  1. Isnt it ironic that the left clamoring for gun control simply caused the public to purchase more guns?
  2. Yeah, sure the governor asked the President to stay away. That request certainly was pure and not contrived if it is true.
  3. You mean Muhammad Ali was not an athlete?
  4. I love LeBron James- He is an Obama supporter
  5. Pray tell, why was it as expected?
  6. Here is someone who believes Bush didn't do that poorly in dealing with Hurricane Katrina: [Hidden Content]
  7. Classic- nobody as efficient, logical, and reasonbale as Uncle Sam. We really need him involved more in our daily lives. Lots of people believe that would be a good thing
  8. Financial guru? Nah, impossible for sales boys.
  9. Keep in mind that the whole point of the original post was that we pay an awful lot of taxes already. Some don't apply in some cases and in other cases they do. But I understand your desire to "take me down a notch" [Hidden Content]
  10. There are lots of people who believe that is one of the definitions of fairness and compassion
  11. My guess is that you believe Presidential efficacy is more likely if the efficacy was an Oxford by product as opposed to a Lamar by product. If that is the case, we can just simply agree to disagree. My life experiences haven't validated that theory to me, hence I don't subscribe to it even though I will be the first to admit that I am not a particularly worldly individual.
  12. Gotcha- But I have to tell you, I find it EXTREMELY difficult to believe that Mr. Clinton could have dealt with 911 any more effectively than Mr. Bush did. I felt it was outstanding. ( I will submit to you that while "both because they wanted to help people hurting" is certainly an honorable intent, physical presence is not a prerequisite. I don't cry at funerals, but it reflects ZERO in regard to my sentiments and/or sense of loss. I had a very close friend who lost a child and we had visitation at their home one night. Most everyone was at their home doing their best to act and say the right thing. I was parking their cars as they were dropped off at the home and feel my contribution was every bit as meaningful as words being expressed via sorrowful appearances although to many, it sure didnt look like I "cared".
  13. Doubtful Republicans can get rid of them but I am inclined to believe they will make a better effort not to add to them or raise the percentage on any of them. The gift tax is a tax on the transfer of property by one individual to another while receiving nothing, or less than full value, in return. The tax applies whether the donor intends the transfer to be a gift or not. Estate taxes are paid by the deceased persons estate before the money is distributed to their heirs. Inheritance taxes are paid by the person inheriting the money or assets. Yours truly, Salesboy

  15. I guess I was just dreaming this: [Hidden Content]
  16. Please help me in my old age- What natural disasters did Mr. Clinton oversee with hands on decisiveness during his Presidency. I honestly don't recall any but I don't trust my memory.
  17. :Are the sales at Sears, JC Penney and Bealls sales declining because the Obama Economy is not as good as it is being portrayed? Or are those three companies simply on their last leg? In either case, if you are trying to use those three as justification for declining sales, explain this: Wal-Mart Stores (WMT) announced Q2 financial results that were a bit better than expected. The retail behemoth reported earnings of $1.07, beating expectations for $1.02 per share. Revenue came in at $120.9 billion, which was better than the $120.1 billion expected. Comparable US store sales increased by 1.6% reflecting the eighth straight quarter of gains. Management noted that comparable store traffic grew for the seventh straight quarter. “We’re pleased with the positive momentum in our business,” CEO Doug McMillon said.
  18. Does "even" , as used above" suggest that Mr. Huckabee is one of those who is not sufficiently "enlightened"
  19. I am sure the only retort you will get for this ( if you get any at all) is that the composer is a racist!!!!!!
  20. Maybe they need to get "real smart" and hire some business experts from the government to engineer a turnaround!!!!
  21. What link do you want? A link showing a peeping pervert in action?
