Maybe I'm an evil selfish person, but I'd love to have an Oscar deLorenta dress, and a Chanel bracelet I saw once. I will be honest. If I could spend 300,000 on clothes, I would, and I don't see why I should be responsible for others mistakes.
I'm sure Mrs. Obama's outfit was expensive, along with everybody else's at either convention. I don't remember seeing anybody in Faded Glory or No Boundaries.
SH-
I think the point is that the Republicans are trying to claim that Obama is elitist...and that they are 'of the people'...i don't think the same claim was made by Obama...i think that's the point.
she made a good speech, but this earmark thing will be the end of this ticket. what a bummer for fiscal conservatives - could have been a turning point for change but first the bad mccain nomination then he picks someone opposite his earmark crusade.
let's hope obama can save us but i don't see how a massive increase in taxes will lower gas prices and create jobs. attacking 'evil' corporations may make you feel good (hey it's not me, what do i care?) but it doesn't work. good luck!
but palin's speech last night does? not one word about the economy or any issue for that matter. all she did was spray hatred and lies. does that end divisiveness? i mean come on, she wasn't even wearing a flag pin...and their slogan is country first. bullshit.
she is a secessionist and spoke are their keynote event last year and the year before
much like the Arizona representatives who speak at the national socialist alliance.
these 'moralists' are bankrupt, if they can't bring jesus back or some other supernatural hokey poky they are threw
you'all will wake up one day Free Ramos and Compean & aquapura for now we just will accept your irrational and emo selfs. you are putting on a show a form of entertainment for free thinkers who were not abused as children and adolescents, we do want to help you because we all share the same needs.
"Barack Obama is proposing large middle-class tax cuts to reward work, encourage wealth accumulation, and stimulate economic growth. John McCain is proposing little in direct tax relief for middle-income families and has proposed a health plan that would, over time, represent a significant tax increase for most American families." - Wall Street Journal
"The rich would pay more under Barack Obama's tax plan, and the poor and middle-class would pay less, a nonpartisan analysis finds. Under John McCain's plan, the rich would pay much less than they do now, the poor and middle-class would pay a bit less, and the federal deficit would grow, the study found." - Chicago Sun
Republicans only call for ending the divisiveness when it's aimed at them. And in almost every case, it's because the Democrats are forced to respond to some Rovian slime attack from the Republicans.
Don't all of a sudden play like the Republicans are angelic, FRAC. This is, after all, the party of Rove, Abrahmoff, Nixon, Lee Atwater, Donald Rumsfeld, and a bunch of other grade-A slimers.
drill baby drill...its not about ending our reliance on carbon based fuels, no the answer is to fuck up our coastlines to provide us with our own oil to burn. makes sense
The Vince has a photo of Sarah all sweaty in a thong, no top and riding a snow mobile (goggles on and hair-a-flying). Unfortunately, the Vince will not share.
Also, the Vince has a $2156 outfit he wears for the ladies.
MArch06- i think FRC needs to watch that daily show clip
yes i watch the daily show just about every night and that was a good one, a real 'gotcha' moment nailing rove, o'reilly, etc. regarding experience and picking on women.
actually it is a previous daily show clip that i think of when blanket statements like 'the republican party is the party of racists'. the clip was of west virginia democrats back during the primary between obama and clinton. lots of shocking statements like 'i won't vote for someone from another race' and 'i don't like the hussain thing .. i've had enough of hussain!'. racism is hardly confined to one party. that's it for me, you can believe what you want to believe.
but back to the daily show thing - unlike rove and o'reilly (don't forget obama is on 'the factor' tonight!) dr. laura has not contradicted herself when it comes to potential vp sarah palin:
I’m stunned - couldn’t the Republican Party find one competent female with adult children to run for Vice President with McCain? I realize his advisors probably didn’t want a “mature” woman, as the Democrats keep harping on his age. But really, what kind of role model is a woman whose fifth child was recently born with a serious issue, Down Syndrome, and then goes back to the job of Governor within days of the birth?
fox news not once, not twice, but three times "confused" obama with osama. if that's not straight up fear mongering with prejudice and racism im not sure what is
i kept hearing that palin 'hit it out of the park'...what would be nice is to see a transcript of each main speaker's speech...so it'd be easy to see who was talking the issues and/or who was being devisive etc.
a quick sports aside that i love, there was a recent SI article that talks about pedroia and his moxy and his shit-talking prowess. there was once quote from dustin talking about facing a top pitcher and the attitude he tries to spread through the dugout. after getting a hit off of a tough starter he came back and said, "92 mph coming in, 102 mph going out." i love pedroia.
and lars i think cnn they have the transcripts for the speeches, i saw it there this morning but can't find it now
yes, i am enjoying that prospect. 102 mph indeed -- when he pulls the ball and just cranks into left field, one is suprised to remember he's roughly the size of a common garden gnome!
just got an email from the obama campaign w/ an embedded video with "fake empire" by the national playing the background, fighting back against the republican's mockery and derision of "community organizing" and essentially -- community SERVICE -- zam!
I don't think she hit it out of the park--it was a double that she tried to stretch into a triple. In the end I think she'll be thrown out at third. The independents are going to see George Bush II.
The country wants change, not 4 more years of Bush.
Sarah Palin???
Maybe I'm an evil selfish person, but I'd love to have an Oscar deLorenta dress, and a Chanel bracelet I saw once. I will be honest. If I could spend 300,000 on clothes, I would, and I don't see why I should be responsible for others mistakes.

