Re: Greece........................Sink or Swim?

The can has been kicked down the road as far as it can go. The Eurozone will be downsized. Greece cannot be saved. It's a toss-up as to who will be next in line.

Re: Mitt Romney

I, too, was a supporter of Herman Cain. Although Romney was not my first choice, he'll do. The thought of President Slash n' Burn getting another four years is scary. He is very anti-American. ...

Re: There'll be no Palin in the White House

Thank you darlin'. But don't expect me to make a habit of it because I'm so busy these days and haven't the time to spare.

By the way, I am not here to defend Mrs. Palin - or anyone else for...

Re: There'll be no Palin in the White House

1. I'll grant you that the Couric interview was very bad. Palin was not prepared for national media, which cuts you no slack if you are a member of the Republican party.

2. She was absolutely...

Re: There'll be no Palin in the White House

Actually, those who listened to the JFK/Nixon debate on the radio thought Nixon won hands down. But he didn't come across very well on t.v. because he wasn't feeling well that evening and looked...

Re: There'll be no Palin in the White House

I believe Mrs. Palin is exactly where she wants to be right now. The best of both worlds, you might say. Since 2008 she has become a best selling author and has built a successful and very...

Re: What a diference 75 years make

Any country that has spent decades fostering a national culture of entitlement should not be surprised to discover that sizeable portions of its population can no longer cope with adversity of any...

Re: 2011 Census

I agree with Margaret.

The purpose of a census is to count heads. Period. In the past, any additional questions asked were of a simple nature, limited to such things as age, sex, place of...

Re: Middle East Meltdown ...

I am not confident that any of the countries in question will become bastions of democratic liberty. Even those young Facebook loving Egyptians who demonstrated in Tahrir Square and Alexandria may...

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment

I haven't seen the finished product. It was still being renovated when I visited last March. Whilst a full service bar and some comfortable seating would not be a bad thing, it isn't exactly in...

Re: Actress Susannah York dead

Oh, that is sad to hear. She had bone cancer, didn't she?

I saw The Killing of Sister George at the Belasco Theater in New York, December, 1966. Beryl Reid played George - for which she won...

Re: How do you feel?

Governments need to get out of the "charity" business. Far better that we as individuals decide where our money should go. I like the one on one approach. I only support organizations that I am...

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment

Perhaps it was your nemesis, The Harrogate Tripe Dresser, Walter. Hope you plan to lodge a complaint regarding the errors, not to mention the lack of attribution.

They were still working on the...

Re: Voting for Christian in Politics

Wow. What a debut! I had no idea that the Almighty could elicit such passion in The County Palatine.

Got to agree with garinda. This is not the way to attract support for your candidate. ...

Re: New NHS report

It depends very much on what sort of coverage you desire. There are 1,700 insurance companies in the U.S. offering a wide variety of plans. Some are quite restrictive, others are not. And some...

Re: New NHS report

This is far from the first thread to have taken a detour. That tends to happen during the course of any conversation.

Re: Nobel peace prize

I hope that's not the only thing they are "cheesed off" about. I told you last year that this guy had Marxist leanings. Convinced yet?

Re: Nobel peace prize

Neither party had a "best" choice candidate last year.

Those who oppose him based upon the color of his skin are a fringe minority indeed. In fact, the word racism is so overused today that...
