That's about it. Besides that I don't really care about what happens to US so long as you stop messing with the rest of us. I think you'll have to eat the humble pie for certain, and that Obama will keep it at that and not let the country slide down the slope. "Why beat around the Bush anymore?" - I'd rather beat the Bush, or at least throw a shoe at his face. --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
