Are you also the type who...
believes he didn't do enough to prevent 911? Because it seems people want it both ways.. Protect me and don't let anything happen to us, but for crying out loud don't DO anything that might be unpopular or make somebody mad. You can't appreciate the difficult position? If a suitcase nuke showed up here and was traced back to Saddam you'd be saying look, there was all that evidence and intelligence from countries all over the world and Bush ignored it and didn't depose Saddam. He really can't win. So he was bold and made a move. More than some presidents would do, lest they find themselves down in the polls (which at times seems more important to some people than doing the right thing). Maybe if Clinton had been a little more proactive during the 90s, while Al-Qaeda was growing and continually ratcheting up their attacks, 9/11 could have been averted. Who knows.
I would like to have had the same type...
questions asked of Bill Clinton when he ran for Pres the first time having been only the governor, one week after he started. He would have done no better, and he was running for the #1 spot.
She was good. She didn't fall into any of the traps he tried to lay for her...including the 3 times he asked her about hypothetical about Israel bombing Iran's nuclear facilities. He tried his best to trap her. She didn't bite. I just wish we could have a nonpartisan person interview McCain, Palin, Obama, and Biden, just ask a simple question not meant to trap and let the person answer it...and not badger them when they don't like the answer trying to get the answer the interviewer wants. Sigh.
But can she type?
I'm talking about the above poster's comment about Palin being "smart and good-looking." No one is contesting her intelligence (her readiness for the office of VP, maybe, but not her overall intelligence), & I'm pointing to the fact that being "good-looking" is a criterion that's only being applied to the woman candidate.
Do you really believe this type of
Inspired and enlightening as your beliefs are, I do not believe everyone on the planet in the last 2000 years has had the opportunity to accept or reject Christianity. Personally, I just could never believe in a god who condemns his children for eternity due to an accident of birth... nor can I imagine (without a shudder) spending eternity singing hosannas next to the likes of you. Did anybody get into heaven before the crucifixion?
You mean like "sometimes I think" - type
personal attacks? You have no moral high ground on which to make that demand.
Again, I am so afraid I can't type
I meant vote against Obama. You people have got to stop scaring me with these stories of Muslims taking over the world. How will I ever sleep at night?
How is it a stereo type?
It's true. When my husband worked for Mediacom Cable the people in the government housing would have the cable in their son's or daughter's names (some of them were 5 years old). Others buy cars either with cash from under the table or through a relative or friend so it is not listed as income or assets. There is no stereo type in that. White people, black people, hispanic people, they all do it.
I walked into the home of a child that I teach at youth group last week to bring some food. His mother doesn't work, no idea where his father is, but there is a huge flat screen tv in their single wide trailer! Talk about mixed up priorities. Can't wash clothes because the washer doesn't work, but we sure as heck can watch ESPN!
That's the problem with welfare. There are so many people on it we can't possibly keep enough caseworkers to check up on them! Instead of starting new programs on top of this one, why not create some jobs by hiring more caseworkers and investigating why these people are on welfare for 5, 10, even 15 years? What is keeping them from working? Is it legitimate, or is it like the white guy that used to live next door to me "I got a messed up ankle" yet he's out in the road playing street football. See, no stereotype, there are deadbeats everywhere, of all colors, shapes, and sizes! :)
This is exactly the type of comments we don't need.
Discuss issues but don't post snide remarks. Simple as that. Worship has no place on this board.
And the more I see of this type of intolerance..
the more I fear for our civil rights. People have sex. There is war, murder, rape, mutilation, etc., all over this world and it has been this way for eons. Take your religiosity to a deserted planet and you can squeeze your Bible all you want. It is MY right not to live under your rules or beliefs.
I wish I could type 1000 wpm.
I would have stated who and what they are debating. Kerry was furious. Sen. Sessions (R-AL) doesn't seem to want to work with anyone on "the other side" either.
Sen. John Ensign (R-Nevada) had a really good speech. He went through the whys and why nots of how this whole mess started. He is willing to work with the other side but he stated that the other side has to work with them, too, which so far, is not happening. He stated that the stimulus package was pushed through the house without any debate, without anyone seeing exactly what was in it, and it was the wrong thing to do. He doesn't care that O wants this passed by President's day. It has to be worked out slowly so they don't make the same kind of mistakes that they did with the last stimulus package.
It's not just tax cuts the pubs want. They want some of the spending in there, too, just not the most ridiculous items. They want the infrastructure in but not just 3% of the total package spread out over 4 years. It wouldn't make much of a difference.
Now, on another subject, I had MSNBC on another TV. Surprisingly, they were only allowing sound for the debate when the democrats are speaking. Hmmm.
they will just say he can do other type of work -
My BF cannot do anything he knows how to do because it is all physical work and he has so many limitations imposed on him by the doctor; however, social security said that there were jobs he was capable of doing and will not give him benefits.
OMG - now I'm laughing so hard i cant even type!
LOL
How hard is it to type McCain? Seriously!
.
I did...so angry I can't type straight!...nm
//
I'm so scared I can't even type straight
I meant attic, lol!
Militia type? Because I don't believe Obama...
I don't fill in the blanks like his supporters, and I don't believe in redistribution of wealth? Interesting assessment.
It is probably in a "community type center" in the
apartment building. In my town they are held in the fire station, schools, community centers, etc.
Could only take a few seconds of this piggy-type man
I have no idea how anyone could listen, much less sit and watch this oink-oink looking man. I saw for a nannosecond and his face screwing up like he had just let one go- might have just needed his fix for the day though.
Okay, don't click a link - type in the URL. (sm)
The URL for the site I referenced is:
http://www.taxdayteaparty.com
You can copy-and-paste it into your browser or type it in, whichever you prefer. I can assure you that there's no virus at the site (my browser checks this), or I wouldn't have recommended it.
I may add.... the Perez Hilton type!

