I think they should have fired anyone
that was involved in that crap. She had no right to do that and it would be nice if Joe the Plumber could sue. (I've been out of the loop on that matter for a while so don't judge me please).
Clarification. sm
I love all soldiers - my point was this lady's son was a career military man, I did not mean by my reference to "buck" soldiers that they are of less importance in anyway. O'Reily kept egging it on and finally asked this grieving mother if she had visited M. Moore's webside, to which she replied "I WILL NOW". LOL.
Thanks for the clarification
so a whole bunch of libs got together and google-bombed failure and miserable failure to alter the search engine results, and that's supposed to be impressive? All I can say is people who do this seriously need a life and/or a job.
Clarification.
I meant the part about cutting and running part when I said from your keyboard to God's ear. You can call it whatever you like as long as it gets US out of there.
Clarification
By you guys I mean you and the other conservative posters who have done the bulk of the posting on the liberal board in the past few days. I probably should have been clearer on that.
You do have a point about my posts and in some ways I would agree. However, as stated, it is not worth perseverating over and restating the same points repeatedly, as I have stated.
In the same league and someone's equal would be very close in meaning the very same thing. They would pretty much be definitions for each other. Look it up if you disagree.
Clarification
I am the OP here, and just want to clarify. I meant no harm posting this and I am sorry if I offended anyone. I don't like getting bashed for making a statement either. I didn't make any other comments about the two men. It's just one of those things, being an MT, I have always noticed the way words or letters go together. It was something that I saw, and I just thought it was really weird. I just wondered if anyone else had made that connection, since we are all in this business together.
Now go on and flame me, I could care less. You all think I did it to bash Obama. I didn't. Take it for what it's worth. I just thought it was crazy weird. I NEVER compared him or put him in the same class as OSAMA. Just made an observation. Leave it at that.
Just a little clarification here....
Bush was not against SCHIP. That program is still in effect today. All he opposed was expanding it ever higher up the income ladder.
Clarification....(sm)
What religion does with politics is abuse of rights. Yes, they should have the right to worship and do whatever within the guidelines of the law, but when it gets to the point it is now where every time you turn around the govt has to worry about how the "religious community" will respond it is obvious that those "rights" have turned into a lobbying force.
It is illegal for a church or pastor with nonprofit status to endorse any candidate, and yet all through the presidential election the church down the street from me (as did a multitude of other churches) posted signs all over the place about how Obama is the anti-christ, etc, etc. Exactly where do those rights end?
Also it was evangelicans who initiated the campaign to pass prop 8 in California and did so with huge donations not only from individuals but from the church as well. In that case the "church" actually facilitated taking away rights from people. They didn't think twice about that, and actually rejoiced in their victory, but when it comes to their rights its a different story.
Thanks much for that clarification!
Would be nice if the government stopped using SS for other things, because per my yearly statement, the percentage that will be left by the time I retire as scheduled keeps going down.
why not have him fired, I mean how dare he?
for that matter, fire anyone and everyone who ever says or does anything you do not agree with. There you go, problem solved. Maybe you could all go to Alaska to live and only allow people there who agree with you and you could have your own world while you are at it and never be bothered with the poor or the sick, you know - I mean, what nerve these people have right?
And the first shot is fired.......
by those, in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, spew things like "you are a nasty old hag arne't you?" How Christian.
The CANADIANS are fired up!
I've never fired it, but
I have used it to get an attacker to back off. I used to live in a bigger city and on my way home from work one afternoon, some guy jumps out at me with a knife and tells me to give him my wallet. Thank God for conceal and carry permits, 'cause I had mine right in my purse. It wasn't loaded, but he didn't know that. Needless to say he took off in quite a hurry - after all, he'd brought a knife to a gun fight. I live in a pretty podunk town now and love it, but the only need for guns around here are for hunting - which I don't. But I definitely feel safer knowing I have a gun and know how to use it just in case.
and he fired the head of GM (which sm
he probably needed to go) but Obama is sitting up there taking Air Force one and spending all this money. No better than the GM execs, the AIG execs, all of it. Transparency? What a joke he is!
tnx for clarification. I am finding myself
in a confusing new world. All these years I tried to look at others' point of view, but somewhere in there I feel like I have handed out all MY rights and might as well be rodney dangerfield getting no respect!
I refuse to conform and I just don't fit in," .......so he was fired!!
'TOO PATRIOTIC'?? That's reason for dismissal from a job? What the h@ll is this country coming to?

