleum Investment Company...

When you take the time to learn about the candidates and your vote is cancelled out by someone who believes a single sound bite, when candidates do nothing but lie, and when the two parties are one in the same with the exception of a few minor differences, one has to wonder. When a member of...

Kind of reminds me of when they nominated Dole. That was my first big disappointment. The reason they pursued impeachment was the second. I didn't last anywhere as long as you. I registered R in 94 and registered I 12 years later. The spending was the last straw. I've been voting...

I feel that way about politicians.

I can't really disagree with this part of your post, but I would add: Had the republicans not tried to spend like democrats...

Some of our Obama supporting friends in Canada might enjoy this read. "Outrage in Canada as U.S. Firms Sever Ties To Obey Stimulus Rules" http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/05/14/AR2009051404241.html

The country was insane and irrational because we were attacked. That doesn't work for political cover. Nancy would have been better off to say she was for it before she was against it, but I guess that would make it difficult to prosecute or destroy the careers of people from a previous...
