OK, now you've crossed the line, LOL!
I have a 1996 GT Mustang, and my first car was a 65 mustang. Say whatever you want about the presidential candidates, just leave the best car ever made alone! :)
Good argument for the 10% threshold. :) nm

Well, it has certainly crossed my mind once I
With his involvement in ACORN and his lack of condemnation for "honor" killings in this country, I became concerned this is why the secret service has been all over him, moreso than most.

Too many hard working people in this country, even those being misled up to this point in believing he is concerned about them, will soon realize where his true loyalty lies. And it is not with the white population. Knowing who he plans to give all those "increased free welfare handouts" to certainly isn't going to make things easier for them to swallow. When they suddenly realize the bum on the corner and the increase in "welfare babies" increased ten fold, and yet these folks have more than they have, and all for doing nothing but sitting on their butts, yea, I'm afraid there will be BIG problems.

Now all the O lovers can flame all they want! Truth does incite..
Has it crossed your "mind" that Bush
et. al. have not lived up to what they have said? Just wondering if there is anybody home, that's all.
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.
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. 
Her's another post the pubs won't touch

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.
Gloom and doom can't touch us now.

I received this too. Nice touch. nm

The truth usually does touch a sore 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!!!!!!!!
They can't even combined touch Kerry's wealth. Get real.
on your own bad self.
Ummm....ummm....nope, I'd best not touch that one. nm

Can't chew gum. Would've if I could've.

Even got hypnotized. Supposedly guaranteed to quit. Lasted 5 hours. Thank heavens I never smoked anything stronger.


Something I've got to say

I left this board a while back for a period of time due to the harassing emails I was getting from the former owner of this site.  It finally stopped when I told her that in the 10 years I had had email service I had never received such harassing or threatening emails and come to think of it, prior to her emails to me I had never received ANY harassing or threatening emails.  I told her if they didn't stop that I would find the proper resources to report her conduct.  She was angry because myself and two other posters were emailing to each other upset about the rampant deletion of liberal posts.  Apparently when we used the initial MTstars email form she was reading them.  In the course of her emailing me she also told one very obvious and easily discovered lie.  The whole thing was creepy.


Just wanted to get that off my chest. 


Yes, I certainly would. I've seen a lot of sm
so-called religious people do some very non-religious things.  Remember, an atheist does not believe in Satan or worship the devil either, it just means that they do not believe in God, any God.  Also, they may perhaps just not believe in organized religion.
You really believe that? Hey, I've got a really - sm
cool-looking, orange-colored bridge in San Francisco I'll sell ya really CHEAP. It's a little old and rusty, but polish it up a little, and you could probably resell it on ebay and make yourself a tidy profit. And profit's what you guys are all about, right?
Well, I've had it. sm

The hate that flies on this board is absolutely unbearable. I came to this board to compare issues of both parties and what do I see? A few people trying to give facts and get bombarded with HATE. I feel sorry for them and so CHILDISH.


What is worse is that some posters are falling into the trap by answering with just as hateful messages.


I am going happily on my way to find another place to compare issues and it WON'T BE WITH TRASH MEDIA as some are trying to force down my throat.


My mind has probably been made up for this election and I certainly won't be voting for Obama since I've seen some posters spew their hate against the republicans, although I do like Biden.


It's a shame.


That's what I've been trying to do --

gain information.  It's very difficult to get accurate information without all the slams.  Any suggestions on good websites to review these topics of interest and what each candidate's stand is on each?  I've started watching CNN.  I have to admit, I was really a Hillary supporter and now that Obama's on the ticket instead, I just don't know which evil is worse.  I thank you for your input and I will continue to delve into this mess until I can come up with my own conclusion.  I'm just trying to gain information from all angles, not relying on just 1 opinion.  I asked the question below of everyone, but no one responded. 


Does no one know the answer?  Is it ridiculous of me to think that the resolution to this crisis should not dig into my pockets?  I personally feel that the people who got those bonuses should be made to give them back, that they should be paying fines to offset this mess since they were the ones cooking the books for the bonuses. 


