    John, I'm not sure where you get your facts about who won the debate between Vice President Biden and Fox Personality Palin.

    I just did a Google search and found the following story.



    ****Instant polls taken at the end of the event by television channels suggested that despite Mrs Palin managing a more measured performance than many had anticipated, voters were more impressed with Mr Biden.

    A poll by CNN and Opinion Research found 51 per cent thought Mr Biden had performed best, with Mrs Palin taking 36 per cent of respondents.

    'Folksy' Palin in spotlight A survey of uncommitted voters for CBS found the split even more pronounced, with Mr Biden on 46, Mrs Palin on 21 and a relatively high proportion stating that neither had impressed or that they could not decide.

    When the uncommitted voters were pressed, 18 per cent said they would vote for Barack Obama and Mr Biden following the debate, with only 10 per cent ready to line up for John McCain and Sarah Palin.

    Another instant poll done by Fox News, which did not allow for such fence-sitting, had the divide between the two candidates at 61 per cent for Mr Biden and 39 per cent for Mrs Palin. ****

    I hope you notice that a poll done by FOX news found that Biden won by 61%. Please get your facts right about this stuff. She isn't that bright and she isn't that well liked by the majority of Americans.

    It was her, Sarah Palin that gave us Obama as President. McCain blew it John. And now we all have to pay for his mistakes.

    John, this is why I have such a big problem with you calling at least 70% of South American immigrants lazy or dumb. Your facts are flawed on this subject.

    The circle you run in are twits because they let a liberial media make their minds up for them instead of looking at it in a logical manor.

    Here you need to take a look at the facts again.

    Fact: She beat Biden in their debate (even MSNBC had to call it a tie, for god sake)

    Fact: Not a big deal that is true.

    Fact: Biden was Obamas pick.

    Fact: So what does that say about Obama's ability to make good choices.

    Fact: Palin had a 76% approval in her state.

    Fact: That was the highest approval rating of all the states governors when McCain made his pick.

    Fact: That has to mean she was doing ALOT right in running her state.

    Fact: She had more executive experience then all three of them combined.

    Fact: Not since the 60s has there been a senator elected as a president.

    Fact: Never had we had at least one person on the ticket without executive experience.

    Fact: McCains choice was better by far then Obamas pick.

    Fact: So that point, has no logic behind it.

    Here if McCain would have said this in the debate with Obama would you or any non liberial still vote for him.

    "I dont think so I am not McCain. I tend to call people out reguardless of how bad it makes them look. For instance I would have asked a simple question: So if you said you never heard any of Rev. Rights racist remarks then why in your book did you speak the very same words, "White folks greed runs a world in need", Then I would have said, isn't that racist or do you think that is true that white folks are greedy. Then after Obama did his normal: Ha, da, hum, ha, da, hum, I, I, I, well, da, humm. Hell I would have then asked him what did he mean when he wrote: "In college I search out all the radicals and marxist I could find." Then I would have said, is that what you think most Americans are. At that point Obamas brain would have exploded and that would have been the end of the debate."

    Point of fact that proved Obama:

    A) lied when he said he never heard Rev. Wright say any racist remarks.

    B) Obama is a racist to agree with that so much that he used it in his book.

    C) obama is a radical and believes in the Marxist teachings.

    Now while those things were not brought up in a debate dont you think if the MSM was fare they would have brought it up. Then again everyone knows the MSM is hugely bias to the left and maybe they should have done a little more research into who they voted for to run the country they are going to live in.

    DONT YOU THINK THAT TO BE A WISE THING.

    How do you think I know all this BEFORE Obama got elected and told you all just who he was before you all saw it, AFTER HE BECAME PRESIDENT.

    P.S. And hey I am a dumby who cant spell so want does that make you or your friends if you did not see it before this dummy.

    Havakasha, that is just incredible! We are SO DAMN LUCKY to not have her as our President. And I will always say it that way because, whomever is Vice President can easily become President at the worst possible moments of our lives. She just was never fit to run a state, let alone a country.

