Got Something You Want To Say?

So after all that bullshiet in Congress regarding the debt ceiling and the concomitant political posturing from Republicans, Tea Party nut sacks, and Democrats, the United States still had its credit rating downgraded by Standard & Poor's.

Even a dumb ass with the IQ of wood realizes why the approval rating of Congress is around 14%.

Indeed. This entire debacle was manufactured as a consequence of politics...waiting to see what happens on Monday. If this triggers a rise in interest rates, it will possibly be another factor that might lead us into the feared double dip recession.

Good to hear! :glomp: Any serious radiation issues in Japan? I think I'll be visiting Japan in March.

Just in time for the anniversary of the earthquake and tsunami. That should be a real laugh riot. :crazy:

Sweet. Do you which areas you're going to visit?

She doesn't always take her mittens on the road. If she were to go to, hmmm, let's say Africa, I don't think she'd feel any need to bring along the mittens.

Since it's Japan in March, she'll probably need her mittens, huh?

Well it's a tour so probably the places I've already been to. :grumble: Still, not complaining.

I get to go on two, and also a hunting trail. But the majority of the two weeks there is to do humanitarian work. I'll be working in schools and the teachers there, and also helping to build orphanages and work in some of the clinics.

Wow. Impressive. Are you going to be on any National Geographic specials. ;)

Hope you have a splendid time while you're out there doing good work.

You still won't need mittens, but I would recommend a real good pair of work gloves!! :say_gdluck:
