I know he didn't. He's a very decent person and respectful and when something is wrong he'll say so (and will have words with his people if they cross the line). I wasn't sure who did it. The news said they were going to tell us who is responsible but they never did (go figure). I just think its a horrible thing to happen to anyone and DH and I were talking tonight about when did all the nasty things like this start happening. I'm sure 100 or so years ago it wasn't bad like this. I just think it's a horrible world when someone is running for an office and people think its okay to do this. How low will they go?

No, your post didn't make it sound like you thought
he was responsible, I'm only imaging how it is going to somehow get back on him. It is a terrible thing to happen to anybody. Some people just need to step back and get a life. :)
Didn't the Washington Post back Obama?
My math isn't wrong. Gov. Blago+Mrs. Blago (real estate agent, or did you forget?)+Rezko=Obama. Can I make it any clearer?
I thought he gave a good speech. I hope all people listened

Actually, they didn't take everything, just what they thought they
they thought they were entitled to. After the outcry on what they removed, the Clintons returned several items.
A lot of this was based in truth, though, not urban legend as someone else states below your post.

I thought you didn't believe in polls?

You didn't say garbage, but I just thought
you were implying C-Span was garbage like some sites. Sorry if I misinterpreted it. I copied your part of the message in my message to you. To me, it sort of insinuated C-Span was garbage (my words, not yours).
I hope globetrotter takes a look at your post...
because a more potent example of elitism I have never met!
Hope this post answered your question.

I do hope that's not you, Shera, making fun of my post...sm
After all, I paid you a compliment down below, as I thought we may have something in common.
Please allow me my opinion. You were asking for opinions when you posted regarding this, didn't you? Thanks for allowing me mine.
Gary Muchler - hope the pictures post
Gary Muchler
And finally, they're a dwindling number and may soon be extinct, so let's take a quick look at the conservative counter-protestors who have been voicing their support for the war. You've already met memorial vandal Larry Northern, but now I'm proud to present ardent Bush supporter Gary Muchler. Here he is in Wilkes-Barre PA, trying to snatch a sign at a rally for Cindy Sheehan:
Just a thought, but instead of assaulting peaceful protestors perhaps Gary could sign up for the military. He loves the war, he's already got the camo pants (which the Army would be delighted to show him how to belt properly), and he'd get into shape right quick. C'mon Gary, sign up today!
Gary joins the elite ranks of the Pro-War Rogues' Gallery, which features previous honorees The Unknown Patriot:
...and of course, Morans Guy:
Eloquent post. Many valid reasons why I hope
Some of the sweetest and most devoted couples I know are same-sex. They pay taxes, are all highly educated and make my community a better place. They adore their children, their pets, their friends. To think they're denied the simple right of marriage, is heartbreaking.
Interestingly, I only have only one couple of friends who are married, who are same RACE. All the rest are black & white, white & Asian, Asian & Latino, Filippino and black, etc. I remember back when I was a teen, my parents actually didn't want me hanging out with a certain friend because her parents were a mixed-race couple. They thought it was 'scandalous'.
Well, that has all changed, and you better believe that every vote I cast will hopefully work towards bringing about equality in marriage for ALL couples.
There was no one cogent thought in that post. Not one. sm
blah blah blah HATE BUSH blah blah blah BURN IN HELL blah blah blah WARMONGER BUSH blah blah blah BUSH IS HITLER blah blah blah... That's all you ever say. You don't talk about Able Danger. You don't talk about Islamic threat. You don't talk about ANYTHING that is worthwhile. You just spew hatred. Reality Check was right. There is no use in anyone coming here who does not hate Bush. And I don't. I don't support him 100%. The fact is, a lot of conservatives have reservations about things like illegal immigrantion and the like. But I never spoke of any sitting President the way you do. And I certainly had an opportunity. I guess that's what separates us. Hatred and lack of hatred. In that case, I am glad to be in the latter group. Have a nice hate-filled day. 
What's with the name-calling? I thought her post was quite sm
nice and you have to say "chicken little", all snotty. Uncalled for.
And what facts to post....I hope you are really proud of your fellow posters...
right now.
Just when I thought you couldn't post anything worse sm
you come up with another even worse screed. It's bottomless. They have ugly ugly children, she's a Stepford wife, and he is worse than satan. And the terrorists are just really nice guys who need a hug, right? Unbelieveable!
so, just like I thought, the original post was pointless!

Obama = HOPE
Well............maybe they will then be able to afford a car so they can drive themselves out of the path of a hurricane.....and get a better education so they can get a better job and the mentally ill that make up the biggest portion of our homeless (because Reagan closed all the mental institutions on the premise it was against their civil rights to keep them hospitalized) may not have to live in cardboard boxes anymore.
gee, I thought conservatives were supposed to post on their own board.....proves all you want sm
to do is fight with someone. What possible reason could you have for being over here? Obviously you are not creating dialogue or trading ideas....the only reason is to start something and then here come the insults. Guidelines posted when they started these boards were to post on your own board.
I do notice that conservatives post more on that board, but instead of discussing opinions and ideas and their reasons for them, all they do is bash the left.
Washington Post: Commission admits they thought they were being deceived.sm
After C Span aired the 911 Scholars Symposium in LA for 3 days, the questions and information has started to flow. Looks like some are starting to do some CYA. There are articles in the NYT, Vanity Fair, and even the Washington Post. For a change, they are not calling skeptics names. It is only a baby step, but this has made my day.

