Brazil has a growing middle class and creates new millionaires every day. GDP Growth rate of 7% +... and we (on the other hand) won't allow drilling in the gulf, Alaska or anywhere else it can be stopped, a Keystone pipeline, but are "loaning" Brazil millions to create offshore drilling platforms to buy their oil - so sayeth president Obama... wants us to be their biggest customer.
That is indefensible.

The evil, racist Japanese imperial army did kill, rape, murder their way across China, Burma, the Philippine Islands... These things should be known, but the irony here is that Bale wasn't aware much about these things until somebody shoved a script in front of him to read and told him they'd pay him a boatload of money to do this movie.

Maybe the next text that Bale should read would include the truth of mass murders of Chinese by Chinese.. like Mao and his cronies. The purges, the re-education camps, the killing of the human spirit by COMMUNISTS... and don't forget the current crop of political prisoners and the ongoing repression of Christians.

Absolutely! I'd trade Obama + the entire DNC and throw in Mrs. Obama free for Daniel Hannan... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94lW6Y4tBXs

An amazing speaker, principled guy.

Can anyone explain why there are any awards to "actresses"? All the time you hear these actresses claiming to be an "actor"... (another obnoxious term is their "craft")...

Would any of these female "actors" refuse the academy award for best "actress". Just shows the PC gone wild
mentality of these drones.

She's also one of the democrat geniuses that pushed Pakistan to become "democratic" - result of Musharraf being ousted, Benazir Bhutto getting murdered and more instability. The Taliban are more of a threat to them than ever and the place is a mess. Thanks a lot Mrs. C. There's a "thought leader" for you.

he's right about the "unsustainable" part, except his administration is the problem that's unsustainable.

can we get the Russians to build one here too?

typical dim wits in government... nickle and dime taxes are the sure signs of political cowardice. How about some actual CUTS in government?

What does FLOUR have to do with anything taxable? Who dreams up this garbage???

"the FBI must sustain our overseas contingency operations" What the?? These people are so p.c. it's scary.

Mr. Taylor got it wrong. The leader of this group was intereviewed today and he isn't "giving back" to the govt. They're simply still suffering from Bush Derangement Syndrome. No money is going into the government. They're simply still p.o.'d about the Bush tax cuts and are sending their money to left wing organizations to set the tax rate back to before Bush. Because, they think that that number is fair.
When trying to pin the guy down as to what number would be "fair" for tax payers to pay - he couldn't answer. This is just a bunch of whiney, spoiled jerks who want to get noticed for something they're not even doing.
hypcritical, left wingers... what else do you expect?
