Wouldn't say ignorance is bliss. Ignorance
is the reason why we had Bush for 8 years, and ignorance is why people will vote PalinMc.
Disagree. Ignorance is ignorance. n/m

Ignorance......
Well, you certainly should not feel ignorant. The entire problem is lack of knowledge about what has really caused this. We do want to blame the corrupt business practices, but we should at least understand where it all comes from.....
I have posted a complete explanation of the Federal Reserve below and I hope you take the time to watch it. It is 42 minutes long but this is why so many feel they don't understand the problem. This is in a nutshell the root of the problem and why we need to get away from paper money.
I'll post the video site again. This should be taught in all classrooms in high school and again in college and they all should be made watch this to better understand.... taking the time to watch means better understanding and should mean outrage that we have gotten to this point and allowed our government to screw us over.......for decades and decades

Ignorance
Look what has happened to this country in the last 8 years. If any of you can say honestly that you are better off, let's hear it. Otherwise, pin or no pin, hand across heart or not, we need a change. Not saying that either party would work miracles for this country is in shambles and it will take decades to have it back as it was before the W and his rich friends took everything away.

My disdain for you and your ignorance
How DO you live with yourself?
Ignorance is bliss....
....as the saying goes, however, in the Obama posting above it's more like ignorance equals hatred and intolerance. I personally think this country really really needs someone like Obama desperately. We are, after all, a melting pot of races, cultures and religions, not a country run solely by rich white men with laws created to help the rich white men get even richer.
It's ignorance like that -----that can really screw up
I don't care if there what or who was in there as long as they are qualified, and qualified she is NOT
Like I said.......... DESPERATION and ignorance

Ignorance on a rampage.

my ignorance is showing!
Can you tell me what is ACORN? And what are the voter fraud issues with it? Sorry, but I just don't know this stuff and trying to get informed. I found some conflicting info while trying to do some research and alot of stuff I didn't understand so can someone break it down to simple terms for me? Thanks.
WOW - I guess ignorance IS
not only bliss, but
BLIND,
DEAF,
and incredibly DUMB.
'Senator Obama was very cordial' while McCain had an 'evil grin.' Geeze, lady, maybe open BOTH eyes next time.
Your idea that Obama is for the middle class because he's promising his BS ྛ% of Americans will get a tax break' is a delusion built on a lie.
Why don't you take a minute to look it up? Or are you too busy polishing your Obama presidential seal commemorative plates?
Under Obama's plan, about 43% of American taxpayers would get a ONE-TIME-ONLY tax REBATE of $500. (Less than the $900 Bush sent out this year.) And, get this, for the 42% of Americans who pay NO TAX AT ALL, Obama's going to give them a $500 check just for the heck of it. So you, sweetie, typing away at your desk, will be forking over part of your income tax to give a little gift to peolpe who sit on the fannies watching baby daddy dramas on the Maurie show and rolling their doobies on Welfare.
I'd much rather have McCain's $5000 credit for buying my own health insurance, plus his higher child tax credit.
It's a lie every time he calls this REBATE check a tax decrease. It's a lie counting the 42% of Americans who don't pay tax ANYWAY into the percentage of people who will pay less tax. You don't have to be a rocket scienctist to know that you can't pay less tax than ZERO.
Maybe you want to fall for it. But don't pretend that you don't know your candidate is full of hot air.
Ignorance is voting for someone you think? will help

Are you kidding? Another example of ignorance. nm

Ignorance and bigotry are something to be

Is ignorance your only area
rasberries
You are so wrong ...another example of ignorance
First of all, not one of Obama supporters has threatened to riot for not voting for him. Secondly, Democrats have way too much class to act like mindless, bloodthirsty fools -- I believe you missed all the incidences of McCain supporters being worked up into the hate-mongering mobs that became so common at their rallies. I personally have been saying for weeks that I was afraid of the backlash from the crazy fanatics blindly following McCain, and that I fully expected there to be some riots on that side of the fence. Lastly, I do not personally know one Democrat (and I know a lot) who have defected to the other side, whereas, there have been many, many longtime, famous, staunch pubs who want to distance themselves from the cartoon characters that McCain and Palin have become. I mean, you guys are the ones that just love, love, love your guns!! You guys want to talk about ACORN, so stupid. Have you not heard about McCain's bullies at the voting centers trying to intimidate people into not voting for Obama? And let's not forget those Robo calls. If it weren't so despicable, I could almost feel sorry for him . . . NOT!!
Sometimes I'm appalled at the ignorance and

Sure seems to be a lot of ignorance around here today.

Speaking of ignorance....(sm)
I just love it when people try to wallow around in righteous, indignant self pity. If you're so concerned about the plight of the Jewish people, why don't you go and help out your grandmother?
Ask yourself this question. Since Great Britian and the UN thought so highly of Jews as to actually declare them a separate nation, why didn't they create that nation in Europe? My guess is that there were 2 reasons. Number one would have to be the *not in my backyard phenomenon.* The other was simply as a controlling interest in the region. The reality is that Britian didn't give a rat's butt about the Jews. They just picked the most susceptible minds (at the time) to carry out their plans. They sold the idea of backing Isreal through religion and still do, just like the US does. One big clue to this is exactly how much we actually back Israel. We have brought them up to the level of nukes while they are still just fighting against homemade bombs. We (the US) look the other way when Israel kills hundreds of Palestinians, but will run a prime time special if 2 (not 200, just 2) Israelis are killed. Yeah, that's a fair fight. We back other leaders in the middle east, but only to a point (Saddam for example). Once they get to a point where they may actually become a threat to Israel (a holding interest for the west) we always manage to call them a threat for some other reason and level the playing field.
I really wish people would look at the big picture on this one. From a political standpoint, Israel is nothing more than a bishop in a chess game.
Right, ignorance is bliss for some.

