day trader temper tantrums
You don't cave in to a two year old, why do we cave in to wall street? Intervention cannot prevent this.
It's just the fear-driven tantrums of those who aren't getting their way. Keep posting.

Fox is throwing her under the bus..(sm)
Last night Bill O'Reilly had a reporter on that spoke about the problems Palin presented in the McCain camp. Bill didn't actually agree with what was being said, but he also didn't argue the point. Let's face it, that's not Bill's style. He argues with EVERYONE that doesn't see his point of view on that show, and yet failed to stand up for Sarah Palin, who Fox News has promoted through this whole thing. I think they were setting her up from the beginning to take the fall. In my view that does not excuse her lack of knowledge or a bunch of other stuff she has done, but I think it's sad to use someone like that.
His temper is too bad
No place for the maverick. Maybe he can pluck turkeys in Alaska with whatsherface?
I would rather be known for having a temper than for

Nothing like throwing
parties when the American people are suffering, losing jobs and homes, etc. But hey....let's spend loads of money on steak and alcohol and throw a big ole house party at the White House.
You know....if I actually saw our governemtn or Obama at least trying to NOT spend any money....I might feel a little bit more confident about our future. Makes me sick! Sick sick sick!!!!
You are an adult when you turn 18.
Where does this adult work? How are her and her future husband going to support this child? Where does he work?
I highly doubt anyone considers Bristol Palin an adult because if they did, they wouldn't have made such a big deal about it on the news?????
My 3 adult children
were energized by the election. Even if they had political views different from mine and my live-in BF, they would not be afraid to tell me. I allow them to think for themselves.
You see, you are really sick. No adult
who is coherent acts in such a manner and makes such ignorant remarks to a fellow man.
We don't kill an adult
when they are found to have terminal cancer. Why then should we kill a baby who is terminal? No logic there whatsoever.
Strange....he's an adult now ......
He wrote that book as an adult, knowing full well young and old blacks alike will read that book! If you think for one second they didn't understand those racist remarks, think again! That is the reason racism will not go away.... people like him who perpetuate it..
Believe his lies if you want!
Your subject is JM's temper....sam's is
media bias, which is rampant, 100 to 1, if not more on the side of democrats. It's a fact. Period. No amount of spinning off subject can change that.
I am not trying to deflect anything. Having a temper...
does not mean you cannot govern. And we do not know what was said before the outburst either. This is a pretty slanted list. And I can't believe you are calling it "uncontrolled outbursts." Geez.
Let's talk about something that matters. A temperature is not as dangerous as making a decision if you can't find your VP to help you. MUCH more concerning to me.
McCain is much more qualified, has much more experienced, and is more ready to lead. I am not a Republican, I have no loyalty to ANY party. I want what is best for this country, and in my opinion it is not Barack Obama. He is just lacking in too many areas. He is not a bad person, he is quite eloquent, has a lovely wife and beautiful kids. But, in my view, he is NOT ready to be President.
well, yeah....but you might want to temper it...
in case the guy picks you. It didn't go well with Kerry Edwards either. They had to live with all the stuff Edwards said about Kerry. However, Biden ALSO said that he respected John McCain
(this during the primaries) and he would he honored to be on a ticket with HIM. Bless his heart. You just never know what is going to pop out of his mouth....like saying Obama was against clean coal. That sent Obama supporters flocking to West Virginia et AL whose main economic source IS coal to do damage control. Maybe they should limit his interviews...lol. Sigh.
Palin isn't through throwing mud yet...(sm)

There you go again, throwing religion around.

Sorry, I mistakenly thought we were adult enough
It's very easy to prove or disprove what is stated there regarding this type of claim. I don't tend to believe something just because it's said on a well-constructed blog, and that is the point. Do your own research instead of parroting talking points and spewing venom. That doesn't constitute discussion of any sort.
The Hillary blog was where I first read that the IP addresses went were traced back to "Fight the Smears." I didn't know if that was possible. I have since talked with people I know who told me, yes, that can be done and that they had recently done it while trying to determine who might be the running mates of the various candidates.
Anyway, then I researched it further and found more of the same by people I have confidence in. And my trust in them is because their opinions and judgment has been proven out many times, and they stake their livelihoods on it in some cases.
Or she might be almost 18, which would make her a legal adult.
You're right. It's hard for an adult to have
a meaningful conversation with dysfunctional children.
Well, if using the "F" word indicates you have a temper problem...
I would say 95% of the male population and a good bit of the female population are in big trouble.
Biden temper, more lies...

