This is the pic which accompanies that artical. I think it was a foot in mouth thing, but it's not that important in either case.

...but Biden said it was $150 K. But then again, Obama said $42k not too long ago. We'll see what the actual numbers are I guess. I have been watching TV and reading several newspapers and periodicals and I have not seen anything but the 250K bracket. Please enrich us with the source you are quoting. Oh, and quoting something Palin claims Obama said is NOT an Obama quote nor does it reflect anything on the Obama platform. It is just another lie. What, you don't read the Drudge report? Here ya go. THAT LEFT WING DEMOCRAT RAG THE NY POST LINK

People cut and paste all kinds of shit they don't write, it's still funny. Here's one... link

This sounds bad. Is your ticker OK?

LOL, thanks for the laugh Lars!

Haha! Nice find. Someone was working overtime to piece that one together STP! Classic. Love the interviewer.

Many social programs, like welefare, are one way to toss your money down the toilet. (Not all, some, like early childhood education are great investments) On occasion it does do good and eases the conscious as well. In the old days you could choose who you thought was worthy. Now the government tells you who they think that is, then they demand your money and toss it over there for you. I think that the politicians thought tossing the money into Iraq was an investment. One I opposed when they first did it, but now think we need to work out and stay until we can get out with at least one asscheek. I've been swimming upsteam on that one the entire time as public opinion % shifted from overwhelmingly positive wholehearted public support to derision and anger. BTW, not necessarily an investment that worked out good - but they perceived it as an investment when they went in. So fucking stupid and wasteful.

Like Matt here. People like that. sure.

Anyone besides me? Might be the last chance to tear out some serious ligaments and tendons before the winter rot sets in:-) Bueller? B..u..e..l..l...e......r? anyone see this thread has 122,000+ page views? Some of you need to turn off the computer and get out more:-) Tsk tsk!

that looks photoshopped. Condi was on the Chevron BOD though. Here's the ship before the name change. Edited to add a better pic. Don't think I'm going all Al Gore here either. Gore was worse that any of these folks, his largest holding to this day is an oil company which his traitorous father, Al Gore Senior -may he rot in hell- SPIT- got because he sold his ass to a Soviet Spy named Armand Hammer and Occidental Petroleum. Bold new world my ass. And some of you somabitches want to de arm the only honest people in this fucked up equation, plain US citizens. Lets give the greedy power hungry politician more power and take it away from the people. Sure. That makes sense: NOT! Maybe it won't matter, but you don't know that it will or won't.

That works Sobo! No small coinkidink that Secretary of State Condoleza Rice took the Chevron board of directors place vacated by former Reagan Sec of state George Schultz? Furthermore, notably, the Taliban had denied Chevron and a consortium to install a pipeline across a corner of Asscrackistan? Guess what pipeline got put in immediately after the US attack has (semi) secured that country? No blood for oil my ass. Here's some links to get you up to speed on that. Link Link Edited to add a pic as a picture is worth a 1000 words:-) Next, should we discuss Saddam trying to denote oil for Euros and not dollars: GASP?

replace the phrase "oil companies" for "George Senior" and I might agree with you:-)

You come off as quite the prick sometimes Pat. Like I told Bob yesterday, if you have to start personal attacks and name calling to make your point (and Scott said nothing about you personally), then it only proves what a weak-assed point you had to begin with.

s'ok, just as funny the 2nd time around E!

Then it's like an Anti-Reagan revolution I suppose. BTW Trash, I've read all his positions. He's got great ideas coming out his ears, yet somehow we, the reader, are expected to suppose and believe that all the money will rain down like manna from heaven for all these goodies and abundance we will receive from the Gobment. At least Hillary was truthful and upfront in spelling out exactly where the money for the health care plan as to come from. Uhhh, sure, and I have a bridge I'll sell ya too. Hope and change, it's the new religion (ie, unfounded on fact belief system) for folks like yourself.

I brought my shoes (and harness) to work today thinking I might be able to run up to the butte and get a bouldering pump apre work. Anyone going to be on the cliffs doing laps or need a spotter? Let me know. Today or Thus may be the last good outside day. I might be good for the same thing Thus. Gets dark like @ 6:30, so I was wanting to be on rock by 5 or so.