Yes, and that is exactly what I've been saying
one is no better than the other.
that's the best you've got?

Old story, and not an impressive one. I don't like hearing any story like that, ever.  It's no better than Clinton, but wasn't it the Dems who said that personal "affairs" were just about sex and meant nothing?  We don't know if Biden cheated or not, do we?  I don't know, but I hope not.


The Obama-Ayers-Wright-Pfleger (and on and on) affairs are far more detrimental to this country, so wake up and smell the coffee.


Can't say as I've ever used that one.
I guess she could have used terminology from Scooby Doo episodes.  Jinkies, Mr. Biden.  LOL.
That's because that's all you know....they've been
call it racism. Why do you think Obama will get the majority black votes? Because they think for themselves? Please... I have a black neighbor who says too many blacks have been led around by the nose by people like Jesse Jackson, AL Sharpon, and now says this Judas Barry Obama is showing up. She is not so easily fooled but she feels like her race has been sold down the river by this man. Instead of encouraging them, he wants to give them more handouts and keep them down, so they can continue to feel "entitled" becaues of their color.

Too bad so many others are.
LOL Now you've really done it!!!
Added everything I love.  I grew up on this chow and swore when I was "growed up" I would never eat it again.  Guess what?  I'll take that stuff over steak any day of the week.  Now I gotta make a Sweet 'tater pie!!!!  Didn't get anything to eat, we were planning for cooking for the re-enactment group that will be doing their re-enactment here the first weekend in Dec. 
Is that all you've got?
I read the board, I read the blogs, I watch TV, I listen to my relatives. So yes, I think that gives me a good idea.
Yes, he has. Where've you been?
Do you think the Dems would've let him run if he could be disqualified? Do you think McCain wouldn't have made it front and center if his high-paid dirt-diggers could've found ANYTHING? Just because you wish it to be true doesn't make it true.
Like i've said before
Anyone who didn't have their heads in the clouds, drinking the kool-aid, out of fear, or just flat out ignorant could have seen him for what he really was loooong before now. Whites have done what is right, but make no mistake, I owe no one anything and never did.

There are many racists who will take this opportunity to exploit everything.......sadly enough Obama has gotten right in line with them. When you start using MY taxes to pay for "projects" and you say what color the people have to be that work on those projects, there is a word for that.

Just keep tuned.....his true colors are there
I probably would. I've been there and like it.
Trade houses? LOL
sm....You've go to know that....
You've got to know that I have truly BEEN THERE, DONE THAT, or I would be keeping my mouth/fingers shut/quiet - lol!  On my 18th birthday, I moved out of home.  I have a military dad (marine) and no longer wanted to live a military-style household.....so I left.  I did not have a place to go, so stayed with my cousins for a bit.  I ended up moving into a duplex with a friend of my cousin's husband - I did not even know the guy.  We split rent on this duplex and worked opposite shifts...so it was like each of us having our own place.  I was really "full of myself" because I was working FT with my own place to stay....so I went a little crazy on the "partying," and ended up pregnant myself, just a few months after leaving home.  I WAS ON BIRTH CONROL PILLS, but antibiotics I was on at the time had contradicted the efficacy of my BCPs.  Shortly after suspecting (but without confirmation) I was pregnant, my roomate and I had a disagreement and he threw me out!  I was then homeless and most likely pregnant.  I went to the Health Department and got a free pregnancy test, and my hypothesis was confirmed.  So....I was HOMELESS and PREGNANT and had been on BIRTH CONTROL pills.  I could have gotten a FREE ABORTION on your TAX PAYER DOLLARS but, instead, I got a second job, applied for food stamps, found a cheap apartment in a bad part of town, and had my baby.  I then worked my way up to bigger and better things, but I did not take the EASY WAY OUT and ABORT/KILL my baby.  People are soooo lazy!!!  The easy way - or no way at all.....is how most people look at life these days.  Our forefathers worked the earth to provide food....but everyone today wants that quick burger or veggie fix - no time to waste.  WHEN I WAS ON BCP'S, I STILL COULD HAVE USED A SECONDARY FORM OF PROTECTION!!!  There is not a single person in this forum that was not given a WARNING about the RISK OF PREGNANCY WHILE ON BIRTH CONTROL PILLS when you got your prescription.  Sorry.....but everyone's "sob stories" over trying to JUSTIFY ABORTION are truly PATHETIC.  I am sorry for your daughter, but she apparently overcame, and now you have a BEAUTIFUL and WONDERFUL grandchild that may one day grow up to be PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!  Why would anyone want to ABORT something like that?  (P.S.  I had a very hard time with my second pregnancy also, and raised two children WITHOUT CHILD SUPPORT, but I will not go into that story at this time.  I have been "advised" by others to have abortions, but chose to preserve my morality and continue to regard life as PRECIOUS.  Life is not a BED OF ROSES.)
I'm m......... I've always been m...... sm
and I'll always be m. I don't mind getting slammed for my beliefs...I'm kind of used to it. LOL
Thank you!!! - that's what I've been trying to say
Some people have no clue though. They think if Obama is doing it, it's okay. They don't care about right or wrong. I'm truly disgusted that our tax money is going to fund their parties for their own pleasure. Especially since everyone who attends their parties are rich enough they could pay for it themselves, but instead they use our money.

