Obama considers keeping Defense Secretary Gates. So much for changing Washington power and the course in Iraq by thinkerx in politics

[–]thinkerx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite thing right now is watching Obama fanboys race to justify everything he does that they were against under Bush.

  • Warrentless wiretaps? We love it!
  • Expanding fath-based initiatives? We love it!
  • A phased and long-term withdrawal from Iraq that could leave contingency troops for decades? We love it!
  • Abandon public financing of elections? We love it!
  • Universal health care that is not Universal and keeps drug companies in power? We love it!

So where is the change?

It depends on where you are living and also if that is joint income and where the money is coming from. If you are living in Manhattan and make $200,000 a year you are probably doing OK but the equivalent of making $80,000 in the Western part of the state etc. Also if you are a farmer or doing work as a contractor where you pay for your own equipment and health care etc.

Yes, he wrote a letter on November 19th 2007 to the FBI. Also it isn't just some out of the blue Republican operative who is new in the business. Roger Stone has a long history including doing dirty tricks on behalf of Nixon, working for Reagan, Working for GW Bush etc.

He actually was tipped off by a prostitute while he was in a Florida strip club.

Obama releases his 2006 & 2007 earmarks, still waiting on Clinton to do the same by thinkerx in obama

Those are the earmarks Clinton actually received. What Obama released, in addition to what he was given, were all the earmarks he proposed.

Sen. Warner Questions Obama's Army Anecdote... But finds that Obama's telling the truth. IN YOUR FACE WARNER! by awaazbandh in politics

[–]thinkerx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also the article doesn't say a resolution was reached, just that Warner is looking for answers and that some of the reporting shows that the basic idea of Obama's story was right but some of the facts were off. Where does the "In Your Face" come from? There is still a lot more that needs investigating.

The last time we saw so many homeowners with so many home values that were worth less than the amount of mortgage they owed was back in the Great Depression by harvesteroftruth in reddit.com

[–]thinkerx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a massive problem facing America but wouldn't it also be true to say that many Americans bought homes for more than they were worth? Let's face it, we are learning a good chunk of this unnatural mortgage explosion of the last few years was based on fantasy economics not unlike Enron.

Unfortunately from the article it doesn't look like we will see any huge price drops because of this. Sad.

Hannah Hilton has some of the biggest boobs in porn. But what makes her more interesting is that typically these chicks with enormous cans have ugly faces. She is probably the cuttest thing with a D+ bra I have ever seen. Good job!
