Only in America do have a Federal holiday to remember what we are thankful for, immediately followed by the largest shopping day of the year to max out our credit cards for the next holiday, Christmas.

Current U.S. Senator from Arizona and running as a Republican for President of the United States. He is a war hero and was a prisoner of war during Vietnam. However, being a war hero does not qualify anyone to be President of the U.S. He is a traitor to the Republican party and masquerades himself as a Conservative by stabbing his party in the back and voting with liberal Democrats on critical Congressional Bills. He has cosponsored many Congressional Bills with very liberal Russ Feingold of Wisconsin (McCain-Feingold) and Edward Kennedy of Massachusettes (McCain-Kennedy). He has numerous times voted against tax cuts and limited Congressional spending. This man will do anything and say anything by relying on voter ignorance to become President of the United States. He can easily criticize his opponents but can't take the criticisim towards himself. He has attacked his Repeblican opponents and calling himself the "most consistent Reagan Conservative." What a joke and a clown. To prove he isn't a Conservative, he was endorced by the New York Times and the Boston Globe. Go figure. Unfortunately his tactics coupled with voter ignorance will probably result in the Republican nomination for President.
He is the epitome of the word REPUBLICRAT, and it's people like him who are what is everything wrong with Washington.

John McCain is masquerading himself as a friend of Republicans and Conservatives but, in reality, is sucking up to the liberals and far left to get elected. He lacks integrity and will NEVER get my vote. He is a clown and should join the circus.

The Land of 10,000 lakes. The Gopher State. The Siberia of the United States. A cold state of the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes region bounded by Wisconsin, Iowa and the Dakotas. Its location in the Upper Midwest makes it similar to Wisconsin and, unfortunately, Michigan. Minnesota is frequently considered one of the best, most progressive states in the country. Its 5 million residents (21st in population) are blessed with a good economy, good education and some of the country’s best schools, high literacy, and good healthcare with generally healthy people (Rochester is home to the Mayo Clinic), but embraces liberal politics it considers “progressive.” As a result, it is the most tax burdened state in the country--Minnesota never met a tax it didn't like. The capital is Saint Paul and the largest city is its twin, Minneapolis (370,000), to the west. The Minneapolis-St. Paul Metro Area has about 3-million people and is 60% of the state’s population. Minneapolis is a college town and home to the University of Minnesota. The Mall of America is located in nearby Bloomington. Other population centers include include Duluth and Rochester
Minnesota is much like its regional states and notorious for its long and brutal winters, numerous lakes and plenty of opportunities to get out an enjoy nature. Many Minnesotans like to do ice sculptures, sled, ski, ice fishing, and go snowmobiling during the long winter. Many “downstate” Minnesotans in the Twin Cities region have vacations homes in the north that they frequent in the summer. Its 5 million residents are descendants of Nordic Europeans with funny, northern accents that resemble a dialect heard in Michigan, Wisconsin and Canada. Minnesotans are conservative by nature, but politically liberal. It is a major “blue” state and frequently supports Democrats in national elections. The stereotypical Minneosta demeanor is called “Minnesota nice” to connote a sort of smiling stubbornness, forced politeness, false humility or passive hostility, but not necessarily haughty. For example, they use word “different” to refer to inferiority. Minnesotans know their state is considered among the progressive in the country, but don’t usually boast about it.
Minnesota is the HQ to several large, well known companies like Northwest Airlines (Eagan), Target, 3M, Best Buy and General Mills. It is the birthplace of Judy Garland, Hubert Humphrey, Laura Ingalls-Wilder, Ernest Hemingway, Garrison Keillor, Jessie “the body” Ventura (who was also Governor at one point), Jessica Biel, that idiot Al Franken, Winona Ryder, and Vince Vaughn.

A liberal bastion of 6.5 million people in the New England region of the northeast United States. Boston is the capital and largest city, and is a major cultural and educational center. Massachusetts is known for liberalism, high taxes, the Kennedys, the Berhsire Mountains and cold winters.

1. Wallyworld.
2. two words: corporate terrorism. This Benadict Arnold corporation hates anything to do with competition and American capitalism. It imports products from China (ironically Communist) and Mexico to sell them at a low price, putting out of business some American corporations like Ohio-based Huffy bicycles.
3. The epitome of whitetrash America and you almost have to be such to shop there (their stores in the southwest have nothing but dirty Hispanic men wearing wife-beater shirts who shop there).
4. It gives capitalism a bad name and is responsible for the demise of jobs outsourced to Mexico. It bullies smaller businesses across America by invading the suburbs and establishing predatory prices to put the smaller, older business out of commission.
5. Practices 21st Century endentured servitude and treats its employees like disposable goods. It makes billions but pays its employees a slave wage. Many of them have sued the company to get any insurance benefits. The company refuses to let its employees unionize, although it wouldnt do any good anyway.
6. Their stores have like 30 checkout lanes but to save a dime, will only open half of them, creating ungodly long lines.
7. Their stores are dirty. Their shopping carts are usually broken and wander meanderously through the parking lot but you can’t find any in the store.
8. Hires the worst people: Their employees are unhelpfull, unprofessional, uneducated and lack professional skills. They don’t even speak English in the workplace and are probably here illegally. You almost have to be a minority to work there, thanks to affirmative action. Not surprisingly it hires illegal immigrants to clean its stores. It hires only people in wheelchairs to greet you as you enter and then questions you as you leave to make sure you’re not stealing.

What a company. Walmart is disgusting and I have to shower when I get home from their stores. They should be reported to the department of Labor. They might as well have a sign outside that says, "NOW HIRING. PLEASE INQUIRE INSIDE. WHITES AND AMERICANS NEED NOT APPLY."

The only retailer in America that allows people (primarily Hispanic males) to enter the premises wearing only a wifebeater shirt on the outside.

The only mega-corporation that can turn surburban America into a haven for whitetrash. The people who shop there are digusting (especially in the desert southwest)and the employees are disgusting. Many of them need to shower, dont speak English, aren't helpful, aren't customer-service friendly, dont have professional skills, don't have people skills and lack an education. Many of its employees are either ex-cons who are just waiting to steal your identity, black men with dreadlocks who wear pants that are ten sizes to big that are worn below their ass as if they were falling down or illegal immigrants who cant speak a damb word of English who are rude and dont give a crap about your customer-service needs. Hell, ALL of their janitors are here illegaly anyway. You go into a department asking where a product is and their piece-of-crap employees say, "I don't know, sir" and walk away with out the 2-seconds of care in the world to find out. I shouldn't be too surpised because the employees are treating the customer the exact same way they are treated by the company. I admit that I am anti-Walmart.
Walmart is a piece-of-crap company with piece-of-crap workers and a piece-of-crap, anit-American philosophy that gives Capitalism a bad name. This company needs to be investigated by the Justice Deaprtment, the Department of Labor and the Federal Trade Commission and its CEO thrown in jail. I DESPISE everything about Walmart and hope they go out of business one of these days.
ME: "Excuse me, sir but do you carry the Panteen brand of shampoo? I am finding everything else but that."
EMPLOYEE: "I don't know, sir."
ME: "Can you find out?"
EMPLOYEE: "It's not my department."
ME: "Nevermind, jerkoff. I want to see your supervisor."
EMPLOYEE: "Whatever, homie. Piece"
