  1. Letterman's Ten 10 Questions People Are Asking John McCain 10. I just contributed to your campaign - how do I get my money back? 9. Hi, this is Sarah Palin. Does this mean I'm Parsi'dent? 8. Can't you solve this by selling some of your homes? 7. Hi, this is Clay Aiken. Is McCain single? 6. Do you still think the fundamentals of our economy are strong, genius? 5. Are you doing all of this just to get out of going on Letterman? 4. What would Matlock do? 3. Hillary here, my schedule is free Friday night. 2. Is this just an excuse to catch up on napping? 1. This is President Bush, what's all this trouble with the economy?
  2. nevermind, geek computer game reference. Everytime a Protoss Dragoon appears it says "I hath returned"
  3. So this is more like a Dodge Journey competitor?
  4. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
  5. So what you're saying is, Obama should just cut a check to him at a regular interval to support him.... but then how would George Obama ever have motivation to better himself? If Barack becomes President, George is going to need some sort of protection.
  6. And Palin makes you think that.... how exactly?
  7. ok... now you're a dumbass :neenerneener: Way to over analyze it there Data
  8. I stopped buying desktops years ago. If you want a decent graphics card in a laptop you have to go super high end and it kills battery life. Battery life is more important to me than the most recent games, so that wins.
  9. Sorry, I don't want to bother with a game that needs an Intel Core 8 quatro just to run in low graphics mode.
  10. What about the ongoing crisis for 46,000,000 Americans who lack health insurance? What about the energy crisis? Or the crisis faced by real families every single day who can't send their kids to decent school? McCain served nearly 30 years in Washington. The only crisis he sees is his poll numbers falling like a rock. This stunt is as dishonest and dishonorable as the man himself has become.
  11. Captain Smith-McCain aimed us right at an iceburg and ordered full speed ahead. After we hit the iceburg Captain Smith-McCain says the gash isn't all that bad and suggests the ship is structurally sound and not to panic. The entire prow is now under water, half the crew and passengers have drowned, yet Captain Smith-McCain insists the structure is still good. The tail of the ship is now up in the air like a feeding duck, so Captain Smith-McCain calls the engine room and orders an ALL STOP to see if there is damage. Captain Smith-McCain boldly declares that we shouldn't have aimed for the iceburg; Hailed as a maverick and a hero. Leadership first.
  12. image.... all about the image. I find it interesting that the guy who helped put the legislation in place that allowed this mess now wants to not debate about it so they can talk about cleaning it up.
  13. Where have I ever suggested that the taxes of the rich be paid directly to the poor? 1st: I want to lower taxes, a lot, on those that fall into that bracket I made you look up. 2nd: Since the poor don't pay taxes, their taxes can't be lowered. I would invest heavily in public transit/infrastructure, public schools, public health, and higher education to open the opportunity to succeed to anyone in the lower classes who wants to reach for it. If you're poor, you'll have to get your butt up off the couch and do something about it. You won't be getting any tax rebates/welfare from me.
  14. A growing, productive economy? Not sure if that was an attempt at a trick question or not.
  15. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
  16. Only because the multimillionaire is opposed to paying him a living wage even going so far as to use congressional action to prevent it.
  17. Homework assignment: Find out who qualifies, in Adjusted Gross Income, as being in the Top 50% but under the top 10% in tax year 2006. Extra credit: Justify that income range as being something other than "middle class".
  18. Trickle. Down. Doesn't. Work.
  19. It's a perfectly good people mover that would be a perfectly good HHR replacement that would sell well here in the US and is apparently built on a platform that will be sold in the US, but GM won't sell it here. I've stopped caring.
  20. Wasn't there an article about a week ago saying that the GPS was going to calculate how far from home you were and only recharge you enough just to get you home?
  21. When did this happen? Oh yea... when Obama was 4?
  22. Raines was CEO! Davis IS CURRENTLY on McCain's CAMPAIGN STAFF.
  23. Franklin Raines was CEO and that was from 1999 to 2004. Rick Davis was getting checks from Freddie Mac while being on McCain's campaign staff as recently as August. Try again.
  24. Sarah Palin who recently said, "When you run for office, your life is an open book." McCain Camp: No Palin Medical Records Till After The Election from The Daily Dish | By Andrew Sullivan by Andrew Sullivan This Howie Kurtz piece is amazing in many ways but there is one staggering piece of real news buried in it: "Governor Palin has no history of health problems," [McCain campaign spokesman Michael] Goldfarb says. "We believe that a candidate should be able to preserve some privacy in this process, and we're confident the American people will validate that judgment come election day." So the only objective evidence we will be allowed to have about Palin's medical history, including the bizarre story of her fifth pregnancy, is Michael Goldfarb's assurance that she has "no history of health problems" and that "privacy" trumps even basic transparency and accountability in a national campaign.
  25. An article in Newsweek has now revealed that McCain's campaign manager, Rick Davis, was receiving monthly $15,000 checks until last month from Freddie Mac, the mortgage agency that the government recently took over. In addition, the head of McCain's transition team, William Timmons, Sr., was a registered lobbyist for Freddie Mac until this month according to an article on Bloomberg News. His firm received $260,000 this year for unspecified work. Although McCain likes to rail against lobbyists and how he will put them in their place, having his campaign being run by people who lobbied for Freddie Mac cuts to the heart of his pitch as a reformer. This story is soon going to be all over the place (see for example, Newsday, the NY Times, and Roll Call).
