  1. Has anyone called dibs on blaming this on Obama yet? Am I late to the party?!?!

    I think it would be the past couple presidents from what I can tell. GW surely did a good job of starting us down this road, now Obama is twisting the throttle to get us further, faster!

  2. Your second link answered your first question.

    Our future economic policy is "print more worthless money". The dollar is shit these days on the world market in terms of buying power.

    In the mid 90's the company I worked for imported machinery from Italy and German. At that point in time I could buy 1.83 DM for a dollar. Things were great - there were 30 people working there making good money. Soon after, Germany went to the Euro and now I could buy 1.00 Euro for a dollar. Problem is, my pricing ended up being based on 1.00 DM = 1.00 Euro also. My company's buying power was cut in half. Its even worse today - right now your dollar only gets you .69 Euros. I got out in 2000 when the getting was good. There are currently 9 people working for that company now.

    Its only gonna get worse - wait till we start paying for health care for everyone!

    Just wow! That's some drastic change there!

    I hear the presses are running as fast as they can at the US mint..... THAT will make things better!

    One of my favorite quotes (not sure of the source, I think I heard it from our pastor) "money does not fix a money problem." Give someone with a spending problem more money, and they will spend more money!

  3. Aha! That's it! I'm not delusional after all! :lol:

    Thanks for clearing that up! So, you went past that gas station/C-store that didn't have a working bathroom in Centerburg that we stopped at on that poker run then? Ya know, the one that had the rain cloud over it?

  4. passed a barn the other day on our ride on saturday that had elect ron paul on it in huge letter :lol:

    Where is said barn? I seem to remember something like that recently, just don't remember where...

    (Or I may just be delusional, and have never seen such a thing, and just think I did?)

  5. With all the rep Todd is dishing out, an astute observer might choose to give him a title that would provide a succinct synopsis of his repping activities. By maybe taking a shortened prefix form of the word 'negative' and adding the suffix '-er' which would designate a person or thing with some unique characteristic or circumstance. Said title for Todd, would provide a level of irony to this thread.

    If ya'll think I'm gonna say it - you're crazy.

    Holy cow man! :lol: :lol:

    I just can't stop :lol:

    :lol:

    (I'd rep ya for that, but you have enough already!)

  6. HA!! This is his neg rep for my "Well said" post:

    "You wouldn't know well said if someone hit you on the head with it T43"

    This guy is great!!!! He doesn't use rep as a weapon...but is clearly dishing it out. LOL. And for the record, I don't neg rep people. I think I've done it maybe once or twice for someone that was COMPLETELY out of pocket and needed to be banned.

    Hi Todd!! I love you too.

    I think I'll go see what kind of rep I've gotten, which I rarely pay much attention to. Honest!

  7. What idea is that? That JRMiii is a shitbag? Or that Chickon2 is a racist? Or that once again, you have nothing of value to add to the discussion?

    Oh....one more thing....

    Post all you want - this is my LAST post in this thread. Have fun...

    Aww... At least I don't think that of someone that I don't particularly agree with. I happen to thing they are good people that happen to have views the are different than mine! It's all good in my book!

    Glad to see I could piss you off enough to make such comments to someone that has similar values (but is a bit more flexible) as you! I think someone needs to grow up and be open to discussion without all the name calling, or whatever it is that you call what YOU are doing.

    We'll see if this IS your last post.....

  8. So she's an equal opportunity FUKALLYALL. I can't be mad at her for that LOL

    Ya know, I have to agree with ya there!

    This is another example of what you were talking about on how the media works! I'm disappointed that she's not getting much media attention now. She's not getting equal opportunity media coverage, so it seems!

  9. I guess all the hatred that people expressed towards G.W. Bush has made it ok to bash whatever President is in office, and disrespect them. The Obama hater's say "But the Bush haters did it!!!"

    I'm about as far from agreeing with Obama, I voted against him (that's right, not FOR McCain, but AGAINST Obama) but I do have respect for the office. That's why I'm not say let's get him out, or anyting like that, let him have his time, and vote him out in a few years. I just hope and pray that he doesn't mess things up too bad, the past few Presidents have done a good enough job of that!
