And I am likewise not surprised you are voting for Obama. (nm)

Who was rude? I just said she sounds young. You are just mad cuz Obama is winning
so everything i say is hateable from your point... well you can kiss my grits lady...you cannot come to my victory party... no snotty argumentative loser rednecks allowed.
Yes! Finally I feel someone who represents me!
An intelligent, working mom, including a special needs child (which I also have). She truly does bring change and hope, and I am so proud of the Republican party today. I just brought my 8-year-old daughter over to the television and showed her and told her, be especially proud of being a girl today. You truly can do anything.
So much for McCains saying he represents change...sm
He now has Karl Rove working to elect him. That's change? Didn't he leave Washington and the White House with his tail between his legs?
Janeane Garofalo spoke today. Glad she represents
nm
And what's left of that, Obama wants to tax you
@
Not surprised at all. Scary, but not surprised.
God help us all get through the next three years.
I'm surprised that you're surprised.
You really thought voting for the O was going to produce a miracle, that things were going to be different? Better, maybe? Wow.
Not surprised at all by the violence. Only surprised
People are p****d, especially the middle class. They can't bend much further without snapping. My prediction is that if the US gov'mt. keeps letting all the bank and stockmarket criminals off with just a slap on the wrist, eventually the public is going to take matters into its own hands. If I were that guy who bilked people out of millions in that Ponzi scheme, I'd be very, very afraid. He should be in jail if for no other reason than his own protection. I'm willing to bet that in the coming year or two, all sorts of s**t is going to start hitting the proverbial fan.
Rude, rude post. (nm)

No. I'm saying that Bush left Obama a lot
disastrous years. Obama simply needs a list of what is most important and a truckload of Hefty bags.
Oops, left out Barack Hussein Obama
in the above post.
you mean left wing....it's a left wing ding website on the messiah....the right wouldn't bothe
Yes, I just bet you are surprised. nm

Thank you! I'm not a bit surprised
unfortunately. 
Why am I not surprised?
Is anyone really surprised
by the ***leak*** of the NIE document. I remember Bob Graham, senator from my state, Florida, standing on the floor of congress and predicting this almost verbatim. Many of us agreed with him. Many who did not have changed their minds over the years. I don't find any of this **breaking news.**
Now, why am I not surprised?
But as a self-professed "Bush fan", I would expect nothing less.
Are you surprised? sm
Just more of O's "transparent" tactics. When the questions get tough, he hides behind his standard "I had no idea that was going on" statement.
I was always taught and have always believed that you are known by the company you keep. All of his associates, past and present, have been crooks, liars, bomb builders and just basic scum bags.
I would be surprised if it did.
At this point, the House Repubs need to propose a new bill, since the old one was too unpopular for even the Dems to sell to their constituency.
But the Dems have to save face by not letting the Repubs get credit for putting together a more favorable bill.
I suspect in the end it will be a bill quite similar to the one already voted down, with a few more consessions in the taxpayers' favor.
Of course, both sides will take credit.
Both sides will blame the other for the crisis in the first place.
And both will be corret.

Ha ha! Why am I not surprised?!
If nothing else, this election campaign sure has been ENTERTAINING!
I'm not surprised
to hear you bring God into it. You're who Julian Jaynes was talking about when he talked about the unevolved faction of humanity, the ones who have to have literal interpretations of the Bible because they have an under-developed consciousness and have to recreate the "voice of the chief."
If Jesus knew about the offensive slime you spew, he would never stop puking.
And by the way, Obama has said a number of times that he will stop giving tax breaks to companies that offshore.
I, for one, am not surprised by this...sm
I always thought that Obama was a socialist, about two steps from being a marxist, on his way to being a communist.
If true, this goes to show exactly who and what Obama is about.
Chilling, indeed. No wonder I can't believe a word that comes out of his mouth. Whenever he's questioned on certain issues, he's too busy trying to sound like not what he is, but still fails miserably.
He sounds like someone hiding something, and it's not pretty.
I'm not surprised
you envision and embrace the negative extreme of everything, given the whole fire & brimstone thing. Good grief. It must be miserable being locked inside that kind of paranoia. You have my sympathy.
I would be surprised
if you had not heard at least a few names on this list, which is, by no means, exhaustive.
Many of the most famous serial killers (e.g., Jeffrey Dahmer, Andrew Cunanan, John Wayne Gacy, Henry Lee Lucas, Ottis Toole, etc.) were homosexuals, but they became widely known due to the nature of their crimes or the identities of their victims, not because they in any way represent serial killers generally.

Why am I not surprised...(sm)
The pub way of thinking on this is to go ahead and let those workers lose their jobs, then save the auto industry, and then they can hire back those workers or others without any job security, benefits, etc...
Under republican rule, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer (and that obviously hasn't worked out so well). So, who on this board is getting richer, and if you are getting poorer, can you really afford (financially) to be republican?

