@gasmurrin WEll Obama did give the rich the biggest tax breaks in the History of the United states! Look it up in the San Francisco Chronicle.

@Biscuitchris7again are you seriously trying to point out a connection between the financial crisis and the democraitc party?

In my view that is ridicolous, already in the year 2005 there was a FBI report warning of a "catastrophe" in the financial sector. whose administration was that under?

Anyway watch Capitalism a Love Story, if you dont like michael moore or his style of movies fine, but listen to some facts in there.

Korea is a result of US interference and meddling, so are all the others, go home and mind your own business

I'm not exactly sure. They were only "suspended" from country when I was there. I know now they have changed their name to Xe and focus mainly on training.

Here in Afghanistan they also do flights from base to base either with rotary or fixed wing called "Stol" flights. These are not combat flights, just transporting people and supplies.

Vancouver B.C. Canada. I was working as a News cameraman. We both worked for BCTV News together. They were people at the station that did not think she would do well as a reporter. I was behind her all the way! Now look at her in Washington...good on you Kimberly

@dustinwrye

Did Blackwater ever get kicked out of Iraq? I know that the Iraq Gov. tried to get them out based on war crimes and such but I never heard if it happened.