but sarah in context of that comment its looney
like i said they are the party of lies hate and racism
zero choice
mccain needs to drop palin immediately
she made a good speech, but this earmark thing will be the end of this ticket. what a bummer for fiscal conservatives - could have been a turning point for change but first the bad mccain nomination then he picks someone opposite his earmark crusade.
let's hope obama can save us but i don't see how a massive increase in taxes will lower gas prices and create jobs. attacking 'evil' corporations may make you feel good (hey it's not me, what do i care?) but it doesn't work. good luck!
Anti there are racists and liars in both parties
get over it
she would force 13 year old rape victims to keep their kids, so she says
and coming from Alaska where rape and incest is among the highest this does not bode well for any rational or compassionate person.
Free Ramos and Compean
no. racists cling to the republican party like the white jesus image
i just learned that wasilla is the meth capital of alaska. sweet
Antisthenes
yawn
FRAC,
I think the point is that there are MORE racists and liars in the Repub. party. Of course, this is a totally unprovable assertion.
But as with religious faith, I feel it to be true. And who are you to tell me that it's not?
Gawd damn, Sarah Palin already has over 600 comments on Archinect. The McCain threads never got that kind of attention.
cuz she's hawt!
Anti/far
you can certainly say what you want, believe what you want, and have Faith that the republican party is 'the party of lies hate and racism'.
but such thinking does nothing to bring us together and end this divisiveness.
but palin's speech last night does? not one word about the economy or any issue for that matter. all she did was spray hatred and lies. does that end divisiveness? i mean come on, she wasn't even wearing a flag pin...and their slogan is country first. bullshit.
lets not forget intolerance and discrimination, the party of.
she is a secessionist and spoke are their keynote event last year and the year before
much like the Arizona representatives who speak at the national socialist alliance.
these 'moralists' are bankrupt, if they can't bring jesus back or some other supernatural hokey poky they are threw

Yeah, last night was such a spectacle of inclusion and tolerance.
Did you see the bilious venom spewed by Mitt, Rudy, and Sarah? Or was it "see no evil, hear no evil?"

farwest1 it's make up 'evil' and keep lying about it to scare weak minded people with shock doctrine.

Unconvinced War criminals.

there is hope for you FRC, everyone can flip flop!!

Just one question about taxes before I apparently go back to being my emo self
Would Obama eliminate all of the Bush tax cuts?

Sarah Palin and Motherhood
I’m stunned - couldn’t the Republican Party find one competent female with adult children to run for Vice President with McCain? I realize his advisors probably didn’t want a “mature” woman, as the Democrats keep harping on his age. But really, what kind of role model is a woman whose fifth child was recently born with a serious issue, Down Syndrome, and then goes back to the job of Governor within days of the birth?
fox news not once, not twice, but three times "confused" obama with osama. if that's not straight up fear mongering with prejudice and racism im not sure what is
and yet she'll vote for mccain or basically for palin who will most likely be president if they're elected....
that makes sense
obama's supposed to be on o'reilly tonight...i only watch fox news when i'm drinking, but i think i gotta see this one fully sober...
march...how is that possible they're 'fair and balanced'?
of course, they said it was an "honest" mistake. i repeat, not once, not twice, but three times
thanks anyway, MArch, i know i can track it down somewhere. maybe your father was thinking of pedroia after all -- he's been on fire!
it got lost up near the top, but i found the link...
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080904/ap_on_el_pr/cvn_fact_check
oh damn -- thanks!
he posted the link..
i kept hearing that palin 'hit it out of the park'...what would be nice is to see a transcript of each main speaker's speech...so it'd be easy to see who was talking the issues and/or who was being devisive etc.
and pedroia is en fuego...it's gonna be interesting to see a yankee-less playoffs again...
a quick sports aside that i love, there was a recent SI article that talks about pedroia and his moxy and his shit-talking prowess. there was once quote from dustin talking about facing a top pitcher and the attitude he tries to spread through the dugout. after getting a hit off of a tough starter he came back and said, "92 mph coming in, 102 mph going out." i love pedroia.
and lars i think cnn they have the transcripts for the speeches, i saw it there this morning but can't find it now
whoops it was ESPN the magazine...
http://sports.espn.go.com/espnmag/story?id=3512455
yes, i am enjoying that prospect. 102 mph indeed -- when he pulls the ball and just cranks into left field, one is suprised to remember he's roughly the size of a common garden gnome!

great song! "we're half awake in a fake empire" INDEED.
I don't think she hit it out of the park--it was a double that she tried to stretch into a triple. In the end I think she'll be thrown out at third. The independents are going to see George Bush II.
The country wants change, not 4 more years of Bush.
she, like GWB before her, woke up on third base thinking she hit a triple.
enuff' baseball talk. eff' pedroia, that fratboy. schilling is a shill for bush. go back to the baseball thread!!!
this puts palin's speech in perspective and i will be sure to send this to my dad...
