Couldn't we get some blue contacts and work some voodoo, too? That cluck in Brazil would never know the difference.

LOL - Hazel eyes - we never get a break
is it me or is the whole world going nuts!
Hazel is that catch-all eye color,
not brown, not green, not gray, sort of indeterminate (too long a word to put on the driver's license, so they invented hazel.)
speaking of powerless
Obama gets voted in and Dems run the House, Senate, and WH. Use your imagination to see how far left this country goes.
If people want to live in socialism, leave the USA as it was established (capitalism). Go to France, etc. since it's such a great way to live.
Once either one is elected we are pretty much powerless...
to hold anyone's feet to the fire. However, the Obama adoring masses here will make excuses no matter how many mistakes he makes or how many promises he does not fulfill. Toe that party line. If you criticize him for not doing what he said he would do, you will be a lonely voice of one I'm afraid.
Yes, I will be watching McCain/Palin to see if they keep campaign promises. Because if someone does not find a way to work in a bipartisan manner, both parties are going to continue messing us over and doing what is best for their pocketbooks and political careers. They need to forget party after the election and get about the people's business. And only one candidate has said right up front he will be on them to make them do that. That is why I am voting for him.
From a national security standpoint, I think Obama is a huge, huge mistake.
That being said...yes, I will be watching.
Conservative Repubs rendered Clinton powerless
. . . because they were more interested in impeaching Clinton for getting head in the oval office than allowing him to carry out his presidential duties. Blame the republicans for a lame duck presidency in the last years of the Clinton administration.
Obama is shrewd, savvy, honest, and the repubs are not going to be able to touch him. They'll try . . . but it's a waste of time.
BEAMING WITH PRIDE AT BEING AN AMERICAN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 8 YEARS.
  
Well your in a crowd of a very few
I am glad you and YOUR DH voted for him for those reasons and that his race had nothing whatsoever to do with it. That's why you should vote for someone, but you know for a fact that most people voted for him because of his race and nothing else. Plain and simple. Yeah, I "hope" he does turn around things and makes it better for all Americans (right now I'm seeing it getting better for only a few select - but like I say it's only a month - gotta give him time).
BTW - I did vote for him in the primaries. I believed in him back then. Only until after the primaries ended did I start hearing the truth. In the main election I ended up voting the the constitution party, so I voted for neither he or McCain.
With the crowd you hang with, you probably

And a hush came over the crowd.

what I meant was, this is being said from JM crowd? (NM)

And a hush came over the crowd.
Thanks for the reminder.
Bet we'd recognize each other in a crowd
Spent most of my adult life in Texas but never lost my Arkie accent. We go to NE OK all the time and they don't sound any different than I do.......now my husband was born and raised in Chicago but he's lost some of that accent. LOL He loves pinto beans, CFS and mashed taters and white gravy. He better, I cook it.
That "soda" thing just drives me nuts too. Hubby has learned that "coke" is any soft drink..even his Dr. Pepper. When people want a soda I always wonder why they would want to drink Arm & Hammer!!
Judge not does not mean go with the crowd
nm
Yep, the wait-and-see crowd
has not much to say. We waited. We saw. None of this surprises anybody who watched anything other than CBS, NBC and ABC during the campaign.
And remember, Clinton was impeached, but remained in office. Throwing the bum out is a separate step after impeachment.
so you don't think over 700,000 people are a crowd?
There are over 300 cities participating in these tea parties today. There are thousands and thousands at each of these events.
If you don't think there were that many, well then you weren't watching.
If you put them all in one city like they did with Obama's inaugeration I'll guarantee you there are more than were at the inaugeration.
Yeah, have you seen them talking to the crowd?
nm
Your crowd booed a man in a wheelchair.
nm
tell the Hollywood crowd that...they always promise to leave, and never go....nm
Agree. The booing from the crowd today made me
nm
bad toothsayers are the jack-o-lantern crowd - gum flappers!

I couldn't get in...crowd already exceeded the fire code.
So, after parking two blocks away and trudging to the party, the fire officials kept us out because the fire code only allows 300, of which there were more than that inside. Then the cops told us we couldn't congregate outside either due to traffic and not having a separate (outdoor) permit.
Not exactly what I'd hoped for since it was a wasted trip for me, but still wonderful.
McCain Camp Buses In School Kids To Fill Crowd
Surely this information is incorrect.
The most cringe-worthy political moment of the day, so far, came when Sen. John McCain called out for his new buddy Joe the Plumber to stand up at a rally in Ohio, only to be greeted with confused silence. Joe the Plumber wasn't there.
But that rally featured another embarrassing moment, one that illustrates a far more troubling dynamic for the Republican ticket. The McCain campaign actually had to bus in school kids from the surrounding area in order to fill the event. As reported by MSNBC:
A local school district official confirmed after the event that of the 6,000 people estimated by the fire marshal to be in attendance this morning, more than 4,000 were bused in from schools in the area. The entire 2,500-student Defiance School District was in attendance, the official said, in addition to at least three other schools from neighboring districts, one of which sent 14 buses.
This happened -- as if a reminder were needed -- less than a week out from the election, when the heat of the campaign should be drawing record crowds.
Looks like a pretty good size crowd at the Alamo and in Sacramento and in Georgia.
Guys, I know you all worship at the feet of the Obama false idol, but for God's sake turn the channel every once in while!