    I'm not saying that President Obama is any great guy by the way. But, I truly think that if Palin was President, we would be in a depression rather than a recession.

    I'm not saying she is dumb or lazy like John thinks of South Americans. I'm just saying that she makes a better entertainer than she does a member of government.

    No beach this year. I'm experiencing fiscal responsibilty right now. Though, after not being there for 2 years, I'm ready.

    My wife grew up Union - very blue collar.

    NO BEACH! Yuk! I'll go jump in the ocean for you first thing in the morning...LOL

    We'll see you down here sometime, some year, I'm sure.

    Here's a union story for you.

    My wife has a Masters Degree in Education and has worked in private schools for over 30 years. She's a great teacher! But, she's never made enough money for even a single person to live on and get ahead in the world. Her best year in private schools has been 28K in a twelve month school, and that is without ANY benefits.

    I have five kids. Three of them teachers. They all teach in Unionized Public Schools. Starting pay for each of them was more than mom ever made. I think about 35 to 40K to start and fantastic benefits.

    The moral of the story is that those kids joined a union and live a better life than mom could.

    Unions are not all bad! They are not all Socialists. They make it so people can have jobs that pay them a living wage.

    I know there is a lot of abuse of the system in unionized jobs. But, there are also a lot of people that without a union could not make a living wage.

    By the way, they all are Republicans and usually vote that way. And to top it off, one of them married a kid from Ecuador in South America of all places, and he's a friggin Republican. He laughs his ass off as he reads along with this thread.

    I just did a Google search and found this story from December 22, 1998.

    ***Latest opinion polls show that, post impeachment, Clinton's approval rating has jumped ten per cent to an all-time high 73 per cent, beating Ronald Reagan's record at the height of his popularity. The same CNN-Gallup Poll shows a precipitous drop in popular perception of the Republicans. Approval rating for the party has fallen from 57 per cent to 31 per cent with a corresponding increase in ratings for the Democratic party.***

    Once again, my point is that opinion polls don't make a person a good President. Or do they? You tell me John. Because Clinton had great numbers, do you think he was a great President? It seems like some sort of a double standard to me.
    First of all in general have you ever heard me say any different (yes I disagree with certain polocies he had). But I NEVER SAID HE WASN"T INTELLIGENT, he knew what he had to do after the 94 elections (move to the center). You need to go back to the post I made inwhich I said this democrat party is not the same one as it was in the 70s, 80s, or even the *90s*.

    You also prove my point would you call Clinton an idiot. He is a cheater and guilty of perjury and I think he should have had to pay the same consequences for that crime as anyone else but not an idiot. That also gos for anyone else to include Reagan or Bush if they would have lied in front of a judge. I also think Richard Nixon, and Hitler were intelligent men, but neither got what they deserved as punishment.

    Here are some other ratings from the last 50 years.

    I'm leaving now, go find liberal Lloyd.

    When was the last time you or any of your friends ran a state or the equivalent like a company with thousands of employees?

    When was the last time anyone did a documentary on the ten greatest women in the last 50 years and had any of them or their wifes in it (that was before she was even picked to be McCain's running mate)?

    I am not the dumbass calling someone that obviously has more credentials then me or any of my friends a "twit". That's a [B]FACT[B] HA fing HA.

    Just the facts, you dumbass.

    It's very hard to continue this conversation if you're going to be bending my words. I don't mind being quoted, but you're saying that I said things that I NEVER said or implied for that matter.

    Being rich is not a negative in my book. I'm almost there. In a lot of people's mind, I got rich years and years ago. There is nothing wrong with having a ton of money. And there is nothing wrong with Palin having a ton of money. I say good for her. It doesn't make me want her for President and that's why me and a lot of other people couldn't vote for McCain.

