I was taught to always leave a campsite cleaner than it was when I found it.

It's hard to have any respect for anyone who would do this.
When your group is built on "to each according to his needs, from each according to his ability", you'll find nobody has the ability to take out the trash.

Fatty
Karl,
Loans from the Fed window must be secret or the capital markets would destroy the borrowing firm.
I thought markets were supposed to have valid information to be real and efficient
Those banks claimed to their shareholders they were doing fine and dandy while at the same time receiving secret bailouts from the Gov.
Remember when Enron was saying everything was great just before they crashed and took their employee's life-saving pensions with them
Foul, shame
Peace
Karl

3:40am City Hall can't fix the roads or shelter homeless, but damn can they close down a park. ~pj
LAPD demonstrated how to do this. Peaceful, controlled, overwhelming force.

"Fattad: Do you think Obama will beat Romney in an Electoral Landslide?"
Obama couldn't win by landslide numbers when he ran against McCain-Palin. That was before we knew what a skunk he is.
Take the bet, Fattrad.

Not every presidental victory is a "landslide", Norton. Look it up.
As far as I can tell, Warren Harding, both Roosevelts, Johnson, Nixon and Reagan were the only presidents to win by landslide margins.

I never said "every" election is a landslide, you did, and you were wrong to do so.
However,
Senator Obama won the presidency with 365 electoral votes versus Senator McCain’s 173.
That is a whipping, a thumping, a "landslide"
Imagine what the margin would have been if only McCain had been Black

Norton,
If Obama ever earns 500 electoral votes ( Nixon - Reagan numbers ), then we'll be talking landslide.
365 doesn't make the list.
