canvasing my city (live near a large university) area for O. It was a very dynamic experience. I met so many people who are excited about the election. I really enjoyed being a part of the campaign for change. I just stopped in to see how things are on the board. Unfortunately, all I see is a lot of bickering from same 3 or 4 people, so I just want to say hi to my fellow dems. I am going to be spending time productively getting out the vote. Have a campaign worker coming from out of state to stay in my home while he works my swing state. Go Obama!

Ill go there this weekend and bring
you back some posts. I just went there once and could not stomach it. I havent checked out the Dem underground board yet.
Documentary this weekend
This was on last weekend and will be repeated again this weekend. Good luck trying to condone the contents in this show.
The drive-bys will NOT report this. It's amazing that literally anyone would want to get news that someone reportedly smarter (that's sarcasm, but true) edited, twisted, and omitted.

What other side this weekend???
I've been on all weekend and it is more drone of the libs praising their god and arguing with anyone who doesn't agree with them.
seems to me thousands spoke this weekend
Seems to me most of the country takes Cindy Sheehan seriously and are behind her 100%. This weekends protests in DC, CA, NY, Ohio and other states prove it..When you look at the anti war protests compared to the pro war protests, tells you what the majority of the country wants..ending of the Iraq war.
He was on the weather channel (his speeches were) constantly on the weekend. BUT SM
I am probably lying.
It that garage sale is held every weekend - see message
it's a business. Just like the regular religious gatherings with the congregation. There are different building codes for different business. When you have a business you have to abide by fire codes, etc. If this couple that wants to have their regular business meetings in their home gets a permit then I have no problem with it. I have to have a business license for my MT work, they should have to have a business license for their regular business meetings.
You cannot compare this with someone who once every few years has a yard sale or tupperware party or BBQ.
The people from this article are conducting a business without a permit.
If I were an independent voter receiving McCain's garbage phone ad this weekend
You're making dinner and trying to sit down with your family to eat after an exhausting work week and pouring over your 401K loss report. You have just found out that the $42,000 you had accumulated as of last spring is now worth $26,040. You've just turned off the burner under the hot veggies when, BRRRINNNGGGG, the phone rings. It's the McCain campaign delivering an urgent message to you in the privacy of your own home, assuming you never listen to network news, read a paper or go on line and are unaware of their latest breaking news....telling you that Barack Obama is a terrorist who hangs with other terrorists, on the off chance that it might capture your previously uncommitted vote. If it happened to me, I would be up with the chickens Monday morning at the early voting polls telling every single peson within earshot that I had just voted a straight Dem ticket. How dare they?
wish i had just spent it!
I could have had some real fun with that money, traveled, or paid off the mortgage or bought my retirement home or.... etc., etc., etc. instead of just watching it disappear before my eyes. Wish I had done that. Now I can't stand to look at it; too depressing. Retirement now is only a place I won't ever get to.
I have spent a ton
If we are in a slump, it is not my fault. I have been buying up all these bargins. I am done shopping for the year.
This man spent 5 years of sm
his life in the Hanoi Hilton as a prisoner and he didn't walk away from serving his country? Now he is worth waiting in line for. Rock stars come and go. Patriots are here to stay.
I spent the day envisioning
the future where neither dolled up pigs nor pet goats would distract us from national issues. I pledged with renewed fervor to work to have the administration that was in power at the time of the disaster be held accountable for their inactions and to work to elect the democratic team to begin rebuilding our nation.
you have actually spent time
reaching DMorris? Sad to hear that.
Buchanan is on MSNBC and Chris Mathews tries to suppress a smile when Buchanan twists himself into a pretzel. Rachel Maddow throws her head back and laughs. the segment she has for him is called "It's Pat" and he is too old to know she is making fun of him.
Oh, PLEASE don't tell me she spent a wad on her HAIR!
.
I hope all of you who have spent
so much time bashing Obama are happy with your part in this. Put some blame on the McCain/Palin couple for fueling the hate too. I expect it to get worse. Shame on all of you.
