  1. I'm a little flummoxed over this 45k no taxes thing. Most years I make about that much, and I definitely pay taxes.

     

    Yup. I wondered about that too. Could this be another distortion used for political argument?

     

    Yep, that looks about right. I make more than that, but the amount over 40K is going into my 201k. I don't know why FW and others think people in the lower middle tax brackets don't pay taxes, because we definitely do.

  2. No, because there's this thing called the "American Dream". Those rednecks think they will be rich someday.....

     

    While you sophisticated urbanites mire yourselves in self pity because you have no ambition and are too busy blaming other people on your own shortcommings.

    You haven't met Marylou.

    Typical akhl research.

     

    Yes I have. (Typical Insect research)

     

    When?

  3. I missed this on Friday, was out of town, but apparently Palin gave some sort of a policy speech about meaningful money for kids with disabilites/ ADA compliance in general, and trashed fruit fly research in the process.

     

    Fruit fly research is a big part of genetic research work, including autism.

     

    Nice work, research team. :rolleyes:

  4. And I'm still wondering why McCain didn't pick Kay Bailey-Hutchison.

     

    Uh, YEAH, or maybe Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe, or Christie Todd Whitman. Would have been a much different race.

     

    That said, it's entirely possible they all said "thanks, but no thanks".

     

    When you have guys like Christopher Buckley, Scott McClellan, and Colin Powell all endorsing the other guy, ya gotta wonder.

     

    At least McCain's still got Joe Lieberman and Joe the Plumber...
