  1. Morris hates the Clintons and doesn't miss a chance to trash them. Is McCain an objective authority on Obama? Yeah, he did a terrible job. When Clinton left office: Unemployment 4.2% Budget: $281 billion surplus National Debt: $5.7 trillion Gas: $1.50 Wall Street going strong Iraq contained 2008: Unemployment: 6.1% Budget: $357 billion deficit National Debt: $9.7 trillion Gas: $4.00 Wall Street in crisis Occupation of Iraq at $10 billion per month
  2. Trying to have a civil discourse with an opponent is fine until they come at you with a knife, then you either fight back or get cut up.
  3. My first thought when I saw this thread was that he must have passed away. Glad to see he's still alive and kicking. How great were the days when the Empires Sports Network was on. A network devoted to Buffalo and upstate NY sports. Friggin Rigas had to get greedy and ruin a good thing.
  4. What do they call New York Republicans in the South? Liberals.
  5. Dick Morris, there's an objective authority. What device did he use to to allow a prostitute to listen in on conversations with the President?
  6. Cutting taxes during expensive wars is not fiscally responsible. Relaxing regulations on financial corporations is not being responsible. Those were both done by Bush and the Repub Congress.
  7. If they're employing Americans and not moving jobs overseas they're helping the economy.
  8. Multinational corporations? Neo-conservatives? Evangelical absolutists?
  9. Oh snap, Sarah gets dissed by her own campaign: McCain supporter Carly Fiorina, the former CEO of Hewlett Packard, seemed to veer off message for a moment on the McGraw Milhaven show on KTRS radio in St Louis, when she made the case that Sarah Palin may be qualified to run America -- but certainly not to run her old company. "Do you think she has the experience to run a major company like Hewlett Packard?" the host asked Fiorina. "No, I don’t," she replied. "But that’s not what she’s running for. Running a corporation is a different set of things."
  10. Are we better off than we were 8 years ago? When Bush took office: Unemployment 4.2% Budget: $281 billion surplus National Debt: $5.7 trillion Gas: $1.50 2008: Unemployment: 6.1% Budget: $357 billion deficit National Debt: $9.7 trillion Gas: $4.00
  11. Ooh, she's going to be interviewed by Sean Hannity. That's like John Madden interviewing Brett Favre. And now she's pulling a Nixon like tactic and not going to cooperate with the Troopergate investigation because she thinks the process is tainted. Nice job trying to kick the ball down the road.
  12. Even though I have Adrian Peterson and Brian Westbrook, I lost 106-105 because my TE Anthony Fasano who I picked up this week got zero points, while my benched TE Heath Miller got 3 points. Still 5-1 between my 3 teams.
  13. I think we'd notice, Tina appears to be better informed on the issues. She couldn't say the things Palin says and keep a straight face for too long.
  14. We're not talking about your friends, we're talking about the POTUS. I don't have to imagine a president looking up from a children's book...
  15. Washington was informed on what was the current technology of the day. He didn't correspond with stone tablets, he used quill and paper. Maybe the Repubs should use your idea in an ad. "John McCain, as technologically up to speed as George Washington". And 70-80 year olds will tell you how they just don't have the energy they used to, and about their health problems, and that things were much better and simpler in the old days.
  16. Obama has always said that he would set clear timelines for leaving Iraq, but they were open to modification if the situation called for it. The argument has been that Bush/McCain have not previously even been willing to set clear timeline goals, which doesn't give the Iraqis the incentive to resolve their political issues. And what does how a child in elementary school is registered by his parents have to do with the election? And if it's so, is there something wrong with being a Muslim? Or do you prescribe to the idea that all Muslims are bad? And the fact that he chose to become a Christian means nothing? So anyone who isn't born and raised as a Christian is also bad?
  17. And that's a key point; if McCain caved to the conservatives on his first major decision over his better judgement, what else will he cave to if he's president? It's in fact McCain who has put politics first ahead of country, while Obama picked a person he felt was a trusted advisor and qualified to take over if needed, even though it didn't buy him as much politically.
  18. Zing! I think it's McCain's way of trying to court the pony express vote.
  19. The agreement in question is related to the continuing role of American troops in Iraq; such as if there will be bases, what will troops be allowed to do as opposed to Iraqi troops, and what would be the legal consequences of actions by American troops. This is not an agreement that states, "we will withdraw X number of troops by Y date", as the writer mistakenly infers and you mistakenly interpreted. Obama doesn't want to be tied down by some agreement that Bush negotiated without Congressional approval. Bush avoids calling it a treaty because he wants to bypass Congressional oversight. And I thought Bush/McCain said troop withdrawls should be based on results on the ground, not negotiated timetables, so which is it?
  20. She may be politically smart, but she's not knowledgable on the issues. She does a good job of avoiding answering the questions she can't and deflecting by parroting canned responses based on key words in questions.
  21. Yes Mr High and Mighty, my mother had to take painkillers a few years ago when she had shoulder surgery. She didn't like the effects they were having on her, so she decided to stop taking them and put up with the pain. I guess you think anyone who gives in to drugs should be given a pass since it's not their fault, so we should free all the people in prison on drug charges who didn't have the means and connections to get away with it like Mistress Cindy and Limbaugh. I wasn't "taking glee" in her addiction, but pointing out the hypocracy of the Republicans who think she's this great role model for women, when in fact she abused her position to acquire drugs.
  22. Yes, and some of them are running for office.
  23. But how is that true? According to Sarah Palintologist, Adam and Eve tamed the dinosaurs 6000 years ago.
  24. How ironic; the boyfriend was laying pipe, and he ended up getting laid out by a pipe.
  25. I knew she had got hooked on painkillers, but I hadn't previously heard about the Limbaugh-like methods she used to obtain them and the others that got adversely affected. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...ml?hpid=topnews
