i could not agree with you less,however there is a difference between been educated and being learned-an educated person is a semi-ignorant because they cant see beyond their nose,can you make your friend come to lunch with you if they dont?not to talk of your friends

News organizations have to actually report the news not make it up as they go along.

The new York Times is nothing but malicious dribble. Can't wait until they are bought out by Rupert Murdoch.....
