Just that info alone should make it easy to figure out who the winner's in life are whether out in the real world or on the internet.
That's why I preach to my kids to avoid negative people like the plague. Any idiot can see the reason why something can't work, but success is reserved for those to focused on achieving to notice all those reasons why they should fail.

Thanks for the tip but if being a doom and gloomer means I am prepared, I will own it.
Would you say that to a Boy Scout? I sure hope not.
Why not? I never heard any Scout leader say that being prepared meant believing everybody who disagrees with me is destroying civilization and must be stopped at all costs for the greater good... as some suggest.

You use those words "greater good" and remind me that so many that I disagree with like to use those words to further their thoughts and beliefs.
Kinda like those who think they're working for the greater good are really just do gooders who think they're doing greater things where really they're just interfering with someone else's stability.
The difference between being prepared and being a defeatist is the defeatist isn't really prepared, excepting for defeat.

Ahh, the selective memory of the Left. Do we have to remind you for eight years how much the Left tried to talk down the economy, tried to lose a war, rooted and raged against any and all policies of Bush?
I remember how the Left dismissed the tremendous growth in the GDP, the stock market, the superb figures of UE, on and on they went, for the sole purpose of being against anything Bush did.
