Don't you wish? You cant touch him
Just look at the contrast. A week of hope, light, vision, excitement, praise, even from the most skeptical pundits, no scandals, no skeletons in the closet. Success, despite your best efforts to cast the candidate as a rock star wannabe, ridicule the setting and minimize the record-breaking numbers in the audience.
Another week, we have gloom, doom, pesky natural disasters, reminiscent of past pub leadership deficits, disappearing keynote speakers (plural), invisible in the leadership roles they use as an excuse in their haste to escape out the back door, hiding behind an obviously nervous wife who has been plugged in as a last minute substitute, a hugely angered female population, dissed and insulted by an ill-advised, pandering VP pick, ridiculed for lack of experience and plunged into scandal...and we haven't even reached the end of the first day.
There seem to be forces much greater than you or I, our parties or our leaders in play as we progress through what I am sure will be a most interesting week, full of suprises on both sides of the aisle. Hey, honey, please pass the popcorn.
Is this guy out of touch?

This is how out of touch McCain is
I heard he offered something like $300K (forget exact sum) to someone who comes up with a vehicle that runs on battery. Hellooooooo... there is already one already. It's called the electric car. So why is he offering that huge sum to someone (I have no doubt one of his friends will probably "come up" with this. IMO, this is what the republicans are all about...giving their friends lots of money for nothing. How bout importing the car that runs on water (think its over in Japan). I also heard there is a vehicle made in another country that would cost about $1200 (forget right now if its hybrid, electric or what), but it also uses no fuel. But none of these cars are being allowed to be sold in the US. Why? Because the car dealers are not allowing that to happen. They won't allow anything but their gas guzzling ones.
Maybe she will run for the top spot in 4 years...who knows??
Yeahhhh.
Tina Fey spot on again. sm
Though I am sure Palin "did not watch it, kept the volume all the way down and could not hear a thing she said". Yeah. Sure. We are all stupid enough to believe that.

voting on the spot ---
They voted, but again the paperwork had to be turned into the polling offices to be counted and if the registration does not match up or is not legal, then the vote is not counted. That is why they are being looked at for "registration fraud". There is no voter fraud until an illegal vote is actually counted.
The guy who said it was their own fault was spot on...SM
We see on here naive individuals who say "it can't happen here, we have the second amendment". These people are our enemy within.
Many nations are now disarmed and the United Nations goal is the ban of all small arms. Do you know anyone who likes the United Nations? That's right the messiah.
Some interesting Hitler quotes. A few years ago many could be found. today it's tougher to find them, and the one about gun control that was common 20 years ago some sites say is false. Most of his gun control quotes are missing. Interesting.
This one is reported true from one site:
Quote: |
This year will go down in history! For the first time a civilised nation has full gun registration! Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead in the future!” Adolph Hitler, 1935. |
Yet reported as false from another. I think the first I seen this quote was in the early 1980's. Two years ago it was common on the internet. When I first seen it years ago the date and place were also included. Was it false, or what gives.
I checked further and found this in a historical reference.
Quote: |
The Nazis did pass a weapons law in 1938, but that only added restrictions to the previous law, especially for Jews and other "non-citizens." |
They say a very restrictive law was already in place and did not require Hitler to do anything but strengthen it.

The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms.
If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.
I use emotion for the many and reserve reason for the few.
Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it.
Sooner will a camel pass through a needle's eye than a great man be "discovered" by an election.

What good fortune for governments that the people do not think.
When an opponent declares, "I will not come over to your side," I calmly say, "Your child belongs to us already... What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community."

Speech November 1933, quoted in The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William Shirer
What luck for rulers, that men do not think. |
Got to love how they get in touch huh?
LOL the power of the internet.
Well I looked up the Southern Baptist Convention and it looks like our resolutions are against it. I just wanted to be sure!

This is my biggest thought on it. I believe that God gives life. It is a sacred gift. I know you are a Jew so you don't believe in Christ as the Messiah (right? forgive me if I'm wrong) but for Christians we do believe he was. He was created and formed in the womb just as we are created and formed in the womb. Thank God Mary didn't abort Him!
While it is not mentioned directly in the Bible, I don't think it's hard to see that God views life as something not to be taken lightly. I think like all other vile things that have been created in this world, abortion was created through sin. Just as Christians shouldn't take part in pornography, or drugs, or drunkenness, we should not take part in abortions.
I understand that not everyone is Christian. To them I say they have bigger problems to worry about than whether or not they are committing a sin.
I honestly believe in a godly society abortion wouldn't even be mentioned. Of course in a godly society people wouldn't be running around having sex with whomever, whenever, and however and the gift of a child would be viewed as just that, a gift.
But that's the world we know, unfortunately.
It's just unfortunate all the great lives that have probably been lost due to someone's "inconvenience".
he wouldn't touch
your fat fanny with a padded 10 foot pole. He is happily married to an educated woman.
I tend to think, after reading this, t hat you are the one out of touch
with Jewish teachings. It would seem to me that rabbis saying these things would carry a lot more weight. As far as the number who attended, that doesn't seem important. It is what they are saying that carries import. I don't think you speak for the Jewish community.
Very well put Tired MT. Your analysis is spot on. sm
I have been reading the posts for quite a while and I have to agree with you. If you don't agree with political viewpoints on this board, you are jumped on with both feet. I have been on the receiving end of it alos. I figure it this way, I must have really struck a nerve to get people so incensed that they go ballistic. I do have to say that Sam can more than hold her own and I love reading what she has to say. Kudos to Sam for having the courage of her convictions and kudos to you for putting a finger on the problem.
Her's another post the pubs won't touch
nm
Sorry, wrong spot, I have reposted above.

