polymath22 on If a society is judged on how it treats its poor, we would be at the bottom. - A true story that happened to me two hours before this post. - http://www.reddit.com/r...
"i don't know the individual circumstances of this lady and her child, but it sounds similar to a another lady in my town. She would wait at a 4-way stop at the intersection of two busy streets, and walk up to peoples cars and if the door wasn't locked she would open it up and jump in. once inside, she would make a simple request like a ride for a few blocks whichever way the driver was going. once in motion, she would give a story similar to the one described in this story. she always needed money to feed her family, yet somehow i never noticed her or her family at any of the free soup-lines around town, ( and i knew them ALL). Day after day, same place, same scam, until finally the irritated motorists turned her in enough times for the police to do something about it. i try not to have a cold heart, but there are scam artists out there who will cry crocodile tears and accept YOUR last dollar for themselves, and not think anything of it." - polymath22

Blame Czar Bush still a campaign tool for Dem'crats. 10 months under Obama is way worse than 8 years with Bush. Remember 4.5% unemployment? - http://twitter.com/Prolife...
i like this, because it makes me laugh. I do remember low unemployment, but I also remember very high unemployment, under #tcot lord-and-savior, messiah Ronald WILSON Reagan (as @hannityshow likes to put it). Worst unemployment since 1986? WTF, thats like, his SECOND TERM, yet @BarackObama is responsible for unemployment after 10 months? It's also worth mentioning that by this time in the Bush Administration the USA had already been attacked. With Bush as CIC, the FRIGGIN PENTAGON GOT HIT. The most sensitive military target on the PLANET, on the GBW WATCH. Not to mention the economic targets and all those dead people. Keep telling yourself that "Bush Kept Us Safe"... after 911, after Anthrax, after Katrina, after TWO questionable wars. Oh yeah, and the #GWB and #DickCheney KNEE-JERK REACTION TO 911 KILLED MORE AMERICANS THAN EVERY AL QAEDA AND TALIBAN COMBINED. </rant> - polymath22

@polymath22 I hear FriendFeed is slowly dying. Do you use it often? http://ff.im/-azaNn - http://twitter.com/polymat...
as a matter of fact i do. i think it is revolutionary. consider digg or mixx or reddit where users submit ONE link at a time. Friendfeed lets you "submit" entire content streams, like this http://friendfeed.com/iowasoc... - polymath22
