This is all really very simple. Hamas is run by Iran, supplied and given marching orders. Oil prices were too low. Iran needs to destabilize something to bring prices up. They tell Hamas to lob some rockets. They do and Israel reacts. Voila, prices are up 11 cents at the pumps in one day around here. And the Pallies are so f'ing stupid they are sacrificing their own people so the Iranians can keep their cash flow up. Nice deal for the Pallies. All the ME nations should turn on Iran and end this once and for all. But they are likely too weak so they are waiting for Israel to fix it for them.

Well, not really. His appointments were told to him by his masters, the Bill/Hill insiders. The reason the small, unimportant things were brought up is because he is small and unimportant. He has NO power base and must bow to the wishes of those that put him in place. He also has no power to push forward his agenda, just that of the entrenched Dem cabal. Which is all well and good, in some ways we did real well under Clinton and Co. But the real issues will have to be faced, not pushed on the next guy as Clinton was so want to do (WTC 1, Cole, Embassies, etc.). And your take on the "Conservative movement" is off base. It is the RINO's and the Reps not following conservative principles that have gotten them in trouble. If they are going to regain relevancy they must embrace Reagan style conservatism and articulate that to the people, not be "liberal lite". This country responds to core values and strong leadership, none of which it has had anytime recently.

I think that could just as easily be said for the left-leaners as well.
In the case of Obama, I think people's perceptions of him and their assumptions of what he would do were based on two things- what he's said and his historical actions.
On the former, he spoke about many of those bedrock liberal issues- most of which he has backed far away from. To the second point, there wasn't much history to gauge things on and what was there definitely pandered to his constituency- the poor of inner-city Chicago. Now that he's president, he's got a much larger and more diverse constituency. That and he needs to start running for re-election on his first day in office. If he tanks us into a depression with social programs, his chances are slim.

You need a padded room. Those voices in your head are lying to you. :ack2:
Well, there were some very legitimate questions raised that could have been put to rest in 5 minutes. Much more serious matter, I guess, than the birth certificate, or the lapel pin, or the ... At least I pulled the post a few hours later. As far as the wardrobe, if you factor what else has come to light- including the hair and makeup, the number is over 200k, and how do you know the thing with the lobbyist isn't true?
I suppose... if you remove the hysterics and baby jeebus.
For an intelligent, reasonably well-informed guy, you have got one hell of a myopic view of things. He spoke to a lot more than the poor of inner-city Chicago. He spoke to a lot of Americans who were/are fed up with politics of bushco and 'conservatives', and the election results across the country prove it.
And you might wanna let him actually get into office before you pronounce him running for re-election.
(that's about all I got to say on this, we've beat it to death already.)

Bet yet Palin's haircut cost less than Clinton's did back in 93 with Air Force 1 running and few runways shutdown at LAX

That's a good question. If citizens, are they breaking any law?

What crap is that? Crap you don't agree with? :03:
I guess we'll know when the lawsuit is settled.

Hmm, that could be construed as a personal attack, perhaps I should report this post to a Moderator....Oh wait. :seeya:
Tread lightly there skippy, I know you can't refute anything intelligently and since the Kos asses are all upset at Bambi already, so you can't look to them for what to say, you might just want to stick to pretty pictures. :seeya:

I don't care if you're right or wrong.
I just thought the thread hi-jacking w/politcal sh!t was to be left there as per YOUR past statements.
I personally construed that to mean you WOULD NOT engage in that stuff HERE.
I'm not happy about the other members either.
I wanted comments and thoughts about THE SUBLECT of the thread.

I'm a registered democrat, and an independent business man that has voted republican for years as I did this year. However, PE Obama, has gotten totally away from his liberal elect me speeches and gone center. Which can show a couple different things;I thought you said you were a Republican businessman. My how the times change people.
A. He wants to do whats right for the country and realized a totally liberal agenda wont cut it. He should govern from the middle.
B. He is a career politician and a liar and will say or do whatever it takes to get elected.
Either way, only time will tell, and my accountant makes sure that I wont pay any more in taxes..pretty simple really.