Yes, it surprised me.
Normally, equality (except for Fox) and sense in her posts.
Can't say I'm surprised........... sm
but I do find it a little ridiculous that they would come down on a Bible study group and not the men's Monday night footbal groups or poker night groups or Cub Scout meetings, etc. This is but one more sad example of how our rights are being stripped away little by little. And before anyone says that Christians should meet in churches only, I would ask what will you do when your rights as a citizen are infringed upon?
HOW RUDE! SM
You people have no right to talk about anyone else being rude! You have a corner on the market.
Know what is rude
Rude is sending our brave military into harms way for nothing, rude is lying to the American people about the reasons, rude is causing the biggest deficit our country has ever seen and spending away our surplus that President Clinton gave us, rude is dividing this country when he claimed he was a uniter not a divider.
Rude
They come over here and pretend to be holier than thou and then run back to the Conservative board and trash us. Go read it. It's quite amusing. While you're at it, why not read the entire board and count the number of civil posts that seem to be written by someone over the age of 5. You don't have to hurry, though, because all their juvenile hateful tirades will be there forever and will never be deleted.
You should probably read the posts on this board first, because as we've all seen during this week, they stand a good chance of being deleted. As has been demonstrated on the Liberal board, you're permitted to have your freedom of opinion and expression......as long as it's the "right" one.
You are very rude. sm
I was not agreeing or disagreeing with anyone, but trying to have a conversation. I was respectful at all times. It explains why there are only a few posters here. Good day!
AG has been very rude lately... :( nm
That was rude
I was simply saying I didn't know what you were talking about. Care to explain instead of being insulting?
How rude you are. nm
,
WOW that was rude!!!
I guess the radical dems on this board (not the regular, respectful, nonbashing dems) will never listen to reason or a participate in a good debate because they know they are right always and forever, no matter what the subject.....what kind of democracy is that? NOT.
okay, I am rude, but
You don't get a vote. It is an American election. And even though I am so liberal you all would puke, I am tired of our American arms stretched so far over the world that we don't take care of our own anymore.
Now that's just rude!
Just because someone doesn't believe the way you do doesn't give you the right to be so mean! Get a grip on yourself!
You would be surprised how much of what you have said I agree with.
Why surprised that he owns a gun? sm
For a long time, the deep south was largely Democrat and everyone there owns a gun. Al Gore hunts. So does John Kerry.
I should not be surprised by your response. sm
But I have to admit it sickens me more than a little. People like Ward Chamberlain, who has not been found to be a plagiarist, a liar (he is NOT Native American) and he made up his service record, among other things, don't deserve to be defended. Unless you are a socialist and have no problem with liars and thieves. I guess that says it all.
Surprised, but not disappointed
I was a little surprised with the outcome, especially Edward's finish, not at all what I expected. I would be happy with an Obama or a Clinton nomination.
I haven't paid much attention to the republican candidates, yet, but as things progress, you can bet I'll be watching.
Thank you kindly. I was surprised...
by last nght's media coverage of this same debate, particularly with regard to Whoopi and company on The View. Even the most adept of media hate-mongers were relatively civil and talk show guests seemed to be exhibiting an unusual degree of sensitivity.
Whoopi's statement about how the blacks have "taken the word back" from those who would use it to inflict pain was in line with what I was trying to convey. However, equally as impressive was the response by Elisabeth Hasselbeck, a young woman born the same year as my own son (1977), in the post civil rights generation who never really experienced the struggles I described in the previous post.
She was obviously genuinely confused and in real pain as she contributed to the conversation. I find myself haunted by her question regarding "how do we explain this controversy" to our children?" As a soon-to-be senior, I have trouble putting myself in the position of having learned about the civil rights movements from some civics or history text book.
On the one hand, I find myself believing that it is very important to pass this awareness down through the generations that follow us. But when I see that kind of pain in a young woman who is obviously trying her best to understand these issues, I have to wonder if there will come a day when we should try to leave it all behind us and lay it to rest.
I am inclined to believe that for as long as this job remains unfinished (the elimination of discrimination and sustained equality for all Americans in all spheres), it is important that we do not forget, but I am biased because those were MY "good ole days". Some Boomers still take a great deal of pride in having been a part of such vital social change as was accomplished during the 60s and 70s, while others among us seem to have forgotten where they came from, having sold out principles for profits.
In any case, I would be interested in any feedback in this regard, especially from those who learned about my hey days in a history lesson.
surprised to see Mc admit
that the US tortured prisoners. He said we won't ever torture prisoners AGAIN. He stood around and allowed that to happen -- he the man who wants all to remember his pow experience?
I am surprised! You went to Church?....
.
I admit I am surprised at your age.
I think the majority of the older people realize what is coming. "Conspiracy" isn't exactly such a bad word for it.
I'm really surprised in Ohio...
I figured Brown would vote yes, but am surprised Voinovich voted no - he's very much a RINO. I guess he figures he's got nothing to lose now that he's decided not to run for reelection.
Not surprised! How depressing
nm
What surprised me about the backing was
it was on a very, very conservative talk radio, same station that sean Hannity, Neal Bortz on- in fact it was during the Neal Bortz show that this was heard. I was surprised to hear it, much less there so when you say where I supposedly heard it, you are way, way off. As far as the tea party, I had not watched the channels you mentioned in some time. I watch local from Atlanta and none of those channels played it up, neither Fox or the others. That day on all local channels in Atlanta only about 5 minute coverage then. I flipped that day between the others, CNN, MSMBC, Fox and the like and Fox was the only 1 to have it anything on.
