How come so many Americans are posting on the Aussie ebay boards now?

[daydream**believer]

Have your ebay chat boards been shut down?

Are your ebay boards boring?

Genuine question. Not having a go at anyone. Just wondering why its happening all of a sudden

I'll bet the Americans are unaware of the Battle of Brisbane.

They should read the entire article I think

Ahh, this would make for a good topic on the factor. I'm also gonna do some Youtube searches on this.

I hope Americans are not so foolish to go down this track again.

Jeb Bush, brother to former US President George W Bush, has announced he himself is looking into running for president in 2016.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.  At least George Bush wasn't an empty suit....unlike what is in the White House now.

I probably wouldn't vote for Jeb Bush because I don't agree with his feeling on illegal immigrants or his acceptance for the Common Core educational scheme the government has going.

Ain't life grand that we are all allowed our own opinion without being called out for it? 🙂

"or his acceptance for the Common Core educational scheme the government has going."

What is wrong with that ?

[dwilke33]

aps, mainly I do not believe the government needs to stick their nose into every aspect of our lives and they sure don't need to be in our educational system and telling us what our children need to learn.

Common Core is plain dumb and the long way to figure out a mathmatical problem.  Our school district here where I live do not teach it.  I think the federal government holds back funding for those school districts that don't follow their orders.  We will get by just fine with out the feds money. 

Tried and true math rules.

Thanks. I should have looked it up and clarified what it exactly was before asking.

I thought Jeb was into small Government ?

This reminds me of an old Jack and Jill math joke. 😉
