I suggest she start by donating her home as a place that the Mexicans can live. Have you seen how many people they can pack into a room? She can also provide them income by ensuring they are gainfully employed by the local wineries and paying their taxes. At that point I would begin taking her seriously and listening to her.

I am always skeptical of anything that starts off with "you arent going to believe this..."

I'd add that Warren Buffett, philanthropist and the worlds almost richest person, contribute one half of his entire wealth to the national treasury, then one half of his remaining wealth to charity, then one half of that remaining wealth to sending a check to each and every citizen of the U.S., then one half of the remaining wealth to me, then Warren would still have more money than he or his heirs could spend in their lifetime.

Warren Buffett would like Obama to be president.

I'd guess that he promised him Fed Chairman or something.

Yea. I wonder what he promised M. Bloomberg.

I read what Snopes had to say.

However

I remember an interview Pelosi had with someone on tv after the election and before she was speaker. She said essentially that the minorities, illegals and other unfortunates would be taken care of by taxing excess profits. I don't recall her mentioning anything but "Wall Street" and windfall. I would bet this interview is somewhere on myspace?

She scared the crap out of me then and even more so now.

I've often wondered what they mean by "excess profits". In my opinion this is a worrisome two words.

I am no fan of Pelosi. The bitch is ubber crazy. With that said, I hate pass along emails that are fake or mislead.

She is a psycho bitch who would probablly vote for such a thing though.

Is myspace a place you would normally look for this sort of thing?

I wonder who Soros wants. I can make a guess.