Not a slam, just a clarification. I post under sm here. sm
MT is his or her own person. Final post. DD.
Clarification...when one perceives attack I should say...
but then she views anything a conservative posts as an attack. Even when I tried to basically get along...and I did try. At least one of you on this board recognized that.
Have a good day, kam. :-)
This is what passes for clarification in W's 22% fan club?
That apples and oranges line of thinking does not compute (life in the US, Russia or Cuba). My brain cells do not connect along those same pathways. Let's try some logic.
Since we don't know what it going to be like (your words, not mine) under O, one can only speculate. Knock yourself out on that one. I'm not into that. Bush, however, has had his debut, 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th acts. The curtain is coming down and we have concrete evidence on which to base our individual takes on his regime. There is reliable data available (approval ratings, whose better off now than in 2000, the state of our economy, our standing in the world, etc) which suggests that for many of us, W has managed to single-handedly turn our country into something we can barely recognize. The hatchet job he and his buddies did early on with the Constitution is all the evidence I need to feel justified in my absolute contempt for the man and his legacy, not to mention the fact that pretty much nothing he has done has even begun to address the problems we face with terrorism on the international front and the economy, health care, the environment, etc on the home front. The decider to some, the destroyer to others.
Head of FEMA fired from previous job
Take a look at THIS info:
(source http://www.dailykos.com/story/2005/9/2/34622/68348)
Yes, that's right... the man responsible for directing federal relief operations in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, sharpened his emergency management skills as the Judges and Stewards Commissioner for the International Arabian Horses Association... a position from which he was forced to resign in the face of mounting litigation and financial disarray.
And what of that misleading White House press release?
'From 1991 to 2001, Brown was the Commissioner of the International Arabian Horse Association, an international subsidiary of the national governing organization of the U.S. Olympic Committee.'
I can't even begin to fact check the dates or IAHA's alleged relationship to the US Olympic Committee, because of course, the IAHA doesn't exist anymore, so there's nothing to Google. But it begs the question... how the hell did his prior job experience prepare Brown to head FEMA?
Well, judging by his agency's performance over the past few days... it didn't.

Apparently, experience had nothing to do with Bush's bid for the presidency, and so he hands out agency posts like lollipops to his friends regardless of their competence or experience also.
The result is that thousands die unnecessarily on many continents. No one ever gets punished for this. Instead they get the Medal of Honor or civilian equivalent. They get promoted.
The classroom is not an indoctrination arena. He should have been fired. nm

Air America just fired Mike Malloy...sm
MIKE MALLOY FIRED BY AIR AMERICA RADIO
There will be no Mike Malloy program today - or any day - on Air America Radio as we have been terminated. We are as shocked as you are. We are told its a financial decision.
More details to follow as we hear them ourselves.
They said it was financial - This is total BS. More free speech suppression.
I agree- that officer should have been arrested instead of fired.
But it's nice to see Dems sticking up for child abusers and drunkards. I guess birds of a feather and all that.
Remember when he fired all those air traffic controllers?
kinda like taxing the AIG bonuses.......
Clarification...do not allow dissention to their point of view...nm

Same to you, my friend!!
Knowing this is late, I hope you had the best day ever! 
OK. You are right. I am not. My friend
is not. Don't know why she would bring that up as we drove by gas stations in St. Pete, but obviously she was having a senior moment, was in an altered mental state or just flat-out lying...that is what it probably was, flat-out lying. I know it is important for the right to be right so I acquiesce. You are right and I am not.
MY FRIEND

Your friend must have been
hot.........

