So you are deciding to insult people that are likely going to be there anytime you go to the hospital?

I dare you whenever you go to the hospital and insult them when they have your life in their hands.

And sports managers ARE one of the most useless majors when it comes to progressing society.

I'm not a sports manager. That's not what I do, that's not the title of my major. If it could be titled 'Sports Business' like around three schools have it, I would be happier, but it's not. And I said nurse, not doctor. Nurses can't get into medical school.

Not one person here is an expert on economic theory or the implementation of policies that maximize the effectiveness and fairness of the economy under any circumstance. Let's be real here. Barack Obama is not the expert either. At the very least, it is time to recognize that Republicans and Conservatives DO NOT have any answers when it comes to the economy, or the proper use of taxes. For 8 years, Bush did not tax and look what the hell happened. Utter disaster. Jesus Christ, wake up!

Barack Obama is not an economic expert. But he is a problem solver and he is very intelligent and possesses great depth. A black man who ascends to this level as the leader of this nation, not by handouts or favors, but by DEEDS, knows how to overcome adversity and devise the best means to get results. I am confident that he will listen to EVERYONE and consider ALL options before choosing the best course.

Nobody wants to pay more taxes, but I think it is juvenile to simply focus on this old tired argument. It's incredibly shallow considering that one's quality of life encompasses far more than how much tax is paid. Under Republican leadership, we were paying more for gas, utilities, education for our kids. We are paying more for health care, more for health insurance. Under trickle-down, wages weren't keeping up with inflation except for the very rich. Some aspects of our lives can't be measured by money. Skyrocketing street gang crime and influence, teen pregnancy, and violence in schools. Over the last 8 years, there have been more shootings at universities than I can remember. I could go on, but focusing on taxes seems incredibly short-sighted. But Republicans are stuck on this. Shame.

I expect Obama to run this country like he ran his campaign: superior to anyone else in this country.

Led by the Tri Lateral Commission and the Council on Foreign Relations Obama had the power behind him and people were deluded into voting for him. Alex Jones' Prison Planet: The truth will set you free!

Default Mr. President Moot Point

Well people, for what ever reason so many of you, of us, were duped, it's a moot point. The man IS IN. HE IS GOING TO BE THE PRESIDENT. Now, NOW we are ALL going to have to deal with it. Gosh, ya know, what is this....buyers remorse? How incredibly STUPID! Should have THOUGHT about all that before hand, thought about the TOTAL LACK OF EXPERIENCE, thought about the VOTING RECORD, about the Communist Terrorist William Aires, the Weather Underground Terrorist group, The "reverend" Jeremiah Wright "the best that the Black Church has to offer...." thought about the law suits Obama was part of forcing banks to hand out bad loans to those who could not pay, defaulting, the result of which threw the market in to turmoil etc etc...Well, too dang late now. Watch Airs go to the Whitehouse, a man who should be in jail for murder. Watch Rev. Wright go to the Whitehouse. Don't think so?

I bet they DO....They'll be standing there with the biggest s--t eating grins on their faces....and YOU put them there.....

Thanks a BUNCH!


Well America?

You were angry at G.W. and the Repubs.....well guess what...

...you all just voted in a guy who will be infinitely WORSE....Wow...now THAT'll show em'....YOU have just put your OWN neck in the noose!

You were all dumb enough to elect Billy Clinton....now you've got Barak...(who is hiring all sorts of Clinton people to run the country, telling YOU how it is going to be)


....IDIOTS.....


Oh, but wait there is more....

B.H.O. is just sooooo cute!....He's soooo sexy....(rrraaaawww)....He'd get the dizzy college white chick vote any day!

...so he's in!

He was guaranteed to get virtually 100% of the "black" vote....

so he's in!

Now we all get to deal with it.

As I was reading this I was wondering when a reference to race was coming.
