14. Rep."2 kinds of FRUIT"

sure would like to see him enjoying the amenities of gitmo.
I'm just sayin'

[TahitiNut]

15. I think the key words are "to foreign governments."

We have "China, Inc." owning national assets of the US. We have the Monarchy of Dubai purchains P&O and its contract to manage and operate terminal facilities. These aren't merely companies incorporated in some foreign country and owned by private citizens there and around the world. These are extensions of autocratic regimes.

4. Doesn't Karl get tired of changing screen names to vote

on Lou's polls. For weeks now it has been the same 2%. Who are these people.

[madokie]

6. thats strange after I voted it was still 1167 votes

so I guess they are not recording any new votes, 98% pretty telling

[rodeodance]

7. 1,149 votes say Yes

[NoMercy]

8. U.S. Has used military power to enforce U.S. corporate ownership

of assets in "foreign" countries thoughtout the world.
But, that is OK, since the U.S. companies are not Gov. owned
it is fine to kill thousands to enforce this.

Does the NeoCon imperialist mentality have no bounds?

[Lost-in-FL]

23. don't forget the CIA

16. Manufacturing is a strategic asset. Maybe we should stop

offshoring and require domestic content for all essential goods.

That will force all companies that do business in the US to make at least part of their goods here.

[Mr_Spock]

18. LMAO - holy friggin shite!! Dumbya stepped in a BIG pile of doodoo !!

Dayum, I know Lou's polls tend to be one-sided, but this is WAY one-sided!!

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

19. The same 33 saying no

I think the last poll of this nature yielded 34 on the NO side. Hmmm...either someone at the WH is sick today and couldn't post, or they've lost count.

The haves and the have mores don't care if America is attacked or not, because they believe it will be another Bush/GOP trifecta, in time for the mid-term election heist! They hate America, but they love their money!
