I know Lloyd...A good deal of us are already having a rough go of it, and it sure appears that it's only going to get worse. I just hope this OPEC thing doesn't end up burrying us even further. Just imagine what will happen if gas is changed to Euros, which is already well over 50% higher than our nosediving dollar. We could literally watch gas go from the projected $4-5 dollar/gal mark up to near $8 per gallon! Toss that on top of the food and job situation and there is a making of total collapse for the middle and poor classes, who are already on the brink.

I'm not a Zionist, but I believe firmly in Israel's right to exist, and its right to self defense. They're also the only western style democracy in a region where little has changed in governance/ideologies since the Crusades.


Does Israel's right of "self-defense" include bombing Gazan, Lebanese and Syrian civilians whenever they wish to ?

Thanks, DD, i appreciate that; Star back at ya!
and thanks for my first-ever Flag!

You've always got good points to say, and i couldn't agree more.

Mess with a person's money, they get a little skittish; Mess with POOR
people's money, and, my goodness, what have they got to lose?

Sad, sad times, now, and like you said, and getting worse.