I've been researching trying to find anything that says they are paying for it themselves, but not finding anything. I found something about a white house budget, but again that budget is funded by taxpayers money.

Since it's my taxpaying money you bet I've got a problem with how they are spending it. Especially in these hard times and what America is going through.

What was it Marie Antoinette said "If they have no bread let them eat cake". I'm starting to see a similarity here.
You've got some of it right
I am prior military and this is the way it works.

Pentagon asks the President for the okay to proceed. The president simply states yay or nay. When you say "outlining a mission" if you are referring to the actual planning of it, no the President does not have anything to do with the plans, but he is informed by the leaders of how the scenario will work out and then he agrees or not. The military leaders are the ones who create the plan and enforce it (complete the action).

The problem with what happened during the Bush years was that Bush trusted the wrong people. When he was told by a group of people that this was there or that was there, he believed them and did not question. One thing that was learned from that was to question everything.

But a lot of people are under the mistaken identity that the president sits and plans the mission out with the military leaders, and he does not. He listens to them and then just okays it.
Seriously? That is the best you've got?
How very, very pathetic.
I've always said................ sm
Yank that Golden Fleece Retirement Plan and see how fast they get things fixed. Chances are slim to none that that will ever happen, but a person can dream.
I've said this before and I will say it again.

It seems to me that liberals are the ones crying and whining abour their rights.  Just like people telling government to stay out of their uteruses.  You didn't seem to have a problem with hospitals and doctors' rights when they were taken away when they were forbidden to refuse performing abortions.  You didn't have a problem with those rights being taken away.  You complain about Christians taking rights away from others.  We are the ones who aren't allowed to pray in public without fear of being made fun or just outright attacked these days.  But for you to say that we are the ones who have no problems taking away rights from others when you liberals have no problems taking away rights of other people as long as you get your way.......talk about your double standards. 


These people were not forcing others to listen to their Bible study.  There is no reason why they can't have Bible study in a private home. 


You kept complaining about conservatives wanting revenge against terrorists and that is why we are for enhanced interrogation but here yourself you say that you normally would have sympathy but because of their group doing things you don't agree with, you have no sympathy.  Is this revenge on your part?  This group doesn't believe like you and doesn't agree with a liberal agenda and so therefore it is okay for them to be attacked for having a Bible study in a private home?  Once again....double standards.


I don't think we've gone as far

He may not be prosecuted, but if the person who placed that ad can be identified,  he's in for a very thorough federal proctological exam. 


