Denise- I detect a strong whiff of anti-Semitism in your comment but the worse part of it is it is has more truth in it than most Jews would admit to. The Jews that Obama surrounds himself with are as much pro-Zionist as was the former President of France, J. Chirac. They have no love of the land of Israel and there are many in Israel itself who spit on other Jews because Read More
Go ask your mom: in her day, they were all glued what to do when you are bored the phone. GLUED. As in: no one got to use the phone between the hours of 3:30 pm and midnight, on school days. And don't forget: people said the same thing about pocket calculators (remember those? I don't either) and Sony Walkmans. In fact, I'm pretty sure people said the same thing about Read More
So, the technology revolution that coincided with the growth of the 80's and 90's had little to do with the job growth? What recourse would the author recommend for the corporate accounting scandels at the end of that period and the more recent financial legerdemain in the mortgage/finance sector, caveat emptor?

Wow, the banks don't want to be responsible for anything they do, they want to be given another pass, and they want to continue to practice bait & switch, now they want to start charging $5 for every credit card transaction... ummm, time to turn on the banks. Actually we could do without them, it wouldn't be convenient, it would be a pain in the asterisk but we could Read More

Probably something sold in their bookstores.... So let me ask you some questions: Did Reagan lead the Electorate in prayer before stepping into the GOP race? Did Reagan endorse a Presidential Candidate Read More
Knee replacements can be appropriate, but impact sports over 50 are not appropriate. I am in the middle of 2 joint dislocation PT, hopefully will not need surgery. I am in my 60 s and will keep skiing, but barreling down a mountain on skis is going to result in emotional trauma. Trauma hurts a lot and I cannot open a bottle of water without my teeth. I cannot shovel Read More
I appreciate Mr. Toth's nostalgia for Pan Am, and the level of service that era epihow to forget someone you lovemized. My life was changed on that airline in December 1990, because I met the love of my life on Clipper Catch of the Seas. It was my flight as a young Army officer into Desert Shield/Desert Storm, and my future wife was one of the flight attendants. We Read More
Social conservatism will never work in the next twenty years. America is how to tell if a guy likes youo socially liberal for that to happen. Fiscal conservatism is the only way for the GOP to carry the day here. If this social conservatism rhetoric continues, Mr. Obama is guaranteed a seat. After all, social conservatism doesn't work well with the American public. Nobody Read More
I'm not real online jobsly speaking for myself, per se, but I know a lot of people who make their living just on preparing tax returns. And with so many turning to online preparation software, we are starting to see elimination of jobs considered to be of expertise. These were good paying jobs that fulfilled an actual purpose. Technology is killing jobs, and those who Read More
