So he makes 20k per year, married filing jointly, his wife has 0 taxable income and he has two children. He’s obviously already moved into Obama’s fantasy world.
A guy who HOPES for CHANGE in his FUTURE is the guy that Obama and his acolytes decide to attack? I guess the hope, change, future stuff is just for slum-dwellers and un-reconstructed hippies.

Joe the McCarthy….https://dccc.org/page/contribute/tenmore6?gclid=COKsnOmBu5YCFQHHGgohttps://dccc.org/page/contribute/tenmore
It’s official. There’s been more in-depth “investigative reporting” of this guy who was playing catch with his kid when Obama walked up to him than there has been of the nitwit who is actually running for President.
“So he makes 20k per year, married filing jointly, his wife has 0 taxable income and he has two children. He’s obviously already moved into Obama’s fantasy world.”
Um, guys, this is Al Bundy from “Married with Children.” That’s the scenario, that’s the joke. This is an ad, not a case study.
We get it.
His campaign is a joke?
Just curious to see if anyone else played around with the tax calculator on the Obama site?
http://taxcut.barackobama.com/
I already figured out my tax cut from Deval last time. I’m not gonna waste the time on yet another mythical tax cut calculation.
I did and I’m saving $1,800 compared to $60 under McCain. I’m not sure why but the magic box told me it was so.
I can get you a really good deal on some land down in Florida. You have to act now or I’ll find someone else. If you don’t feel like real estate, my neighbor is related to Nigerian royalty and if you send him $5,000 today, he’ll be able to release funds from his frozen account and you’ll make millions!!! Act now!!!
Anyway, even with the all-out offensive by the media and the hundreds of millions of dollars in free campaigning by the papers/on the networks, Obama still can’t get a lead larger than the margin of error. There is still hope for common sense to prevail.

Your poll is an outlayer lincoln in other words BullShit!

Sure, Gordo. The AP is such an arch-Conservative outfit. Unlike the non-partisan “people-press”. You poor twits hate it that anyone has survived the onslaught of Obama love waged by the hyper-Lefties in the media. Rest assured, the polls still have Obama in the lead, and when you add up all the corpses, felons and puppy-dogs that have registered with Acorn, he may just pull it off.
Anyone fool around with the Career Builder salary calculator?

It tells me I should be making $10,000 more than I already am. I guess that means I am entitled to a better paying job…

Joe(sarah) the republican Vice Presidential candidate spent $150,000.00 on clothes and make up in two days and to add insult to injury she has no idea what the constitutional duties of the job of Vice President is!
Duties Gordon? Neither does any else for that matter. It’s what the VP is allowed to do by the President. Constitutionally the job description is its defined. How should she have amswered the question in your opinion?
Her clothes expenditures bother you? Why?
What difference does it make? Really?
She’s got more character, experience and ability than the democrat.
Deal with that as a topic of discussion instead…
Gordon has no choice but to mewl endlessly about Palin or make up silly names for McCain. Any discussion of the candidates reveal Obama as a brain dead Socialist who prospers only by illusion and the gullibility of the millions of people who see politics as a People magazine style “who’s hot” contest.
She doesn’t know the job description of the Job or what the constitution says about the job of VP James! Do you know James?
She’s running as a regular Joe reformer and spends $150,000.00 on clothes, thats your standard political hypocrisy!
Joe the shoe salesman could by clothes and cars for life with that kinda money!
lincoln the world is passing you and your talk radio ideology by!
My “ideology” isn’t based on talk-radio. You, however, sound like you watch endless loops of “The View” and consider yourself informed.
Just vote for your man-crush and leave the real issues to people who actually understand them.
Your ideology is a dead ringer for the typical delusions you hear on talk radio! What is the job description for the vice president of the U.S. lincoln do you know?
I’ve got a copy of the Constitution right next to me. Would you like me to post it? Screw that, just go Google it.
Or, as was famously said by someone whose name escapes me, the primary job of the Veep is to inquire daily as to the health of the President.
Check the 12th Amendment. Page 40 in the Penguin pocket version.
the vp is the presiding officer of the senate and only has the authority to break ties in the senate, and take over the Presidency if a tragedy occurs! Palin is way off the mark when she talks about a policy making role for the vp in the senate! Palin should read the constitution!
Actually, V.P.’s throughout history have all sorts of ranges of duties. Some are rivals of the sitting President and end up exclusively attending funerals. Others are taken on for a particular expertise and are given Cabinet level responsibilities in a particular area (economy, defense, etc.). Some (typically lifetime Legislators) serve as go-betweens with Congress. The duties of A Veep are largely determined by the individual.
hold onto yer knickers Gordo..new AP poll shows a changing race:>) It is gonna be a nervous 13 days for you Gordo..the rest of us will just get up and do what we do every day and hope for the best..you tho will be up nights sweating it out:>)
Gordon.
Yes I do know, but historically its been defined by the Pres. and the office holder.
So big deal if she spends $150k on clothes and since when did that money become public property?
So why doesn’t Obama give the $150 to the masses then?
Meant to say,
so why doesn’t Obama give the $150 million he raised to the masses?
The Vice President has no legislative roll in the Senate NONE even if the President says so! the VP’s roll is outlined in the constitution! the vp can do what ever the President wants in the executive branch but Palin saying that the VP is the leader of the Senate and can make policy with sitting Senators is way off the mark a 5th grader should know better!
Paulie go and look at the big 10 battleground polls I ain’t sweatin it’s the POWELL BOUNCE Obama up by 10 in Indiana up by 19 in Michigan. Please spare me your babble about being undecided and blah blah blah! You’re in Obama/Biden country!
just like a 5th gradah knows that Rosie was not president in 1929 Gordo..at least the 5th gradah knew..
Love listening to Gordo, one of millions who have little of their own ideas rattling about to ramble on about ramble on about how smart a woman isn’t who is one of 50 in this country that has actually been doing something:>)
I am able to stand on mi own Gordo..you need the crutch:>)Every post you make drips of this fact:>)
Every post you make is all about mi, enjoy yourself!
You guys are some of the most boring fuckers I’ve ever encountered online. Really.
Mr. Monroe, it’s not a big deal. Unless you consider violations of SEC. 313 and/or Sec. 323 of the McCain-Feingold Act to be a big deal.

