I guess it depends on what you consider poverty? Income or conditions? A little of both?

All about time....low income over many years certainly would be a factor.....but the word poverty, especially in the US sells more ads/papers. A more accurate statement would be....."Record number of 18-40 year olds are moving back in w/their parents"

"Prior analyses of after-tax income made by the wealthiest 1 percent compared to middle- and low-income Americans have also pointed to a widening inequality gap, but only reflect U.S. data as of 2007."

And now, since the IRS' numbers through 2009 have been tabulated, per my link, it disproves the article's notion.

I LIKE TURTLES !!!!!!

John Stewart unloaded on Gingrich last night. The best part was he used Republican Senators and talking heads to beg the public not to make him the nominee.

I think it's gonna work. Romney may be behind in polls, but he has all the long term momentum.

In most of the early polls, it's pretty clear to me that GOP supporters think that Romney is too close to Obama (that is, too close to the middle) to be palletable in terms of who gets the GOP nod. OTOH, it also seems that Romney would have the best shot to beat brother Hussein (fuck you, his momma named him Hussein, I'ma' call him Hussein) next November.

Bin Laden = Dead
Qaddafi = Dead
Kim Jung Il - Dead
Hugo Chavez -Stage 5 Cancer
Castro - Stepped down

Who would have thought that Obama's foreign policy was so badass?

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is probably shitting his pants every day looking at these guys dropping

exactly one of which has an American bullet in him. we're good but I dont think we can give people cancer yet. obama is lined to to take credit for the abolition of the 1st, 5th, 6th and 7th amendments killing foreign dictators not so much.

Shit, if Reagan can have the fall of the Soviet Union and Communism, then Obama can have Kim Jong Il.

Mythology is mythology...fuck if you THINK we can't shoot people with stroke and cancer gamma rays.

Kim Jong Il is dead? I never even knew he was ill?

except that the 1st, 5th, 6th and 7th amendments are still very much the law of the land, while despite criticism from the right for giving his support, Quadaffi (sp?) is dead and gone.

Bin Laden gone