Your time may be better spent
discussing the matter with those on this board who say there is no such document....
you all would do better to decide on whether you believe there IS a document or there isn't.... which is it?
He spent most of his time in senate
running for president. It is a shame the people of socialism did not even get proper representation from him. Anyone else with a job to do would be expected to actually DO the job. What's he going to run for if he actually does win the presidency? World Socialization and kissing cousins with terroists?
$13,000 was spent on a makeup artist
for month of September. I think that is even more wasteful because she is so pretty. Turns out a guy was the shopper for her clothes. He has some nice taste, wish he would shop for me. Particularly liked the white Valentino jacket she was wearing at the convention maybe, not sure. Also loved the black blouse she wore while visiting the world leaders in NYC.
The money being spent on the inauguration
At least that is one way to look at it.
If Paulson had spent that money....(sm)
from the first bailout on saving these institutions instead of padding CEO pockets, would this be an issue today?
Personally, I hope capitalism does go down. It has never worked and never will.
What about the Billions Bush spent
Giving millions to companies without overseeing how the money was spent. You think that is responsible? You should at least give Obama a chance. We had to suffer through 8 long years of Republican ridiculousness... Can you not be gracious enough to allow this man some time? At least he has a plan to help American PEOPLE - Not INSTITUTIONS...AKA Bush Cronies.
Perhaps your time would be better spent reading the
the Global Poverty Act Obama wants to shove down your throat..... you want the United Nations telling you or your family how to raise your children?
And for the poster who believes our constitution is better in the hands of Obama, ask yourself why he wants to destroy it and let the United Nations dictate our country......I don't recall seeing that anywhere in the constitution.
Now, it takes a while to get through all the throat slitting sickening stuff in there he wants for your country (United Nations' country)but you might understand where our constitutional rights are heading........
Cheney spent SIX TIMES MORE on...
...entertainment than Bush????
Well, maybe that makes sense. He does seem like someone who is pretty difficult to entertain. 
Cheney spent SIX TIMES MORE on...
...entertainment than Bush????
Well, maybe that makes sense. As I remember his snarling face, he did seem like someone who is pretty difficult to entertain.
I wish Bush WOULD have spent money
We would still have a budget surplus more than likely.
He spent virtually no time in Iowa
campaigning, so that may be part of the reason why. I hope he makes a good showing in other states. I'm glad he didn't throw in the towel yet, either.
The numbers that Biden, Dodd, and Richardson put up in Iowa are not representative of the support they actually had (especially Biden, IMO). The way the Iowa caucus is set up for Democrats unfortunately doesn't reflect the true support because of that "viability" rule. Republicans don't have that.
Did you forget about the years he spent in Indonesia?
Where he studied the Muslin faith and prayed every day? Or did you conveniently forget that?
Sorry, I'm just getting sick of all this one-sided stuff and it's not just aimed at you.
Man! I spent only a half hour looking at that site!
I could have spent more time but I'm was limited to the half hour. This man spent a lot of time deciphering and examining the certificate. I wonder if they will call on him to testify (probably not).
And why were you not screaming about the trillions being spent in Iraq????nm
nm
Well....if Planned Parenthood spent as much time and money....
offering contraception as they do abortion, it might make a difference. They make a killing...pun intended...on abortions. Millions of dollars. And can't afford to keep a clinic open 7 days a week??? Where is all that money going? I love their clinic rules...we will take a check for any service EXCEPT abortion. Cash up front for that one.
It was, in fact, the Memphis Planned Parenthood clinic site I was looking at.
Great site for tracking how the stimulus is spent. sm
The projects are not part of the stimulus bill, but are candidates for federal grants once the bill is passed. You can also make comments.

A trillion dollars being spent, 1100 pages
and the American people aren't allowed to look at it let alone the house and senate don't get time to read it? WTFrig is that all about?
I totally agree with that, we need to put constraints on money spent....nm
nm
Wouldn't that money be better spent on CONTRACEPTIVE funding and education sm
world-wide? How about we stop unwanted pregnancies before they occur?
