urcrazy I don't know of anyone who can afford to work for free especially with the economic crises. The companies that aren't laying off are cutting hours and/or wages, so a lot of people are trying to find 2nd & 3rd jobs just to be able to keep up with their bills.

What's wrong with this picture? Americans do not bow to royalty. In my view, when the royal is the ruling tyrant of a despotic regime, the wrong is compounded. Putting aside the breach of American protocol, It is akin to Jimmy...

urcrazy Sheer ignorance? Well, think about how oblivious he was to his surroundings prior to entering the Presidential race. He had no clue what his church is about, sat there every Sunday for how many years and had no clue what the sermons were about. Then there were...

urcrazy cjrwells Your post is rude, hateful and vicious. You have no right to attack someone else like that. This forum is for people to discuss their opinions whether you agree with them or not. It is not a place for you to viciously attack others.

Yep once again this christmas they are attaching a camera to the poor dog so that people can see the white house from "his" perspective" and the christmas decorations. Why do they do this to the poor thing. Did any of you watch...

urcrazy Wouldn't it be easier to just have someone give a tour of the White House with a camera crew. I did not know they attach a camera to a dog, don't think I would want to see it. It does seem cruel.

It is a good thing that we have one of those artificial Christmas trees. About a week ago, my younger son brought us a Poinsettia, so I put it on the photo table, but the leaves are now falling off, and even the red petals are...

urcrazy A poinsettia needs at least 6 hours of indirect sunlight per day. 68 to 30 degrees is the perfect temperature for it. Water it when the soil feels dry, do not keep it moist.

urcrazy I think a third choice would be a great idea. Then we could have an independent candidate to consider. That would enable to to have Real change. It's sad that neither party could come up with a better choice this year.

urcrazy If you don't want the country to have to depend on someone who lacks common sense, then you surely can't be voting for Obama. After attending his own church for 20 years, he didn't have enough sense to know what the pastors sermons were about. He also didn't...
