6 AnswersAir Travel1 decade agoHome repossessions (bad loans) are the root of economic crisis so why exclude Bankruptcy courts from solution?
The main sticking point seems to be the administration's insistence that Bankruptcy courts not be permitted to adjust terms of existing bad loans. Yet this is the core of the problem. What gives? This seems so political.
3 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWas Romney's home purchase in La Jolla, CA a precursor to a gubernatorial run when the governator terms out?
Or could it be a team effort for a McCain-Romney ticket to collectively own more homes than any other running mates in history?
4 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhy so little about the nuclear leak from a sub near Japan and another in facility near Vienna. Safe energy?
It's all about energy this week but nothing about very serious concerns over safety in two nuclear mishaps. And too few links between the nasty fuel spill on the Mississippi River last week and McCain canceling his visit to an offshore rig near New Orleans. And no mention of the remarkable research results on storing solar energy announced by MIT scientists. It's just drill, drill, drill.

15 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoIs Barach Obama a member of the elite? Compliment or smear? Presidential prerequisite?
Elitism is the belief or attitude that those individuals who are considered members of the elite — a select group of people with outstanding personal abilities, intellect, wealth, specialized training or experience, or other distinctive attributes — are those whose views on a matter are to be taken the most seriously or carry the most weight; whose views and/or actions are most likely to be constructive to society as a whole; or whose extraordinary skills, abilities or wisdom render them especially fit to govern [1].

15 AnswersElections1 decade agoHear McCain try to explain surge as a variant part of speech of "counter inSURGEncy"? Oh how pathetic...
White House word smiths coined the term "troop surge" announced by President Bush on 1/10/07 so none would be reminded of LBJ's escalation of the war in Vietnam. McCain did not remember and tried to fumble his way out of an error he made while criticizing Obama by trying to explain this new definition. Why don't people in his campaign have enough compassion for him to stop him from doing these stupid things? Yes I feel sorry for McCain when he does these dumb things but not enough to vote for him.
1 AnswerCurrent Events1 decade agoMcCain axed trip to NOLA oil rig due to Dolly, actually at TexMex border: So why no press qestions?
His promotion of off shore drilling wouldn't have played well in the neighborhood of a nasty and smelly oil spill on the Mississippi River and imagine the ugly graphics -- dead birds and all. Why didn't our press question this lame excuse? NOLA weather that day had a half inch of rain -- for NO a drizzle - but in Brownsville Texas, where Dolly actually made landfall, there was 5.68 inches of rain. The press may love Obama but they sure give McCain a free pass.

5 AnswersOther - News & Events1 decade agoWhat is an excellent beef roast that is symmetrical for oven rotisserie comparable to prime rib for feast?
Want to use rotisserie but it only works with symmetrical cuts. This is for 14 people and has to be great quality (like standing rib roast) for Christmas dinner. Maybe this is misguided and rotisserie is not better than roasting. Any chefs or butchers have advice?
