Don't paint all Dems with the same brush. There are extremistis...sm
in every party, repubs and dems alike. This is a sick joke, not worthy of anyone with any intelligence.
My, we sure are painting all conservatives with a broad brush...
I have criticized Bush on numerous thing, including this pandering to the Mexicans in regard to our border control. Please don't assume every conservative is just a lock step mindless zombie. Lots of people say that about liberals, but I disagree with that too. There are a million shades of gray, across both sides of the political aisle.
The libs hate Ann Coulter because.....
She is thin, blonde, wears fur, and has a brain to go with her good looks. No fool that woman.
The old double standards. Libs hate it. sm
no way PR is on the WH staff, but just keep on talking. You just look more foolish all the time. Chavez has been accusing the US of trying to off him for a long time. PR was just echoing that, but who really cares.
Paint vegetables?
I certainly don't see eye to eye with you about SP as I like her, but I just don't see how we got from discussing SP to painting vegetables. LOL! Are these ceramic vegetables?
Wow--and you paint me to be the judgemental one?
you seem to have a "my way or the highway" attitude yourself.
Maybe we can paint "Made in the USA" over
the "Made in China" labels on the toxic drywall they shipped to us and sell it back to them, along with all the other dangerous and toxic things they send to us.

He has got to paint as dark a picture as
pretty good job of it, so when just a glimmer of light shines through, he can tell you, Yes, I Did!
But, I sure hate to bust your bubble, we are noncombustible, we are not going extinct, we ain't going anywhere! We just here praying for our country.
I would rather watch paint dry than listen to him lie
Before you paint pre-war Iraw so rosy, do some reading.

Hi, gourdpainter, where were you? Did you paint gourds for the holidays? .....nm

You are the one woh needs a brush up.
When the electoral college "overturns" the popular vote, it happens because the delcared victor has won the states with the most electoral votes....the way Obama has done with a WAY more than ample margin of 192 PROJECTED electoral votes. There were 3 times this happened, not 4 as you claim(did you read your own article?). The 4th time was when the electoral votes were tied and the House of Represenatives decided the election (1824). In the other 3 instances, the widest margin of difference between the popular votes was 3.1% (in the 1876 election)...less than half the 6.8% margin Obama holds over McCain. The popular vote margin of difference in 1888 was only 0.8% and in 2000, even less at 0.5% (with considerable help from a little fraud and voter suppression here and there).
So the answer to the other poster's question would be NO, in history the election has never been overturned by the electoral college with this wide of a margin....NOT EVEN CLOSE. That would make her premise valid....you'd be grasping at straws. Suck it up. Obama is our next president.
YOU, whoever your are, should brush up on your history!..nm
nm
Better brush up on your French, Sirpercy.
Tit-for-tat. Tsk, Tsk. Time to brush the teeth.
su
You need to brush up on your civics/history.......... sm
And for the record about 5% is not a large margin.
The electoral college has overturned the popular vote 4 times in history and some of the "politicking" that went on in those days rivals what we have today.

He should have been clearin' brush in Crawford, doggone it!
You betcha!
I wonder if he'll be allowed to take the famous brush!!
With respect to "the brush," didn't...
...he say recently (I'm paraphrasing here) that he'll still have the brush, but since he's no longer governor, the brush will be smaller. LOL!
English not so good. Sad for you. So much hate. Life too short hate.
x
Oh I see....you hate small town folks, you hate Christians...
and you hate the military...you are also coming into real clear view.
And, of course, the libs never do that to anyone do they? sm
All libs, please read.
There are a number of trolls on here. The best thing to do is not give in to the temptation to feed them. If they are simply ignored, they will find somewhere else to go. Get it? I ask that you not respond to their posts. It is even helpful to do a google and get the real definition of an internet troll and how to best deal with them.
and we don't have to be *tolerant* of libs
pushing their ideals down our throat or down our children's throats in public school either....
Oh, that's right, the libs are NEVER belittling...
you have had too much kool aid.
That's right, the libs never say anything inflammatory about anyone...nm

Just out of curiosity, where do all you libs think (sm)
the GOP folks you think are dying away or leaving are going? Do you honestly think they're moving to the Democrat party? Really???? Don't you realize that over the course of history the GOP and Dems have always had course corrections in their parties? You do remember that MLK was a republican in the 60s, right?
I am proud to be a republican, but I know that my party is changing. We don't have a solid front-runner. Palin (while I personally liked her) needs more experience before taking that high of an office. Most of our most public figures are older white men.
Obama got elected on style. He's a smooth talker, acts cool, and was different. A slightly higher majority of Americans (and trust me, the election was not a landslide, only about 10% difference which ain't much) voted him in. I don't like him. He's obnoxiously arrogant, and I don't like him apologizing for our country. Yes, Bush was arrogant too, but it was a different kind of arrogance. He knew he was the leader of the most powerful nation in the world and I believed he did what he felt was best for our country. While you all hated his reasons, I trusted him.
Obama, on the other hand, his arrogance is that he thinks he's better than the rest of us. The attitude that comes across is one of we should just be happy to be in his presence. He's book smart. But his inexperience is obvious. He's a puppet. Just like you libs thought Chaney was pulling the strings, Obama is just the same. It's obviously not Biden (good Lord, what an imbicile), but there are plenty of others behind the scenes pulling those wires.
All I'm saying is that I'm just going to watch and wait. My party will rebound and the Dems will eventually implode as is going to happen because each party always does. You're partying now after your so-called 8 years of hell, but I'm just waiting.
Sheesh, you not only hate Bush, you hate PEOPLE!

