OK this is funny stuff....cool


when you're as vocal as I am about this stuff you become the clearing house for all your buddies. One of my co-workers.....a dyed in the wool liberal sent me this....he has a great sense of humor. Thanks Dale.

Another Funny...WTG Biden....cool

I know that this may be hard to believe....but I watch the Daily Show on Comedy central. I am aware that Jon Stewart is a flaming liberal...but he is funny....and at times, he roasts both sides.

Click here to see this funny Biden video

Thanks to Denise for forwarding this video to me!

Happy Halloween.....cool

The coolest and best thing about this Halloween....????? My 11 year old son wants me to go with him. He was surprised when I told Denise that I thought I would be home this year. "No way Dad,...you're with me" Cannot get any better than that....period.

On that happy note...I give you a funny video in the honor of Halloween.....of course it has to be political!

Enjoy

Cut taxes for 95%....BS....not cool

If I hear Obama say he is going to give a tax cut to 95% of the people in the country one more time I may hurl. Let's take a peak at taxes...

Obama thinks the Bush tax cuts are horrible......yes he has said it many times...
Obama says that he will allow the Bush tax cuts to expire in 2009.....yes I have personally heard him say this also!

OK with that said....here is some tax information on how just that one decision will effect you:

INCOME TAX

MCCAIN (no changes)

Single making 30K - tax $4,500
Single making 50K - tax $12,500
Single making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 60K- tax $9,000
Married making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 125K - tax $31,250

OBAMA
(reversion to pre-Bush tax cuts)
Single making 30K - tax $8,400
Single making 50K - tax $14,000
Single making 75K - tax $23,250
Married making 60K - tax $16,800
Married making 75K - tax $21,000
Married making 125K - tax $38,750


Now with that said..... He is going to allow the bush cuts to lapse and then he is going to give everybody a tax cut.....BULL S#&t

This guys will say anything to the American lemmings to get elected. His agenda is a social remake of this country. Did you hear that now he believes the Constitution is seriously flawed....OK I will go get the video of the socialist saying that too!

Berg Lawsuit continues....cool

A few weeks ago I posted this video


Here is an update....if you really read it...the DNC and Obama are trying to stall.....stall for what we should ask....just give up your birth certificate. period....

Here is the update
UPDATE CLICK HERE

READ THIS POST

Palin's background..........

Newt had a few choice words for a reporter. Talk about a smack! This is funny. Scary thing is not that Palin has little experience.....it's that Obama really has less. At least she is not the front runner on the ticket.

Bad customer swervice is the worst....not cool

OK so I have 2 stories of either bad customer service or the "order prevention department"

I needed a pallet of sod for my backyard. I called the local vendor and asked them for a pallet of fescue. The women tells me that they are sold out. I was just about to hang up when I figure....hmmmm....let em ask....."when will you be getting more in?" She answers..."in an hour" AN HOUR....this women runs a sod farm in the middle of "NOWHERE" crazy,.....

then yesterday I go to Noddles and Company. I order the same dish every time. Japanese pan noodles, no mushrooms with extra broccoli. Over the past few visits I have noticed that I get about the same amount of broccoli as the person I go with. So yesterday I mention to the girl who is taking my order to make sure there is extra broccoli....since she is charging me. Of course when she brings me my noodles......4 pieces of broccoli....I am done...I go and tell her and guess what miss nose pierce says?....yeah I noticed there wasn't much in there and shrugs....she then says she will bring me out some....well thanks a lot..I have already eaten half my noodles and then I get the plain steamed broccoli as a side dish...

Great customer service is a dying art.

Did we land on the moon?.........cool????not sure

We have all heard of the conspiracy that the moon landing was fake. This along with millions of other conspiracy theories have never really interested me. Times are a changing.....maybe I should adjust the tin foil beanie I made for myself last night. Sometimes too much information searching leads you to areas that I don't want to know about....


Anyway, cruising through Obama stuff.....I came along this video. It caught my attention because of the title. The video has nothing really specifically to do with McCain, but it was riveting....also very disturbing. Is any of this stuff true?

Your comments would be appreciated!

