What do you not like about McCain?

He is not Ron Paul.

Seriously I suspect he will run the deficit up more, taxes will probably go up, and none of the serious problems that need attention will get it.

I'm going to vote for him though.

You don't base this on his Senate voting record, do you?

No my gut, he wasn't much different from Bush back in 2000.

Maybe he will prove me wrong, maybe he will give America a challange to become energy independent in 10 years...a real Kennedy moon landing moment.

I looked at the pics on the internet in vain. I think the OP should be banned for being a tease.

You get a job like that and it is mission impossible. They can make more money and have less headaches in the private sector if they are good. Why would they work there?

I know, its an ego thing. Thats why I think we should pay them more to try to attract someone with talent. We need like a Jack Welch or a Trump, someone who knows how to run a business, and whats good for business. They would be able to fix our fiscal problems.

You are going to have to extend it to congress too. Better yet, tie their salary to the economy. Deficit? No problem. You owe us $X. We get ahead, you get ahead.

This is why Ron Paul didn't stand a chance

Sorry, Tom, but I have to disagree with your analogy. When racial slurs are leveled at a person, they focus on something they cannot change about themselves - their race. However, people can always change their behaviors and attitudes if they want to. Being called a ***** is more about behavior than anything else.

doesn't the rev Jessie Jackson's son have a bud distributorship? they gave it to him when he threatened to have a boycott as they didn't hire enough blacks.I wish I could get a deal like that. That's better then my Indian friend who gets 70k from the casino every year.

"On one side, you have a ***** who is a lawyer, married to a lawyer, and
on the other, a lawyer who is married to a ***** who is a lawyer.

On the other side, you have a ***** married to a woman with a huge chest who owns a beer distributorship."

Better now

None have the impact that B!tch has. Most of those are political labels. chimp is so silly that it hardly counts.

But name calling is just not kosher.