I'll type slower so you can understand
Durbin's proposal simply RE-STATED EXISTING LAW. Let me rephrase that: Durbin's proposal simply RE-STATED EXISTING LAW. It said nothing about "opening our American media up to foreign countries." What are your sources? Here are mine:

You really ought to peel your mind away from Fox News and the rest of those jokers some time. Communist China running my local TV station? Geez Louise, you're the one who needs to get a clue.
Oh Lord I may be laughing too hard to type.
North, get a grip woman! Are you and A. Nonymous some kind of comedy team? You’re feeding the straight lines to AN and she (he?) is getting the laughs? Wow are your buttons easy to push. I sure hope AN (the drunken cheap scotch/irish nazi) does not stop posting, because this is just too much fun to watch.
Yeah we get it. You’re black, educated and you speak English well. You write well so you probably speak OK too. But you just don’t read so great. Where in any of these posts did AN say you personally were uneducated or did not have a work ethic? Where is the part about you not speaking English? Did you see the word ebonics and just stop reading? If you care so much about all people why are you not standing up for the other two groups mentioned - do you have something against hispanics and hillbillies?
You have to be very worn out from carrying around that big chip on your shoulder. Why don’t you put it down and stop taking offense at remarks that were obviously not aimed your way? The topic was career mooches and freeloaders. You seem to be an MT and have a job or be on the site looking for one. Nobody called you anything - why so defensive?
I type for a local mental hospital
and I go in and get the tapes and bring them home. They don't use a big company for their transcription. I do this as a side job actually. The pay is much better than a big MT company as well. I enjoy typing those type of reports as well.
oops, I posted with the wrong name - just me did not type the above - it was in response to just me

Fine. I will free type it next time. Sorryyyy.
Sheesh!!

That's why most of the states are red. sm
The majority are just blind sheep and ignorant of facts. And that's why Fox News, the so-called conservative channel, is #1. People are just so stoopid, especially those big dummies, the conservatives. That's why they keep getting elected. It's just that the majority of Americans are too dumb to know any better.
You are right, when someone states that
about "hating me since 1996" one does question. But there is information in there that can be factualized. For example, leaving a small town of 5000-6000 people 20 mil. in debt is something that can be verified (I have also read that elsewhere) and that does not seem very conservative to me.
Just because information comes from a blog (though this 1 did not), does not mean it has some facts in it. And no, I don't mean the blog of kos or the way right website of audacity of hope.
I bet she knows how many states we have though!!!

