Well, I don't need Obama's help as if he is so smart

Yeah, and Obama is so darn smart, yet does not

There is a smart man. Obama would love people to

Geez.....Obama has a CAMPAIGN ad....
about issuing a windfall profits tax on oil companies (private profits, earned) and redistributing that to people as a freebie who did nothing to earn it. I didn't make that up. His campaign ad says it very clearly, in his own voice, and then it says "I am Barack Obama and I approved this message." An yes, they run the ad on Fox too, as well as most of the networks.
I have read his tax plan. What I didn't read is how he intends to pay for it. I would be asking the same questions if Hillary was running and saying the same things. But she isn't. He is.
Geez. Suppose Barack Obama gets that 3:00 call...
and can't find Joe Biden?
Lord love a duck.
I don't believe she is capable of
I must say her incessant vitriol has completely discredited any validity that her argument may have held.
See? You ARE still capable of "getting it"!
n/m
Wouldn't you rather have a capable person
Typical Publican.
Sticks and stones......and you are capable...
only of petty, small insults and attacking in packs. Certainly something to be proud of. You should add it to your resume.
The left is not capable of thinking that way. Instead,
nm
Are you at all capable of original thought?
used on the forum today at least a dozen times. It has just about as much meaning in this post as it did early this morning....zero. Why don't you confine yourself to speaking on behalf of your own flock, 'cause you sure hs hades don't know what you are talking about when you try to speak for the other 69,456,897 fellow citizens who voted Obama into office.
I dont consider that witch to be capable of
We already established she is capable. It is a bonus that she is a fine person.
Typical Dem.
How predictable that I read an entire thread and am capable of forming an independent conclusion?
that's quite predictable. You're obviously not one of those people.
You have to check and double check every single thing they say. They're not capable of telling t
truth about anything. It's getting very boring and tedious to read their crap. Why won't they stay on their own board like they tell us to do?
Oh yes, I believe Saddam is capable of any atrocity, chemical warfare, biological warfare, etc......
But it has been proven that the American people were misled and lied to, the workers who searched diligently for WMDs found none at all at the time we charged into Iraq and started this multi-trillion dollar nightmare. Are we going to rush into every nation on earth if we suspectthey have weapons we do not like? At that time, the WMD question in Iraq was a reuse to charge in and once again try secure the oil there for George's friends with ton's of interests in Middle East oil. I am not the one kidding myself, if you want to re-write history to try and defend George Bush, you will have one heck of a problem.
At least I am smart enough to know
tanks, but no thanks, on that 4 more years.
Then you were one of the smart ones.
Too bad everybody else had dreams of home ownership. Again, I say, it was the lenders who screwed everybody, promising them the moon, when they knew darn well they couldn't afford it. It's a shame some people don't use common sense.
B-U-tiful....and smart, too!

She's smart enough what socialism is all

Sam, you are so smart! -and I mean that, unlike

Or not smart enough to have a legitimate

book smart isn't everything
I've known a lot of educated people who don't know a thing about real life. Need some life experience and common sense to go anywhere.
I'm smart enough to know who is leading
smart enough to read an electoral map, smart enough to recognize the #1 campaign issue, smart enough to know that only losers will ignore the ecoomic meltdowm, and smart enough to give O my vote.
Smart girl.

when you claim you are so smart
it gives quite the opposite impression. When you brought up your intelligence, claiming to have an abundance, you opened it up for discussion, and my fellow MT, i take issue with you lording it over me and others.
Oh come on. Dems are smart enough to see through...
those things, AREN'T they? lol.
My parents were smart like that too.
My dad worked for GM for 30+ years and retired in his 60s only because he wasn't capable of working anymore. They paid off their house. They had one credit card that they paid off every month if they used it. Dad had cash in the bank, stashed in other places, etc. Now my dad has been gone for almost 2 years now and my mom is living in her paid off house by herself. All that hard work that my father did to make sure that she would be taken care of after he was gone and now GM is doing horrible. Not sure what will happen to my mother's healthcare through GM or the pension my father worked so hard for. It is truly a shame if his blood, sweat, and tears of 30+ years didn't amount to anything.
A lot of younger people nowadays don't know what it is to work for what you have. Everyone wants things given to them now and that is a huge reason why I have a problem with welfare. It doesn't help the people who really need a hand up. All of these government assistant programs will do nothing but make people more lazy and dependent on others to give to them. I'd rather work for what I have and tell the government to leave me the heck alone, but that is just me.
The average American has 10K in credit card debt and think that is just sad. My DH and I have one credit card and we pay it off every month. The only thing we owe on is our house and it sucks that I'm terrified about losing it because the economy is so bad when my DH and I have been nothing but responsible with our money. We just keep plugging along and hoping that DH's job isn't one of the ones on the chopping block. If we keeps his job, we will be okay. However, if he doesn't, especially with a new baby on the way, we are in deep sh!t!
Smart? (just kidding) nm

just being smart alecky here, but
maybe trying to shed any bad publicity they have earned, or maybe just to get global like their favorite son.
Project Vote Smart sm
Here is just one site and it is pretty detailed. Hope it helps. I also recommend learning about the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) to learn about the role they play in our political system and the media. They do have an impact on what candidates are selected and get a lot of press coverage, while others are hidden and smeared, Dennis included. All the frontrunners are members. I am doing volunteer work with one of the campaigns, and getting quite an education on the dirt in politics. Here is the link to Project Vote Smart:

I agree that Hillary is smart...
I don't think anyone could dispute that. Not so sure I would call her perky...lol. Katie Couric is perky and you talk about polar opposites...lol.
Knowledgeable? Yep. But from someone who lived for years in the home turf...and all the stuff that went on when Bill was governor and carried on to Washington...just can't trust her. And talk about a dupe...that is what Bill is for her. With all his warts, I do feel sorry for him...lol. I would like to trust her, especially if she wins the election...would be nice to be able to feel some degree of comfort. But I just can't. What I see most lacking in her is that I cannot see much humanness, for lack of a better word. She is like a machine. And, frankly, I have no clue what this woman really feels and thinks at her core. Even before Monica there was no affection between the two of them. For all George's faults, it is obvious Laura loves him and that shows. His kids love him, and that shows. When you see Bill and Chelsea...they look like business acquaintances. It is even cooler with Chelsea and Hillary. I would like to see some humanness. Don't know really how else to describe it.
And the reason is...how a person really feels in their core is what they act on, no matter what they have said to get elected. Definitely no warm and fuzzy about Hillary. And anyone with the kind of power that the Presidency wields should definitely have compassion and sensitivity about them.
I would like to like her. I would like to trust her. But I don't....
Sam is not smart...she is just annoying and persistent.
She is a legend in her own mind!
Sorry, Sam...this fish is too smart to take your bait!
I will just keep swimming in the opposite direction and let you look for other fish to catch!
McBush not looking 2 smart for choosing her...
First of all Palin is *not* stupid, she's just not ready - and might never be ready.
She should be commended for stepping up when the GOP machine came calling. McBush picked her because he was pressured to, and probably because the other experienced GOP contenders said, 'uh, think I'll pass.'
And the media IS taking some good swipes at her - after all she baited them to do so a bit in her speech. Note to Palin: You weren't just trying to win over the GOP delegates in your first speech to the world, you were trying to win us *all* over. You should have skipped the cutesy/snarky...
Just NOT smart enough to NOT follow the sheeps

Only a moron would say Palin is smart because sm
you don't know any better and do not possess the mental skills to discern how inept Palin is.
Seemingly a smart chicken...:) (sm)
No 401 K here. I'm even more chicken. What money I have saved I've put in guaranteed CDs. It hasn't made much, but at least it's still there. Yeah, I'm feeling lucky.
Ann can be harsh, but she is so smart and tells

Intelligent, smart, effective. Good ad.

New Yorkers are very smart people for the most part

O'Reilly is obnoxious and everyone smart hates him nm
liz is polish what do you expect
Really, I am smart and one has to choose wisely on what to use one's braincells.....
I think I stop for now with my postings. I do not want to get into flaming and I feel that it might come just to that, if you start questioning my intelligence if I do not read pagelong, useless links put on this board.
Yep. She has smart and has guts. Leftists hate her.

Knew such smart people here could just get by with (sp?) and guess what?
it worked.
The sticks and stones were the smart-A (aleck, not a$$)....
remarks at the end of the post...ending in...chief. No need for that. And it does not matter how many times these folks (same folks who would DIE before claiming Bush as THEIR President...LOL) tell me Barry from Chicago is MY President...in my mind and heart he is not, and they are preaching to the choir. But if that makes their day....yippee. Maybe they can meet MSNBC Chris and they can sing Obama's praises and get those tingles up their legs...lol.
Geez....
right back at you, in spades.
Again, you never answered my question about is war ever justified? For any reason?
Children all over the world have no voice or very little voice. Fine. Should we just sit back and allow that to continue? I don't think so.
I never said a woman who had an abortion has no morals. I said I...me myself...I...believe abortion is morally wrong. If I...myself...made the choice to have an abortion that would be a morally wrong choice. Just like if I shot my neighbor. Morally wrong choice. If you shot your neighbor...morally wrong choice. When you lie...which we have all done...morally wrong choice. Does that mean we have no morals...no. Means we made a morally wrong choice. You are a very black and white person for a liberal. Generally liberals live in a world of gray.
It is no more a one-issue race for me than it is for you. YOU are one of the people you talk about. YOU would NEVER vote for a pro-life candidate. You need to take a long look in the mirror piglet.
I still wonder why you are so violently opposed to someone speaking for the child. Why on EARTH do you have such an issue with that?
Maybe it is NOT my business whether a woman has an abortion or not. What I think IS my business is that a child is killed in the process. And I feel that should be SOMEBODY's business. So sorry if that aggravates you. But will not stop me.
And how, in the name of all that is holy or NOT holy, can you say that abortion in any way, shape or form equals HUMANITY?
Geeezzzzz.
