What's all this then? classicman is conceding?

We've already gone the way of the liberal thugocracy? I'm pretty sure only republicans are allowed to be thugs...

Bri - What am I conceding? I haven't even decided who to vote for yet - I gave myself another week to decide.

Blue - that was part of the semantics game - sorry my wiseass humor didn't translate well....again! maybe I should just stop trying.

A few of these liberal thugs have already been thrown mercilessly into prison, without trial!
Sisters and brothers, I beg you to join the Campaign to Free the Thugs.

Your face is a joke.

Just kidding. I was channeling Flint.

No, not a joke. I'm guessing most people in his audience that day weren't millionaires, or even quarter millionaires.

Don't be fooled. Plenty of millionares and sub millionaires are Demoncrats. Name anyone in Congress. Look at who is supporting his campaign and what businesses are supporting him. The Demoncrats, and Hillary was the best at it, appeal the poor and downtrodden. Because they are the ones out there making all the promises about what they are going to do for them. Guess what, it isn't going to happen. Congress makes the laws, and Congress appropriates the monies. No promise made by any politician during an election cycle has been kept in full.

Yeah. I'm still just a million dollars short of being a millionaire.

Now if only I were a Dem.

I doubt I was the first one to think of it, but I have been using it for the last 8 years.

Well stop using it. See what happens.

Blonde walks into doctor's office, says everything hurts. Doc says show me. Blonde touches kneecap, "This hurts"; touches ear, "This hurts"; touches rib, "This hurts"; touches stomach, "This hurts"; touches neck, "This hurts".

Doctor checks her out and hands her a small splint and sends her on her way.

Blonde says "What's this for? I feel pain in all those places."

Doctor says "You have a broken finger."

** ** ** **

mercy, I think you have an inflamed blamer. Try resting that finger. Stop abusing it with that kind of language and see if things don't clear up right away.

Lemme see now, we've got an $850 billion bailout of wall street in progress. Pelosi wants to call congress back after the election and pass another $150 billion "incentive" plan. Now Obama wants to throw in an additional $60 billion.

That's $1.6 TRILLION. (Gonna have to buy some more printing presses to handle the load of all that new money there Barrack)

I'm laughing my ass off...when the fuck did the whole financial mess become Obama's fault? Someone said there is a 5-10 year lag in policy change, so we can't blame the current administration (which I don't get, either) but now we're projecting blame into the future?

I see what you did, thar.

No, I'm not projecting blame into the future at all. Its just that many policy changes take a lot of time to actually be implemented and take hold. MOST TIMES.

I never said we cannot blame the current administration either. Lets see - 8 years in office and I said a 5-10 year timeframe... 8 is still in between 5 & 10 right? Cuz if its not I didn't get the memo.

Yeh he did. The Soviets were all allergic to peanuts and that was his secret weapon.

It is the fault of Congress and the people who made the laws that allowed the markets to bloat and burst.