Paulie, what is this “:>)“? It makes reading anything you type nearly impossible.
Wrong Gordon. Every citizen of the U.S. could be said to have a role in Congress. It’s the purpose of Congress. The V.P.’s who have recently held the Office have had differing levels of access, but ALL of them had a role.
Separation of power, checks and balances the Constitution is clear about the roll of the VP and the roll or authority of the President and congress and the people! Come on get with it lincoln!
before I start drinking after 6PM, I can be an incredible bore..this is why I drink Buckpaxton
if it was fun stuff beating back the forces of evil BP everyone would be doing it..BTW have you evah listened to one of your podcasts:>) oops sorry for smiling.
Please start drinking earlier or don’t stop or turn off the computer, write your drivel out long hand and read it out loud. Gordon, please feel free to do the same.
And yes I listen to every one, it’s hard to record stuff and not listen, the anatomy of the human ear being what it is. If you’re not happy with the product we’re definitely on the right track, feel free to stick with the Peter Blute show. ;>)
Gee whiz, a bunch of Liberal hipsters talking about themselves and their pet causes? Who could resist it?
Just kidding. I’ve only successfully listened to two of the pod-casts and they’re not that bad. But, having read the posts/newspaper articles/editorials etc. that make up the bulk of the show it’s too “by rote’ for regular listening.
Gordon, I hate to be a grammar Nazi, but much like “principle”, “role” has a very different and distinct etymology and definition from it’s alternative “roll”. You can’t pretend to be making sense when the key word of your thesis is misspelled.
Slow down, take a breath, curse your old Teachers, and educate yourself in your native language.
I mighta had a problem with grammar but looks like you weren’t paying attention in History class? we’re way off topic now! Obama/Biden for good grammar!
Just vote for the two tools, but don’t try to dumb the rest of us down so that we’ll agree with you. Personally, I think I’d shoot myself if my candidate was endorsed by Hamas. For the good of the world as well as to ensure that I died an American.

Gee whiz, a Third World candidate whose thieving Third World supporters use Third World brutality to get their point across, who’d a thunk it?
All of you Obama slaves should just go pitch a tent in GBV and see what it’s like to be a slob dependent on the Government for your health, home, and security. Why wait for the election? The Government is already your caretaker.
lincoln.
1. Thats not what a knife wound looks like
2. She refused medical care
3. THE B IS BACKWARDS (anyone have a mirror?)

You will always have my permission to be a dick on this website, but please don’t be a dick AND promote white trash racist assholes.
My wife and I were thinking the same thing when I showed her the pic last night. I was trying to remember Morton Downey’s name when I posted.
As for racist assholes, did you hear about the McCain bus taking a couple bullets the other day?
were the bullets black?

These are the guys who (supposedly) were the most accurate in the 2004 elections.
Keepin’ hope alive!
Actually, they were brown and smelled of chiles.
