Qwest, it isn’t just a journey, it’s a destination
For anyone interested in changing their telephone service to Qwest, here is the phone number to call: 1-800-860-2255 It took me less than 10 minutes to make the change from MCI to Qwest. After the transaction was complete, I said I wanted to thank Qwest for not complying with the NSA’s request to turn over their customer’s phone records. The representative I was speaking to said I wouldn’t believe the number of calls they’d gotten over the last few...
The Laugh is on We-The-People

Turning a Profit: How to Be Rich and a Democratic Voter-and Still be Voting Your Self-Interest
Let’s face it folks, no matter how much we care for our neighbors if we’re gonna vote for a candidate, there’s gotta be at least something in it for us.

On the one hand its an excellent development: The “Reagan Democrats” are coming home! Hooray. On the other hand, it’s not...
