Thx for answering...anyone else?! nm
..
Thank you for answering me. I really
was starting to wonder. You have to realize that was one aspect of the overall picture. White men are unfairly treated in other ways and if you buy into commercials, they are the dumbest of the dumb, apparently. They are always the butt of the joke, usually against the wives. You can't help but wonder how much of this affects the kids. I really hate some of the commercials; they show things I did not particularly want mine to see. As far as I am concerned, victoria's secret is soft porn and inappropriate for children to see. My own mother last week said she wished the men and women would go get a room and quit flouting their viagra on her TV! Well, the haves will continue to look out for themselves and their kids, just ask the cops who arrested the daughter of the mayor of Houston for DUI. This is the guy who started the safe tow in Houston for those who broke down. you know those cops had theirs covered when they arrested her, but she still got off.
The single mom thing is really hard, I had 4. It does not help when they have to listen to the others at school who get every little thing their hearts desire and yours have to do without; they will be better off later and I already hear that from mine. Just the other day, my oldest told me, "Mom, I don't know what I would be doing right now since being laid off if we had not been so poor growing up - I would be losing my mind". good luck to you.
Oh, one other thing. I am seeing first hand some of the treatment now that more minorities are gaining power and some of them are worse than the good ole boys ever thought about being. I went into the workforce when laid off and took a test, made 100, that was last October, and they have never pointed me to a single job. But I was in there long enough to take in the fact they were happily helping others. I resent it and I guess some would call it payback. I think americans may have to deal with the fact that our quality of life is taking a nosedive. We will be forced to bundle up like they used to do in order to survive.
Thanks for answering.
I have been of the mind that the people promoting this line of objection possibly would never truly accept that the birth certificate is/could be legit. I appreciate that you took the time to explain not only what would alleviate your doubts, but also why you have those doubts.
In return, here is my justification for believing that his BC is legit or is a non-issue. First is that he has been in politics long enough and his presidential aspirations were known for such a length of time that if he did not meet this particular requirement, someone would have actually proven it a long time ago, especially a fellow Democratic rival. (Pols seem to be most vicious with their own at times.) Also, to me at least, the actual location of his birth is irrelevant. His mother was an American citizen, and although at the time of his birth the law required her to be 4 years past (I believe) the age of 16, later amendments were passed altering that requirement retroactively to a period beginning far beyond and encompassing the year of his birth.
As far as the "natural-born" portion of requirement meaning born on U.S. territory, well...I was born in Scotland while my parents were on vacation (and have continued to surprise them ever since). Does that mean, since my father is Scottish and my mother American, that I am ineligible to ever run for president since I was not born on American soil? I am American according to our government and have never had to apply for citizenship even though I was born in a foreign country. To me, natural-born means born to a citizen that did not require a naturalization process to become a citizen. (I sure hope I stated that in a way that makes sense.)
Also, there is some component of grandparents' citizenship that comes into play, but I have never had reason to look into that. I will though, when I get the time, and see if that has any relevance in this instance.
Thanks again for answering my question. I appreciate your honesty.
What is so hard about answering a
nm
Not really answering your question but ...sm
I am blessed to have lived in both Hawaii and Vermont, both VERY liberal states, both of which provide heath care to all residents in different ways, summer Vermont and winter Hawaii is my dream.
Your not answering her question
She asked how can you not think it is right for Israel to defend herself.
If you are answering to me, my personal
beliefs are strongly Christian, but I am a Christian who also believes wholeheartedly in the separation between church and state, FYI. I was answering the person who is scared. Christians should not be afraid of anything, if they truly believe that God is in control. Just my opinion.
So, you are answering my question with
a question. And, you were not the questioner, you were the one making the following statement:
The former administration has to take the blame if S- O-M-E of these innocent, now released or soon to be released detainees are going to do any harm to you.
Since you feel that some of the detainees are innocent, would you want them to live next door to you? It's a simple question....
No one is even talking to you. We are answering OPs question to us (sm)
No one is infringing upon your rights. You are interrupting our conversation with your opinions. If OP wants your non-Christian opinion, she can ask you.
He was answering the questions posed to him - nm