You my friend
scare me and millions of others with your so-called tolerance of death and disease for our children and youth. We should be hating it. AIDS and mental disease is not pretty.
Saddam US friend
Six months after the gassing of Kurds in 1988, the White House lent Saddam a billion dollars. In 1991, at the end of the Gulf War, US troops stood idly by while Saddam's presidential guards ruthlessly suppressed the uprising by the Kurds that Poppy Bush encouraged and had called for. In 1980, Saddam was made an honorary citizen of Detroit, Michigan. He was our friend back then, even though we knew his blood thirsty ways. We even supplied him with WMD, which we then destroyed with fly over bombing through the 1990's with sanctions placed on the country to weaken it even more. We also were friends with Osama in the 1970's when we had him and Afghan freedom fighters fight against Russia as we did not want Russia to have control of Afghanistan. In essence, Osama was trained by our CIA for war.
friend in Vietnam
I had two friend who went to Vietnam, one returned..and yes, he too was traumatized emotionally. He returned to his parents house and I used to stay over all the time as it was a *hang out house*..had a pool, large yard, you name it..we all hung out there (smile)..anyway, John was in Vietnam in 1969..he used to sent tapes home to his parents and we would all listen..when he returned to his parents house, forget it..you could not wake him in the morning, you would make a noise or call his name and he would jump up ready to fight you..He lived like this for a few years then he married..Since then I lost contact but I can tell ya, this guy had major issues trying to reconnect with **civilization**..I ache for the soldiers who are now fighting..the dead, the maimed and the emotionally and spiritually destroyed forever..FOR WHAT??????
I had a friend on Right Nation who went down there. SM
He lives about an hour away. He did not gestimate anywhere even close to that.
I'm a friend of Bill!
from the uber-liberal state of Massachusetts. I was just responding to previous post of why Observer posts on this forum.
You keep calling me your friend...
...why is that? I hope you don't generally treat your friends this way.
As far as me singling people out to torment -- it would only be you and it would be singular. Plus, I didn't "single" you out, just saw your posts on a PUBLIC forum and as I said, they looked kind of mean and cruddy. However, I would say you are the PLURAL stalker. Come one, come all you will take them on and condemn and mock all that folks say on the liberal board!! And then accuse them of all being the same person. Lots of paranoia goin' on in that ole brain of yours, doesn't sound very healthy at all!!! No, sir!!!
Yes, and Obama has at least 1 friend
nm
Well, Obama does have a friend who could help him
nm
That's her imaginary friend (nm)
x
All you can do, my friend, is vote.
Everybody gets one vote (hopefully only one) to make her voice heard. One side has to lose. Be prepared either way. 
I have a friend of mine who has a
few nieces who are biracial and they are absolutely beautiful kids. I think some of the cutest kids are "oreos."
Obama's friend

