BINGO
That is exactly what I am saying. If in the past there were only same-sex marriage/same-sex relationships. We as a planet would be extinct. There would be no males or females because none would have been born. We would have canceled each other out. Hence, no people, hence no sperm, hence no egg, hence no artificial insemination.
Bingo!
No matter how many times and how many different ways you say it, many of us are unwilling to listen to unmitigated Republican propaganda, most of which is downright laughable.
You are..bingo..wrong
Nah, he hated the jews because of their wealth and influence and control of the money, whereas the christian germans had nothing and major unemployment. So, he needed a scapegoat for war and he blamed the jews for everything, taking the jobs, the money, controlling the banks. You need to go check out the history books. I truly dont know where you get your information from. Whew. Hitler wanted to get rid of the jews cause they were communist? WOW. That is warped.
Bingo! Desperation.

Bingo! And yet people still believe that...
we have not done any good over there.
Bingo!!! By Jove, I think you've got it.
It never was about the price of gas, it was about **your need to prove me wrong,** ( Kudos for admitting it!!!) when really I was not wrong at all. I am guilty of believing my friend, I never said I bought gas in California, only related what I had heard from someone who does. You are the one who felt the need to research and ferret out sources that stated otherwise.You were the one who could not let this go. People in glass houses....There is a striking similarity between you and some other posters on the right and I suspect the one who is using your name is one of them (or if you are the fake MT, then I am talking to you) and that is, no matter what or where is being discussed, you know people there. Had I said Kansas had high gas prices you would have said you had relatives, friends all over Kansas who stated otherwise and then you would have presented me with a Kansas grid of gas prices. Whatever I say about what I do or where I go, you and some others have definitive proof from some web site somewhere that what I am posting is not true. I was at the VA yesterday with my therapy dogs and I could reiterate what I heard from my group but I won't because it does not happen to fall in line with your sweeping statements about **the military** as if it is just one giant robotic block with one big brain instead of hundreds of thousands of individuals with their own brains, thank you very much. You a)would not believe me, b) would present me with all sorts of **facts** from extreme right-wing web sites, publications that say whatever I said is not true, c) tell me you are not sure I should even be allowed at the VA with my liberal anti-war views which are not at all good for the troops. (Nan told me that a long long time ago).
But I digress. As I said 2 posts ago (twice) you are right. I am wrong. Maybe me saying that for the third time will settle you down and you can move on.
BINGO... that's why the rabid Religious Right does
They're as bad as the fundamentalist Islamics...'It's OUR way, or the highway'!
Sheep.
Bingo. Give that girl a prize.
I can no longer say that sm - m and I never agree on anything. I can't handle a 61-cent hike in cigarettes. Just got off the phone with my husband who has been told to book a hotel suite for the duration while I go through withdrawal. I will be taking my last puffs with coffee and the inauguration. My quit date is Tuesday, Jan 20, just as soon as O is sworn in.
Having said that, cigarettes tax has always been the source of funding for SCHIPS and I see no reason for that to change, though you and the other posters have made good points about looking for other sources of unhealthy lifestyle choices OTHER nonsmoking Americans make.
name you couldn't think of....
John Evander Couey
I read in August 2007 that he is *fit to die* - *applauds.....

Nobody is questioning his patriotrism, but that's as far as it goes for me. I need someone who has a plan for the country. Who has the insight to see how far our country can go, the great things we can do as a nation.
While people may not know much about Barack one thing I do know is he has a plan and one that can be reached.
John McCain? He has no plan. Your absolutely correct. John McCain's platform is all about him and the time he spent as POW. At least Barack is making the election about us.
A lot of people may not know what Barack will bring (I do - a better future for us). Can you imagine what life would be like if we didn't do things because we didn't know what the outcome would be. A lot of our finest things have come because we took a chance on the unknown. We now have computers and other things, and we went to the moon and are exploring mars - all which was unknown years ago.
McCain - he will bring us war, no improvement in the economy, war, jobs continuing to go overseas, war, tax breaks for big companies and his wealthiest friends, war, continuing to rise food and gas prices, war, a rapidly rising deficit while we continue to send 1.8 billion dollars to Iraq (while they have a surplus), war, war, war, and more war. For those with children I think that would throw a huge red flag up. (and I don't mean the red, white and blue flag).

McCain had the right idea - he just picked the wrong token female to do it....bad judgement all the way around. There is just no justifying Palin for VP of an entire country let alone to an elderly man with cancer in his medical history.

Now we have her Hollywood smile that is as irritating as G. W.'s infamous constant smirk. Not to mention "soccer mom" to go along with "when I was in prison." and PULEZ!!! spare me that "folksy stuff." How intelligent people can say she won the debate is far beyond me. I would like to know on exactly which points she won. I didn't hear her give one single intelligent answer to a single intelligent question. Heaven help us if she is one heart beat away from the presidency. We think this country is in trouble now...........
You got that right. Couldn't say it better myself.

