'Joe the plumber' and Obama's tax plan

- Actually the Eagle's stadium sits with a commanding view of the naval docks on the Delaware river, and is usually hit with some pretty strong winds because of the exposed location. The other stadiums around it are much lower to the ground as well, so, maybe do some research next time …

- Yes the fighter label is being mis-used here. This is probably an attempt to penetrate a naval blockade, if they ever faced one. Get in close enough to let loose an anti-ship missile.

- This is not a stealth fighter. You can't build a stealth fighter with round exhaust naucells with afterburners. Go look at the rear exhausts, they look just like those on an F14 or F15, hardly stealthy at all.

You need to look at the Community Reinvest Act. Google it. Look at the changes made in 1995 before you blame the Bush admin. Also, look at who tried to make changes to add oversight but were blocked. Read about it and you will see the Democrats pushed this wonderful CRA act which is the root cause of the mess we are in.
