Here's another brief history of the Bush family, and their links to the creation of arms trade, dating back to the period immediately after the Civil War in the United States. This was put together for the 2004 election.

Their links to fascism and self-interest death trade are well known. Anyone who believes otherwise probably also doubts climate change and the spherical shape of planet earth.

Talk to people in Chile? OK, lets. Maybe also stop over in El Salvador or Nicaragua or the Dominican Republic or any other place that the U.S. has supplanted self-determination with puppet reichs. They'll all tell you how much this reminds them of the fascism the US helped to unleash in their countries, and how they wish it would go away.

Yeah, and be sure to drop the name Pinochet a few times...you know, the dictator that the CIA installed into power after helping to assassinate the elected socialist, Allende? Watch for the flicker of joy in their eyes. I'm sure they'll even say thank you. Not.

How bout we stop trying to be cowboys about this kind of crap - as we seem to export a lot of it - and evolve. It isn't acceptable, it creates hatred and hatred creates violence.

No one twisted Joe Friday's arm into taking a job that may involve being shot at, but presumably he knew the risks. If he didn't, he shouldn't be carrying a gun.

Reciprocity should simply remind the Americans that their business people aren't needed in locales such as Brazil, India and China....you know, where there are markets that European businesses can sell to.
I love it when capitalism eats itself.

Agree with 67 and 68. And the LOLCAT/de-voweling crap is so 2007.

Interestingly, no comments on the changed market for flight services in the US. Private/charter/fractional owner flights up significantly, including privatized airports. Reduced seats for poor and middle class. Unions broken and plane service outsourced. If you don't like it, you don't really have any alternatives as consolidation has effectively removed competition. (As intended but that's a different subject). Oh, you can drive your car if you like. For now. Ah yes, the nirvana of free market capitalism.

And not surprisingly, the technoscenti commenting here are not particularly supportive of anyone who speaks out against such anti-consumer behavior.

Will you feel the same when your ISP cuts you off because the government doesn't like what you are reading? Stand up now, because you won't get the opportunity later.

Mr. Greenbaum, if you are reading, your public complaint has succeeded in preventing another customer from using Midwest. Midwest, if you are reading, your corporation's behavior is unacceptable, and I will refrain from using your services (and evengalize others not to) until you publicly apologize and make good on this. End.
