Lots of people complain about jobs going overseas, but look how many
people in this thread are still using AOL even though they know AOL has
moved customer service to India.

You can get dial up from a variety of ISP's with call centers in the
USA, for under $10. My dad pays under $7 a month for unlimited access.

If you want the US economy to improve, you can help by adjusting your
purchases to favor goods and services from the USA.

How many of us can say most of our radios were made in the USA?



Who makes radios in the USA? Don't think anyone has in years..

Radios made in the USA include:

Palstar, Ten-tec, Drake, and Harris.

Yes, they "Offshored" the LifeSavers plant here to Canada. Sugar and cardboard
were less expensive. Not sure about labor.

Guess that counts.

George Will's column for today mentions the Lifesavers plant moving to Canada. They're saving $10,000,000 a year on sugar.

Speaking of John Kerry the war hero ..

http://www.washtimes.com/national/20...3002-8027r.htm







Bill Clinton was criticized in 1992, when it was reported that he used
political pressure to avoid the Vietnam-era draft after he ignored a written
agreement to accept a slot in the ROTC at the University of Arkansas. He was
further cited for his involvement in the antiwar movement as a student at
Oxford University in England, including his work in coordinating the largest
antiwar, anti-U.S. demonstration on foreign soil.


Kinda like Duhbya did in getting an air guard assignment because his father
wrote a letter?

Politics as usual.....................


My reaction is that the American people have had it with the big lie," she told
CNN Wednesday. "Any attempts to link Kerry to me and make him look bad with
that connection is completely false. We were at a rally for veterans at the
same time. I spoke, Donald Sutherland spoke, John Kerry spoke at the end. I
don't even think we shook hands.

"I'm tired of the government lying. I'm tired of people desperately pulling out
anything that they can do to hurt another candidate, and I think that the
American people feel that way, too," she said. "It's a bunch of hogwash."

She also said that she does not recall meeting Kerry during the antiwar
movement, although she said she did meet him years later after he became a
senator and she was married to Ted Turner, who founded CNN but no longer has
any management role with the network.

Kerry aides said he did not support Fonda's trip to Vietnam, an action for
which many veterans still refuse to forgive her more than 30 years later.

On the campaign trail, Kerry frequently talks about both his war record and his
antiwar activities after coming home, and he has said he is proud of both.

But his so-called association with Fonda has begun to draw fire from
conservatives and veterans.

"It bothered us, anyone who associated themselves with Jane Fonda, with (her
husband)Tom Hayden, with the antiwar movement," said Rep. Randy "Duke"
Cunningham, R-California, a former Navy pilot shot down in 1972.

"We just wanted to do our job, complete our mission for our country that sent
us and come back alive. And having people like Sen. Kerry protest that was kind
of a slap in the face to us."

But the president of the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation, Bobby Muller,
said Kerry has strong support among Vietnam vets.

"We have been contacted by veterans across the country [asking], 'How do I
connect to the Kerry campaign?'" he said. "I have not seen in the 26 years that
I've been in Washington, ever, the kind of dynamic and energizing of a Vietnam
veteran community in this country as I am right now."

It seems as though we have a mexican standoff on who did what...............
