But I would gather wrong, wouldn't I? There isn't a member of the NAM that isn't eager to get cheap Chinese to do their manufacture.

I posted a comment last night critical of Fred Thompson, and of NAM's so-far support of his potential candidacy. I wasn't nasty or profane, but I was clear - I think his candidacy is a bad idea, and so is NAM's support of him. Do you see that comment anywhere? But then, will anyone see THIS comment either? If you always read what you've always read, then you'll only know what you already know, and will never learn anything new. Please tell me that NAM members don't consider the above a GOOD thing? Well, I see how “fair and balanced” this site and its comment section are.

Over there is Hillary. I say there is McCain and who is that? Oh yes, the other Thompson. . .Tommy. Yup they are all here. Oh look who's at the bar. A couple of Terrorists. Then there is Putin drinking with George. They would be at the table but Bush will buy all the pots and let our childrens childrens children pay for them. Just when it is not expected there is the thump of some mighty big boots. Hell, the man fills the door way. A booming deep voice and a stern face say, "Mind if I take a hand folks." Good God! Palms and mouths go dry, folks start fingering their chips and a weak voice say's, "Sorry Sir, this is a closed game" You must register first. All faces looked at each other, even the Terrorists looked up. The big man smiled a closed mouth crooked knowing all smile and said, "Oh, that's all right. I'm not spending my money yet anyway. I see you folks are running through your chips however and your horses look mighty weary out there. My horse is rested. Makes sense to have a fit horse in a good race.Well see ya all down the road." Then he turned to the Terrorists and said, "Git" Was that MyManFred.com ? It is a large poker table. Over there is Hillary. I say there is McCain and who is that?
