Eric, thanks, it is nice to be missed.

And who should care that 1700 weapons are allowed to go to Mexico
and be used to kill a couple hundred humans.... 2 being Americans.
This must not be news because Fox is the only one asking about it.

We were in the 3-6 band on last nights weather forecast.
As of 7am about 2" on th lawn a barely white driveway and a full day of school. Hope we at least get enogh to try out the new snowblower.

Eric, Trump is an interesting candidate, I like alot of what he says, he thinks way outside the box compared to a professional politician. I also see some similarities between him and our previous govenor Jesse Ventura. Jesse had some great ideas while campaining but once he got into office he abandoned them for more traditional politics as usual. Both are narcicists, Jesse could not take criticism, and eventually melted down from negative media attention. Rather than fighting with career politician he spent the second half of his term fighting with the media "Jackels". We cannot afford to have an ineffective president for the next term. It is a tough question to answer.

As for japan , it is a mess, from a foriegn policy standpoint I think we would have goten a bigger bang for our billion bucks helping Japan clean up their nuke plant than we will from throwing a ffew hundred tomahawks at Lybia. That would be a humanitarian effort.

Barrack is proving that experience counts when selecting a president. He had none, and it shows. Can anyone state what his foregien policy is? He makes stuff up on the fly, and then it is all reactionary and slow. He is not a leader. His actions have no guiding principles.

Speaking af guiding principles how about Michele Bachman. No fear,she follows her principles and is very consistant in her message. She does not pander for votes. Like Reagan she would rather advocate her position to change the polls than change her position in reaction to them.

I saw a clip of Trump this morning stating that we had to stay in Iraq or else Iran will invade, which he's probably right about, but then he went on to say we had to take over their oil fields and pay ourselves and our alleys back with oil. Eric, how do you think that would go over?

It amazed me too, Larry. Especially that the majority of people said they wanted a moderate that could work with both sides, which McCain was, and with all his experience. Presidential elections are nothing more than popularity contests.

How about politics and religion? On march 20th pastor Terry Jones (the guy who threatened to burn 20 korans on the aniversary of 911 sparking riots in islam countries) of Florida holds a moch trial for the koran in Florida, finds it guilty and has an internet pole to determine the korans sentence, it gets burned and a video posted. The media for a change does not allow itself to get used and ignores the whole thing, the video gets less than 2000 views. A week later during Friday prayers, President Hamid Karzai denounces the incidient and calls for Pastor jones to be arrested (Koran burning in the US is "protected speech" and not illegal). The call is picked up in mosks in Afghanistan and by Friday night twelve are dead at the UN headquartes in Kandahar, this Mornig 8 more dead and 61 injured in rioting. Who is responsible for the deaths of these 20 people? Should they be charged and held responsible?

I keep seeing these commercials about directional drilling....pretty much a no brainer, set up in ifukistan and steal the sht

Eric, you have such a jaded outlook,LOL. I'm more of an isolationist, but we need leaders that got some experience prior to putting them in office. Two years before OBama was elected, he was a State rep. Do you know any of your State reps? Do you think their ready for the White House? BTW, I like Obama. I just think he's not up to the job.

you mean he is a closet white supremacist?
