Still no access to Palin medical records
PastaJoe replied to PastaJoe's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
You only need to forward your mortgage bills if McCain wins, since he's the one who wants the gov't to buy them up. Oil bills should go to Palin, since she has a socialist history of redistributing the wealth from the oil companies in Alaska to the residents. -
I went through a large plant shutdown 3 years ago after working there for 21 years, and my current company is having a slowdown and at the point of asking for voluntary layoffs, so I know what you're going through. You'll go through the range of emotions from anger to self doubt, and may have to swallow your pride and take jobs you're overqualified for (if they'll give you the chance) for alot less money that you're used to until the right job or at least a job related to your experience comes along. I'm a salaried employee and have an M.B.A., and spent a year working as a landscaper for a friend's business until I could find another I.T. job. To be honest, I preferred doing the physical landscaping work, but it wasn't steady work and had no benefits.

The person with the most correct/closest predictions will be the PPP Premier Political Prognosticator. 1. Who wins, and what is the electoral college vote total for each candidate? 2. How many total Senate seats do the Democrats have after the election? 3. Which tossup/leaning other way state will end up going for which candidate? Electoral map reference: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/ma...vs_mccain/#data My predictions: 1. Obama; 353-185 2. 57 Senate seats 3. North Carolina for Obama

Is Texas still part of the U.S.? I thought Bush ceded it to Mexico. English is the 3rd language there after Spanish and Slow Drawl.

At least it's consistant with who I supported, Hillary came in first followed by Chris Dodd.

About Congress' 9% Approval Rating
PastaJoe replied to molson_golden2002's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Well if Americans are so upset with the Democrat agenda in Congress that the Repubs have blocked, then we should expect the Repubs to make gains in the election. But if Americans want to give the Democrat agenda a better chance of passing, then we should see Democrat gains. -
McCain, Obama, and Biden have all given access to their records, yet Palin still hasn't. I wonder what's in her past that she doesn't want known. Something that might make her seem less conservative? LAKEWOOD, Ohio (CNN) – With less than 24 hours to go before the presidential election, Sarah Palin still has not released her medical records and there is no indication the campaign is planning to do so. Two weeks ago, Palin’s campaign told several reporters traveling with the campaign that a summary of the governor’s medical history would be made public before election day. Reporters were told that details on Palin’s medical background would be released early last week. Last Thursday, after that timeframe had passed, a campaign aide backed off the previous pledge, saying the campaign wasn’t sure when the information would be released. John McCain, Barack Obama and Joseph Biden have all provided details about their medical history. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/

And why didn't they come through? Because they were blocked by Bush and the Repubs in Congress. Thus the importance of a fillibuster proof majority in the Senate. Probably won't happen, but it would be nice. -
Glad to see you used the present tense to emphasize that the current Republican administration is allowing this to happen, and the Republicans in Congress blocked the comprehensive immigration bill that McCain and the Democrats supported. You can't blame the Dems on this, it was the Repubs that left things as they are, and now McCain is against the same bill he supported.

Palin genius strikes again
PastaJoe replied to Kelly the Dog's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
You really think so? I think she's already working on the base for the 2012 nomination, so we'll be seeing plenty of her in the future. -

Not too picky? What if you're in a jail cell with another guy?

I guess Obama learned from Reagan's "shining city on a hill" imagery.

Maybe tungston, in case people start talking in tongues. -

Is this a veiled racist threat attempting to compare Friday, the companion of Robinson Crusoe, to Obama? -
If Obama wins, the thousands of plumbers making more than 250k will hit the streets carrying pipes and wrenches, joining forces with CEOs who will instruct their secretaries to wield the heavy binders of their compensation paperwork, and the oil company executives who will be rolling flaming barrels of oil down the street.

In the two previous elections, Massachusetts was the state that Kerry and Gore won by the largest percentages. The reddest states for Bush were Alabama in 2004 and Alaska in 2000. This year it's Hawaii and New York for Obama. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/ma...vs_mccain/#data

RAVENNA, Mich. - A Michigan man who bowled his first perfect game immediately collapsed in the bowling alley and died. Don Doane belonged to the same team at a bowling alley for 45 years. On Oct. 16 at Ravenna Bowl, he scored a perfect 300. As he was being congratulated by his teammates, local television reports said Doane collapsed on the floor. The 62-year-old was taken to a local hospital but could not be saved. A medical examiner later determined that a heart attack killed Doane. http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/27472567/ What would you want to be doing right before you die unexpectedly?

A Last Push To Deregulate

He got "railroaded" into lying? He'll get a pardon for taking the fall for the real person who should have gone to jail; Dick Cheney.
