Democrats, prepare to get your clocks cleaned next year.

I hope enough Americans have gotten a good enough view of the liberal agenda to realize it is not what the USA is or ever has been about. I hope those that voted these self centered socialists into office will remember that for a long time to come. Why in the world they want to make the US like the fools in Europe who are now abandoning socialism because even they realize it is a failure I can't fathom. Is the average liberal so dense that they can't learn from others mistakes. Must they screw up our country only to prove that no they can't make socialism work any better than the Europeans and so many others who failed before them? Are they really so arrogant to think that they are the magic cog that will finally make it work this time? If so they are at least partially right... yes that's right they are cogs. If you like socialism so much go to a socialist country and get the hell out of the US of A.

Gmail wish

I wish that Gmail would allow more options for the maximum page size. This is the setting that determines how many conversations to display on a page. The problem for me is that the minimum they allow is 25. On both of my notebooks 25 messages will not fit on my screen and I'm therefore forced to scroll to get to any of the messages past the bottom of the screen. Now I realize that doesn't really seem like a big deal and truth to be told it probably isn't. BUT... if they are going to bother to have such a setting why don't they either give you more options or allow you to input your own number within certain limits? I have to think that since I'm on a MacBook and another full size notebook that anyone using a netbook can fit even less on the screen and it seems from what I've read that a lot of netbooks have been selling lately. I submitted this as a suggestion via Google's suggestions page - http://mail.google.com/support/bin/static.py?page=suggestions.cs - but so far no feedback or progress.

Maybe Santa will bring me this for Christmas? I can dream can't I?

Be a Patriot: Pay Up!

Subsidize Bad Behavior?

Have to agree with this one 100% Why in the hell should people be bailed out when they made a decision they knew was a bad one while those of us who paid our mortgages and sacrificed other things like vacations, cars, etc. to do so foot the bill. This is plain old wealth redistribution (socialism/communism/you decide). Which begs the question, why should I work hard any longer and pay all my bills when my neighbor doesn't and the government simply bails him out (with my tax dollars no less).
