Once again, friends, I have already heard the emotional, hateful
arguments. Where are the facts? Don't keep sending me notes of emotion
about somebody taking away our cheap ride. Send me some facts I can
digest. I can be as selfish as the next person, but I try not to be so
obvious about it. I am really concerned about the liberal slant some of
these arguments are taking. I don't really care if you can use the
Innernet around the clock for penneys! I want to make sue thatthe right
thing is going to be done and right now all I am hearing is junk. Does
anybody really know and care what is going on? Where are you?