I couldn't have said it better myself
thanks!
Thank you - couldn't have said it better
I get quite irate when I am told what I should or should not watch/read. I have a mind and I know what I feel is right from wrong. Let me think for myself. That's why I don't like a lot of the mainstream TV shows because they sit and give their opinions and then try and tell everyone that is the way they should think. The minute you try and stop certain groups from talking you take away their freedom of speech. Makes me want to shout out to them, how come you get to speak and I can't. They'll scream and shout if their viewpoint is held back but they'll hold back our viewpoints in a nannosecond.
I say let people use their own minds. Let them read and listen to everything. Then let them make up their own minds.
Knowledge is freedom!
Couldn't have said it any better myself! - sm
'I guess if churches don't want government running them, then maybe they should stop trying to run government with their religion.'
Maybe if the churches didn't keep trying to 'dish it out', they wouldn't be in danger of having to 'take it'.
You mean you couldn't tell by looking at him
 Why can't she listen to him anymore?????? His sexual preference doesn't affect his singing voice does it?
So you couldn't resist TWICE?
Couldn't find it.
All I could find on that board was complaining and whining about liberals and how they're all terrible and godless, etc., etc. 'Nuff said.
couldn't resist
We live in a time when comedians outdo pundits. Here's Jay Leno:
President Bush is expected to announce that he is now sending more troops to Iraq, despite the fact that his generals, his military analysts, members of Congress, and most of the American people are against the idea. The reason he is doing it? To give Iraq a government that responds to the will of the people.
also couldn't resist....

I couldn't agree more! (SM)
How about Caroline Kennedy for his VP? It's definitely feeling "Camelotty" these days.
Remember the last time a US President chose the chooser of his VP? (Hint: They call him "Darth Vader.") 
I couldn't agree more.
In my family alone I have German, Irish, and Indian. I'm your basic Heinz 57. I don't go around saying I'm a German-Irish-Indian-American do I. No....I'm an American. I'm proud of my heritage, but I'm an American.....period.
When it comes to the idea of a black president.....I'm all for it.....if it is the right person and Obama is not. I'm all for a woman president but Hillary most definitely is NOT the one.
Couldn't ask for a better mayor....
Ditto on the Katrina and Rita chapter. Mayor Bill is top of the line. Wish he could stay forever.
I lived out West before moving back in...the commute to see friends and family was too much for me. That area experienced some of the same evolution as Sharpstown did in terms of mixed populations of ethnic populations, but without the benefit of the Super Neighborhood designation, at least as far as I know. It really has made a difference and that was the point I was trying to drive home about the proactive, inclusive approach. That progressive attitude is another thing that makes me really proud call Houston my home.
Couldn't have said it better...socialist to

You know, it's amazing how a REAL person, a woman no less, is on the ticket!
It's nice to see such a down-to-earth, likeable person be able to be on this ticket and not be part of the Washington machine. Her husband has a blue collar job. How many other candidates in recent history have been able to say that about their spouse? She is a REAL woman, has a family with kids and gut instincts to boot. I just think the whole idea of having a take-charge, no-nonsense state governor who knows how to use her noggin would be great for Washington and congress!
I couldn't agree more . . .
You and I are a minority on this board with this radical thinking, but I for one am ready for someone who honestly wants to do the right thing for the people -- not putting money into their cronies pockets!!! It is beyond me that anyone after seeing the 2 debates in the last week would even consider voting for THAT TEAM!! They scare me beyond anything that I have ever imagined!! They are hate mongering, self-righteous, vicious, desperate dimwits who obviously have no clear-cut plan, but just mask their stupidity with hate-filled lies as a smokescreen for their ignorance. The truly intelligent people in this country see through that bull!
Couldn't agree more........

Sorry you couldn't do better......shouldn't have

The reason you couldn't get help now
Is because to many people are abusing the system.
I had a friend awhile back who was engaged with a baby on the way. Well, two months after the baby was born, her fiance up and left. Couldn't handle the responsibility of being a father. Anyways, he disappeared off the radar. Therefore, no child support (I'm sure you can all think of a few names to call him!) Anyways, she went to the welfare office to see if she could get some assistance. Now mind you she was still working full time, but at $10.00 an hour, she was making "too much".
The lady at the welfare office flat out told her because she was not a minority there is no way she would get assistance! I couldn't believe she said that!
Welfare was created for the single moms out there. Now the single moms can't even get it. Like I have said before, I have no problem giving to those who truly need it. Even with as little as I make I would still give anything I have to those less fortunate. But I will not give to those who won't do for themselves.
Where I live you see the abuse a lot. You see the government housing where one person has the house and they let everyone and their mom stay there rent free. Girls who have babies and let their drug dealing boyfriend stay in the house and use it as a place to sell drugs. You know that income isn't reported!
It saddens me that this is even an issue, but it is ridiculous to give to those who won't do for themselves.
Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime. Anyone remember that??
I feel for you in your situation. You should have been one of the ones helped. Unfortunately, because of the backwards system we have in place, you couldn't get that assistance.
I couldn't believe that when I heard about it.
Definitely way out of line and they should apologize....but they won't.
Sorry you couldn't get more pity

I couldn't care less what you think! (nm)
I will live a happy life no matter what you think of me. Frankly, I don't give you a second thought.
Couldn't agree with you more!!