see the commentary below the video as well.
barely controlled temper
Do you think that is why he left the hall right after the debate rather than meeting with the voters, which he referred to as "my friends" all night. He certainly didn't want to speak with his friends after the debate.
I also thought it was strange when one man asked a question about the bailout and McCain began his answer with "I bet you never heard of Fannie Mac and Freddie Mac before . . . " Yeah, because we are so stupid we never heard of it before. So condescending. At least he didn't say "I betcha"
Do your research before throwing stones

LOL I'm good at losing my temper too. n/m

On the evening 1/20, my friends are throwing a
The only thing I wish is that Mr. Obama could've taken office an hour after the votes were officially counted. As a 'parting gift' to the oil industry, Bush tried to give them drilling rights in some of Utah's most majestic national parks. Fortunately there was anough of an outcry (and I believe a lawsuit) about it, that such a travesty can be held at bay a while longer, until we finally have a SANE PERSON in the White House. It just can't happen SOON ENOUGH!
Stop being silly, please. It's the job of every thinking adult

If this is your philosophy, why are you throwing Bush's numbers around...sm
as if you are proud that he is spending more on social programs than Clinton. Just trying to understand your thinking?
Have you by any chance researched Biden's temper?
just wondering.
Throwing bleach on 70-year-old women...
destroying property...not necessary to do either of those to exercise free speech. They were acting like thugs. I believe they were going to engage in "civil" disobedience. Injuring innocent people and destroying private property is hardly civil.
I am all for free speech...I am also for respecting innocent people and the property of others.
That is throwing a bone to the democrats, honey....
so they will pass the thing, and let the rich folks' money flooding wall street fix it instead of OURS. You noticed the operative word "chance." If they still can't make their payments they ARE going to go into foreclosure and the government is not going to own their houses.
I can take it on the chin if they have ability to keep their houses if it saves us 6+ billion dollars.
THAT is my rationale.
Throwing Shoes at President Bush
I just saw a story on Headline News Network about the shoe-throwing incident, and they said the people of Iraq are divided on how they feel about it, but nobody feels it was wrong, half of them think it was the right thing to do and half think it was an embarrassment but not necessarily the wrong thing to do.
so if they feel that way, let's bring our precious sons and daughters home, and never go back. Our finances are in crisis, we can't afford to be spending billions where we're not wanted. What's the point of being there and spending all this money we could be using in much better ways. Why keep risking the lives of our troops for people who don't appreciate it at all? I'm no political genius, far from it, but plain old common sense says this is just wrong!
No new adult film star quotes for today
now you're rehasing the old one....
Long Live King George!!
Only drive-bys seem to be ruining perfectly adult conversations
We all were having good conversations and even adult disagreements until the usual drive-by suspects chimed in and make is a potty-mouth bash fest. Democrat might have lost control a little bit, but we all do at some point. You did your usual leftist troll duties by coming here and sabatoging and decent debates in process. You are not a liberal. You are someone who is so filled with hate that you cannot stand when conservatives and liberals are actually dialoguing. Yeah, it gets heated, but you are not mature enough nor do you have substance enough to tolerate adult conversation. You are a dive bomber, and you are the reason we have to be separated.
You and your minions are pretty sad people indeed.
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!
Oh pleeze...McCain cannot even keep his own temper under control..as far as his 'knowing what to
about Iran - if I am not mistaken, during his big thud of his bid for President, he let all of us know what he would do - bomb them. Look at the mess we are in NOW with Iraq - you truly want more of the same? I have a son who has been in the military for the last 20 years and he is sick of the lies that have been perpetuated by the outgoing adminstration and has lost countless friends because of the very same. McCain indeed - what a joke.
Sarcasm... isn't that what you were throwing around earlier? Just thought I'd throw some too.
Didn't realize you cornered the market. But, hey, if you want some Bible verses, I can pitch a few of those too.
Sorry if I offended you, but I imagine the OP was perhaps a little offended at your insinuation that she was a paranoid lunatic. Well, as momma always said, if you can't take the heat...

Don't dish it out if you can't eat it.