Exactly, however, those things come with a long list of other baggage as well which normal folks often have troubles with. I have hopes that with a reduced military spending list Obama can get our economy back on track and gov't spending under control.....but it's an unfounded hope. I suspect the dems will exchange military spending for domestic social program spending and we will continue to sink as a country from the burden of big government. Whether he gets a 2nd term, or a "new Reagan" appears and takes it away from the dems, will depend on that very thing IMO. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

flatirons (Boulder) from the other side isn't it?

Funny (and scary stuff) stuff. Check this out!

This one looks to be no more than 2 asswipes sitting around TALKIN' about doing it. Like the uber boring movie "My dinner with Andre", except stupider and meaner. News link "By Pete Williams and Jim Popkin, NBC News Senior federal officials tell NBC News that the Feds are skeptical about whether there ever was a well-conceived plan to attack Sen. Barack Obama by two alleged neo-Nazi extremists in Tennessee. The officials say that there is no evidence at this early stage of the investigation that the two men, Daniel Cowart and Paul Schlesselman, had ever taken the plan beyond the talking stage." I envision 2 Deliverance style, corn-fed A-holes sitting around a bottle of Jack Daniels bragging and talkin'.....Glad they're locking them up.

I don't care how you vote, this is funny. Mike Lake, who use to live around here but now inhabits Berkley, put it on over on Supertopo to share after picking it up from someplace. "Dear Red States: We've decided we're leaving. We intend to form our own country, and we're taking all the Blue States with us. In case you aren't aware, that includes California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and all the Northeast. We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation, and especially to the people of the new country the United States of Enlightenment. To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states. We get stem cell research and the best beaches. We get the Statue of Liberty. You get Dollywood. We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom. We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss. We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get Alabama. We get two-thirds of the tax revenue, you get to make the red states pay their fair share. Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower than the Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families. You get a bunch of single moms. Please be aware that we will be pro-choice and anti-war, and we're going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at once. If you need people to fight, ask your evangelicals. They have kids they're apparently willing to send to their deaths for no purpose, and they don't care if you don't show pictures of their children's caskets coming home. We do wish you success in Iraq , and hope that the WMDs turn up, but we're not willing to spend our resources in Bush's Quagmire. With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80 percent of the country's fresh water, more than 90 percent of the pineapple and lettuce, 92 percent of the nation's fresh fruit, 95 percent of America's quality wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners) 90 percent of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools plus Berkeley, Stanford , Cal Tech and MIT. With the Red States, on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88 percent of all obese Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92 percent of all U.S. mosquitoes, nearly 100 percent of the tornadoes, 90 percent of the hurricanes, 99 percent of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100 percent of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia. We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you. Additionally, 38 percent of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62 percent believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44 percent say that evolution is only a theory, 53 percent that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and 61 percent of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals then we lefties. Finally, we're taking the good pot, too. You can have that dirt weed they grow in Mexico Peace out, Blue States "

Or a Squeeky Frome or crazy Hinkley doing it wither, but there ya are?

hmmm, my wife isn't white, but she's generally an anti-socialist Obama supporter married to a gun owning libertarian believer - pretty much. (My 2 priorities: balance the budget and get gov't off my ass) Kill whitey....oh, shit, wait, that's me. Hey, my sons first day visiting the town where his college is, there's a parade he's at. Walking down the street behind him he hears a local yell "White Power". He said he turned to look but no one wanted to wave or even make eye contact, let alone claim such a statement. Nice to have new experiences.

Well, as long as no one asks me to screw a pig then..... Seriously Bob, in my opinion, it weakens a very strong and honest post to end it that way. It will lead to insults back in return, and your points, as spot on the money as they are, will not be read or addressed. Take care all!

Loved your post, right on the money, all the way till the last line Bob. Then you lost me, and degraded both your point and yourself. Next time, if you want to shave a few words, just wave your hand and say in bold "I'M AN ASSHOLE". But it was right on the money other than that last line. If you have to resort to name calling, it means you feel you have a weak case. Take care all
