| Premiers cite job losses to pressure PM
Just like the Little Red Hen story, if that makes it easier for Liberals to understand.The best part of having hostile Liberal governments for all those years, it taught us never to rely on Ottawa if we can at all help it. That's why Ralph did the cuts, and in retrospect, thank goodness he did otherwise we'd be in the same boat as central Canada. And you know, I kind of see Ontario's point, but Quebec having its hand out after we just dumped billions into it is ridiculous. Then Charest blows it on tax cuts and has his hand out again.

She speaks dispassionately about how he used gift money from his 2002 high school graduation to buy his first motorcycle, and how she would never buy him one. She is calm when she talks about her son's graduation from Tech, how he liked his new job with the Pepsi Bottling Group in Wytheville, and that he hoped to parlay it into a lucrative career.

Yet while it's easy to blame an industry that's obviously sold its soul to the devil, what really instigates infidelity? Who is ultimately responsible for cheating? And are there ways to prevent your partner from going astray? Personally, I can't relate to cheating. I've never done it nor plan to. After all, dishonesty and lying are two of my biggest pet peeves. They're inexcusable. To cheat on a lover is cowardly, selfish, and just plain wrong. And cheating can take a toll on the mental, and maybe even the physical, well-being of both the cheater and the cheated –- both of whom are left with the emotional scars of lies and betrayal … or worse, the physical effects of an unwanted disease.

Since losing the Iowa caucuses, Clinton has been critical of how caucuses operate, saying their requirement of in-person, on-time participation leaves many out. Obama had a full Sunday in Southern Nevada, first making a surprise appearance at a downtown black church, where he spoke at the end of the service. Before he arrived, the pastor of the Pentecostal Temple Church of God in Christ, speaking from the pulpit, advocated for Obama, possibly breaking the law. Pastor Leon Smith told the congregation that "the more he (Obama) speaks, the more he wins my confidence, and ... if the polls were open today, I would cast my vote for this senator." He urged them to do the same, saying, "If you can't support your own, you're never going to get anywhere.
