I hope we haven't reached the point where we think that banker in Florida who distributed the 60 million to present and past employees is a sucker rather than a saint.
Chaplain,

WOW! I guess I "misunderestimated" the political reaction on this site!

I was making a motor head comment, not a political one. I would have made the same comment had Bush, Carter, Lincoln, or Washington said it.

She is okay, but not my dream girl by a long shot. Now quit trying to change the subject.

I like the talk from Obama about cutting the deficit in half. It sounds like a good thing. Hard to believe what he said when he just signed away 900 billion last week. I doubt that all of that cash (and by cash I mean debt) is going where it should be going.

When is that tea party?

I wonder if the old coconut shell game is going on here. Raise the debt by a zillion then claim credit for cutting it in 1/2 later.

This is strange math.

Now, a tea party sounds like a good idea--a really good idea at that. I think we should throw one. Want to join?

I like Twinnings English Breakfast. So, no one touch that one. The Constant Comment and Earl Grey can go into the "drink."

While 53% of the nation electorate voted for Obama, I thought we could get close to 100% here on this site to agree that Danica is really purty.

Good,

We have 3 guys now. Not sure what we will dump in.

Never been to a protest before...it's going to be fun--well, at least interesting knowing you guys!

Chaplain,

That soldier's language wouldn't go over very well in Utah

...but his spirit would! I imagine he has seen some tough things in his day.

I checked the site. None for Salt Lake City yet. We need a Salt Lake City Tea Party and if no one else is doing it, then I intend to do it! Even if only 3 of us show up.
