RE: Who do you think will make the best United States President?

Thanks, I actually consider myself fortunate. Like anything else, it has it's good and bad days.

RE: Who do you think will make the best United States President?

Thanks... Will do

RE: Bucket list??

Many things but top of the list would be visit all of the high points in the US. About halfway there...

RE: Who do you think will make the best United States President?

I work for a USG organization doing development, reconstruction and diplomacy projects throughout Afghanistan. I'm also retired military. It's interesting and challenging so I think I'll keep doing it for a bit longer.

RE: Who do you think will make the best United States President?

Provide a birth certificate and I'll vote for you.

RE: Who do you think will make the best United States President?

Unfortunately, I'm afraid you're right. Whatever the solution is, it'll take a lot longer to get out of the mess than many think. Balancing the budget would not be that difficult to do but getting it to a point where we have a surplus to pay off the debt....

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

sounds like redistribution of wealth to me. Though Fascism has several different definitions and experts argue over what it specifically is, I think you're spot on with this comment.

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

It's now 68% to 32%. You guy is going to be a loser in 2012.

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

That depends, some say I'm pampered but I don't really know.

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

Egg Zactly

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

I wonder why it is that this is OK and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq were not OK

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

If his cause is truly for Obama, he's be more effective campaigning for the opposition

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

30 seconds That long????

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

I'm just shocked that Dude has yet to be named a diplomatic envoy to the United States from Denmark. He has such diplomatic skills..

RE: Welfare baby solution: Family Cap.

FY-11 budget estimates:

Social welfare programs amount to $702.7 Billion + another $380 billion for welfare health care costs for a total of $1 trillion.

Defense equals $965.8. I didn't see any specific costs associated with Iraq or Afghanistan but if there is, it would of course show an increase.

Regardless, this does show that the costs of welfare programs are as substantial as Defense spending. Both of which I think are too high. And, like welfare programs, I think there's loads of waste in military/defense spending.

RE: Obama, Acorn and SEIU

I may be wrong but I do believe there's a village going without right now thanks to Dude...

RE: Obama, Acorn and SEIU

Now some are beginning to see President Obama for what he is and what he stands or doesn't stand for. Of course, Dude will never get it or at least never admit getting it.

RE: Family

Nope, you've kept this really above board, no names, etc... BTW, I would have done the same thing if I were in your shoes. In fact, my sister has my mom living with her and has for years.

I wouldn't worry about the opinions of anyone and heck, it's probably best you found this out early on.

RE: happy easter

And a Happy easter to you too.

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

Yes, true to a point. I just don't slobber all over myself and lie to support mine.

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

By the way, the poll still stands at 64% vs 36%. I'd vote again but I'm not affiliated with acorn.

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

I'm certain if you look hard eneough you can find a poll to say anything you like. Fortunately, I only had to look as far o one of your threads to find a negative and probably accurate poll regarding the chosen one.

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

Well, here's the poll score thus far:

64% Against Obama
36% For Obama

This is like the 4th thread in a row that clearly indicates President Obama will morph into former President Obama or Mr. Obama if you will.

After that - Dude will and I will and

Duty Calls...

The Nanny State

That it is. I don't know about you but I was brought up with all these games and sports. I got hurt once or twice as did most kids. I turned out OK at least that's whet my shrink says.

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

Just keep telling yourself that Dude... We're staying strong with our beliefs too.

The Nanny State

Yeah, that was on the list as well. We may as well start cancelling the other sports because our children could get hurt and we need the state to step in and protect them.

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

And less face washng will be necessary

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

Dude,

After President Obama loses in 2012, please get some help. I'm going to be really concerned about you. I used to work with drug addicts and alcoholics and i've seen what withdrawl can do to people. I suspect you're going to have it bad.

RE: Women Long terms, Men Short term

RE: Obama or ... do America really want the new Republican landscape?

Where do you find this stuff?
