  • I need a new fuel pump right?

    My Mother In Law's Farm Dodge 2500 diesel just stopped running. I think the way she describes what it is not doing (no sound when the key is on) the fuel pump is dead.

    I do most of her mechanic work, but my work load is such that I cannot do it for a few weeks. Any one got a rough idea of the cost of having it done so I can tell her?

  • I wonder how many Americans Obama considers optimal?

    To be murdered by terrorists in Libya. He said that 4 was not optimal, so would 5 or 8 or 12 have been better?

    It is a shame that any Americans were murdered because of the failure of this administration to provide security to our ambassador.

  • Are you muslims proud of Al-Quida?

    The brave heroes of the Prophet shot an unarmed 14 year old little girl down in cold blood on a school bus. That should make every true believer proud. Now they say that she deserves to die for standing up for education.

  • Is this why Unemployment rates are down?

    COSTELLO: I want to talk about the unemployment rate in America .

    ABBOTT: Good Subject. Terrible Times. It's 9%.

    COSTELLO: That many people are out of work?

    ABBOTT: No, that's 16%.

    COSTELLO: You just said 9%.

    ABBOTT: 9% Unemployed.

    COSTELLO: Right 9% out of work.

    ABBOTT: No, that's 16%.

    COSTELLO: Okay, so it's 16% unemployed.

    ABBOTT: No, that's 9%...

    COSTELLO: WAIT A MINUTE. Is it 9% or 16%?

    ABBOTT: 9% are unemployed. 16% are out of work.

    COSTELLO: IF you are out of work you are unemployed.

    ABBOTT: No, you can't count the "Out of Work" as the unemployed. You have to look for work to be unemployed.

    COSTELLO: BUT THEY ARE OUT OF WORK!!!

    ABBOTT: No, you miss my point.

    COSTELLO: What point?

    ABBOTT: Someone who doesn't look for work, can't be counted with those who look for work. It wouldn't be fair.

    COSTELLO: To who?

    ABBOTT: The unemployed.

    COSTELLO: But they are ALL out of work.

    ABBOTT: No, the unemployed are actively looking for work... Those who are out of work stopped looking. They gave up. And, if you give up, you are no longer in the ranks of the unemployed.

    COSTELLO: So if you're off the unemployment roles, that would count as less unemployment?

    ABBOTT: Unemployment would go down. Absolutely!

    COSTELLO: The unemployment just goes down because you don't look for work?

    ABBOTT: Absolutely it goes down. That's how you get to 9%. Otherwise, it would be 16%. You don't want to read about 16% unemployment do ya?

    COSTELLO: That would be frightening.

    ABBOTT: Absolutely.

    COSTELLO: Wait, I got a question for you. That means they're two ways to bring down the unemployment number?

    ABBOTT: Two ways is correct.

    COSTELLO: Unemployment can go down if someone gets a job?

    ABBOTT: Correct.

    COSTELLO: And unemployment can also go down if you stop looking for a job?

    ABBOTT: Bingo.

    COSTELLO: So there are two ways to bring unemployment down, and the easier of the two is to just stop looking for work.

    ABBOTT: Now you're thinking like an economist.

    COSTELLO: I don't even know what the hell I just said!

    And now you know why Obama's unemployment figures are improving!
