Two multinational corporations controlling the beer choices of 300 million Americans. And it’s not just beer. One single multinational corporation dominates the world supply of eyeglass stores.

The funny thing was Fox trotting out Rudy Guliani to try and say Sandy was same as Katrina, trying to spin and spin it that Sandy was somehow a big failure on the part of Obama and at the same time Fox was trying to sell and sell and sell Bengazi as Carter with the Iranian hostage crisis. They were trying to make Obama into Carter and Romney into Reagan, didn't work. They just make up anything, any negative made up story to sell. They need to get off of the Bengazi story. They are not doing themselves any favors. 4,000 died under Bush's watch. They need to give up on the fake stories and the hate stories.
Laura Ingrim said that Bush was soooooo bad that he couldn't even go to the Republican convention. That says it all. One of their own saying their own is so bad she hates him. They have NOTHING left to sell.

I'm no supporter of Inbred, but syntax is important, you should change your name to reflect what you mean, as it is it means the opposite of what you want. A unintentional wrong key happens all the time, but spelling is important, especially in this age of spell check. It's not that hard.

I came across some interesting info about AIG that some may be interested in. http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/business/c... "Though its name is American, the company is rooted in Asia. According to company lore, its founder, Cornelius Vander Starr, a World War I veteran, traveled to Asia with only 300 Japanese yen (less than $3 today) in his pocket and started the firm in Shanghai in 1919. With a partner, he sold marine and fire insurance and expanded rapidly throughout the Philippines, Indonesia and China by hiring locals as agents and managers, a business strategy A.I.G. uses today. Nearly half of A.I.G.’s 116,000 direct employees — about 62,000 people — are in Asia." ---------- Great, the US is BAILING OUT a Company where Over Half the employees live in Asia. Why didn't those other affected countries pitch in????
