		<description>Yeah, the Republicans need to move more to the right, learn to goose-step, and pick off progressives from a helicopter.
President Palin could appoint Huckabee as Minister of Morality and he could &lt;em&gt;modify&lt;/em&gt; the Constitution.</description>

		<description>16 MissHusseinMolly said:
I have heard that the situation is much the same for groceries. Poorer neighborhoods generally have fewer grocery stores and pharmacies,

The situation is worse.  Inner city &quot;stores&quot; are unlikely to carry fresh produce but instead stock the non-perishable items of chips and soda (and beer),  Even semi-healthy canned vegetables are much, much likely to be available.

So if you don&#039;t have a car, no way can you get a health meal at any price.</description>

May an asteroid the size of a full grown African elephant crash their little party. I will believe in a supreme being if it happens.

October 29th, 2008 at 11:28 am&lt;/i&gt;
_______

Actually, an asteroid the size of an African elephant (3.6 meters in diameter) would break up into fragments at about 135,000 feet, with most smaller fragments failing to reach the Earth&#039;s surface and none of the larger fragments enough impact velocity to form a crater.

In order to have any real meaningful effect on the future of the Republican party, you&#039;d need an iron-based asteroid about the size of a blue whale (33.5 meters in diameter).  This, assuming a 45-degree angle of impact, would produce an earthquake equivalent to 4.9 on the Richter scale, create an air blast that would collapse most structures in a two-mile radius, and leave an impact crater 619 feet deep and 2,900 feet across.

		<description>It baffles me that McIIIrd would still be pallin around with the thoroughly debunked Sam the laborer who pretends to be a plumber, owes back taxes, had his driver&#039;s license revoked in AZ, ...http://suzieqq.wordpress.com/2008/10/18/joe-the-plumber-arizona-driver-license-suspended/
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wurzelbacher, who lived in Mesa in 2000 and had an Arizona driver’s license, had his driver’s license suspended by the Arizona Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division on May 4, 2000, following a nonpayment of a court-imposed fine for civil traffic violations, according to court records.

America’s new political icon, who owes nearly $1,200 in back taxes, according to public records, still owes more than $700 to the Mesa court system.

Records show he was cited for failure to stop at a red light and for failure to provide proof of insurance on Feb. 9, 2000, in a black Dodge truck at the intersection of Dobson and Baseline roads in Mesa.

After failing to pay his original fine of $627.50 issued in March 2000, his license was suspended and the fine was handed over to a collection agency along with a 16 percent surcharge. The now-resident of Holland, Ohio, still owes $727.90 to the Mesa Municipal Court, according to court records.

Nevertheless, Wurzelbacher’s driver’s license is still valid in Ohio, according to the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles, and was renewed as recently as May 2005. Ohio law requires a license to be renewed every four years, meaning Wurzelbacher likely obtained an Ohio license in 2001, one year after having his Arizona license suspended.

With a suspended license in one state, it should not be possible to get a new license in another, said Cydney DeModica, spokeswoman for the Arizona MVD.

The only way “Joe the Plumber” could have slipped through the cracks is a clerical error in which his driving records were not entered into the Problem Driver Pointer System, the national database of information about people with a checkered driving past, said Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles spokeswoman Lindsay Komlanc.

Komlanc added if the Ohio BMV were to receive the information, appropriate action could be taken, including suspension of his Ohio license.

I’ve seen worse from forwarded e-mails featuring cute kitty and cute puppy pictures acquaintances insist on sending me.&lt;/em&gt;

Yeah, but who wants to see &quot;cute&quot; from a mass murderer?</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;There’s virtually a whole floor in the Kunst-Historiches Musee in Vienna devoted to him and his paintings. There must be 20 or more. I spent almost a whole morning there one day.&lt;/em&gt;

Yes, yes, me too&#039;s.  The morning I spent in that space, an instructor was giving a painting-by-painting lecture. Fabulous.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;This is the lasting legacy of the republicans. Sadly they have been very sucessful in thier push to move the courts to the right.

Just like all the other things they have done to our country, it is not a good thing for Americans.
October 29th, 2008 at 10:43 am&lt;/i&gt;

It&#039;ll be 40 years before all the damage done by the Busheviks these last 8 years passes through the civic cloaca and is finally deposited in the shit-pile of history.

Obama, if/when, may get to nominate 3 SCOTUS appointments, but they won&#039;t turn the tide. First, he&#039;s no &quot;progressive.&quot; Shit, he&#039;s not even a &quot;liberal,&quot; so he&#039;ll NEVER nominate any REAL liberals to counteract the appalling fascistic tendencies of the Opus Dei court (the mackerel-snapper contingent: Roberts, Scalito, Unca Thomas and mini-Meese). We&#039;ll never see the likes of Brennan, or Douglas, Black, or Marshall in the High COurt again, ever...
And, even if he did, they&#039;d never get Senate approval. Even with a 59 or 60 vote Dim senate, there are at least 10 doubtful (&quot;impossible&quot;) DINO votes: the Nelsons, Carper, Baucus, Landrieu, Salazar, Rockefeller, Byrd, and (of course) &quot;Loserman.&quot;</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Stevens’s attorney has requested an investigation into “numerous, serious constitutional violations” by government prosecutors, alleging that his trial was “irretrievably tainted by the prosecution team’s zeal to convict a high-profile but innocent defendant.”&lt;/em&gt;

		<description>I listened to Sarah Palin so called &#039;Energy Speech&#039; she gave. She repeatedly accused countries that we are buying oil from are giving our money to terrosits. 
This is a big lie, in fact the opposite is happening. 
Deputy Secretary of US Treaury Robert Kimmitt is now visiting many Arab States soliciting money to help in our financial crisis. 
These Arab coutries have trillions invested in US companies.
In this crisis we have, they lost billions of dollars as a result due to our banking,housing and credit crisis.

Sarah Palin simply needs to educate herself.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;em&gt;Recently convicted Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK) “is asking the Justice Department to investigate the conduct of federal prosecutors” who prosecuted him. Stevens’s attorney has requested an investigation into “numerous, serious constitutional violations” by government prosecutors, alleging that his trial was “irretrievably tainted by the prosecution team’s zeal to convict a high-profile but innocent defendant.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;


The &quot;Honorable&quot; Senator will next demand an investigation of the Judge and all Jury members.  They had to all be in on it. . . after all, they all wanted to convict a high-profile crook, ops, defendant.</description>
