How about if we Drill ANWR, Florida, Conserve and Stop Cutting Interest Rates?

I am visualizing the movie: I’m going to get you sucker - when I hear her speak. She and Michelle Obama define clearly the angry, you owe me whitey - black woman, scary very scary. Trust them with the nuclear suitcase, I think not./Just Asking - seoul62.........

Hey she’s just part of the “progressive” wing of the rat party. What’s everyone so worked up about? The elephant in the room?

Trust them with the nuclear suitcase, I think not.

Every time I get depressed about McCain (ie. when I'm awake) I imagine Obama as CIC. That nightmare simply can't happen.

I use to think there had to be a certain amount of intelligence to be elected as a political leader to represent a group of people, but this waste of brain cells representative destroys that theory.

There are only two ways to allocate resources: the pricing mechanism of the market or the favor of the mighty. It’s very clear which method is advocated here.

Rush played her sound byte today. She came right out and said that she wants to “socialize” the oil industry, but as soon as the “s” word was out of her mouth, she stopped...stammered, and the hem-hawed around before saying “government takeover.”

What a scary, ignorant, dangerous woman...

Apparently, Waters is committed to bring the same brand of efficiency to the oil companies that government has demonstrated at the Post Office and Social Security.

So she admits that she wants domestic oil delivery to be an abject failure?

How about firm of Solomon Barney Frank takes over the oil companies with tight congressional oversight?


For those that don't know, Maxine Waters, during a committee hearing on corporate mismangement and book cooking was attempting to say Solomon Smith Barney, but instead said Solomon Barney Frank.

“Ted Hayes is an urban hustler in LA. Do some research (beyond just Hayes’ website)”

How isn’t that still an improvement on Comrade Waters?

Was the Maxine, or was that Obama’s wife? I think they both have the same Socialist views.

“I’m getting a Who is John Galt? bumper sticker.”

Unfortunately, most of the people at whom your bumpersticker is aimed at wouldn’t get it.

That is like dropping a lot of bad acid and waking up to find a naked Helen Thomas, Hillary Clinton, Susan Estrich, Al Franken and Dennis Kuchinich in bed with you jabbing on and on. Oy Vey, the horror, the thought. Can we say.....STOP I WANT TO GET OFF....../Just Asking - seoul62.......

That is quite a picture! Is it real or is it photoshopped?
