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!

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
I think the vanity fair cover was not a smart thing for her to do...sm
even though she wore a scar and big glasses.


No, shallow Sally. Repubs are smart, but lefties

Socialism
AMEN!!!
The era of socialism
With the bailout by the US government, each and every one of us will be mortgage lenders to the tune of $7000 per taxpayer.  We will officially be socialists, brought to you by your favorite political party the REPUBLICANS. 
what's so bad about socialism?
bring it on!
You won't get socialism. That is #1....
and frankly my greatest concern with Obama.

McCain is the only one talking about reforming Washington, freezing spending except in crucial programs until we get out of this mess...he is talking about more affordable health care, not government controlled health care. Yes, Obama says you can keep your employer insurance and if you can't, the government will take care of you. HOw long do you think employers will be able to offer insurance under Obama's socialist agenda? Not long, because he is increasing taxes on them. And not accidentally either. One step further down the road to socialism.

And I am ready for naming names and showing some responsibility. Unless Obama is an id*ot, he knows that Dodd and Frank are up to their eyeballs in this mess. He should call for their resignations. THAT would show character, which seems to be important to you. The democratic leadership instead PRAISE them for their roles in engineering this bailout. That to me is a total LACK of character. McCain called for the resignation of the Republican involved...Chris Cox. THAT is character.

I see absolutely nothing but a downhill spiral in an Obama administration. The USSA. Venezuela north. NO thank you.
Not only socialism....

he is not even President yet and his campaign and followers are practicing big-time intimidation.  That reporter in Florida had the guts to ask Biden a hard question, the campaign says no soup for you!  Cancelled the rest of the scheduled interviews.  Said they would not be given access in an Obama administration.  A maxed-out contributor to Obama's campaign ordered a background check on Joe the Plumber...just an average American who asked Obama a hard question.  People have been threatened when they say anything negative about him.  What are these people going to do if they get REAL power?  Food for thought.


 


socialism

Socialism refers to a broad set of economic theories of social organization advocating state or collective ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods, and the creation of an egalitarian society.


So it's okay to consistently call Obama a socialist and not Palin?  Do you even look this stuff up or is that just you being Mavericky?


socialism

An economics professor at Texas Tech University , Lubbock , TX said he had never failed a single student before but had, once, failed an entire class. The majority of that class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. The professor then said ok, we will have an experiment in this class on socialism.
 
All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A. After the first test the grades were averaged, everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. But, as the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too, so they studied little. The second Test average was a D! No one was happy. When the 3rd test rolled around the average was an F.

The scores never increased as bickering, blame, name calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for anyone else.


All failed to their great surprise and the professor told them that socialism would ultimately fail because the harder to succeed the greater the reward but when a government takes all the reward away, no one will try or succeed.




 
When You Reward Failure, All You Get is More Failure!

Viva socialism!!

if you're going to make a statement gt don't beat around the bush.  Just come right out and say it.


I'm sure they would welcome you with open arms.
