As one of the Mudcat Elite, and much more importantly, as one of the founding partners in Lane, Fielding, Patterson, and Swan, Layabouts at Large, and for hire, I tire of Janet Ryan posting as though she is numerous people and then chastising us elite's for our manipulative ways. We ain't manipulative......and we ain't arrogant....we'ns are jess poor folk who wish we was as good as JR.

I have told you before, Ryan, and I will tell you again. Your pontification without action smells worse than Spaw's farts. I will take his over yours anyday.

Thomas, I apologize for that short hijack. I applaud your resolution and resolve to do the same. Working folks in this country can't take much more of this "prosperity and recovery".

Thanks for starting this.

Mick
