In Reply to: Of course it isn't over - gourdpainter
the links I provided you would have understood why I said it is not over:
Curt Wrotnowksi's case, Wrotnowksi v. Connecticut Secretary of State, has been denied by the U. S. Supreme Court.
Docket #08A469 -- The application for stay and/or injunction addressed to Justice Scalia and referred to the Court is denied.
Update: Judicial review is allowed only after the Electoral College vote and Congressional Certification.
The Justices denied the "stay' but have retained the "certori." It isn’t dead. They’re waiting for the Electoral College to actually elect him. Obama is not President Elect until after the Electoral College "elects" him. Then Congress must approve the Election. Only one senator AND only one representative are needed to stop Obama’s election approval.
Mechanisms exist under the Twelfth Amendment and 3 U.S.C. 15 for any challenge to any candidate to be ventilated when electoral votes are counted, and the Twentieth Amendment provides guidance regarding how to proceed if a president elect shall have failed to qualify.
Issues regarding qualifications or lack thereof can be laid before the voting public before the election and, once the election is over, can be raised as objections as the electoral votes are counted in Congress.
Therefore, this order holds that the challenge presented by plaintiff is committed under the Constitution to the electors and the legislative branch, at least in the first instance. Judicial review, if any, should occur only after the electoral and Congressional processes have run their course.
The federal government does not take official notice of the presidential election until the current Vice President opens the ballots on January 8th; the court is simply acting on this legal fact.

I don't imagine you bothered to read...
entire thread...but why would you? lol.
More information there if you bothered to look....
and much more recent than the Keating 5...4 of whom were democrats.
Me either -and anyone who bothered to research
nm
You seem more bothered about it at this point..
xx
have you bothered to go to your local PD?

If you are bothered by the racism that this election
then what about mysogyny and sexism?
There are some Obama supporters out there sporting some Palin-bashing shirts.
If you dont' like Obama, you are probably a racist, right?
Oh, but there is no hate thrown at Sarah Palin? Take a look at the link below and see for yourself.
Now, I ask you, are all of you Sarah-haters mysogynists and sexist?
Generalizations will get you nowhere. Yes, I am sure people won't vote for Obama because he is black, and many blacks will vote for him JUST because he is black, REGARDLESS of his policies. I think the huge majority of people that aren't voting for him are not in agreement with his policies or don't like his character. THAT is NOT being racist. THAT is seeing through the rhetoric and coolness for what he truly stands for and not taking his bait. No thanks. I'm voting McCain.
See the link. (Warning, adults only)
4 Fords & 2 GMs. Never even bothered with Chrysler!
in the case of the Fords, when I could even FIND parts. Planned obsolescence, you know. Tried to get a replacement seat belt for a broken one in my 4-yr-old Ford. 'No longer have any', they told me. So what am I supposed to do then? Junk the car? Illegal to drive without the belt, can't buy a new one, and still paying off the loan. Maybe just tie a good strong rope around myself to hold me in the seat?
Now I've got a sturdy, reliable Toyota. 5 years old when I bought it, and now it's 13 years old. Only thing I've ever replaced is a water pump. That's IT.
Unlike my Fords, when you drive it down the street, you can actually steer it in a straight line without drifting. And unlike my GM, things don't fall off of it every time you slam the door shut or turn on the engine.
It probably bothered her because she is a closet Nat'l Enquirer reader?

Meant to add "sm"
xoxoxoxo
should be "sm" for above post....
x
Why do you sign yourself "sm"??? If you want to ....sm
You really should have the guts to sign a moniker and not just shoot out comments with "sm" or "nm."
Sorry, I should have signed this not "sm" but
x
I was speaking to you, "sm" not oldtimer. (nm)
meant "sm" not "nm"....

