    Well, my computer isn't going to play it. I know it has something to do
    with the election.

    Hi Ms. RoJo,

    It really is better to save ones pennies. The U.S. Treasury would be $10 billion dollars richer without pennies.

    Did you know that a loaf of bread in Zimbabwe costs $16 million dollars in local currency? With the inflation rate at over 100,000% I am baffled when President Thabo Mbeki of South Africa says that there is no crisis in Zimbabwe. What has the guy been smoking?

    *Protagoras: "Truth is subjective. What is true for you, and what is true for me, is true for me. Your opinion is true by virtue of its being your opinion."

    *Socrates: "My opinion is: Truth is absolute, not opinion, and that you are in absolute error. Since this is my opinion, then according to your philosophy you must grant that it is true."

    I will say this. This is the sign of the times. They are getting short
    and we have just very few more years left. Read the book of
    revelations in your bible. An ounce of wheat now cost a dollar in
    the flour that we make the bread with. Look up the Native American
    calenders from the Astex, and the mayan tribal people. I can see
    it myself even as a christian. It doesn't matter who we elect for the
    next president of the United States. President Bush now has his
    hands tied because of the government. Every time we do get a real
    good leader or president he gets killed in cold blood. That's politics!

    Great a humorous political satire ... I'm sure this is how either major party here would like it to go ... especially the lame idi ... ... ... well, I won't go there. Sure will be glad when November comes and goes ... There is more to life that these stupid elections .

    As for the penny, it should be eliminated - round up everything to the nearest nickel. But then, the government would spend that windfall on more pork barrel projects <sigh>.

    I finally got to see the video. It removed all of my doubt that these
    elections are fixed. Us voters have been lied to.