Protests erupt in Iraq in support of shoe-throwing reporter

I was trying to discuss things with you
You obviously have a great hatred for our country and our president and cannot see the difference between Bush and world leaders who are set on the destruction of the United States and Israel. The Iranian president has made his intentions known about what he wants to do to Israel and the U.S. In fact, he had a nice little P.R. campaign in his country this past week detailing what he wants to do to us. If you are so naive to believe he just wants his country to have energy from nuclear plants then I guess you deviate from what much the U.S. and the rest of world thinks about Iran's intentions.
I said the nuclear option should be the last resort as I believe our president would make it, but you are so lost in your world of conspiracy theory on Bush's character and intentions that you evidently missed that part of my post.
I would like to know where you got the so-called Bush quotes. This is the first time I've heard people actually use quotes--where did those come from? I hope not a hearsay opinion piece, because that wouldn't lend much credence to those so-called quotes.
I was actually joking with you when I made the *shopping spree* remarks. I know you are much too intelligent to actually go and do that. You may, in my opinionm be a little misguided by your emotions but I know you're not that stupid. I'm sorry you cannot see humor in someone discussing this topic with you. I'm even more sorry that you feel you have to label everyone who disagrees with you as uninformed and unthinking. People will have different opinions with you on many issues but that makes them neither stupid or uninformed. Have a nice day...
I am not asking you to discuss Israel. sm
I know that it happens all the time. I am sorry that it does.
I refuse to discuss
religion with Moonies or Scientologists. There is just no common ground. The same way as I refuse to discuss politics with people who actually consider Fox a news station. They are indoctrinated and innoculated from the truth by daily coordinated talking points to distort any event (such as saying Charlie Gibson looking down his nose at SP or was too rough on her) to favor their desire to keep the corrupt repubs in power. It's a waste of my time.
Why can't I continue to discuss
You all carry on about Obama's palling around (re: believing things that simply cannot be substantiated), but you sure can't take it when someone turns around and comments on your precious heroine. How very sad for all of you who hold this vapid, undereducated, unqualified, power hungry example of hollow charm in such high esteem. Perhaps we should be discussing your judgment instead of hers.
No, I don't argue much. I discuss or
post articles I think would be interesting to people on this board. I try not to tear down the people who post, either, not like some on this board. They have their opinion, I have mine.

Your idea of a reply very often isn't up for discussion. You seem to think it's the only one that matters. End of discussion.
Okay - let's discuss the $9 mac and cheese.
Personally, I love bacon crumbs on my mac and cheese. Anyone else?
What do you expect? You just come to antagonize not discuss.
But you don't do that. You only discuss the democratic past.
In order to smear it.
No talk about the 12 prior years of Reagan and Bush. 
A time to dissect and discuss a war...
is after your military is at home and safe, if you want to debate it pubically. The time to discuss the war and how you as an American feel about it is in private until they are safe. If you want to discuss it while they are still at war, discuss it in town hall meetings. Discuss it at your house. Discuss it at Wal-Mart. Discuss it in your front yard. Write to your congressman. But do not do it publically while men and women are still fighting. You are entitled to your feelings and to express them. However, common courtesy, in my opinion, should keep a person from going public while men and women are still fighting. All that does is embolden the terrorists. They have said so themselves and it is pretty obvious that it does. I saw an interesting report on it this morning, how that is the number one *battle front* for AL Qaeda now...just feeding the propaganda machine with the daily stuff from the American public. Frankly, I don't think that is anything to be proud of. But that is just me.
Sam does discuss issues and gets attacked for it.

What about parents who don't discuss with their kids?
And so you know right off, I'm not a Barack fan nor McCain fan. However, my own personal beliefs aside, I believe "it takes a village to raise a child" and there are FAR too many parents NOT doing their jobs these days, which forces schools, governments, etc. to jump in to help. I see far too many parents who'd just as soon go to the bar than raise their child. There are parents who are apathetic, and there are parents who are embarrassed or ill-informed themselves to teach their kids sex ed. I don't think sex ed is a problem at all in school, so long as it's in the context of health education and not presented to students in a biased manner of some sort. It IS how mammals reproduce and therefore does have a place in education.
God gave us free will and if you try to control the free will of someone else, how is that right? I believe in consequences of free will when someone chooses wrong, which is why we have laws in place. I don't believe it's any one person's or party's place to tell another how to live their life, period.
Personally, I'd like to see more parents do their jobs at home so gov't and schools didn't have to do it for them (and all the rest of us too as a result), and sure, ideally I'd like to see more kids abstaining from sex altogether. But I'm also a realist and know that my beliefs and willpower aren't the same as everyone else's. That's what is supposed to be great about USA.
The reality is that not all kids have the willpower to abstain in the heat of the moment, no matter WHAT their upbringing or what wonderful parents they have. As you said, it's everywhere - on TV, movies, ads, games, you name it! It's in their face now more than ever, so to ignore it and act like it won't ever happen isn't the answer, either. No, I don't know what the answer is, either, but I don't think that's it.
Also, to take away any access to sex ed and/or birth control at all is in a sense forcing the ideals/morals of one group of people on another and basically taking the free will of the other group - how do you reconcile that? I'm being sincere, as this question plagues me often when considering these issues.
