Hankie, that memo you cited is 8.5 years old.


Are you regressing backwards too?


Be careful you don't bump into Johnny in your race to the past.




Don, Hank didn't post the memo.



What difference does the age make...nothing's changed. Do you want Sharia government in Canada?

Mexican government? Have you worked up a set of gonads yet?


Grow up.

I apologize wholeheartedly for presenting old data to you.
You'll be happy to know that the 2013 data has your unemployment rate
skyroketing to 9 %. What the hell is going on up there?

Don...please put some context in your posts. I don't read FlaJim's potty
dumps, so I have no idea what you are referring to here.

Thanks.


Maybe you should. Even you would probably gotten a chuckle out of that
one.

I have a self-imposed limitation on the amount of right-wing stupid I
read each day. The few posts of FlaJim I see second or third hand remind
me of the sorts of lame insults you'd hear in junior high school, as do
the posts of Herring and a handful of others. Since I get my daily
quotient of "stupid" from reading some of PsychoSnotty's posts, I feel
no need to read more of them.


It's good to know the insults thrown about by you and Don are 'mature, adult' insults...such as the
'PsycohSnotty' usage in that post.

What a f***ing joke!

John H. -- Hope you're having a great day!



At the risk of sounding "judgmental" to Scott, there's no question that
the bulk of the posts in this newsgroup sound like they originated in a
Jr. High School playground. It's screwy when one considers that most
of us are old farts over the age of 50. It seems to have become one of
those "you started it" debates that are never resolved. Oh well.


Actually, my post was a response to Harry. When he refers to others' use of 'lame insults you'd hear
in junior high school', I get a chuckle.

John H. -- Hope you're having a great day!

Again, what's changed? Are things a lot better now?

Refresh my memory. What memo?


The 2005 unemployment report

At that time our unemployment for the construction trades was half of
one percent in SW Florida and anyone could call themselves a
construction worker (right to work)



Due primarily to rebuilding efforts following three hurricanes in a
little over a year. Anyone with a pickup truck and a hammer became
"construction workers."

The righties in the USA like to keep the poor as poor as possible, so
they can be more easily controlled.

People should be encouraged to get an education and not be concerned
what the minimum wage is.

Don...please put some context in your posts. I don't read FlaJim's

Thanks.

1) If you were that interested you would read his posts.
2) You read EVERY post and you are a sad liar.
3) "FlaJim's potty dumps" isn't something an adult would post unless
there were mental issues that were beyond his (or her ) control.
4) You are 100% correct that Don is an ass clown who can't quote
properly with his POS Playbook.

Play on...

This odd behaviour of Don's is obviously a ploy to get attention.

As always. He's an old man with nothing else to do.

"Self-imposed"? Is your "wife" working with you on your narcissism and
lying?