Do you know what states?
I can guarantee mine isn't included. He's blasting all over the state how much money we are getting and what it's for, then turns around and states what HE's going to spend it on, which doesn't include anything that is in the stimulus plan.
which states
Can anyone tell me which states those are?
Dear Red States
Dear Red States...
We've decided we're leaving. We intend to form our own country, and we're
taking the other Blue States with us. In case you aren't aware, that
includes Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan,
Illinois and all the Northeast. We believe this split will be beneficial to
the nation, and especially to the people of the new country of New
California.
To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states. We get
stem cell research and the best beaches. We get Elliot Spitzer. You get Ken
Lay. We get the Statue of Liberty. You get Dollywood. We get Intel and
Microsoft. You get WorldCom. We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss. We get 85
percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get Alabama.
We get two-thirds of the tax revenue, you get to make the red states pay
their fair share. Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower
than the Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families. You get a
bunch of single moms.
Please be aware that Nuevo California will be pro-choice and anti-war, and
we're going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at once. If you need
people to fight, ask your evangelicals. They have kids they're apparently
willing to send to their death for no purpose, and they don't care if you
don't show pictures of their children's caskets coming home. We do wish you
success in Iraq, and hope that the WMDs turn up, but we're not willing to
spend our resources in Bush's Quagmire.
With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80 percent of
the country's fresh water, more than 90 percent of the pineapple and
lettuce,
92 percent of the nation's fresh fruit, 95 percent of America's quality
wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners) 90 percent of all
cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur
coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven
Sister schools, plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT.
With the Red States, on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88
percent of all obese Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92
percent of all U.S. mosquitoes, nearly 100 percent of the tornadoes, 90
percent of the hurricanes, 99 percent of all Southern Baptists, virtually
100 percent of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University,
Clemson and the University of Georgia.
We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you.
Additionally, 38 percent of those in the Red states believe Jonah was
actually swallowed by a whale, 62 percent believe life is sacred unless
we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44 percent say that
evolution is only a theory, 53 percent that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and
61 percent of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals
then we lefties.
By the way, we're taking the good pot, too. You can have that dirt weed
they grow in Mexico.
Sincerely,
Author Unknown in New California.
Probably will return to the states
As Lilly posted, the decision of termination will probably eventually return to the states..Interesting times we are living in..
Aren't you the one who WANTS states
I don't mean for that to sound rude, just an honest question. I seem to remember you saying you wanted more power to go to individual states, so do you agree with the states having control in this case? I appreciate the information and will check it out. I already know my state's income eligibility requirements and will post them below if anyone is curious. I found them at mt.gov.

At least he knows how many states are in the country..
he is running to be President of. Hee hee.
At least he knows how many states are in the country.....
he says he can lead. At least his #2 has not said publically that he is not fit for the job. At least his #2 is not badmouthing his campaign ads. At least he is not buds with domestic self-confessed communist terrorists. At least he did not study the Alinsky method of Marxist socialist organizing. At least he puts his country first, not his party. Sorry...no way,no how, nobama.
Why states' government is just as
Just to narrow their choices down to who they want instead of letting the people decide, as in a free democracy, even the states are changing their rules without the knowledge of its citizens..........
http://www.ronpaulforpresident2008.com/editorials/URGENT_Party_Switching_Deadlines.html
not necessarily. I don't know about other states, but...
here in Michigan they want to allow voting online, not needing to actually be "absent" to get an absentee ballot, and no ID needed. And they were also tossing around early voting like Ohio did. If this is all allowed like the Dems want, then all the "dead dems" in Cook County will be moving to Michigan to vote, and then move back to Chicago.
What is scary about all these "proposals" is that you have the opportunity for out and out voter fraud the likes of which will make Cook County politics look like a Sunday school picnic. Especially if they decide to do this in all the states. JMO though.
Maybe denial is one of his 57 states.
nm
because she states if people
worked their butts off . . . I don't understand how two people working their butts off comes out to $24K. That would be 40 hours each at minimum wage to make that little. We have two kids. My husband works 56 hours a week and I have been averaging 30 hours, more if there was work available. Next week, I am taking on another job, so I will then be working 50+ hours a week and DH will still be working 56 hours a week. That is working your butt off.
Don't forget about the states. Why
do you think Rendel hosted the Governor's meeting in Phila. last week? They want some money too, but Rendel is just covering his tracks by calling this meeting because the state is almost bankrupt after giving every nickel away of the road repair money to 2 cities and just last week before the meeting, he gave another couple Million or Billion away for something else.
Really dumb, 57 states out of 58!!
xx
"there are 57 states in the us"
x
Do you think they knew the U.S. has only 50 states, too?nm
Obama/57 states
That is so false (and keep your nasty inflammatory racist comments to yourself)
Didn't he say he had been to 57 of 58 states...