Alleged post of "M"/"SM"
Vie:
As it has been stated SEVERAL times before, you are getting your people mixed up here, and to accuse someone of saying something they DID not say is rude, chicken$*** and just plain WRONG.. AS Kaydie stated, people on this board have differning opinions regarding various topics that are discussed; and if there is something that you find offensive - it us YOUR CHOICE to read it or NOT. There are people that I do not totally agree with here at times but I have enough RESPECT for them and myself not to blatantly, hatefully insult someone if I do not agree-no need to become personal because someone voices an opinion that does not coincide with yours. Speaking of insults: The post that YOU typed regarding what "M/SM" allegedly posted re abortion - your comeback was pretty nasty, i.e., "you are probably a woman who cannot conceive and are just jealous", etc. As it is said in the BIble - "He who is wihtout sin cast the first stone" and as far as I am concerned YOU do not have the right to bend your back to pick up a rock and throw it at me or anyone else here. Period.
look who's talking....our very own daily "sm".....
talking about you liberal "sm" who....
.....those "sm" stereotypes do it every day, and there is at least one in particular, maybe you, maybe not, maybe the other liberal "sm" poster...you know who you are.....and the posting style is unmistakable, as well as the demeaning manner towards conservative posters. It's an almost daily occurrence, look in the archives if you doubt it.
Bush's "moral calculus."sm
http://onlinejournal.com/artman/publish/article_1033.shtml
Vie...."sm" means "see message" sm
Just like in this post, I put 'sm' IN MY SUBJECT LINE to indicate that there is a message in here. If there has been no message, I would have put "nm." Obviously you either don't understand the workings of a message board or you are just having a really bad day. Please get some rest.
Yep, you're right....it was probably that pesky "sm" poster typed in wrong....my bad.
.
I see the liberal left on this board...save one "sm" could care less for your post....sm
Dems everywhere want total control, and obviously could care less what happens once that is obtained.
That's right. He was paid but he
drove a used car and made about 10K a year. Apparently, he didn't do it for the money, so what's your point?
And those that do less, get paid less....
xx
And you really think HE paid for them?
Hate to break it to you hun, but in the end, we still paid for them. He works in the GOVERNMENT. Meaning he is paid with TAX dollars. OUR tax dollars.
They are running a campaign. Obviously, image is everything. Otherwise you all wouldn't be hating on the fact that John is an old man or that Sarah is a beauty pageant winner.
I'm so glad this is an important issue. If you want something donated to charity, contact O and tell him to sell his jet and give the money to hungry children.
Sheesh.
You PAID them? Gee, let's put you in DC
nm
No stress here. If anyone is getting paid here...
it would seem to be the dem attack machine. thanks for your concern tho.
She paid for the tanning bed herself...
not the taxpayers. Maybe we should go in all the gov mansions in the lower 48 and see who installed what. Sheesh! lol.
As to the rape kit thing...you act as if Wasilla, Alaska is the only city who did that. It is common practice in the lower 48 as well. That does not make it right, but it is not isolated to Sarah Palin. And it you look closer, the Wasilla Police Department AND the State police (not under her jurisdiction) were actually paying for the testing, and then passing the cost on to the patient, which prompted the STATE, because of the state troopers billing as well, to ban the practice. So if you are going to take Wasilla to task for it, add several towns in the lower 48 to the list.
Yes, and the devil will be paid. n/m
It's not about what she wears. It's about who paid
of the populist appeals to the no frills, no elites allowed "working folks" who they are trying to dupe into believing they give a rat's butt about. If they are so cavalier with their campaign contributions, no telling what they would be willing to do if they ever got their hands on taxpayer money.
I am not b*tching about how little MTs are paid....
and we the people DO pay for union contracts with higher prices on goods. Union dues DO NOT pay for their benefits. Employers DO, who pass that on to consumers. I know you know that.
You don't have to tell me about Sam. I grew up in Sam country. I know a few blue haired ladies who started in the first store built in my little town who are rich today because of the profit sharing.
Yes, I shop at Wal-Mart. As do many millions of Americans. And not all their products are cheap knock-offs.
Oh I see...doesn't matter who someone associates with or what he does, or what a union does illegal or not, as long as it benefits the union members. I can see why Obama is not a concern to you.
Wonder how much Google is getting paid
Now that Google is tracking your search of symptoms put in by those who think they might have flu, they will send that info to the government and let them know where flu outbreaks may be? Now, of course, there will be those that think that is wonderful but those of us who do understand our privacy should be a freedom in this country, we know this is an out and out invasion of our privacy. Google has no privacy safeguards in place, so if Google is giving the government information on things we google, as they already have, you still think your government is wonderful and looking out for you? Google should be ashamed.......they are selling us out. There will be more and more companies invading our privacy as the government invades more of our private lives and these companies do their bidding.......
It probably will not be paid back.
Besides, we already owe China and now more? We still need to pay back the first debt. Looks like United States will be sold soon.
I think that if you truly paid attention
to the complaints on this board, you would realize that what we are complaining about is not the fact that our money is going to government programs to help people who need it. Most of us are upset because these government programs are being abused and misused by dishonest people who would much rather not work and be lazy just to receive government assistance. I have no problem helping people who need it. I think Clinton did a good thing by reforming welfare and I think it is a shame that Obama is undoing that. Welfare is supposed to be a hand up.....not a hand out.
