Whether you agree or not, it's a big deal for any American to win this prize. Where's the pride of unity?

It appears that those who are liberal in their political views would want to change almost everything in government. Our country has been greater, more peaceful, and more bountiful in the past. Does it not make sense that we should try to conserve much of what this country was founded on/for? A conservative government should be one that allows peace and safety to reign in our country and let everyone liberally do as they please. Too often liberals want government to get involved in things like healthcare and retirement only to find out that even more of their own freedom is being taken away. I will conclude that though I don't agree with much of what liberals stand for in government, I do not see this country divided as our media likes it to appear. We can and must co-exist to show others what freedom is. Freedom is not allowing the government to get involved in too many aspects of its' peoples lives. Respect one another--even idiotic conservatives--it will become contagious!.

What can be done to narrow that gap? Wasn't trickle down economics supposed to prevent this from occuring?

Don't you find it odd that only one news station is trustworthy. Isn't it a little far out that if something doesn't agree with your interpretation of something that it is liberal and is can just be written off? Do you find anything unusual that an elected official whom you support for years suddenly becomes liberal when they lose your trust and credibility?

Gore got into Harvard because his father was a prominent U.S. senator. (When George W. Bush got into Yale, his father was a comparative unknown -- a mere congressman, on the verge of losing his first race for Senate. He was a Yale alumnus, but so were a lot of other boys' parents.)

Gore continued his mediocre performance at Harvard, ranking in the bottom fifth of the class for his first two years. In his sophomore year, the Post reports: "Gore's grades were lower than any semester recorded on Bush's transcript from Yale."

Gore could not complete either divinity school or law school at Vanderbilt, failing five of the eight classes he took in his three semesters at divinity school. Exactly how many classes do you have to fail to be called dumb, if you're a Democrat?

Meanwhile, the “Dumb Guy” was earning his MBA from Harvard.

They may wear cowboy hats or work on a ranch. They may live in a trailer park or out in the country. Regardless, they are stereotyped.

I believe that because of this, these people who engage in this kind of behavior are cut from precisely the same cloth as racists and bigots.

What say you?

Here is a hint . . . the two guys that were at the forefront of the march to war in Iraq.

President Gerald R. Ford signs a presidential directive giving the Iranian government the opportunity to purchase a US-built nuclear reprocessing facility for extracting plutonium from nuclear reactor fuel. Iran, with support from the US, wants to develop a massive nuclear energy industry that has complete “nuclear fuel cycle” capability so fissile materials can be supplied self-sustaining basis. US companies, chief among them Westinghouse, stands to make $6.4 billion from the sale of six to eight nuclear reactors and parts. The shah has argued that Iran needs a nuclear energy program in order to meet Iran’s growing energy demand. Iran is known to have massive oil and gas reserves, but the shah considers these finite reserves too valuable to be spent satisfying daily energy needs. In a 1975 strategy paper, the Ford administration supported this view saying that “introduction of nuclear power will both provide for the growing needs of Iran’s economy and free remaining oil reserves for export or conversion to petrochemicals.” Top officials in the Ford administration—including Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, Chief of Staff Dick Cheney, and Paul Wolfowitz, who is responsible for nonproliferation issues at the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency—are strong supporters of Iran’s ambitions

Other than suing for defamation of character how do you put a stop to this? She is very distraught that she can't get the reference she expected out of them now. She was their top performer and her boss was threatened by her. He is telling employees she was reason for companies current situation - completely untrue.

I guess the second part of the question is - how to distance yourself from that garbage and move on when the lay off and harsh words leave you beat down and paralized?
