1. The Douchebag for Liberty just can't get enough
of THK, can he?

Who the hell does he appeal to? I can't imagine that the repups find him attractive either, but I could be wrong. It's a sheer wonder that he has a job. On television no less.

One ugly, mean SOB.

3. Court reporters already a dying breed.
Replaced by tapes (we use a sophisticated 5 camera video system in NJ courtrooms, with cameras that automatically switch to the person who is talking).

4. Which brings up a really critical point about future jobs and .....
...job qualifications. Under Bush, he would encourage everyone to get more training, go to Junior colleges and get associates degrees, but with no guidance or direction as to exactly what one should be trained to do and what skills would be needed for the new jobs. Since all manufacturing is being outsourced to other countries, the only skills that will be in demand for people living in America would be service oriented.
