      @snowwolf777, you’re right Jones does have the right to express his views and be a Communist. But traditionally we don’t elect Communists or support Communist ideologies. Therefore, when we find out about a Communist in our gov’t - we have the right to be outraged and ask that they be removed from their position. If nobody cared, then he would still be there.

      Also, heavy, wet dirt on a roof seems like a bad idea, especially when you have to find the source of a leak? What a mess?

    14. snowwolf7777 on February 5th, 2010 11:11 am

      The true threat to be communist he believed assholes like you are the first amendment right to be communist he wanted about bush causing 911 if thats what he believed assholes like you are the first amendment right to.
      The true threat to say what he had the first amendment right.

      So when the added weight from the dirt, especially after a rain, cause the roof of these old building to collapse, who will be responsible?

      I think perhaps his most impressive accomplishment is that he’s become an economic/environmental guru without actually knowing anything about either field.

      First comment was just a bit of sarcasm.
