For West Coast Duers - please watch CBS News
There was a heartbreaking story about Johnstown, PA, where, after the steel mills shut down in 1999 (I think) the major, the only employers are the prison and the guards. And about its highest share of loss in Iraq. Highest in the nation.

And then the reporter concentrated on one man, talked to his grieving parents and to the son and, behind the son one could see the edges of a Kerry Edwards yard (Or a window) sign.

2. Welcome to Bu$hWorld
Where our middle-class citizens continue the slide into serfdom. Warehouse them in the military, warehouse them in prisons. Kill them for the o(i)ligarchy, and for those who return destroyed in spirit and mind, lock 'em up forever in Wackenhut prisons.