Global Poverty Act....really...that's the priority?? not cool right now

As the wheels come further off the Obama bus and we really start to see who this guy is.....hopefully it is not too late.
Although his accomplishments in the senate are almost nil.....he has only spent less then 200 days actually at the senate.....but he did get to work on one bill that has been slowly making its way through congress.

It's the 2007 Global Poverty Act.
Click on the link and you will see the actual bill. Look whose name is #! on sponsorship.......yup you guessed it....Senator Obama.

This is the priority? The US is in war, the economy was faltering (at the time of this bill introduction) and he is worried about poverty around the globe. Not poverty in the US....?????

BTW look at the cross outs. The bill gets introduced with the United Nations Millennium group listed as the manager of this program. Oops....let's lose the title United Nations.....just call it Millennium Group.


Here is a video that kinda explains it. Glen Beck is a knucklehead...but he is funny to watch. Be aware this video is 6 months old.

If you think you're gonna get a tax cut...watch out...not cool

The other night on Marc Levin...(.crazy right wing talk show host. but very funny to listen to) He mentioned how Obama sounded just like Clinton regarding the "95% tax cut" In fact not only did not give people tax cuts he raised the taxes of the middle class. Then in the famous Clinton "truths" he said that he always said "for paying for my programs" If you do the math......there is no way that 2-4% of the population (those making over 250K) will be able to pay for a tax break for the other 95% and also pay for all the new programs this socialist wants to buy! Read this article from the LIBERAL New York Times.

Clinton Lies

Buckle up everybody.......Obama is gonna tax everybody. He is a world thinker and in my next blog I will tell you where he wants to spend all of our monies!

Redistribtion of wealth ...not cool!

This is an audio clip of Senator Obama discussing redistribution of wealth. BTW we already have redistribution of wealth in the US. Fact is 20-25% of the population pay 70-80% of all income tax.

I am not sure why the GOP is not making more of this issue.

Sunday, October 26, 2008

ok...this was a little crazy.....cool

If you read the earlier post from this morning, you will see that I posted right before I left for 9 o'clock mass. At mass the priest read a letter from Bishop Herman. It basically was my post!! He spoke to the issue of people's all consuming concern for the economy and not reminding themselves that there is A LOT on the table this election.

Anyway....here is a place you can see where the candidates are compared on social issues. If you agree with me or not....you should be informed.

Comparison Site

anyway...it was just a little "spooky" especially since I saw I am legend last night and at the end of the movie Will Smith gets a sign from God......interesting.

Abortion is not cool!

I can write a million words on this topic. As I get ready to leave for Sunday mass, I saw this video. With the ecoomy all over the news, we forget that Obama has some very radical ideas and HISTORY. View this entire video....even if you are pro choice.....are you this pro choice?


"Pro Choice" video


I am pro choice.......I choose life for all.

Friday, October 24, 2008

There is so many good videos....cool

take a look at this one....I love the political season....

Please be advised...this is rated PG13 and has many potty words in it.

Funny Cartoon.....cool!

A friend sent me this cartoon......It cracked me up!

Joe Biden speaks......thanks for the warning...cool?

Here is an audio of Biden a few days a ago.
Here is what he said:
ABC News' Matthew Jaffe Reports: Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., on Sunday guaranteed that if elected, Sen. Barack Obama., D-Ill., will be tested by an international crisis within his first six months in power and he will need supporters to stand by him as he makes tough, and possibly unpopular, decisions

."Mark my words," the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. "It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We're about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said. Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy

1-800-goog411....works and is cool

Mom...you were right goog411 is the best. Need telephone information when you are traveling? I earlier blogged about the new goog411 feature. I used it twice today. Worked like a champ.

I called 1-800-goog411. An Automated attendant asks for city and state...it then repeats your answer and asks for the business you are looking for. It then tells you it's first choice....both times it was the right place...then asks do you want more details or be connected. I tried both ways. The first time I was connected within seconds...GREAT The 2nd time I selected details and goog411 then went on to give me the number and address of the business...the connect me.....Fantastic!

It is all suppose to be free...except for the minutes used on your cell phone. There is not the $1.25 charge sprint hits you every time you use there 411. I will be watching my bill to make sure I do not see any "hidden" charges.