I have no problem answering your question
If "they" were going to take my money and give it to someone else of course I wouldn't like it. This garbage that is being spread about Obama taking "your" money and giving it to someone who doesn't work is just that, garbage. He has never suggested any such thing. His "redistribution" of wealth, is in the form of taking back the windfall tax cuts Bush gave to the rich. He then proposes to give more tax relief to the WORKING middle class. Anyone with half a brain and minimal intelligence should be able to understand that.
It might behoove you to read the post before answering.
Thank you for answering the disciple/alter ego question....
thought bookworm sounded too much like you not to be you.
Thank you for answering her post with a liberal talking point. :-) nm

Typical, retreat without answering a simple question under ANY of your many names...
demean, belittle, name-call, deride, post under different names to support your view because no one else will...and as far as granting my wish...never asked you leave...you said you were leaving to hunt a job. I said see ya when you get back. That is hardly asking you to ride off into the sunset. You are so similar to Mr. Obama...birds of a feather and all that...ask a simple straight-forward question and you dodge it like it was on fire. Guess your superior intelligence just deserts you in the face of a simple question...or perhaps even you, from your lofty perch, have enough common sense to realize that there is no bigotry to what I said. You are far more bigoted toward conservatives and people you feel are inferior to you than I ever could be...and certainly more bigoted than my stance on immigration.
Still with the plaigiarism thing...good grief, you DO love to belabor a point, especially when you are wrong. Someone has always said something before...and in all your diatribes I did not find one original point. Read the same thing on leftist blogs, in articles, and on and on and on. Not one original thought from the great brain that is GT/GW/BW/FPJ.
See ya...and yeah, it HAS been fun. lol.
And no, I did not discount that FPJ could have been speaking on her own...just said if she was, she was plagiarizing you. You seemed to be so concerned about plagiarizing...not even taking into consideration that your lectures are about 98% plagiarized (by your definition...your words, not mine). Did you really think people wouldn't google?
Take care. I am still considering spiteful little vixen stationery...might even get T-shirts. :-)
Hear, hear! He is an exceptional person for an ....sm
exceptionable time. They say that God is watching us from a distance and I believe that is true. I think that Obama has a good pure heart, extraordinary intelligence, does truly want to improve our lives, and my prayers are with him. How about that he has Bobby Kennedy's desk (my hero).
Same BS, different day to keep everyone scared.
At a time when even so called ‘respectable, unbiased’ news (organizations) MSNBC (cough cough) are covering the growing possibility of Government involvement in 9/11, on a day that Israel decides to go ahead and bomb Beirut proper, when Lamont wins on an anti-war ticket (Bush accused competing Democrats as being weak on terror), we suddenly hear of this ‘plot’ to kill thousands on airliners. What is the probability that the timing of this disclosure was carefully crafted to deter antiwar sentiment during stateside elections, create doubt about government involvement in 9/11 and foster complacency about the destruction of Lebanon?
Don't be scared...sm
“When viewing the tape of Obama’s “57-states” statement objectively, it is plain to see that he was pretty much operating on coffee fumes and airplane exhaust at that point in the campaign (early June). I wonder how well any of us could speak if we had been to all but 2 states in the union in less than as many days? His entire statement was halting and sporadic, certainly not characteristic of his normal style of speaking when he has had adequate sleep. Stop and think, just for a minute. How many times zones did he flew over, back and forth from coast to coast, and how often did he appear in 2 states on the same day? Would it have been humanly possible for him to sock away 8, 6, or even 4 consecutive hours of sleep while keeping such a schedule? His eyes were beet red and, when he stopped before he said the “7”, they actually rolled back and forth and up and down (doll’s eyes), like my own do when I have highway hypnosis. My impression was that the pause was taken because he could not even remember if he had said “50” or “40” since he was so zonked out. If he had said “40”, then the “7” would have made sense (off by one, if he had missed 2 states, or maybe he had missed 3 and 47 would have been correct), again, considering how tired he looked and sounded. Try to ignore all the pathetically desperate spin that is out there over this just for a moment and give this some real consideration. He is a human being, flesh and blood, with physical requirements (food, water, SLEEP) and limitations. Any real human being probably should be able to understand how this could have happened. One thing is for sure. It did not happen because of senility or Alzheimer’s.