close friend
My best friend had an abortion when she was a senior in high school. She was afraid to tell her parents. I took her and her boyfriend paid for the procedure. He did not go with her. Fast-forward 24 years. She has 3 children and has been married for 20 years. Does she regret her decision? Some days she does. Would she do it again? She says she would. She has talked about it with her teenage son and hopes that her children will never have to make the choice. She is a conservative Christian now (Assembly of God) and she still fights for abortion rights.
Gourdpainter, can I be your best friend?
Just kidding... But I like the way you post. I've found you far more interesting than any others on this board that use monikers. I don't use a moniker because I don't feel the need to, but I also agree to please let this man have some dignity while he mourns his grandmother.
No President will be able to make any changes overnight. The President is only as smart as the people around him.
Obama has stated again and again that it will not be easy but that we all must come together. I have not heard that once from the RNC, but only comments to bash a man because he may have a few beliefs that are different. He has a beautiful family (without all of the skeletons) and he does not plan for Americans to lose jobs but rather to make more jobs here and give tax credits to companies who hire people right here in the USA. He does have 2 daughters that will need an education and to prosper on American soil; does anyone not see that or is it just me?
I have a friend in the same situation...sm
His father worked for GM and died several years ago, leaving my friend a nice trust fund and health care benefits and pension for his widow who currently is in a long-term care facility. My friend, who is an MT and cannot afford insurance and is in bad health himself, told me that when his mom loses her benefits at the first of the year, he doesn't know what they will do.
I don't know if blame the government for this mess as much as I blame mismanagement by the automakers with their big executive salaries and perks and insistence on manufacturing super trucks and huge SUVs. It seems to me that more could have been done to stem this before it got this far.
Your friend probably just guessed
I doubt she would have any credible knowlege. Obama came out of nowhere. The first time I and most other people ever heard of him was when he ran for Senator. I recall the media referring to him as an "up and coming" politician.
The financial collapse just sure came at an opportune time too didn't it? I shudder to think what's ahead. As I've said before, I'll put my faith in God and His will WILL be done in the end.
I have a friend who is there too!! I have to check on her now. nm

The terrorist's best friend.
Is the Taliban on your Christmas card list as well?
You seem to have swallowed the leftist lies hook, line, and sinker.
Let's not forget to honor those hard-working, industrious Nazis while we're at it.
And the Sudanese guerrilas.
And the lonely, struggling serial killers and child molesters and suicide bombers.
Nevermind....my friend says
that won't work because marijuana is too easy to grow so government can't regulate it and tax it. My bad.....didn't know that.
I'm with ya, friend, thanks for posting, actually, ....sm
my post had nothing at all to do with "being poor" or "having it bad," etc., because even though we can't vacation and restaurant every time we want, WE PUT OURSELVES on a budget so we would not have to live on credit and loans, which by the way helped to contribute to the downfall of this country.
Oh, God forbid any put off spending if they do not have it, WE WANT IT NOW has been the battle cry for a long time, like spoiled stupid children, (except children HAVE an excuse), so people took out credit cards they could not pay off, mortgages for a house they knew they could barely afford, etc. Now we are all paying the price as people default, banks default because of it, and so on.
No, I feel I am lucky indeed, even though a big chunk of our money goes not to "serious debt" but to meds for: asthma, diabetes, migraine, systemic lupus, Sjogren's disease, and rheumatoid arthritis, even with insurance that is EXPENSIVE. But, I still love my life, I have a mom I adore, kids I adore, a husband who has stood together with me for almost 29 years now and we really love/like each other, we have a modest home, great neighbors and friends....and if we wait because we are paying on tuition bills, or too many meds in one week, whatever........
This is not about ME, or about Ms. perfect out there, it is about a single post with a PROPOSAL, AN IDEA, which just might be AN ANSWER among many that will get more people off welfare, more peole paying into the tax system, less people needing assistance (WHICH COSTS US BIG MONEY, and there have been many railing against on this board, as I have also), my God, what ever happened to sticking to the issues, disagree away, why be a snotty child and as usual, revert to personal "digs?"
A friend was doing very poorly
for YEARS, losing weight, constant debilitating pain, weakness, n stamina, low energy. She knew, as most of her friends knew, that it was probably rheumatoid arthritis (family history). It was painful for us to watch her get out of her car and try to walk. She became skeletal, and had to go without treatment for a couple of years, avoiding an official diagnosis, until she finished school, internship and certification to become an LISW so she could get a job with insurance which would then cover her. Had she gotten the 'official diagnosis' prior to that, she may not have been covered. Now, with treatment, she is doing much better.
But that was my point about genetic testing. You can insure your 2-bedroom shack for less money than Bill Gates's mansion. You can insure your Nova for less than his Rolls. But unless you do genetic testing or exclude pre-existing conditions, we are all in the same boat on health insurance coverage. His bypass surgery (not that he can't afford to just write a check for it) will cost just about what yours will.