I couldn't agree with this more!
Those two men are heroes and shouldn't have spent one minute in jail. Why did Bush allow this? (It's just another example of why I will be glad to see Bush go.)
I couldn't agree more - it's very sad
To see a country that I served in the Army to protect and service. That I've worked my whole live (since 2nd grade working on a farm and later on to other jobs). My parents/grandparents taught me values, respect, honor, and duty. All of it is being eroded away. Some slick laywer comes in and promises everyone everything. He stands and lies to their faces and they keep following him. It is true that they say they are like sheep because they follow with no thoughts of their own. People will say, oh this has to be approved by congress or that has to be approved. Guess what Congress is now controlled by democrats. They will pass anything and everything produced by the O. You've got mafia type people now advising the O. He's promised them all something and they are demanding it, and not only in our country but our enemies too.
It just sickens me to no end that we did kiss America goodbye, and just a little over 1/2 the country feels this is okay. I too want my country back. Now just have to think of new ways to survive through the next 4 years.
However, I'm still waiting to hear about the outcome of all the lawsuits that are being filed (there are many of them) and he has to comply by 12/1 (I wouldn't even have given him that long - that's too much time to try to falsify a document - again). It also disgusts me too that so many people demanded to see McCain's bc, but they were okay with not having to see the O's. Certainly a different country than what I grew up in.
I couldn't agree more...
...with your post. I am truly beginning to wonder what the point of voting is. Is it just to fool the "masses" into thinking they truly have a voice?
I think a lot of Americans adamantly didn't want any more Bushes and didn't want any more Clintons. I'm feeling somewhat betrayed by Obama and very unhappy with his appointments so far.
This isn't "change." This is back to the same corrupt regime. 
I couldn't agree more, but I just...
...hope that some "homegrown terrorist" doesn't prevent that from happening and/or Bush doesn't find a way to declare martial law indefinitely. I just keep getting the feeling that something terrible is going to happen before January 20, something with Bush's fingerprints all over it. 
I couldn't agree with you more. (sm)
I know what Vietnam did to my ex-boyfriend. It's not just something that goes away in a few months. It lasts a lifetime and can even affect future lives yet to be born.
Believe me, I share your anger, and I don't even have a relative who is in the military. I hope your son comes home soon, safe and healthy. My heart goes out to you, and if I could find a ((hug)) icon, I'd place it right here.
And it couldn't possibly have anything to do...(sm)
with the fact that we've lost around 3 million jobs this year, and the rate of job losses is not slowing down? Do yourself a favor. When you get that check in the mail from the government that you so disagree with, why don't you just send it back with a note saying *Thanks, but no thanks. I prefer to wait for the trickle.* I'm sure you'll feel much better about yourself then.
I really find it hard to understand why people like yourself fight so hard against policies that would benefit you. In case you haven't noticed, the stimulus plan he is proposing IS the middle class bailout. How many times on this board did pubs say *where's my bailout* during the first bailout? And now those same people are turning their noses up and trying to act like they are above it simply because a pub isn't the one who is trying to fix this mess.
It's not the economy that's killing this nation. It's people like you who would rather divide the country than accept the reality that the other side might actually have a good idea. Nixon would be so proud.
I couldn't get a scholarship that was
set up by the owner of the company my mother, aunts and uncles worked for for 35 years or more. He set it up for the children and grandchildren of the workers. Where does it go? I, nor my children benefited from it, yet they refused to tell me where this money was going. I had a right to a scholarship, yet was turned down immediately without them even looking at my background.
Well said...couldn't agree more!

We couldn't afford for him NOT to run.
There is nobody else who could handle the multiple crises that President Obama is facing at this unprecedented time in our country's history.
The republican administration that has been in charge for the last 8 years practically destroyed this country from the inside out. Not to mention what he did to our internation image :-(
I, for one, am VERY glad that he decided that the country could not wait.
Couldn't agree more. Also, . . .
it would be a wonderful cash crop for not only the obvious reasons, but all sorts of products can be made from the plant: Paper, textiles, and even biofuels are just a few.
I couldn't agree more.
I personally feel that we have a lot of divorced parents and kids being raised by single mothers and these family values, etc. aren't being taught. Kids see their moms and dads dating different people. Woman having kids with multiple different fathers and men fathering many children by different woman. This is what our kids see. What else do we expect these kids to be when they are exposed to this stuff. Some kids are taught that they can't be successful instead of telling them they can be anything they want to be.
I think that not only should good values, etc be taught at school but I personally feel that the parents need to wake up and realize some of the monsters they are creating here. Too many parents rely on the schools to teach their kids things that the parents should be teaching them. Why parents rely on schools to raise their children.....I will never understand that.
Then on the other spectrum you have the well off families who buy their kids everything they want without teaching them how to be responsible with money and these kids end up being some of the irresponsible ones we have to pay for because they were never taught to save money to buy stuff. Instead it is credit cards, credits cards......buy now and hopefully have money to pay later.