Not wanting to help people in need is not the issue here and I wish that you guys could understand that. We aren't being heartless here. We are just sick and tired of people mooching off of the government when they could work and make a living for themselves.
If the dishonest people who are abusing the system could be taken out of the welfare equation, just think of the extra money we would have to really help those in need. Think about it.
Maybe if they ALL paid their taxes....
instead of hiding money in their freezers, offshore accounts and various tax shelters.......THEY ARE ALL GUILTY IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.
It is probably not an MT and a paid blogger. sm
They are on all the political boards. The first hint was CV. You brought up some topics that are a no-no. I know it is hard, but try to ignore and not respond to posts attacking you. People need to question. I hope people do their research and there is some discussion on these topics. It is crucial that everyone understand the monetary system.
He was paid, the firm wasn't. SM
Either way, he could have said no and he didn't. Mind you, I have a limitation on what I think gay rights should extend to, but I won't go into that here because I will get slaughtered.
He paid with his own earnings? Oh how awful.
And what was your point? Wouldn't you tend to trust a candidate more who paid for his campaign with his own money, rather than taking bribes from special interests that he has to pay back later by stealing more freedom and cash from you?
And if your point was that his take on the case was so high that he could finance a whole campaign with it, again, so? - A jury of your peers made that award and likely you would have too had you been on the jury and had a chance to hear the facts. If he had been representing you in a case in which your child was disemboweled by a defective piece of equipment which the manufacturers knew full well tended to disembowel children but they sold it to you anyway, would you think the jury awarded too much or the lawyer might get paid too much?
Or instead of actually thinking about the need to have lawyers represent people who have been egregiously harmed by incompetent and negligent companies, and the need to have juries hear the facts and make appropriate awards when justified, is it just easier to nod at the bullcrap propaganda which says you don't NEED to be protected because look how much money the lawyer makes?
When it's your turn you're going to want that lawyer and you're going to want that jury to hear your story. So what is the problem you have with holding villains accountable and seeing other people get the settlements they deserve?
Yeah, I forgot, he never paid
*No child left behind* either....remember that...Yeah, silly me, he would never do that. My sincere apologies....javascript:editor_insertHTML('text',' ');
javascript:editor_insertHTML('text','');
again...as usual...paid no attention...
The taking one more shot post appeared LONG before your cease fire....you just had not seen it yet. But it would not have mattered. I didn't read this latest diatribe...too tired and really don't give a darn. And I will give you a clue dear, one of those 4-letter words...I did not say the GOP then does not resemble the GOP now....in fact I agree whole-heartedly. The GOP has turned into Democrat lite. Which is why I don't belong to the grand old party anymore. Only register as Repub in primary years because if I didn't, I couldn't vote, and I want to have a say, no matter how small. You should really ask questions before you jump off the deep end...but you don't care, because you are always right, aren't you? Speaking from that high horse of moral authority. You must have the word "bigot" in your shortcuts, you sure invoke it enough. LOL. Really too bad that just you typing it here doesn't make it true....or maybe it is, the gospel according to Globetrotter....LOL geezzz.
If we were being paid bloated wages, maybe, but
if they want to go any lower than they already have gone (I had a truly insulting offer a few weeks back of 0.0625 cpl with 30 years experience), I say let India have it. MTSOs need to be going in the opposite direction and MTs might want to look into unionization themselves. Peronally, I think we are also worth $28/hr and do not consider that to be an exorbitant for MTs or for auto workers, given the COL. JMHO.
I paid attention and I ain't even republican
Now that your hope for racist remarks have no doubt been proven unfounded, you gotta start grasping at anything you can find, because those "racial" remarks were really all the democrats had going for them. Those mean 'ole republicans.
Are you really so racist that you don't think a black man may actually like McCain instead of Obama? Are you that deluded in your thoughts?
I have several black neighbors and they have made it quite clear they will never vote for Obama. They work their butts off and don't believe anyone has the right to their money!
I don't care where they came from, as long as he paid for them - nm

If she paid a lot of money for the B-52's hair
.
Palin's stylist paid twice as much as
http://www.kvoa.com/Global/story.asp?S=9234675&nav=HMO6HMaY
they went out to people who paid taxes, too.

on-call is paid time
you do realize they would be paid to be on call. So they could be on call at home or on call at the facility. they would be paid either way. Are you familiar with on-call pay?
union people will still get paid for doing nothing.
Apparently you have paid NO attention.
This talk about NWO has been out there since Bush 41, almost two decades. Where have you been? But if it makes you feel better to blame Obama, have at it.
This election was bought and paid for by
P.S. We paid off our mortage last year
and DH's truck is free and clear also. It took us 15 years to pay the mortage and 4 years for the truck. If we want something, it will be in cash. We bought and paid for our cars and pickup truck with cash. We haven't had car payments since I was stupid enough to buy a brand new car back in 1985. If we can't afford a car with cash, we would wait. We're waiting now. I would love to have a newer car and DH really should have a newer truck because it's part of his business, but that's not in the cards. Maybe next year (saying this for 3 years now).
Maybe if the O appointees paid their taxes.....sm.