I love it when the libs are wrong! NM
Libs cons. It's just an abbreviation. sm
We can help that their abbr. fits their party the best - cons. Nina may have convinced herself that she comes in peace just to debate, but there was no reason for her to blow up in response to your post here.
And the others are propaganda machines for libs...
to each his own, as you say.
Libs talking about themselves here, no doubt...sm
can you say....mud sling fest. all night long ????
Right, funny to you, but hurts the libs
nm
You libs are as predictable as the tides. LOL nm
xxx
Not in the real world of dems/libs who are
nm
Oh well. Looks like libs have fallen back into favor.
is how we stage our revolutions. This one is long overdue and while lamenting this cruel turn of events, you might want to ask yourself why all this is happening. Could it be that W, his cronies and right-wing fringers have overplayed their hand and the voters are fed up with lies, deception, misinformation, politics of fear, division and the culture war, and yet the McCain camp keeps right on keepin' on. When you do a poor job, you get fired. That's the way it works. Change is what they want and change is what they are going to get. We are getting ready to write a new chapter in our history that will move us far beyond that mentality and will thrust us onto the threshold of the post post-911 era. I can't wait to get started and thank God I have managed to live long enough to watch it all unfold.
That would explain why the libs were single-handedly
the rise of the Beat Generation, the counter-culture revolution of the 60s, the success of the civil right's movement and the VietNam, Gulf War and Iraq anti-war movements, not to mention the fact that they have been champions of all sorts of dissenting opinions/movements. Advocating for Palestinian statehood comes to mind.
Four libs against 1 conservative...wow....how biased can that show be...sm
...that show is a joke.
Do you know how silly the libs sound by blaming everything
that happened in the last eight years on Bush?
I predict, that Obama will not take responsibility for anything that happens in next two years at least, maybe four....it will all be Bush's fault in some way.
And those won't be my words. They will be Obama's words.
Wait and see.
How much confidence can you have in president who takes no personal responsibility, or a Congress that takes no personal responsibility in their own legislation, blaming Bush for their own bailout legislation that they wrote?
Dems always change the rules.
It's happening again, slowly and surely.
If you don't think libs hold the dems accountable
They are harsher in their criticisms than the conservatives.
Libs always attack messenger instead of message.
They forget that this is not Bush’s porkfest, it’s Obama’s, all trillion of it, and yes, there will be more.
They don’t want to be educated on the Bush tax cuts. Tax revenues increased between 2003-2007.
http://www.cbo.gov/ftpdocs/87xx/doc8792/11-2007-MBR.htm
Go to the 'Receipts' table. This is a table showing how tax revenues increased between 2005-2007.
But I guess Democrats would say Dick Cheney sneaked into the CBO and changed the numbers.
How is it that Liberals claim to be able to read our minds? I would try to read a Liberal’s Mind, but I don’t like short stories, comic books, or things written in crayon. LMAO! HIC!"
Fox is the leader of the pack and it cheeses libs off.
CNN pays for ad time during O'Reilly's show. That just cracks me up.
Fox Rocks. Even CNN knows that. They're desperately trying to attract a few viewers by advertising during the Fox lineup.
Sounds like you libs....can hardly wait for Monday revelations....
.
Who put the libs on this board in charge of free speech?
Joe has the right of free speech too. He asked a simple question, which Obama freely answered outlining socialism 101, and what did Joe get for that? A background check! And you can hail free speech and be okay with that in the same breath? Your hypocrisy is showing...and showing...and showing.
And you keep trying, and unsucessfully, to deflect from the true point. Understandably, because your focus is the big "O", the truthgiver, the one who will save the world. LOL. Free speech indeed. You don't believe in free speech unless it benefits you and the big "O."
Nothing in my post said anything about free speech. It just tried (and in vain I understand)...to stay on point...Obama's ANSWER.
Never mind, the no name posts explain it. You're just here to take a DUMP on the libs...nm

I know it's hard a concept for the dems/libs, but Rush says what he means.
He doesn't sugar coat. He's got his problems, but he owns them. He doesn't dance around them, sweep them under the carpet, double talk his way out of it. I mean, we aren't going to wake up tomorrow and find out Rush has been hanging with terrorists, is a closet muslim, or the antichrist.
There's a certain honesty to Rush that some people like and others don't.
Oops, meant "not clueless." Perhaps I'm not clueless but need to brush up on
nm
No conservatives either
The last time I looked at cons board there were no conservatives there either, just extreme right-wing nuts.
I mean conservatives. sm
True conservatives. The ones who don't believe in abortion, believe our money should be ours to spend, are fiscally conservative, and believe in smaller government. The true conservative Reagan Republican. I seriously doubt any of them were there. And yes, libertarians are conservative as well, for the most part. I don't know if they were there are not. The conservative pundits I follow who are libertarian were definitely not there.
If the conservatives think SP is sm
so great, why does the conservative talk radio in my city basically treat her as a sex object, wanting to see her naked or in suggestive clothing, etc.? I even think they put a suggestive picture of her on their web site. I think its so disrespectful and I'm not even going to vote for her! Talk about sexist. Does this go on in other cities? I can understand ratings and revenue but we talking about possibly the second most powerful person in the country and they can't even be respectful!  A man isn't treated this way. Maybe conservatives are the ones afraid of a strong woman.
I just love it when Conservatives are
