President Elect Barack Obama or PEBO for short...WASHINGTON – Congress has officially declared Barack Obama the next President of the United States after tallying electoral college votes in a centuries old tradition.
The House and Senate met in joint session to hear their colleagues read off the electoral votes from the 50 states and the District of Columbia. The outcome, never in doubt, was 365 votes for Obama and Vice President-elect Joe Biden, and 173 votes for John McCain and his running mate, Sarah Palin.
Both Democrats and Republicans gave a standing ovation as Vice President Dick Cheney, in his role as president of the Senate, announced the vote count for Obama

Does he need a Minister of Finance or Treasury Secretary, or whatever you Yanks call it? I am experienced in dealing with large sums of money and I am authorized to transfer them to the US of A.
How dare they!

If you're going to make up childish acronym/nicknames to call him, wouldn't it be safer to include his middle name that carries the oh-so-subtle implication that he's a Muslim mole whose mission is to destroy us?

And the quote is right on the top so you don't have to scroll through hell and back. I hate it when I'm posting under a different id and have to deal with finding quotes and replies and having to look for options instead of just clicking on somebody's name.minimetoo26 wrote:It's easier to delete your cookies and search the memberlist in HK, you know....littlebeast13 wrote:WheresFanny wrote: It's much easier if you use the HK interface.

Did you guys ever consider deleting some of the previously quoted posts so you don't post something that has 5,000 nested quotes in it?