To suggest that Obama does not know how many states there are in the union is absolutely absurd. He is a Harvard graduate who is running for president. He knew how many delegates he needed and he knew how many states those delegates would come from. You can make anything you want out of a statement if you take it out of its context. This just goes to show you how low his opponents are willing to stoop with their personal attack machine, especially when they are not able to effectively argue ISSUES. Has he actually exhibited the same PATTERNS that are described in the other posts about McCain (and clearly apparent)? Think about it, minus the spin, and be honest.
If you are really worried and want any real answers about whether Obama is all for show without any real substance, stop trying to find them in chat rooms, on CNN, Fox or YouTube. Clear your brain out and start from scratch. Without prejudice, start with HIS words. You can find them on his website, under issues or in his speeches. Read and listen to HIM, not his detractors. Try his books. Read some unbiased, factual biographical information (actions speak louder than words). Like the OP said, “rise above” the media. They want to put you down in the gutter and keep you there. Don’t let them.
About his past associations. How much do you really know about them? Where did you hear about it? Did you consider your sources? If you are referring to the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, you will find some of those answers in his books as well (written way before the controversy erupted on CNN and Fox). Caution. There are no direct answers. You will have to do a genuine search for them, but they are there. That, too, requires an objective read and the ability to put yourself in someone else’s shoes for a few minutes…and in this case, the shoes of a young biracial, international American man, confused and seeking clarity on what it means to be black. If you give this an honest effort, you will not find the same answers that the media outlets are trying to shove down your throat. You certainly cannot get an accurate portrayal of his character from cheap, filthy gossip, innuendo and speculation. If you want a make a real assessment, eliminate the middle man and go one-on-one….then make up your mind.
If all you hear is that he would raise taxes (another tired, tired conservative battle cry), then you have not been listening. Bill Clinton did not balance the budget with astronomical tax programs. He did it with spending restraints and eliminating pork and budget bloat. If we were not bankrolling the Iraq, Afghanistan and the war on terror ($859 billion dollars so far), tax hikes would not happen at all. Diplomacy is much, much cheaper and a whole lot more effective.
Why would anyone expect the health insurance plan to be free? Question is how much would it cost, will the coverage be better or worse, will it be accessible and affordable to more or less than the now insured. Before you slam the plan, read it. He is keeping no secrets from you. You have only to look around to other developed nations and their health care systems and compare them to ours to know just how much room there is for improvement.
Ask yourself these questions. Does anybody ever really “win” a war? Have our wars made us any more safe or secure? Doesn’t avoiding war and preventing war have any appeal to you at all? Don’t you think that, in the 21st century, we just might be evolved enough to figure out some other solutions to our conflicts and threats? For example, just how much good do you think it will do to put us back into a cold war with Russia? A guy who looks into Russian eyes and sees KGB does not know how to do anything else but that. Careful what you ask for.
Because they are scared.
And it's the nature of the beast!
scared now
i am not one that can see one thing and that just turns my mind right around when it was so decided already. BUT, in this case, I dont know what to think. I am SHOCKED. I cant believe it. I wanted so bad to vote for O. I am so upset. I cannot vote for O. I just dont feel right about it as a Christian. It doesnt matter if he doesnt support these views of him. He knows it is being done and is not doing anything to correct peoples worship of him. If he is a God fearing Christian, he should be doing this first thing. That is my opinion, no one will change that. Now I am not voting. Not at all. I dont care if it is wasting my vote, voting for either one at this point is a waste. Not going. NOPE.
You are not alone, there are many more that think that way too. be scared, be very scared. nm

I believe him and I'm scared.
Anyone here ever been the recipient of Medi-Cal/Medicaid benefits? Fasten your seatbelts..
I have a lot of friends and acquaintances from Canada who migrated HERE because of inadequate health care in their own country. Months-long waiting lists for routine procedures, days on gurneys in the halls and waiting rooms of the ED, lack of anesthesia for childbirth..etc., etc. Sounds crazy but it's reality.
We have a lot to look forward to.
Wow! Now you really scared me! Is it really THAT bad?..nm