Iphone.....very cool!

We switched over to Iphones last week. Let me start by saying that I really have never been thrilled with cell phones......BUT....this phone is REALLY GREAT. I even have a deep dislike for Apple......But again...THIS PHONE IS GREAT.

The first thing I did was try to make a call on it....the number buttons on the screen are not the size of a pin head! Love at first site. The phone has a bunch of great features .....like
A real web browser.
A usable web browser.....yeah my treo had web access, but it was useless
EASE of USE is really a plus...

the list goes on.

They are expensive, but I think they are worth the extra dollars. If you use your phone like my partner and I do, the productivity gains will pay for the phones within a month.

Obama's response...he is just not as funny...cool

Here is the Obama roast of McCain....he is just not that funny.


McCain at the Alfred E Smith Dinner...cool?

This dinner was heldf last week. Arn't they all a little too close.

And BTW...Love to see a PRIEST/BISHOP sitting and yucking it up with a pro choice candidate.

My opinion....they are all a little too close. Sorry about the jumk at the end of the video.

Obama wants to spread it around....not cool

Here is a story fropm yahoo news....

Last Sunday as Obama walked through Wurzelbacher's Holland, Ohio, neighborhood, Wurzelbacher asked him whether his plan to increase taxes on those earning more than $250,000 a year would impede his ability to buy the plumbing company where he works. Obama replied that those making over $250,000 would be taxed more but that money would be returned to the middle-class through tax cuts. "I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody," Obama said.


this is the famous Joe the Plumber!!

Biden and counting....funny....not cool

My buddy Pete sent me this Youtube link. It's short and funny!!

The last debate....cool

I watched the debate last night and enjoyed McCain's feisty attitude,

Here are a couple of thoughts:

Obama did not look great, he looked tired.
McCain looked good for a guy who is 72. He was engaged and looked like a an anxious puppy.
McCain had some great lines...my favorite was:
I am not George Bush. Senator Obama, if you wanted to run against George bush you should of run 4 years ago. (this quote is paraphrased)
I like it when they take off the gloves...
Joe Biden Knocks
the eloquent speaking knocks
the no drilling dig



McCain I believe won this round....did he win enough to get more votes...not enough to win this thing in my opinion.

I think we McCain will lose this race. I really don't think most people understand his background and how much harm this socialist can cause.

It will be an interesting couple of weeks.

Mom is on her Tech stuff....so cool

Mom- you are such a geek! I got this link from my mom today for Google 411

It allows you to call 411 from your cell phone and not get charged that crazy $1 fee. This is one of my partners per peeves. So to all my readers, check it out and please post your feedback.

Kinda cool to post about technology instead of the crazy politics.

Cool Math Problem

I read The Drunkard's Walk and came away with this really cool math problem.

Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors: Behind one door is a car; behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which has a goat. He then says to you, "Do you want to pick door No. 2?" Is it to your advantage to switch your choice?

Here is the answer......don't be so quick to answer...think about it!

Enjoy!
BTW Chris was the only person I know that not only got the right answer.....but understood why!

The Presidential Poll is cool!

Thanks for the 9 people who have voted so far in the poll on the right side of the blog. Yes there are 10 votes....I voted! Right now our poll does not look like what the national polls bear out. We are 60% McCain where as in the national polls Obama has a slight lead.

NOW...no double voting....we are on scout's honor...I wish Acorn was!!

As the election draws near, I will slowly expose my desires in a new President. Unfortunately, I do not believe I will get what I want either way. As I have stated many times, Obama is very scary....and by elimination leaves me McCain...the tallest midget.

CableGuy's desires....politically that is!!

Limited Role Government.
They should be involved in the following:
National Security and armed forces
Infrastructure
including the roads, National parks and electrical grid to name a few
Space Exploration
Education..State and Local Gvt only
Food safety

There are a few more....but they are all about a national focus....

What I would like for GVT to get out of....social services. They are no longer a short term safety net...they are a cluster screw up and does not promote self reliance.

Enough on one topic....

