    Errr... I plead the 5th.


    I see it akin to paying the idiot tax. (AKA, the lottery.)

    These are just my opinions of course.
    FYI, I have never donated to any political party. Now my husband is a different matter. He is a regular supporter of the Libertarians.

    Memo to Sarah Palin -

    Jesus was a community organizer,
    Pontius Pilate was a governor.

    GHWB was referring to community organizers/workers in his Thousand Points of Light speech all those years.

    Without community organizers, this country would be in much worse condition than it currently is.

    One down, hopefully none to go.

    After the last election I spent lots of time trying to get our names, addresses and phone number removed from the databases of both political parties. So far it appears that only the Democrats got the message.
    We dont' receive any calls from anyone. I wonder if it's because we have Vonage and the numbers aren't listed anywhere like the phone book or 411 unless we actually register it ourselves.

    Makes me happy LOL at least that's one less place I have to be bombarded by it lol

    I think that BO is a lawyer first. LOL, I tend to see politicians as homeless people. They sit around with their hands out, living in government subsidized homes and taking free meals from people who think they are helping them.
    --------

    LOL, I love the pomposity attached to a statement like that.


    "I know, let's say we got 10 million dollars on one day".


    "I LIKE MONEY" - Frito Pendejo/Idiocracy.

    As my math teachers would say. Show your work. Politicos don't work, they panhandle.

    In the years past I have sent Monopoly money to the candidates.


    I have to sit down and write an I.O.U. to Obama. McCain will get my Monopoly money this time.

    I think your Vonage is keeping you from receiving junk calls. I would seriously think about doing that or using my cell phone exclusively. However, we live at the bottom of a hill in the country, and it's difficult to get a cell down here. Our IP isn't the most reliable - and I would hate to be stuck without any phone.

    Yeah... definitely doesn't sound like a good idea where you are located.

    BO seems to know about redistribution of wealth, I don't think he'd know what to do with an I.O.U.
    I guess he'd tear it up and give it out to people who don't have any I.O.U.'s


    P.S. I like money.

    And here all this time I thought he was talking about "A thousand pints of Lite."


    JUST KIDDING!!!

    Spoiled child, bad
    Spoiled cat, good

  9. I think it is terribly sad...but terribly typical of the Cons to sneer at someone beginning their career in public service as as community organizer.

    They say they don't like big government - but the government has grown bigger every time they are in office. They say they support community-based solutions yet belittle the experince gained there (as if being mayor of a town about the size of the high school I attended is impressive!)

    Say one thing...do another...you were expecting something different from this group???

    Or "Flip Flop" it and think it was a grant to the U.O.I. (University of Illi-annoyed?)

    JM might but another house or a hotel with the monopoly money?

    Whose the Sekreteri of edukashun?
    --------------------
    AM,

    I don't blame him, I'd go on a month long bender as soon as my term was over.

    -----------

    What does a community organizer do?

    Make sure the houses are all in line?

    The house numbers go in order?

    Alphabetize the neighbor hood phone directory?

    WHat does a senator do?
    --------------
    Some side notes.

    Who does that Palin kid belong to? I think John Edwards
    What was Cindy McCain wearing under her 30 gazillon dollar outfit?
    I vote for bikinis and a nice lace pushup?
    Was SP riding a snowmobile outside the marriage?
    Why won't Oprah let SP on her show/
    LOL, That shows her character. She has BO on her "tribute to all things Winfrey hour" But now she won't have any of the candidates on until after the election. I bet Omarosa Obama gets the call!
    Betcha!
    JB's war record is amazing!
    Does jm talk slow or is it me?

    Isn't that the truth!?

    It really galls me when The Candidate "promises" to
    "(fill in the lame promise)"

    * Reduce Taxes
    * Increase Programs
    * Reduce Spending
    * "GIVE" us anything
    * and a dozen other hollow 'promises'

    Do they REALLY Think that I 'buy' that stuff??

    (On second thought, I guess I do *buy that stuff* ---
    Every time I pay my Taxes!)



    I wonder how may MILLIONS of votes "NONE of the Above"
    would receive if that choice was offered on Election Day?

    I know lol isn't it funny how all of those things contradict each other. Lower taxes but more programs, reduce spending but give us anything.

    WAKE UP PEOPLE... it CAN'T be both lol Nothing is free... it all has to be paid for somehow lol

    This has long been my argument about GWB. He starts a war and lowers taxes. You cannot fight a war with LESS money.

    So, he borrows the money to pay for it from the Chinese.

    Soon the Chinese will own the U.S.

    Solid Econ 101 as he likes to say.

    p.s. Many of the expenses for his war are not included in the budget deficit. It would be even LARGER if all the expenses were included.
