Perhaps the inclination for vomiting was not the flag, per se - but that it was SO LARGE, and thus reflected the "Super-Patriot" idealogy, i.e., the bigger my flag is, the more that people can see I am patriotic. Now the problem is, a lot of these types of folks wave the flag in public, but trample it in private. Disgraceful.

Pet Peeves thread...
by Brummie inthis kinda thread has probably been done before... someone phones me at work and when i say hello they say "hold on" and start talking to someone else, they dont tell me who they are and i'm hanging on hearing them chat to someone who is with them on the other end, 5 mins later they introduce themselves and tell me what they want.
that is a pet peeve.. another, for example, go to the fridge and both tubs of butter are open and both blocks of cheese instead of finishing one off and then opening the other.
thats just a small pet peeve but its one none the less.. miserable sod arnt i though?.

That happens to us here at work all the time. I just hang up on 'em. I figure, they must not think that what they called about was very important, so - BUH BYE.

The Americans were bad people and good people at the same time way back when.
Just like today. Hmmm...

Good point, Simon! Ya see, folks - being locked up away from the rest of society IS THE PUNISHMENT. Not inhumane living conditions. Should hardened criminals be treated "softly"? No; but they shouldn't be subjected to poor treatment above and beyond what they're already experiencing.

Happens to the best of us...just like all those people who bought tickets to Farenheit 911- duped into thinking it was a documentary...not realizing Moore was telling the "truth" but not the TRUTH! I point to the HAVES AND HAVE MORES Comment as one example among many.
Oh, DO edify us!
Please, list everything in Mr. Moore's movie that was a falsehood. And be sure to back up your claims with facts.

This thread title is a bit misleading.
It was only the archdiocese in Portland, Oregon that filed for bankruptcy - no the entire Catholic Church. Believe me, it would take much more to empty THOSE coffers!

You seem to ignore the fact that "trickle down" works. The entire reason the economy has recovered...the strongest growth in 20 years mind you...is because of "trickle down." Taxes were cut meaning people had more money to spend...which means more jobs...which means more money in the economy...which means growth...which means more jobs...etc etc etc.
You're hatred of the rich is amusing...how many jobs have you received from a poor person?
You seem to want to support the democrats who think that government spending is the road to prosperity...YIKES!
The... logic of this post ... is... staggering... BWAH HAHAHAHAH!!!
"Trickle-down" or Reagan-omics - by whatever name, ONLY WORKS FOR THOSE NEAR THE TOP OF THE TRICKLE.
Thanks - come again!