GT things everybody's scared of her
Not me. My theory is that gt is a person who doesn't have any power over anyone and comes to this board to be some kind of faux dictator. It's really pretty sad and she's almost single-handedly shut down any meaningful conversations with her hateful pukings.
I'm not scared by gt one bit. I've figured her out. She's really a very pitiful hate filled person who wouldn't have been allowed to stay on the board in the old format.
Somebody is scared! Too funny.
Maybe you should be scared, because more than likely a big scary, American-hating Democrat will be elected by all of us God-less, America-hating liberals. LOL! I know I'm scared with George I have no brain W. Bush running things, so maybe it is your turn. Liberals are not godless and do not hate America - they just have a different view than yours - gasp, how horrible right? A different view in America! Maybe you are the one that lives in the wrong country.
And how hypocritical of you to say that you grew up on welfare but don't want others to have that option! How do you know you would be either alive or healthy if it hadn't been for the welfare that took care of you? The ignorance of all of your statements astounds me, but this is America after all, and you have a right to your own opinions, obviously.
Some people are so scared of anything that isn't
 Do some jumping jacks.

Not scared at all....even your O said not to be cocky.....see ya on....
Let's just wait till "real" people get in those booths....no polls can accurately predict the outcome, this time included.
I am running scared
Of course you are right, Obama is closet Muslim. He was been faking practicing Christianity for 20+ years, even going so far as to have his daughters baptised just to fool us. Wow, why didn't I realize it until just now.
Oh, and the Muslims really hate the Jews. I better go find an attack to live in when Obama is elected.
Thanks so much for your help in getting me to see things so much more clearly now.
Here's something for you scared folks. s/m
Here in NW Arkansas I've had the inside scoop for some time on a situation that ought to scare the living dickens out of everyone who works for a living.
I have known for some time that Don Tyson was going to come out of retirement and take over the reins of Tyson Food again. The news story broke yesterday. By the way, Don Tyson is a rabid Republican. None of the following is heresay, I know the guy.
Most of you probably find Tyson products in your local grocery. If you eat at McDonalds you eat Tyson chicken tenders.
In the farming area where I live probably 75% of the people have either worked in some facet of the chicken industry or they have retired with a fortune they made in the chicken industry. Most people contracted with Tyson to raise their chickens. Low income workers worked in the hatcheries and chicken processing plants. Not to mention the people who had good jobs in the corporate offices. Within the last several years Tyson replaced their low income workers with illegal aliens. They started building their own chicken farms and imported Mongs from (Minnesota or somewhere) to run them at much less cost than their contract growers but they are so big they didn't replace all of their growers.
What some of you call the "low lifes" worked in this chicken business, a dirty, nasty job. Some of them did this because there is nothing else they can do. They are uneducated, some are not too bright but they WORK. I know one who can't even read and write. Most of them now drive 25-30 miles to Fayetteville to work in fast food, as janitors or whatever low-paying job they can find and you see their old jalopies by the side of the road where they've either broken down or run out of gas. These "low life people" don't want handouts, they want to work. I feel sorry for them.
Now the news flash? Tyson has bought chicken processing plants in Argentina, Brazil and China because "the cost of feed is making it cost prohibitive to do business here." This is going to not only take jobs out of this country, it is going to leave many farmers who are still growing chickens (and pork) not only unemployed but with thousands of dollars in debt because of the investments they have made in chicken farming. 20 years ago it cost $100,000 for a farmer to build a commercial chicken house. I shudder to think what it costs today. The plan is to raise chickens abroad and process them and bring them home to America.
So all of you who work for a living whether you work in the chicken industry or another, had better be scared. John McCain from his own mouth proclaimed himself to be the biggest free trader ever. Free trade hasn't worked too well for Americans has it?
The inside scoop is buy Tyson stock now. Not me. I will NOT profit by costing American people their jobs.
I've changed my plean from "God Bless America" to "God Have Mercy on America."
How does this relate to the election? For one thing I don't think we need another "biggest free trader ever" in the White House.
Thanks for reporting this, but I am scared.
I know from 9/11 that Osama wanted to hurt us financially. In fact, I was waiting for a terror attack 2-3 weeks after our financial crisis to hit us in the US. Then with the elections and all, I forgot about it, but now this is brought up again. Did you hear about the Russian Nuclear Sub and had 20 deaths reported on that sub? What were they doing?
I must admit we should stock up on supplies like food, water, etc. Remember the 2000 crisis known as Y2K? I went to a lot of meetings about the Y2K. I know we are not having a Y2K problem, but it did help me to understand on what to do if power went out, food famine, money, etc.
I know all about the Palo Nuclear Power plant outside of Phoenix. In fact everything about it. Even visited the silly place. Too much knowledge actually. Care to know about it, email me. I know about the electric grid and how we could be out of power for months and how the grid is all connected to most states, except Texas may pull through it. I know why we have to have 3 day supply of water, because that is how long it will take someone to get to your neighborhood to give you more water each day in case you need it. Gosh, I even bought books about Y2K and should probably read those again because it tells you about how to handle a crisis.
Hope you live in a good neighborhood and better get to know your neighbors. You all might have to come together some time down the road during a crisis, otherwise, you could be at war with each other, stealing things, using guns and all because of fighting over things. I am thinking of worst case scenerio of course.
I think the right is scared cuz we've got em
If they don't get OVER that fear, they just might END UP with 'the runs'.
Nah, not scared. Just disappointed.
That the ignorant have elected the inexperienced and we're all gonna spend the next 4 years paying for it.
Not scared. Just disappointed.
That the uninformed have elected the inexperienced, and now we're going to have to pay for it for the next 4 years.
If I were as scared as most on this board
I would definitely invest in a bomb shelter, and go hide out until the presidency is years gone by. What a bunch of crock. Scared. You sound like a bunch of little sissy girlies, not women. Do you still have to hide behind your mother's skirts. Ohhhhh, I am so scared- (shaking going on here).
saw him on Bill Maher and he scared me!!!
Running scared? Ahhhh, don't think so
when McCain loses. The only way he will win is if they cheat - which we all know is possible - just ask Gore.
You people are scared to death of her.