Birthday Breakfast.....cool

One of the things I use to do is bring the birthday girl or boy to breakfast on their birthday. It usually was just the two of us. Shelby of course had asked early last month if we would have our breakfast...and also go to 7am mass....just the two of us. I said OK. Next thing I know we have one of her buddies over for the weekend and the breakfast has expanded to EVERYBODY!

I guess having a birthday on a Sunday allows for all the sleepyheads....yes you Jessica....to be up and at ’em for a freebie!

Shelby wanted to go to Bob Evans but acquiesced when she found out that the crew was going and that The Original Pancake Houses serves Gluten Free Pancakes.

It was a great morning. Having all the kids around the table laughing and eating...and eating....and eating...we even had leftovers. Although just the two of us would of saved me at least $60 .....the breakfast was ....priceless.

Happy Birthday Shelby!

Well my third became a teenager yesterday. Between the Birthday breakfast, soccer games, CAKE eating and church....there was no time to blog.

My sister did a nice job of blogging a birthday wish... check it out

http://thebigmove-crownridge.blogspot.com/2008/10/shelby-birthday-wishes.html

Shelby, Shelb, Shelbster, Shelby Lou, Mel.......who's mel, Melster, Shelby Melby, this kid has more nicknames then Carter has pills.....BTW does carters still make pills?

You are the best....Moo Moo!

Love you...see you at lunch today!

Christmas shopping early.....not cool...but needed

The financial crisis is all about credit....the stock market is what everybody is talking about....but the economists are all talking cash flow.  Remember the phrase...Cash is King.  The real issue uis commercial paper and credit lines that companies use to pay their everyday bills....inventory, payroll.  I heard a story last week that stated that Marriott borrows 35 million dollars a day to run their business.  They are a solid company....but they are having issues getting the commercial lenders to give them their daily dose.

So what does this have to do with Christmas shopping?  Inventories will be low is my guess.  Without a credit line or other types of borrowing, companies both large and small will not be able to bring in a lot of inventory and then wait for sales.  The vendors will want their monies when the inventory is delivered.

This whole credit issue s a vicious circle.  No loans for business....no inventory...no way o get sales....slow business....layoffs.....This will get worse before it gets better.  I think with the shopping season coming right at the credit crunch time....a shopping season whereas many retailers make their whole year in the 4th quarter....scary! 

So shop early or you will be giving gift cards!

Register and vote the same day....not cool

There is a new wave of laws regarding voting running a muck. (running a muck....is that spelled right?) and what is a muck anyway!

Ohio has done it for the past month and now Illinois is doing it for the next two weeks. They are allowing voters to register and vote at the same time before election day. This is a recipe for corruption on both sides.

Let's say I go down to the homeless shelter and feed these rascals and then put them on a bus and get them to not only register but to vote for me...what's the harm...it's being done by Obama in Ohio.

Or let's say I go to a retirement home....I treat the old bittys to a great lunch and then shuttle them (see the transportation difference) over to the register's office to register and vote....the whole way playing patriotic war songs........Don't think McCain not doing this


Either way....it's bad news. If only to truly validate voters,,,,never mind separating the vote actually gets people to think for themselves before they go into the booth....needs to be part of the voting process.

If you want to set up buses or shuttles ...ok....but lets not just buy votes.

I hate to say I told you so.......but....not cool

My biggest concern with the 700 Billion dollar "rescue...bail out" was the amount of control we were giving to the Secretary of the Treasury. This guy would have an open checkbook to do as he pleases....as long as he thinks its good for the economy.

I started to try to stomach this thing...the politicians spun it that we were really not spending the dollars on an item but rather an investment. That in fact the GVT was buying these financial instruments on the cheap due to the fact the businesses that owned them had no cash. Furthermore....that the US would most likely make money on these instruments.

So the idiots sign up for the bill....they suck some of the nation into thinking this is ok.

This morning the same old same old starts. Treasury now thinks that with this money they should be buying stock in financial institutions to give investors confidence. This is a bad thing....
Warning Wil Robinson....danger danger...... Now we have some political infighting as to whether the Secretary can do this under the bill.....sorry sad sacks...the horse is out of the barn and this guy is riding alone and laughing at you.

