That the mega-wealthy are trying to "hide" their wealth. Clothing catalogs for the rich are pushing "dressing down." Those fancy cars are getting garage duty. They did the same thing during the depression - no one drove their Duesenberg (sp?), i.e., "made to order" cars. They can sit out decades in relative comfort, they have high-tech security on their homes. Wouldn't it suck if we didn't dare venture out of our homes? What kind of "freedom" is that!!!!

THE AYERS/OBAMA TIMELINE: (Version 1.0; a work in progress; dates are approximate)
1987 William Ayers meets Barack Obama
1988 Ayers solicits Khalid Al-Mansour to raise money for Obama's Harvard law School education
1989 Tom Ayers and William Ayers get Obama a summer job at Sidley & Austin (where he meets Michelle Obama); Ayers' wife Bernadine Dohrn also worked at Sidley at about the same time as Barack and Michelle.
1993 Ayers places Obama on Woods Foundation
1995 Ayers makes Obama Chairman of Annenberg Challenge
1995 Ayers hosts a coffee klatch for Obama's political debut (Obama falsely claims this is when he met Ayers)
2007-2008 The structure of Obama's presidential campaign increasingly comes to resemble an Ayers-designed national "community organizer matrix" straight out of Maoist theory. This is not merely a presidential "campaign." Obama's organization is the first installment of an ongoing movement being paid for with tax-exempt contributions to his campaign, approaching half a billion dollars.
2008Obama In response to ABC News, Obama tells a national TV audience he was "six years old" when Ayers bombed federal buildings, and they are only casual neighborhood acquaintances. A lie.
Me three...he recites a great speech from the monitor......casual speaking is definitely

According to the author, an American who has lived there for the last 4 years, there are issues, the most obvious a tax rate that seems crazy to us here (52%). However, as the article pointed out, that 52% includes social security (which we pay in addition to our taxes here), and there are no state and local taxes. Real estate taxes are lower. Mentally, the author states, it was a jaw-dropper when he first learned the tax rate, but it took little time for him to start having tangible benefit from that tax rate.
Frankly, after reading the article, it sounds as though the biggest problems with the Dutch system are coming from non-Dutch people moving in and complaining about a system that has worked for the natives for centuries.
columnist noted
Gore had his presidency taken away by the Repub-stacked Supreme Court and went on to win a Nobel Peace Prize. GW was handed the presidency and started a disastrous, pointless war. Keep on keepin' on, my fellow Dems. Our time is just over the horizon. Maybe this time the country will appreciate the wisdom of the Clinton presidency(ies).
As noted previously...(sm)
Blair house is about 70,000 sq feet, comprised of townhouses, 110 rooms, 35 bathrooms. I doubt the visiting has-been from Australia (who, by the way, got kicked out of office because of aligning himself with Bush) would really need that much room. There were no other visitors scheduled.
This guy is also supposed to be a good friend of Bush's. If that's the case, why didn't Bush just ask him to stay at the White House? Maybe there wasn't enough room there either.....
As noted in a discussion below about this...(sm)
I don't care what his views are or what he is. What I do care about his what he teaches kids. Sending them to his conservative website for homework in my opinion is way out of line.
Of course, this has nothing to do with the language used by the poster above, which is what I was talking about before you tried to change the subject, as usual.
Should be noted that this is not a scientific poll
It's one those click here to vote deals. Not credible in the least.

PS to where's sam/web sites
I realize I'll get bomb-throwers, but I could care less. I will probably just ignore it. These people are literally drunk on Kool-Aid!
There are other forums for overall conservative thinkers. If you go to activitypit.com, it's for RedEye fans (like me). The show itself is very funny in my opinion. Of course, they do have some libs on there, but they don't behave anywhere near like these people. I've become very good friends with a couple people from there. I found out one of them lives in the same city as me. Talk about a small world! Here are a couple links from RedEye's Activity Pit:
There are many more. Here are a few off the top of my head:

pajamastv.com
newsbusters.org

Of course, let us not forget:
rushlimbaugh.com
marklevinshow.com
hannity.com

Another thing many don't know is that The History Channel is owned/run by libs, so watch with caution. I personally prefer War Stories with Oliver North on FNC. Tammy Bruce was formerly president (or whatever they call it) of NOW, but not now. She has a very interesting story to tell about their ways of doing business. I wonder if any libs will look into this. And imagine this, a conservative lesbian!
So enjoy, you few conservatives!
Here are some others: breitbart.com, http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/, townhall.com,
The other friend, who lives in a very liberal state, was thrilled that she and her husband met ONE conservative couple.
Thanks - going to check out those sites
Thanks for the links.
There are also other far more credible sites...sm
which give valid information as to why it is not real.
The whole point to this, GP, is not JUST the birth certificate. This plays into a much larger picture in which Obama appears to be unqualified in terms of foreign policy and experienced in so many other areas. It has to do with past associations and shady current assoociations, who is backing him, how he rose through the ranks so quickly, some if not all of his campaign platform and plans for this country, some of the statements he has made that sound positively socialist if not marxist and the way the American people have been so capitivated by him. It's not even about McCain being POTUS because I can tell you that, even though I voted for him, I have some doubts about him just as you do about Obama. It is about the safety of our nation, laws being upheld on EVERY level (yeah, I know all about Bush, this isn't about him) and the future of our nation. The BC is just the tip of the iceberg.
There are two sites I checkout
Snopes - which is liberal and Truth or Fiction which is conservative. I figure if I check out both sites I've got it covered.
You avoid the nutball sites? LOL. nm
nm
Oops - your are correct - there are two sites
I had his website saved in my favorites, and that is the one it took me too. When I googled McCains name I saw the one you mentioned (plus I clicked on your link to make sure I wasn't getting different things).
The website I listed has been the official website for a long time. I was even on there just the other day. This is a new one. However, it's still a positive message. Compares the differences between the two without candidates without lying about Obama and has a buttons to the side with different links. Still nothing negative. I don't see anything regarding his family, which is fine, I'm not voting for that reason. I'm voting for what he will do for our country and how he will help us to prosper and be a great nation again. Pretty positive message there.
Again I commend her daughter for getting involved in politics. Always good to know both sides, what each politicians policies are. How they have voted in the past, what they have done in their careers and their experience (or if they even have expereince). It's great for kids to know both sides. Even greater if they learn about the other candidates too like the Independent, Constitution, Green, etc. There are more than just two parties. I'd actually like to see the Republican and Democratic party done away with. They have BOTH done a lot of damage. Especially these past couple years have just gotten worse and worse.
Insead of patronizing me, post some of the sites please. nm

I can't remember the exact sites, but will do some more checking - sm
But I do know that 1 of them referred to an Anchorage newspaper article at the time of when it happened; I don't think it was like a recent article in the Anchorage paper. I am terrible, I read stuff and try to get it all straight and forget to write down or take note of where I saw it, but I will look for it again later when I am done working.

I visited this site. My brother, who is schizophrenic, goes to sites like this. sm
Sorry, but I don't care for this kind of site on the extreme right or left. It has no believability.
Meaning, I read and try to find informative sites

Don't have to search
I have just noticed in reading the boards over the past month or so, you often bring up cigars and sex in the same sentence.
No searching necessary!
If you know some good democratic blog sites, please respond to this post with the links. nm
Thanks.
google search
The simple minded are so easily entertained.
Do a Google search...
apparently the liberal media shielded you well. If Bill Clinton was fair game, he had no one to blame but himself. The saddest thing of all is that he never learned from his mistakes.
Do a Google search

A search of the archives from this board
Every single time you are challenged, you cannot dial it back even for a moment until you have had the last word. It is pathetic to think that you actually believe that you can bully your opponents into submission, but not suprising. Par for the course of a right-wing fanatic.
Again, search this board's archives to see

That is not what I said. I will have to search for the specific case...
in this case, the school had a rule banning any kind of religious symbol. A girl wore a cross to school and she was told to take it off and not wear it again. The same school tried to ban a Muslim student from wearing a head covering on the same basis. The ACLU took the school to court (actually I think it was settled out of court) on behalf of the Muslim student to be able to wear her head covering. They did this without being hired by the Muslim student. They did not argue on behalf of the Christian girl at the same time. The Muslim got to wear the head covering but the other girl still could not wear the cross. That is what I am talking about. I did not say that the ACLU sought to ban it. I am saying that they took on the cause of the Muslim girl, but not the Christian girl. And to me, that is discrimination.
I don't know it to be a fact, but I think if that Christian girl specifically asked the ACLU to support her case they would have refused. The last thing the ACLU wants to do is argue on behalf of a Christian to practice Christianity, even in something so small as wearing a cross to school.
And yes, there are many schools who ban religious symbols because of that gross misinterpretation of the first ammendment...the free exercise thereof totally left out, and the words separation of church and state supplied, which do not even exist in the constitution.
Get on the net and search. Apparently there are a lot of schools...
who ban such things.

partial-birth abortion
n.
A late-term abortion, especially one in which a viable fetus is partially delivered through the cervix before being extracted. Not in technical use.
The following is my OPINION on the whole issue:
PRACTITIONERS OF THIS BARBERIC PRACTICE SHOULD BE TRIED AS MURDERERS by the state in which they live.

Please do google search on Bob Nardelli
and you'll see whose fault it is that Crysler has to close all of thier plants. You can search Bob Nardelli-Home Depot and Bob Nardelli-General Electric.
If you do a search on gender dysphoria
as I have, you will learn that human sexuality occurs across a very wide spectrum, not just gay, straight or bisexual. My 10yo son never picked up a truck or gun or whatever you might consider "boys" toys. Even before he could speak a word he was playing with dolls. That was nature, not a choice. At this point, we cannot say for certain that he is gay; we can only rely on his statements that he is angry and sad that he was not born a girl. If I thought "fixing" him would make him happier, I would do it, but all my husband, my family and I can do is provide support, love and a really good therapist to help deal with those feelings of isolation and loneliness.
auditors search for unrecorded liabilities
because just because it's not on somebody's books doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I wasn't saying anything about proper protocol or transparency. I was only saying we still owe it even if they hide it. Sheesh.

A search warrant under FISA prior to 9/11
As you can see from the article cited below, Holder did not have that evidence. He was not the only person responsible for "not allowing" the laptop contents search. Seems there was a problem with intelligence sharing between the US and France. His decision was also defended by the FBI director. Unless being able to predict the future is a qualification for the AG, it seems that you could find a better reason to be losing sleep.
