    Yes, poor Pennsylvania, staggering under a 4.9% unemployment rate (February 2008). Poor Pennsylvania, with a per capita income of a mere $36,680 (2006 data), ranking only 18th in the U.S. A free-trade pact with mighty Colombia (2006 income per capita, a whopping $2,740) would surely blow a huge hole in the Keystone State\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s economy.<\/p>\n

    Hillary Clinton, Josh Marshall, and a lot of other \u00e2\u20ac\u0153liberals\u00e2\u20ac\u009d should hang their heads in shame at this disgraceful \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Fuck the Latinos\u00e2\u20ac\u009d campaign strategy.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n

For safety, of course. So the Fox News Channel cameras head to an airport to get the reaction of some of the passengers who were inconvenienced by the delays. In short order they stumble onto some bleached blond who says: “They’re not thinking about us at all … the passengers. I’m never going to fly American again.”<\/p>\n

    Hey, you twit .. .these delays are for safety. Your safety. It is precisely you they are thinking about when they inspect these airplanes. Next time take the damned bus.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    Actually, I would guess a lot of Americans would rather the plane fall out of the sky than be late.<\/li>\n

  • A must-read<\/a> on the food crunch. There was as book some time ago that argued that no famine in the last thousand years has been the result of drought. All resulted from dumb or evil governments.<\/li>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