It is the way of a democracy. I keep in touch with my senators and one...sm
lone representative. I pay attention to whether they vote in my best interest and are honest in their dealings and let them know if I disagree, and vote or not vote for them in the next election. You are naive if you think that democrats are solely responsible for this meltdown. Looking for the other party to blame is counterproductive and will help no one. Money hungry greed is what has led us to this and both parties are to blame.
Excellent article that is spot on !! nm

Gloom and doom can't touch us now.

I received this too. Nice touch. nm

Maybe we should nominate HIM for a cabinet spot?....
He would have my vote. I like his thinking. I am more than ready to retire.
Yes, you are right. My post is in the wrong spot, I gueess. I do it sometimes. SM
But of course, I am probably lying. I'll say it first so you don't have to. Unless you just want to that is.
I love your very spot-on, colorful description!!
xx
Wow, spot on . . .10 billions dollars a month . . .
for that war. For what? OIL. That money could go a long way to making sure EVERYBODY had healthcare and dramatically speed up the process of developing alternative energy sources! Why can no one see how much sense this makes?
Yes I did, sbMT. Posted this in the wrong spot.

He did not let it touch the ground - he didn't "wad" it up
If that's what you saw, then the only thing I can say is you were all for the Mexican flag flying above the American flag. This hero came in and cut it away from the other flag and did not let it touch the ground (which you obviously do not know is a sign of respect). But you cannot fold it properly by yourself. He also had the courage to stand in front of the camera and give his name and what he was doing. He did not wad up the flag, he put it under his arm to take back to wherever he went and give it the respect it deserves. The people who had their flag flying above the American flag should be arrested, deported back to Mexico where they can fly their flag above others, and their business should be shut down. What do you think would have happened if someone had flown the American flag above the mexican flag in their own country?
Get a grip!!!!!!!!
It's over, and she will not be a sore loser sm
Naturally her supporters are disappointed and some are over the top with it. Hillary will not be a sore loser and, on the contrary, she will support Obama and encouage her supporters to as well, watch and see. I'm not a supporter of hers either. It was a hard fought contest, that is what democracy is about. She fought the fight, lost, and will do everything that she can to support Obama and unify the party.
Take my word for it.
You RR's are sore losers nm
nm
They can't even combined touch Kerry's wealth. Get real.
 on your own bad self.
The shoe thrower would have been executed on the spot under Saddam....nm
...most likely.....
Yep, I've lready crossed the you-can't-touch-me-now threshold.

sometimes people are sore losers
it happens. i cant say that I would be happy and nice if O was doing bad. But he isnt! He is gonna win!!!!!!!
How can we be sore losers - nobody has won or lost yet.
Shouldn't count your chickens. Remember Bush/Gore and Bush/Kerry and if your old enough Nixon/Kennedy.
As they say "It's not over til the fat lady sings" (and I'm the fat lady. HA HA HA)
They are just incredibly SORE LOSERS
.
Because this board is only for sore losers now
We have nothing to defend.
They, on the other hand, have large axes to grind and since there are no more Obama supporters left who come to this poison pen palace, they just have a field day with each other.
It is a sad display of narrow-minded ignorance and I thank GOD I am not a Republican!
Just don't post here anymore, Amanda. It has become a refuge for the sick and twisted minds to support each other. Nothing more than that.
Wow you are an angry SORE LOSER! LOL
Take your ball and go on home! LOL
SORE LOSER! TRAITOR!
All of America stood in line to vote your REPUBLICANS OUT OF OFFICE. Now, you lost. Take your ball and go home. And sulk over there. You are on time out!
Your SORE LOSER rants are truly, truly sad.
The rants of a 5-year-old who didn't win. And who didn't win HANDILY! Crying, angst-ridden, moaning and gnashing of teeth. All, sad, truly sad... Look, put your big-girl panties on and listen to this: YOU LOST. THE GOOD GUYS WON. GET THE BLEEEEEEP OVER IT! You are making a spectacle of yourself, children!!
GROW UP SORE LOSER!
Please, put on those big-girl panties, stop crying, get that stiff upper lip and GROW THE BLEEEEEP UP!! YOU LOST. AMERICA WON!
I suspect the "sore spot" lies beneath the bonnet......nm

Someone is a sore loser OBAMA IS CLASSY nm
nm
Wow another angry rant by a SORE LOSER!
You LOST. The Good Guys Won. Get OVER IT! You'll feel better when you begin to confront your angry, hurt feelings and realize how much America repudiated your TREASON and your HATE.
You are such a sore loser already. Don't give up on McCain BWAHHHAHAHA
XXXXX LMAO
Ah yes, another intelligent, adult comment from a SORE LOSER!
LOL! YOU LOST. AMERICA WON! Grow up and if you can't grow up, LEAVE!
AMERICA AND OUR PRESIDENT--LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT!
Calls for *maturity* from a childish SORE LOSER??
Pot meet kettle. SNORT. LOL!
The truth sounds rude when put bluntly but still is the truth. nm
!!!! hahaha
I totally agree, gloating winners, sore losers and
sore Shelly
nope, y'all are sore democrat winners. Obamas are proven bigots and
they'll show their true colors again soon, not to worry.
Liberal truth vs. Conservative truth.
x
The truth, the whole truth and nothing but...It's probably the biggest...sm
reason why I am voting democrat...they seem more honest than the the republicans and it looks like people are starting to get smart and *bailin' Palin*... We don't need to keep hearing her *greatest hits" version of her acceptance speech over and over and McSame's POW story...that was then, this is now...we need REAL change and we need it NOW. I don't need someone to push the red button, I need someone to fix the economy!
Truth? The truth is she is nuts!
nm
I'm a gloating winner, but there is no such thing as a SORE winner!
silly
Ummm....ummm....nope, I'd best not touch that one. nm
