The biggest problem with taxes is that “non paycheck” earners can cheat the system so easily.

TTFN, bloggers, I love and respect you all, even you that I disagree with a little. I really like the breadth of the people here, you are all sharp and interestng, with a great sense of humor, common sense, and varied interests.

Don’t you ever change; have a great day, and hasta manana, gentes!

Ivan,

I hadn’t heard that quote about Franken. Funny! I’ll have to think about it, though. I love Franken for that.

mel7190,

Yeah, they still deny that they sided with Al Qaeda but you can catch them in it, because they STILL will tell you that Clinton bombed an aspirin factory.

Then you say, “But American intelligence said it was a weapons factory. Al Qaeda said it was an aspirin factory. Whose side are you on?”

They fall for this one.

Scott, Al Franken had a good point about how the Democrats love their country like a parent cares about a teenager, while Republicans love their country like a little girl loves her mommy..

Feh, only honest-to-god sharp cheddar will do on my grilled cheese.

I need a bigger stock pot; I made cheese once a couple years ago, white cheddar aged 6 months, it was easy (though my pot was barely big enough), and it was SOOOO GOOOOOD.

480 I’ve been listening for that point on radio and tv and haven’t heard it brought up yet. Of course, right-wingers won’t bring it up because they don’t remember anything Fox didn’t say yesterday…

#478, cue the Kelsey Grammer “Irritable Bowel Syndrome” spot.

Preferably redone with Jim’s voice, since he does a MUCH better Kelsey Grammer than whoever did that one.

I was an Obama supporter, and I despised Bush. However, I will call anyone out on doing the wrong thing…I don’t care who they are. The constitution is paramount to me.

mel7190,

Good point! I had forgotten that the conservatives were DEADSET against us being involved in Somalia.

I also like to remind my conservative friends that they sided with Al Qaeda when Clinton bombed them.

They did, they really did! You can Google it.

US intellegence said it was a weapons factory. Al Qaelda said it was an aspirin factory. The conservatives sided with Al Qaeda.

471 I agree. I know we have big problems, but I think a Prez pissing on the Constitution is a big problem, too.

#473, when it comes to what his DoJ argues in court, the buck stops with Obama.

I can’t help but politely smile and applaud at the teabaggers like a proud parent cheering for their 4-year old in the school play… They try so very hard…

They don’t understand what they’re doing, but they try…

#438: I’m pinning it on him because he is making the argument in court papers that the people held there have no habeas rights, exactly as Bush did with Gitmo. Obama’s justice department made that argument last Friday. I know Obama didn’t create it, but adopting Bush’s argument is just as bad when he simply could have not argued that.

#463, I think that the trend is irreversible. I think what will happen is that the Dem party will split into a corporatist and populist wing within the next decade, and the Republican party will become spoilers like the Greens do for the Dems.