One issue....what if the gvt buys stock in a financial firm. Now they must by a lot in order to have any impact....OH....now they become a big enough shareholder to have a seat on the board....this is a mess waiting to happen.....Get Government out of the public sector and let the chips fall where they fall.

Good Article about McCains MISTAKE....cool

This is a good article on how John McCain became a liberal last night.

Click here to read it.

Enjoy

Another great email....cool

A broker sent me over this email.

Funny...but true and scary.!!

Bar Stool Economics

Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100.

If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:>

The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
The fifth would pay $1.
The sixth would pay $3.
The seventh would pay $7.
The eighth would pay $12.
The ninth would pay $18.
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59

So, that's what they decided to do. The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve. "Since you are all such good customers," he said, "I'm going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20." Drinks for the ten now cost just $80

The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes so the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six men - the paying customers? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his 'fair share?'

They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer. So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man's bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay.

And so: The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings).
The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33%savings).
The seventh now pay $5 instead of $7 (28%savings).
The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings).
The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings).
The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings).

Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings. "I only got a dollar out of the $20,"declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man," but he got $10!" "Yeah, that's right," exclaimed the fifth man. "I only saved a dollar, too. It's unfair that he got ten times more than I!" "That's true!!" shouted the seventh man. "Why should he get $10 back when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks!" "Wait a minute," yelled the first four men in unison. "We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits the poor! " The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.

The next night the tenth man didn't show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill!

And that, ladies and gentlemen, journalists and college professors, is how our tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.

Renegotiating mortgages McCain...NOT COOL!

If McCain and all the rest of the politicians think that main street was mad about bailing out Wall Street....they are going to go ballistic when they find out that McCain is leading the charge in buying up all those "bad mortgages" and renegotiating with banks to not only lower interest rates for lenders...but to reduce the principal.

IS HE NUTS?

He must of taken an Obama pill.

I have now heard Palin and MCcain blame the big bad mortgage companies for the whole mess....what about the idiots that spent what they did not have and could not afford. How about some self restraint....and if you don't have it, then belly up to the bar and take responsibility for your own mistakes. Yes there are devious lenders, yes there crisis situations...but let's not let the tail wag the dog on this issue....I would guess the biggest issue is the jones issue.....keeping up with them that is....and buying stuff you can not afford.

BTW for those of you who have been sitting on the sidelines watching the market for the past 12 months...I think it's time to start to get back in the pool! There are a lot of really good stocks with great dividend yield that are cheap. Then again......could tank another 500 today!

Tuesday, October 7, 2008

Pete's Poll.....cool!!!!!!

I have about 15-20 people who stop by this site everyday. I thought since I have been on the soapbox for the past week, that I would poll you guys about who you will vote for. On the right side you can see the poll question.

Go ahead and vote......no one can tell who votes....so no one will know!

A trillion dollars in spending...not cool

Tonight Nashville hosts the 2nd Presidential debate. In my humble opinion, McCain needs to focus on the trillion dollars of new spending that he says Obama is planning to spend. I have heard McCain say this numerous times. Is it true? I have never heard Obama disagree with this statement,

If it is true....get to it McCain. Remember from another election....."it's the economy stupid" # 1 concern for the American people is the economy. Most people do not want the government to spend more....most people believe the government is full of waste...remember the $100 hammer!!?

He needs to get to the details of what Obama wants to spend this on.....how it HAS TO impact taxes....not just personal taxes....but small business taxes....small business, where most Americans work!

Stop with the "can't trust this guy" mud slinging....get into the facts that this guy is socialist and thinks government run programs are the solution.

Email I received funny...but not so cool

My buddy Gene sent me this email today. It is so scary....Funny and sad altogether.


How many zeros in a billion?

This is too true to be funny.
The next time you hear a politician use the
word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about
whether you want the 'politicians' spending
YOUR tax money.

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,
but one advertising agency did a good job of
putting that figure into some perspective in
one of it's releases.

A. A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
B. A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
C. A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.
D. A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
E. A billion dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes, at the rate our government is spending it.

