Hello.........Where's our friend Rachel?
Im confussed where in the hell did all the money from the stimulus go? These were suspose to have been fixed already.
Didn't you have your City Hall redecorated?
http://www.recovery.gov You can track where the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act money went there.
It says the we already spent money for this. Who stole the money that went for infrstucture?
So,, you have to wonder how romney is even polling in the 40's and not the 20's.
He's got the guun luvrs. Something the Democrats did in 1994... The very first thing Obama is going to do is TAKE AWAY OUR GUNS... Of course we all assume that gun luvrs have small penises,,, but I think it is more than just that.... I'll bet that half of the guun fanatics were beat up while in junior high school. A kind of PTSD..
romney, of course, also has the deusch bag crowd, those folks who make their money off of slave labor in China, Mexico, India, etc.. The 1%rs.
Bigots, your average christian who thinks the bibble exonerates/prescribes slavery... It does,, they are.
Government contractors,,, why would anyone charging $400.00 for a $40.00 toilet seat then want to then pay taxes?
Why, after huricane Katrina, did Louisiana vote republican?
Why, after the VET hospital scandal, would any Vet vote republican??
I get that you don't like Romney, but this is both inaccurate and uncalled for.
If you actually poll "guun luvrs," (i.e. members of the NRA), you find much less radical positions on gun control than the lobby itself is articulating. This could indicate that the more radical "cream," if you will, tends to rise to the top in the organization.
It could also have something to do with the NRA's organizational alliances with the military-industrial complex. Or the fact that Roger Ailes & co. have a vested interest in promoting astro turf as if it's grassroots. Either way, I don't think blaming and slandering your run-of-the-mill gun owners (while being incredibly insensitive about actual people who suffer from actual PTSD, a real and serious thing) is the way to go.
Also Wil, I don't know if this was an oversight, but in that sea of water main-related links, you left out Atlanta and Atlanta only.
Erza you hit the nail on the head. My thoughts are it's going to take people dying for the stupid Congress to realize bridges need repairing. The President and many of us realize this but stupid Congress does not. I can't remember the state up north but a bridge broke and people died. Obviously some of the dead was not part of the stupid Congress family but people died. Why is it that it is going to take people dying for people to realize something should have been done ages ago?
We already did but the money didnt go where it was intended to go. I guess sombody stole the money because one of the first things Obama did was the stimulus. The unfortunate thing about it is unless we put some outside party over the money its going to get stole again.
Someone smarter than I can give me the proper name of this error, where one presents the conclusion as a premise. Everyone has access to capital. The only difference is in degree. Rich kids have it easy, people giving presentations to venture funds have to be good.
You are correct when you say "Rich kids have it easy, people giving presentations to venture funds have to be good".
However, please realize that you are thinking about this issue in an extremely narrow way. Are there really only these two mechanisms to access wealth.
Poor people who have no wealth or access to capital just need to have a better presentation to venture funds?
You say,"the only difference is in degree". If you take out the word "only" I would agree with you. The difference is between people who have no or tiny access no matter how hard they work and people easy and vast access. The difference is HUGE!!
Good gobbledygook, Proud of you, you've learned your lessons well, hope you live to tell.
Of course not. Anyone with a loan has had access to wealth. Scholarships are access to wealth.
???? The only access to wealth poor people need is a job. Those are provided by people with wealth, no?
All your children deserve diginity and respect. Let me give all people the respect that I would give you, Lord. Humble my heart when I feel myself looking down on those around me. Amen. God blesses the poor and those who help him. Take hold of your blessing . Help someone in need.....Just because Christ said so.
yes,,, now that I've soberd up and reinebreated,,, I just like to say I'm sorry about the "small penis" remark. That should really just apply to just dicktators and prison gaurds that have done me wrong.. And truely truely I say unto you that having a small penis is not derogatory,,, as those who have, are probably the few who go on to "get a life".
and,,, I'm certainly not saying PTSD is a derogatory,, after watching Herschal Walker you-tubes,,, I'm guessing that PTSD is much much, more common than what we now know. Please give me $50,000 for research,, and I will show that %50 of guun luvn rabid rebublicans got beat up in junior high. Not so much a good or bad thing,, as much as just pointing out a dynamic...
So,, sorry about the penis thing,, just dictators and men who assault women,,
Ooooo, those pesky black helicopters again,,, gotta run...
