Actually, they work even when they are not in session voting.

Get your facts straight. Your ignorance is showing.

Read the article and have informed commentary

Tuborg, don't forget that truth is irrelevant in a smear campaign.

These knuckleheads won't listen.

You talk about others running smear campaigns and truth, yet you call others ignorant and knucklehead?

Pot meet kettle (gets kind of redundant with you)

But so what, I don’t disapprove of his handling of the transition but that doesn’t mean I think he has proved he will be a competent POTUS. Remember also that 98% of seniors at liberal-arts colleges and universities can identify Snoop Dogg and Beavis and Butt-Head, but only 34 percent knew George Washington was the general at the battle of Yorktown. So I'm glad they also approve of Barry's transition so far, it means a lot.



Ok, let’s count together shall we. 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.

But you use the 143 days in a different context. Since those 143 days he has run two successful campaigns and they occured in more then 1 day.

I know but it is good for a little fun. There are posters on each side who are just here for the fun of it all and then there appears to be a few who have some sort of organic need being met here and thats what keeps the ratings up. This is sorta like a reality forum I guess less informative and more entertainment.

Gee, whose side should I take on this issue?

The man ran one of the most successful campaigns in decades. As a black man, he won against one of the most revered Senators in history. You can make all the idiotic points that you want. But you're not fooling anybody. Obama is competence.
He is competent because he won an election, got it. So I guess you think Bush is very competent, he won two.

Really, and what was Barry doing on his "off" days to add to his experience? My facts are straight learn to read, but if you want to add a few days to his vast experience be my guest. It's funny that you actually want to argue over how many DAYS experience Barry has.

Actually, that could explain a few of the posters.

I've wondered why some of the people here are willing to go to any extreme bickering over some election that was decided five weeks ago. But now I get it.... apparently they think this is a reality tv show and the "winner" receives $1 million!

Our get to salvage their personal sense of identity which is being challenged these days by the POTUS elect and soon to be POTUS. He will be the face of America and for most Americans it is their face. For a few, oh well.
