If I showed you Reason #69, you'd be throwing rocks at that Jimmy chick.

We're the same person. I thought everyone knew this?

For the record, I have thought that most of the time. If not the same person, then you both share logins all of the time.

Interesting theory.

Palin has her first interview tonight with Charles Gibson. I think part of it is on the World News and then the rest on Nightline. I hope she wears a little short skirt.

I got this in an email this morning...

Folks, no matter which party you support, please take a realistic look at these facts.



You couldn't get a job at McDonalds and become district manager after 143 days of experience.


You couldn't become chief of surgery after 143 days of experience of being a surgeon.

You couldn't get a job as a teacher and be the superintendent after 143 days of experience.

You couldn't join the military and become a colonel after a 143 days of experience.

You couldn't get a job as a reporter and become the nightly news anchor after 143 days of experience.


BUT....

From the time Barack Obama was sworn in as a United State Senator, to the time he announced he was forming a Presidential exploratory committee, he logged 143 days of experience in the Senate. That's how many days the Senate was actually in session and working. After 143 days of work experience, Obama believed he was ready to be Commander In Chief, Leader of the Free World, and fill the shoes of Abraham Lincoln, FDR, J FK and Ronald Reagan. 143 days.

AND, strangely, a large sector of the American public is okay with this and campaigning for him. We wouldn't accept this in our own line of work, yet some are okay with this for the President of the United States of America? Come on folks, we are not voting for the next American Idol here!

This would make sense if the alternative to voting for Obama wasnt a 72 year old guy with a history of cancer whos running mate has 18 months of experience being governor of a state of less than 600,000.Mccain blew this arguement up already but you're to stupid or stubborn to realize it.

Palin has no idea what the Bush doctrine is.None.She's ready to be president?I have to secretly think you Gopers are ashamed at what you have to defend.Lets elect another president who doesnt sweat the details.That worked well the last 8 years.

Economy in the shitter, 70% of Americans think we are on the wrong track, american invaded a country for no reason, America lost its moral standing in the world, we are known along with N. Korea as countries that torture.

Are you fucking serious?

The president can't be blamed for the economy bird. To believe that is just ignorant. Is he to blame for all the peeps that are borrowing money for houses they can't afford? Clinton got credit for the dot com boom... his deficit cutting package had nothing to do with helping the economy.

If you think Bush has been a good president than theres nothing I can do for you.You're like the pro vietnam war people during the 60's.
