  1. Well what is the perfect news organization that everyone agrees is even and balanced..... There is none. I think they did a pretty balanced article.
  2. Biden / Ryan Love this article about the debate and lack of answers from the Republican "Ryan" Love the facts not put out by the Republican party.
  3. We need to stop the Bush era tax cuts. It is 2% of you paycheck, but someone has to pay and I am willing to pay my fair share. I also want a simpler tax plan. No deductions for anyone, no home no nothing You make x amount, you pay x amount, the more you make the more you pay into the system on a sliding scale No refunds for more then you put in the system (no earned income credits) just because you work does not mean you get a bonus every year for making less then me. Simple easy and fair No incentives for business that are making more then a fair profit, Big oil do
  4. It's all about the skills and interview process. If you don't have them then you will not get hired. So if you do have some skills, work on those a new job needs. The longer you are without a job the harder it is to get one as interviewers look at that as a red flag. P.S. I get job requests on a regular basis and most pay well. I have improved my skills 5 fold over the past 2 years and make a decent buck for my skill set. I also left Georgia which has too many IT folks out of work at the mid level skill set.
  5. Well well if the Bush crew would have done something years ago in stead of padding his pockets and pushing for more oil. He should have pushed for alternitive energy. We already had oil crisis issues with republicans in office....the just want to keep drilling and forget the environment...like the oil spill in the gulf....relaxed rules. Wait that's a democrat thing to make good decisions. Republicans always look out for them self an screw the rest of the world.
  6. I liked the statement from Chipper.. We lost the game on errors and not one bad call. Very true as one bad call does not make a game. But the call was really bad and a bad call can turn the game 180 to the other sides advantage. This was a really bad call. Replay is due for baseball I would like to see umpires held accountable for bad calls as in evaluations and if they stay in the majors or not.
  7. This is over the top awesome.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNJ9umv10EM Take a few minutes and watch it..
  8. Same reason that people should take personal responsibility for the issue at hand an not come up lame excuses like some people do. Put the fork down and get off your ares. Oh and blaming the government for your own issues is just dodging the truth...are you a republican? They do that a lot..... LOL. Sad but true I say blame the lazy parents and lazy kids.
  9. Sounds like a Bush statement. I love election years.... There is so much BS going around that the truth has little bearing on what people say or what scares me what they believe. I just wish there was more truth in the elections and lies were some how truly counted. Then you know which candidate is more honest.
  10. Kids learn from example. Pure simple an a cold hard fact. Their example....their parents. I kind of see obese / fat people as the next target, where as smokers are getting to be hard to complain about. I just want those that have self inflected medical issues forced to pay for those issues and not force me to pay for it. They should payhigher premiums just like smokers. I for one had said it before and will say it again...we need to tax fat foods ...aka a fat tax
  11. Never put in to writing what you can not eat later. Because we all at one point have had to eat our own words. I always chose my words well in a written heated email.
  12. I don't blame Walmart. If you were in the same shoes, I bet you would too. No need to was store space when the supplier is under cutting the price that want you to sell it at and selling to the to the same customers.
  13. Do you take a home owner income tax deduction? If yes, you are part of the 47% (do some reading as this is a big part) The thing that irks me the most is those that get a earned income credit..... Like they need to get a bonus for working and a lot get thousands of dollars and most don't pay a dime in taxes. This is one of the biggest rip offs beside the free cell phone crap.
  14. I still want to see romney's tax returns and what rate he pays taxes. He is all about those making serious money and using the working class to pay for it.
  15. Ah other sites have left the extra words let off. Which I think this site added on to make him more like Obama. I found a few with the " or less" added to the statement and a few without it. Either way I guess the GAO notes 50k as middle class. I guess I am lower middle class then.
  16. If you are living off the government then thank them for keeping you a float. Otherwise you might be on the street. Also read some history on what the government did to get the country back on track. Now if you are living on the government dime. Take the time an educate your self to be a smarter an better educated person. To enable your self to get that job that needs a smarter worker. Or sit on your ass and let other people support you.
  17. According to the government.....50k is middle class. Up to what I don't know...really
  18. And I thought most of you couldn't figure that out. Thanks for saying what we all should be saying. I also think 50-150k is middle class IMO. That's both incomes as a family. But I also think that earned income credit is BS. No one should get more back then you put in the system. It's total BS and if you get 3-5k back because of it...your a slug and feeding on those that pay taxes. I hate that program. [twitter][/twitter]
  19. Get it right or don't say it at all. Obama...zero to 250k Romney 200-250k [q[twitter][/twitter]uote name='dumbestgirlintheworld' timestamp='1347637344' post='3694379'] http://www.ajc.com/a...nd-below/nSBSz/ So, if middle class is $200K (or $250K according to Obama), then that puts me in the lower class. Does this mean that I can start qualifying for social services, such as food stamps?
  20. Learning cure....omg Touch screens will do well, but old school will stumble. A lot... Not too sure yet.. Might do a virtual an play with it again
  21. From what I have read it was a big disappointment to lots of folks. I was looking for a big upgrade, but nothing over the top or close to it. The screen is only 4inches and the few other upgrades did nothing for me in the way of thinking of getting a IPhone. If I was to upgrade I would look at the Note2. It is a huge phone, but it is a mini tablet too. An with getting a bit older the larger phone and screen is what I want.
  22. I was noting the same thing.... Read my sig and it tells it all about the Republican party and those that vote for it. Hard to dispute the cold hard facts.
  23. WTH.... oh lets shorten the school day so kids get a little less education.... We need to make it an 8 hr day and year round. Forget the 2-3 month summer vacations. We pay the teachers for a full year and kids would retain more information if we had less gaps in classes at school . We need smarter kids. The more you know the more money you make <<<< fact The less you know the less money you make and the harder physically you work. (Not 100% true, but I bet over 90% true)
  24. Thank you Pubby, A level headed and honest approach to a sticky situation. God some of the folks on here need to step back and think <<< wait knee jerk reaction and anti Obama, that's the correct and expected response . Geeezzzzeeee
