      Well at least both candidates are in agreeance. They don't think about zinc mining. LMAO hahahahahhaa

      Then again McCain doesn't think about much anyway, except when Palin walks by.

      Then his thoughts are truly directed but wholly rejected.

      Maybe he should think about zinc mining. He is going to need to do something after this election. It won't be as president !!!!!

      Hahahahahhaaa

        You see one zinc mine, you've seen them all. I'm really interested in the future of the Missouri River bottlenose shark.

          Zinc in vitamin pills make me itch. So I'm biased against zinc mining.

            Forget about the Zinc! I want to know where they stand on the “BIG MO”! Yeah, you heard me, Molybdenum!

            And what about the copper-molybdenum antagonism?! NOBODY wants to talk about that!