Smothered by ignorance......
by ill-informed punkinheads who pretend to know something about our political situation. Just spewing the same worn out talking points that don't amount to squat.
Don't confuse Ignorance

Ignorance abounds.......
I didn't vote for GW. I'm not in to all that dem/rep stuff like you obviously are. I am sick to death of paying for lazy people, while my own husband who works his butt off can't get the medication he needs because it is too expensive but those same lazy moochers can go get medical care at my expense, all paid for by Medicaid. Just because you don't like the facts, does not mean they aren't there.
It doesn't take a mental giant to see what's right in front of your face, just someone who grew up seeing it and is tired of looking at it.
Yes, your ignorance is amazing....
It is true - food stamps get spent and stimulate the economy more than anything else. When we have millions without jobs right now - don't you think they deserve to eat? Probably not. You probably still live with mommy and daddy.
Ignorance abounds
Seems like you're leading the pack!! Do you ever work or just complain on this board all day? 
The ignorance that still abounds in the US
Times change, but organized religion remains mired in the Dark Ages. And I suppose YOUR laws still claim that the world is flat. Well, just don't get too close to the edge, you might just fall off.
There is ignorance on both sides here.
As a Christian, I would appreciate it if people would leave this type of subject out of our children's education. It is not unreasonable to ask since we have given up God and prayer in the schools to accommodate those who do not believe.
There are some people who will ridicule the act as well as the person as you can clearly see when we get on the subject of homosexuality. But you cannot group all of us into this category. I do not agree with that lifestyle but having no reason to treat them poorly. That is what I want to teach my children. We may not agree but we cannot be mean to them.
However, I cannot stand by and allow the teaching that homosexuality is okay. It is too controversial of a topic for that to be taught in schools.....just like religion. I can teach my children acceptance of people without teaching acceptance of a lifestyle we don't agree with and I would appreciate it if schools wouldn't undermine my authority on that subject.
You don't see me going around forcing religion on children who I know has parents who don't believe in God and don't want their kids hearing about God.

WHAT was I thinking!!!!
I forgot only your opinion counts. Please forgive me.
Whatever was I thinking? NT
m
W's thinking (or not)
W. finds time to attend the services for the VT students (as he ought), yet fails to attend a single funeral of any one of the soldiers he has sent into war; no excuse in my book. I am currently listening to the service on TV and the Governor of VA is saying how W knows **first as a governor and now as president the importance of comfort and consolation necessary in these sad times.** (paraphrased a bit) Soldiers and their families don't need comfort or consolation...that is just wrong. People who have voluntarily put their lives in danger at the behest of their president and in duty to their country are not afforded the respect of the man's (who sent them there presence??) This is not to minimize in any way the tragedy at VT. I realize that one cannot attend 3300 funerals but maybe at least 1 in each state or something. These soldiers deserved better.
Gee, with this way of thinking, I should
be VP, a heartbeat from the presidency. I am NOT Washingtonian. I am a normal person. My husband is a blue collar worker. I have three children and six grandchildren. Hmmmm.... Why wasn't I called!? Since 1984, I have felt that the American people are so stupid, and as it turns out, I am right.
Like he said...he kept thinking they would do something...
and they aren't. ANd you would think that the man who is going to be president would want to BE THERE and hear things FIRST HAND on the biggest crisis of the country. Good grief, admit it, if Obama had done it first you would be singing his praises and saying all the things we are saying about McCain. Just admit it...lol Geez.
What are they thinking???!!!
I am a republican, and plan to vote for McCain. Why in the world did they allow Sarah Palin to go on that piece of crap Saturday Night Live??
Your thinking about this too much!
Here this should put you to rest! LOL (this is the most unbiased one I could find)
I am thinking that
it is a bad idea to kill any industry while bailing others out in a failing economy, but that's just my way of thinking. It seems silly to throw money at industries that are doing poorly while trying to bankrupt industries that are doing well.
Exactly what I was thinking.
nm
Now that I am thinking about it.....
That we should transcribe ESL without complaining! We should be politically correct and polite, and understanding, but the different accents just kept coming from all over the world and we were expected to be professional and productive, but that has been hard also.
Just what I was thinking of
x
I'm thinking about doing that too...(sm)
I'm 45 with at least 20 yrs to go. I figure I'll only put in money that I can spare--yeah that's a joke. Instead of buying extra stuff I don't need (assuming that's an option in the future), I'll save that back for investing.
I was thinking 7 too....are we right, m?....nm
HA HA HA HA HA - That's what I was thinking.
Oh my gosh I laughed so hard at your reply. That's the funniest all morning. Thanks for the laugh.
LOL! Thanks for saying what I was thinking, JBB.
:)
What ARE they thinking?
report on anything whatsoever that does not help to advance the culture wars? You are so right. What we need is a 24/7/365 media blitz belittling the evil prez and drumming up as much opposition as possible to any avancement toward a fix for the economy. Good luck with that. Seriously. It's about the only hope the GOP has for being able to make face in 2012 or to orchestrate that all important revolution in Congress in 2010. Hang all those pesky folks who are losing their jobs and homes.
I'm thinking that the only ones to be
bummed out by all these developments are the productive members of society, who see their lives not really being improved by all this hope and change. So it would be in the government's best interests to keep us from checking out, so that we can be kept subsidizing everyone else. This is not really concern. They are just trying to prevent escape.
I sense a little ignorance on your part, you say they are no more pro-war
than God, but then you defend them posting up pictures with guns draped around their necks. I'm trying to follow you here.
Ignorance is bliss, I guess.
Just take a look at this administration.
Give up on trying to reason with this MT person. When she still doesn't get it - even when her actual words are presented to her - this is not a normal mind.
Your ignorance and hatred know no bounds. nm