    The point to that is Obama was also rich before he ran so what was his logic behind running then. You were saying Palin is now rich, well so was Obama! That is not putting words in your mouth that is just telling it like it is.

    I believe Palin would only run to make sure we get our country back to what it used to be.

    Thats because you got sucked in by the left wing media.

    Point of fact did you ever hear the things I just told you. If so and they did not scare the hell out of you then I dont know what to say.

    Would you vote for a racist?

    Would you vote for a person that consistantly lied?

    Would you vote for someone that said he searched out the MOST RADICAL MARXIST people he could find in college?

    If those things alone did not scare the hell out of you to vote for ANYONE else I dont know what would have.

    The point is if you think Palin is stupid then you obviously never heard the stupid dumbassed shit Obama said when he first started to run back in 2007. Because you watched and read the left wing media.

    John you need to get used to the fact that the world's temperature is getting warmer. You hear from the NASA SCIENTISTS that that is so and yet you continue to be in denial about the facts.

    Can you show me where the the last 6 months temperatures have gotten colder? Please show me the proof. Come on show me you know more than the NASA scientists.


    I have shown you several times already that THEY (NASA/NOAA), yes THEY (NASA/NOAA) have had to correct their own data SEVERAL TIMES because they were found to be WRONG on it. Now who found them to be falsifing data Yes the skepics and if they did not call them out on it, it would still be used by you as a matter of fact it is still being used by you as fact.

    THAT IS FACT NOT CONJECTURE NASA ADMITTED TO IT. DO YOU GET IT NASA ADMITTED TO IT.


    Now you have been saying the earth has been getting warmer for the last 10 years. I showed you the graph Joe Bastardi shows here again in this clip debating "man made global warming" with Bill Nye (by the way for the rest of you, watch this clip of the debate and then see which side you fall on). Now if you watch closely even Bill Nye does not suggest that the earth was not getting cooler in the graph, just that the sample was to small and he should have gone back further. Even your own guy Phil Jones, now says there has been no statisical warming since 1995. Your own people are saying it Havasucker and you still dont get it are you really that thick.

    http://rawstory.com/rs/2010/0331/pos...t-debt-burden/


    Boy you must have had to search long and hard for that one, now why dont we get back to some reality.


    "A new report out by Forbes — aptly called “The Global Debt Bomb” — reveals that the five states roiling in the most debt are all so-called “blue” states. The top five are: Illinois, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and California.

    And among the five most fiscally sound are three predominantly “red” states (Utah, Nebraska, Texas) and two more politically mixed states (New Hampshire and Virginia)."

    Humm no mention of Alaska in those top five worst off.

    "Forbes’ methodology included:

    unfunded pension liabilities, changes in tax revenue, credit ratings, debt as a percentage of Gross State Product, debt per capita, growth expectations for employment and the state economy, net migrations and a “moocher ratio” that compares government employees, pension burdens and Medicaid enrollees to private-sector employment."


    http://blogs.alternet.org/speakeasy/...et_blogs_video


    Hummm, maybe because when broken down to a per person ratio Alaskans debt is 9,000 per person and in 2008 they each got over 3,200 from oil royalties. Yes something tells me if we look at CA. debt per person we will find it is much higher and they dont get sqwat.

    Hummm, I also seem to recall Ca. calling for a bail out to just keep from going bankrupt. Ho I also dont ever remember Alaska giving people I.O.U.s instead of the money they owe the people back on their taxes. No unlike Ca, and NY., and coming to a state near you, Il., and CT., Alaska's checks are still good.

    P.S. I left off NJ because they have a chance with Cristy telling them, NO MORE.

    NO MORE; Putting in 160,000 dollars into retirement and getting back 2.3 million.

    NO MORE; Retiring at 50 with full benefits of over a 100,000 dollars in many cases (Once again after only putting in 160,000 dollars).

    NO MORE; Letting the states tax payers foot the whole bill for your health. care.

    Plain and simple, NO MORE!
