I was really trying to stay out of this, but I am weak and I saw this quote
Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

This statement that has been pushed by FOX Cartoon News for months is a bald-faced lie.wintergreen48 wrote:At least he never bought a million dollar house with the help of a convicted felon...
Tony Rezko bought a piece of property that was next door to the house that Barack and Michelle had originally bought. The Obamas later bought that next-door property, but as soon asthey realized that the guy was a sleazebag, they sold their properties and moved. Rezko had nothing to do with the house.
It's amazing what you can learn when you do your own research rather than having Sean Hannity do it for you.

OK, Senator Obama, your answer to this question can win or lose my vote:(CHESTER, Va.) The Obama campaign perked up yesterday when it learned that John McCain admitted in an interview with Politico that he was unsure of the number of homes he owns. "I think - I'll have my staff get to you," McCain said.
Those nine little words sprung the Obama campaign into frenzy. Less than 24 hours later, it released a national TV ad on cable, mobilized surrogates, and launched events in battleground states with titles such as “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire: McCain Edition.:"

Where the ATA is the most important lifeline and saved until last, but always used just after the 50/50.
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

Really? You yourself went down to the county courthouse, reviewed all the title and deed transactions? You traced all the money throught the bank transactions yourself?NellyLunatic1980 wrote: It's amazing what you can learn when you do your own research rather than having Sean Hannity do it for you.
I apologize. All this time I was selling you short.

THIS is too funny. At least his wife pronounces her name like most "Cindy"s do, so he doesn't have to take the same crap Kerry did for the Rich Wife Issue....trevor_macfee wrote:
But . . . I find this stuff about McCain too funny. From this post, I got a picture him being led from house to house by Cindy, blindfolded so he doesn't know where or whose house he's in. Once he's in the house, he asks, not thinking, "So where are we?" As she starts to answer, he runs out of the room, screaming, "DON'T TELL ME! DON'T TELL ME!"
Later, as they entertain, a guest asks Cindy, "So, when did you buy this place." And John covers his ears and starts to hum a little tune.
Poor man.

I don't blame anyone for not wanting to be known as Terry Kerry.

I'm old, bit, please pray tell what branch of the service you were in that would give you such an insight into how an admiral's son would have been treated by his peers. Now remember that you have to go back 55 or 60 years to when JMC was a adolescent. You don't think he was born on third base? You don't have a frigging clue how it was. Or anything else as far as that goes, my friend.You, my friend, are an being an idot. (sic/sick)
