I challenge you to find any country similar in prosperity to the US in cost of living, wages, etc. that is experiencing better growth.
What type of factories. I know for a fact that furniture industry in Lexington, NC(which is my example) is shutting down. At one time it drove the city but now only 1 full plant is operational.

I don't call this growth. It's a very SLOW growth if it is. kinda like a Oak Tree.

As far as you challenge, a broken arm is better than a broken neck, but I still don't want to experience it.

A) WMD. I did show you proof and even you showed us proof saying the US along with other countries supplied Iraq with WMD materials. Hence, at the end of the day Iraq had it. You keep bringing this us as if you don't understand a very simple point, they had it and nobody denies it!

B) You have absolutely no idea on anything to do with Economics. You haven't answered the question. It must be too damn difficult for you boy.

A) you know darn well what I was talking about. But let's not bring that back up. It wasn't one of your better moments.

B) look I didn't have to attend a economics class to know that people have less in their pockets in 2004 then what they have in 2000. People are complaining, but I'm not worried, ya boy will be leaving office in a few weeks. Maybe you can come to DC to help him move back to Texas, or you can sit there and help Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter spin the election and how Kerry cheated.


Oh just in case you forgot, this is where you throw out a insult or something of that nature.


It's really no fun Rudey.