I've seen...
similar figures here and there and considering the era probably correct as anyone can guesstimate. I wasn't completely understanding the thread initially (short on time), now I do. Thanks.
Now you've done it.....LOL..(sm)
They'll be getting the pitchforks and guns right about now. 
As I've said before - you really don't want to
But, more to the point, Republicans haven't been interested in what goes on in anyone else's bedroom for a very long time, so this author needs to wake up and smell the coffee. This isn't just "old hat" stuff - it's completely moldy - and besides, isn't this author getting into the Governor's bedroom habits? Doh!

Both Democrats and Republicans need to hold our leaders up to standards that at least meet the test of decency.
You've never debated

you've just slammed Bush and anyone who likes Bush.  Point to one thread where you've debated someone like an adult without resorting to the worlds idiots puke and other assorted adjectives up to and including curses words to slam Bush and people who like him?


 


GT I've noticed something
the more you get your hackles up your limited vocabulary becomes that much more limited.
I've moderated nothing

I've only broken it down to the simplest form to try and make you understand.  We're having a debate which makes any political board interesting, and I'm not the least bit angry at you all, but you all seem very angry with me.  It's really sad that adults can't come to opposing viewpoint boards and have civil conversations. It really is quite boring.   It really shows what a sad state are culture is in.  Our culture endorses immaturity and touchy feelings which is quite sad.  I'll wander back to the other boards I frequent where people manage to debate (most of the time) without getting all snitty at the people with opposing viewpoints.


God bless....


No! You've got it all wrong!!

Bush has the utmost respect for the media.  Why, if it wasn't for the media, Bush wouldn't even have known that he's been selected for jury duty.  (Of course, he's got expertise in getting out of things requiring *duty* to his country, so he won't be Juror #200-whatever this time around.  The good news is the no court will have to suffer through Bush's *judgments,* which leads me back to Iraq.


Bush would never do anything to impede freedom of speech.  He wants all Iraqis to have freedom of speech.  He loves freedom of speech (except maybe for that time he wanted to blow up Al Jazeera, before Blair talked him out of it).


And Bush would NEVER condone paying for what's nothing more than propaganda promoting something he thinks is good (except maybe for that time he paid radio talk show host Armstrong Williams $241,000 to promote the *No Child Left Behind* program on his radio show).


Hmmmmmmmmm... MY BAD.  You don't have it wrong at all.  Matter of fact, you're right on the money!


Looks like you've been swiftboated, PK
It's sad, really, but perhaps you did strike a nerve, as independent thinking is a dangerous threat to little brains who rely on shrieking bubble heads such as Coulter to do their thinking for them. Well let's read a few Coulter quotes, shall we?

**We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war.**

**When contemplating college liberals, you really regret once again that John Walker is not getting the death penalty. We need to execute people like John Walker in order to physically intimidate liberals, by making them realize that they can be killed, too. Otherwise, they will turn out to be outright traitors.***


COULTER: I take the biblical idea. God gave us the earth.

PETER FENN (Democratic strategist): Oh, OK.

COULTER: We have dominion over the plants, the animals, the trees.

FENN: This is a great idea.

COULTER: God says, Earth is yours. Take it. Rape it. It's yours.

FENN: Terrific. We're Americans, so we should consume as much of the earth's resources...

COULTER: Yes! Yes.

FENN: ... as fast as we possibly can.

COULTER: As opposed to living like the Indians.





Oh you've seen pictures!!!

Well, there's the proof then!!!! 


I think Lamont won a primary in a state where if I'm not mistaken tends to be a blue state.  I think there's still and election to be held.  He'll probably win, because as you stated above.  If a state tends to go Democrat or Republican they will tend to go that way again.  I believe the polarization has reached such a point that the liberal states will become even more left, and the right states will become more right.  There were a few pesky little states in the presidential election that went to republicans that usually go to democrats, but presidential elections are not always cut and dry like Senate and House elections tend to be.