shock - blatant - scared
Picked up the emotional tone of this post. Recent study said that those who startle easily at small noises usually vote republican. Individuals who are on a more even keel usually vote democrat. Interesting to see the intertwining of theory with reality.
Scared of the map? Check out the post
and THEN wait for that election. T-minus 10 and counting.
I'm so scared I can't even type straight
I meant attic, lol!
I never saw so many scared people in all my life. s/m
I must be living on a different planet, listening to an Obama poster. What he actually said was "WE can change American and WE can change the world."
if you want to be scared, go the the mcdonalds at walmart....nm

How pathetic. I am not scared by intelligence.

News flash for you.......their women are scared
They are afraid to even move the wrong way for fear of retribution. THey are afraid to let their daughters go to school because they fear what will happen to them on the way to school. Of course, the women will treat you with respect. The women aren't usually the problem. It's the beliefs the men have forced down their throats and those of their daughters. Don't misinterpret respect for fear, fear of doing anything that could get them beaten to death. There are some more liberal areas where beliefs are not as harsh and families are not so demanding of their women and daughters; Saudi Arabia and Iran are two of them, but even Iranian women are coming under attack again and are fearful of even crossing the street.
Like I have been told by Muslim women in this country who are no longer under the control of men from those countries, they feel such a relief and do not have to fear for their lives every day. They will tell you their sons are taught from a small age to chant verses of hate over and over again, brainwashing them. Only those that are lucky enough to be in a more liberal environment and even leave the country abroad for education purposes realize the difference in the teachings from other religions, where love is actually taught.
More scared of congress and senate than Bush.

More gutter trash, no substantiation....dems are so scared...

And my politics and faith are hand in hand. Plus I'm just answering her question.