I hope you voting for Obama, did you?..nm
nm
Do I need some kind of motive to post what I thought was a good read..and your point is..
xx
McCain is scary. Obama is the US's best hope for
Obama = Hope. McCain = Dope.
nm
I hope you hold him to it if he gets elected. If Obama...sm
get elected, and I hope he does, I will hold his feet to the fire and make sure he lives up to his promises.
I just hope Obama doesn't make use of them...
for political dissidents. You can't tell me that Congress, including Mr. Obama, do not know they exist. Come on now.
I think Obama will ask his voters to vote for who he wants in; I hope not though! nm
Here's a thought Obama.....
How 'bout we kick their butts out of this country, since after all, they are here ILLEGALLY, and then they can go through the same legal means everyone else has to go through.....
We don't need 'reform'....we need the laws that are already in place to be EXECUTED!! There's a thought!!
Regardless who is leading the band.....they are criminals here illegally! And lets not parade their children about on TV trying to elicit pity from everyone....look at all the homeless children left behind... pleeeeeze!!!
The parents were here illegally. They can take their children back with them.... no one is stopping them!
I guess I didn't take B's post that way. SM
I use God as a comparison when I am really trying to make a point. I think that is what was going on, but only B can answer that. At any rate, I agree with B.
Perhaps you didn't READ my post
I said -- keep it the hell out of politics.
You're welcome to claim whomever you'd like as your Saviour in the privacy of your own home and the community of your own church.
Brunson didn't post that. someone else did.

You didn't read my post
I was referring to people I talk to, as I stated. I don't generally talk to Churchill or Chomsky. In fact, I don't even pay much attention to them, nor should you. Just as I don't pay much if any attention to crazy right-wingers. Just common sense.
FYI--I didn't post the comment above this.sm
I think this was a mistake. Is this you Observer?
P.S. If there is another person posting with the Democrat moniker let me know and I will change mines.
I didn't post this.....someone used my initials...sm
x nice try.
Why didn' you post a message?
I'm not sure why you wrote Henry Kissinger but then didn't write anything. If Obama can come up with when Henry Kissinger said that to him I will take back my original post. All I'm saying is Kissinger was interviewed and he said he never said it. You should take him at his word. If Obama says something I believe him. Maybe Obama really believed Kissinger said this.
Obama says he cares about the people. He cares that people needs jobs, decent healthcare, and not to lose their homes. He said he is going to work towards getting this fixed. I believe him.

You didn't address your post
to Christians exclusively. If that was what you wanted, maybe you should take it over to the faith board, will everyone will gush and agree with you.
It didn't post for some reason; will try again

Does anyone else have this happen as well? It says it posted successfully, & doesn't show up. Just curious.
Thanks!
Why didn't you post this yesterday?
Or the day before? Didn't feel the love until Obama got elected?
Actually, you didn't read the post then
Didn't say she was a liar. There is a difference with calling someone a liar and saying you don't believe them.
She over did it with the drama. Sure maybe she donated to charities on her own, but all the drama about contributing to the greater care, organizing for charity, painted and nailing carpeting in "poverty stricken homes" as her "gift to her children" oh yes, all while she didn't have a pot to you know what in, all while making only 5.30 an hour. And on top of all that she moved in with her parents to take care of her dying father while herself working full-time as a supervisor several states away (wow what a commute each day that must have been). On and on an on an on. Could it have happened? Sure anything could happen. Do I believe it personally? Not in my lifetime. But that's not saying it didn't happen. Just sounds like she should be awarded the model citizen of the century award.
BTW - there is a clear difference between saying you don't believe someone and them attacking you personally.
So I'd boo-hoo on yourself.
Guess you didn't see the post I did below
showing that Bush tried to regulate the industry as far back as 2001, but the dems would have none of it....those most opposed were all on the "take"; i.e., getting thousands of dollars in contributions from FM/FM.....or don't you believe it even when it comes from their own mouths?
Open your eyes and listen, or do you need a hearing test?
you really didn't need to post describing yourself
we had enough of you yesterday. Sometimes it's best to leave things alone and not comment at all.
Sorry, the link didn't post.....
In a nutshell, Hawaii has passed "Islam Day" law....
Where is their "Christianity Day"?
Where's the loud mouth ACLU on this?
This country is heading to he!! in a handbasket!
All I can hope is the Obama campaign picks up this mantra...
because if they do, they are toast and we won't have to do a thing. Do you honestly think there are no parents of pregnant teenagers out there who VOTE? Just keep on spreading this seething judgmental condemnation. Just keep on. It should be copied and pasted onto blogs...what Obama supporters will sink to. What a good idea.
I think I will start now.
Well, great, hope you love Obama's tax plan then. It

Don't agree. I hope Obama gets to go back to the senate...
and see her there as VP... :)
Thought of that, but Obama is running for the top
nm
I thought you said Obama was addressing his
just trying to clarify it for you. You seem to be easily led..... oops, misled.
You obviously didn't really read her post...what's happened
You used to be a pretty straightforward poster even though we were often at odds. Now you seem nasty.
I didn't really have an intention. That post just caught my eye. nm
You didn't respond to Yepper's post.
I don't feel the need to make the choice. It's a child, not a choice. n/t
Ooops, I just reposted this. I didn't see your post. sm