While this thought is still fresh in our brain...
let's take a look at New Orleans ...
It's amazing what you can learn with some simple division.
Louisiana Senator,
Mary Landrieu (D)
is presently asking Congress for
250 BILLION DOLLARS
to rebuild New Orleans . Interesting number...
what does it mean?
A. Well... if you are one of the 484,674 residents of New Orleans (every man, woman, and child)
you each get $516,528.
B. Or... if you have one of the 188,251 homes in New Orleans , your home gets $1,329,787.
C. Or... if you are a family of four... your family gets $2,066,012.

Washington , D. C
HELLO!
Are all your calculators broken??

Bail Out Bill,,,,and PORK...not cool

I am hearing of a lot of piggies out there on this bill. This link will bring you to the full text of the bill.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/28/bailout-legislation-full_n_130063.html

After I read it, I will be summarizing the pork that the pigs in Washington thought was necessary to stick in the bill.

Disgusting....wait till you read this stuff.

Last Biden issue

My third point is Joe's opinion on mans hand in climate change.

He stated not once ...but let me repeat......(his favorite line in the debate) twice...that all ...THAT ALL climate change issues are man made.

This guy makes Al Gore look like a littering, gas guzzling maniac!

I am not sure how much man has to do with global warming and climate change. Of course we do some damage....we are here. But the scientist cannot even agree on how much. Biden stuck his neck out on this and the other two issues....I hope the talking heads on the radio cut it off!

#2 Biden Issue

The number two thing that scared the bejesus out of me is the mortgage conversation. Biden went on to say that Judges should not only be able to help those people who overspent on their homes by reducing their interest rates....but to be able to reduce the principal of the the distressed loan.

JOE....Are you kidding me?

Two issues Joe......If I am a bank and this nonsense is allowed...I am raising interest rates...A LOT...why? The risk of judges not only reducing my interest rate but now making me take a hit on the loan principal.

2nd....talk about ruining a neighborhood. So my neighbor makes a financial mess by borrowing to buy things they can't afford. The Joe and the boys drop his principal by 100 grand....They just devalued my house. My neighbor can now sell his home for less then he paid and not have any financial issue....thanks again Joe.

Debaste were cool #1 remark

I watched the debates last night. I will soak and listen some blues tonight....sorry Joe B.

Lots of thoughts on the debates.

1st Palin did a good job. She stayed to her 6 talking points no matter the question.

Biden also did a good job....no major Gaffes....that his party will have to bail out.

He however said three things that I thought were critical to understanding how Joe and Obama are so close to socialism....it's scary.

The first point was Joe's' comments about Distribution of wealth. I am paraphrasing.....I am tired of hearing distribution of wealth called distribution of wealth....it's just fairness

ARE YOU KIDDING ME....as Obama loves to say....you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig.

Wake up Biden...our tax system, our college tuition assistance, and most other revenue collecting and distribution systems in the US are just that WEALTH DISTRIBUTION.

Palin....stick to your lines.......would be cool

There is no way that a person who has never needed to...or ever has had the chance to work around....international politics is going to beat up; on a guy that has been in the senate 30+ years. Even by osmosis, which I am sure Biden has done, this guy just knows more about foreign policy. Palin needs to not challenge the guy on this issue. I read an article yesterday written by an independent that debated Palin. He said she is the best at the "no" answer. She takes her 40 seconds and says a lot of puffy stuff...relates it to her life and then ends....with no real answer given. I will be surprised if she does that on issues that she is well versed in....lets say energy. It's the best strategy in areas that she is weak.

Biden will gaffe himself, he can't help it. He will also pounce on Palin like a cougar on a chicken. That will be his mistake....she will be sweet as pie....he will look like the jerk that he is!

BTW, she has about as much foreign policy experience as Obama.

Should I watch the debate tomorrow or go over to Harrahs and see Joe Bonamassa

Tough decision. I did want to watch the debate live, that way I could form my own opinion before I heard all the talking points from the press. This is the first I have seen Bonamassa tour in St Louis so I think I may scoot over for this rare appearance.
So who the hell is Joe Bonamassa?

He is a blues guitarist.....not just any blues guitarist but one that is considered to be one of the best...take a listen
