Gulp! Does that mean Gould "lied" when he said that burger flippers
*were*
reclassified as manufacturing jobs?

Maybe just gullible.


More precisely, misled by the administration's own recommendation that
fast food jobs should now be considered manufacturing.

(Sort of like "ketchup counts as a vegetable in a school lunch")

Whatever the source of my misinformation, I do hereby admit to being
underinformed and reaching an erroneous conclusion. You guys have to be
correct
once in a while, how the heck else could you be called the "right" wing?
:-)


Geez, Gould, I gave you a flat-out "apology" (that you were going to bronze)
in the boat speed thread. You, OTH, in true liberal fashion, blame somebody
else.



Now, if I said that DC hookers were being counted as a "service industry",
*that* would be a lie.

But it would be more realistic and believable, don't you agree?

Did I say that? No, here is what I said: "The class before mine was 85%
recruited before graduation and 100% employed in the field. AFAIK that
was the peak." This was speaking of undergrad engineers, specificially
BSME grads from a well regarded university. I wouldn't be surprised if
the engineering class at Wottsamatta U. did not fare so well.

You are supposedly in the education field, John, is this discussion
about economics *that* far above your head, or are you truly blinded to
any fact which does not support Bush/Cheney's propaganda?

Meanwhile, what do you have to say about the implications of interest
rates versus the supposedly booming economy?

Herring is a substitute teacher. Period.

It's better than being the mouth peice of a money grubbing union
organization.

And if you use my wife's logic, a toilet can't be any good if it only costs
$50-75. ;-)



Let her spend a couple hundred bucks on the toilet seat!

Sounds an awful lot like Colin and George with reference to WMD in Iraq. You
knew that was coming, right Chuck?

PS. Given the dishonest manner in which many poll questions are phrased, I have
no qualms about *any* answer I give a pollster.

Also, don't be knocking our hookers. Marion Barry, who will undoubtedly be
elected into some DC office soon, would be upset with you.

Geez, Gould, I gave you a flat-out "apology" (that you were going to bronze)
in the boat speed thread. You, OTH, in true liberal fashion, blame somebody
else.

An apology is only appropriate when one has committed an offensive personal
act.
(Such as calling somebody a liar).

Absent such egregious, brutish behavior, an admission of error is sufficient. I
admitted my error, and explained the basis upon which it was founded.

Being incorrect once in a while isn't a sin, nor should taking a position
ultimately proved to be wrong be construed as an insult by those on the other
side of the question.

The entire purpose of discussion is to explore truth, not determine who should
be taken out an shot for being less correct on an issue.

Sounds an awful lot like Colin and George with reference to WMD in Iraq. You
knew that was coming, right Chuck?

Yes, it does. Too bad the results of their erroneous conclusion aren't as
benign as the results of mine. :-)

A Republican and a Democrat were walking down the
street when they came upon a homeless person. The
Republican gave the homeless person his business card
and told him to come to his business for a job. He
then took twenty dollars out of his pocket and gave it
to the homeless person.

The Democrat was very impressed, and when they came to
another homeless person, he decided to help. He walked
over to the homeless person and gave him directions to
the welfare office. Then he then reached into the
Republican's pocket and got out twenty dollars, gave
the homeless person five and kept 15 for administrative
overhead.

Now, if I said that DC hookers were being counted as a "service industry",
*that* would be a lie.


Also, don't be knocking our hookers.

And why not? Fair is fair, and they're out there hooking with their
knockers....

Then I retract my apology for initially providing you with inaccurate data
on the boat speed/economy thread.
