If these lenders were really acting out of self interest, they would have done their homework and found out if people could pay back these loans. But, instead, their behavior was corrupted by a meddling Congress who believes it knows banking better than the bankers.

I requested Mr. Milter as a friend on facebook and got this message less than an hour later:

"I appreciate the friend invite. I am sure you are swell guy, most friends of Dandy Andy are....However, I am really on Facebook to meet women. So good luck in finding whatever you may be looking for. Have a great life, buddy,
RM
ps. I noticed you have close to 500 friends. WOW! You must be a really keen fellow. I don't think you need a nerdy Liberal like myself to befriend. But thanks for thinking of me, and go with GOD!"

hahaha

Team America did that very well. Stone and Parker seemed to thoroughly enjoy killing all of the Film Actors Guild actors at the end of the movie. Thanks FAG!

My Grandfather served on ocean tugs in the South Pacific. After the war he commissioned in the Air Force. I too, grew to love the sea and am now studying to me Merchant Marine Officer at the Texas Maritime Academy.
In World War II, per capita, more merchant sailors were lost than in any other service.

Service Number serving War Dead Percent Ratio
Merchant Marine 243,000 9,521 3.90% 1 in 26
Marines 669,108 19,733 2.94% 1 in 34
Army 11,268,000 234,874 2.08% 1 in 48
Navy 4,183,466 36,958 0.88% 1 in 114
Coast Guard 242,093 574 0.24% 1 in 421
Total 16,576,667 295,790 1.78% 1 in 56

The Merchant Marines are the supply line of the Armed Forces as well as the lifeblood of the modern global economy. Not until recently were Merchant Marine Veterans of WWII granted VA benefits... Our role in the world is largely invisible.

I saw this movie last night and I was bored out of my mind... My friends (the girls and one of the boyfriends) were absolutely terrified, but I found the movie to be laughable at best. I want my money back...
