I don't completely agree, but this is similar to everyone retroactively hating Tom Cruise's movies. Zalis - 05/01/2010 08:47:19 PM 978 Views

what about those not capable of walking away? LadyLorraine - 10/01/2010 03:51:10 AM 803 Views

You are not wrong LadyLorraine - 10/01/2010 04:43:55 PM 873 Views

okay, I can agree on your points LadyLorraine - 10/01/2010 05:14:32 PM 802 Views
That's not Economics 101. That's practically Anarcho-capitalism. Ghavrel - 13/01/2010 11:54:22 PM 831 Views
Duh. Cannoli - 14/01/2010 03:00:56 AM 838 Views

What bullshit you write. Tom - 10/01/2010 01:30:02 AM 805 Views
He's such a parody of himself, one wonders if he's not a fake identity created by rightists. *NM* LiterateDog - 10/01/2010 05:14:31 AM 452 Views
uhm...nothing in nature shares with all. LadyLorraine - 10/01/2010 05:28:04 AM 859 Views
So what you're saying is people shouldn't take movies to heart ? AgentOrange - 06/01/2010 01:39:21 PM 895 Views
That's just the point. Dannymac - 06/01/2010 04:15:48 PM 1011 Views

would you have felt better if they were albino aliens? LadyLorraine - 07/01/2010 07:16:20 AM 871 Views
You really have a habit of missing the point of my posts in the name of snide remarks. Tom - 07/01/2010 03:47:36 PM 919 Views
Yes well, it's a habit I picked up from the rest of the posters. LadyLorraine - 07/01/2010 05:41:51 PM 974 Views
