Some skinny black guy and an old white guy. The white guy got away but the black guy, despite successfully evading the fat plumber, ended up getting 4 years in the big house for possession of over 270 Electoral Votes.

Re: [Ghetto] The Future of America
Likely. Always pinning the black man with possession.LaughLaugh

It is pretty funny how our attention for over one hundred years was on the ghetto, while they snuck Obama in the back door of the white house....or should I say, Da Crib.

Not sure which one actually wonUnsure

Re: [Ghetto] The Future of America
On the plus side, both of them are
better public speakers than Bush jr.
Hence I am now less embarrassed
to be an American.

On the down side, sadly, neither of
those guys has a fucking clue about
how to fix the health care problems!

Re: [Ghetto] The Future of America
I think this guy won.

Still better than Sarah "I believe dinosaurs and humans lived together" Palin

Have you read The Cure? I'd be curious for your opinion on it. If you haven't read it, but you've got time to do so, I can send you my copy.
Shortcut
To: TomAiello RE: The Cure
No, I have not read it.

Sure bro, if you want to send it my way
that would be cool. I will read it over
and hopefully return it in person on my
next visit to the Perrine.

PM me if you need my address.

Re: [TomAiello] The Future of America
another option...

Amazon
Shortcut
Re: [wwarped] The Future of America
I do love getting used books on Amazon but

Used $8.25 plus $3.99 shipping = $12.24

Versus $2 media mail to borrow it from Tom A.

I think I will still with Plan B Wink

Re: [Ghetto] The Future of America
Better than a football game this contest was. the boulder scene was awesome. people were crying last night, pearl street was crazy.

Remember, Remember, the Fifth of November. well. at least the much less cool and probably no 'change' at all American version. at least some crazy creationist slut is not getting to be president. this was the first election I participated in, and had Palin not been a factor, I would have continued to ignore it.

Re: [Ghetto] The Future of America
I read something that really rang true to me. "It's possible no republican could have won."

I almost agree with it, but I would have been faaaaaar more willing to vote McCain had the republican chosen a real running mate, instead of just trying to catch the female vote with Palin.

Honestly, was she the best person out of all others? Seemed like a move soley to get the presidency.

And when they asked McCain about what middle class was, he answered "Anyone who makes under 2 million a year." WTF?

He seemed way out of touch with me.

Plan B? isn't Tom A.'s help Plan A? Tongue

actually, I provided the link for others as well.
or you could send Tom's copy on a journey around the country where everyone adds something to it... maybe add pictures of it BASE jumping. maybe a picture of it hiding from a book burning ceremony, etc. but that might slow down any discussion of it's contents.

I'll bet a lot of our previous, more revered presidents had similar blunders. They didn't have CNN, Fox News, and You Tube around to make it public everytime they farted. I am not defending the intelligence of Oboma, Bush, or Mccain, but suggesting that most of us would look like morons if all of our dumb moments were captured on tape and replayed a few million times.

Re: [hikeat] The Future of America
Very true.

I can't WAIT for the elections in 2048 when all of the candidates are from my generation and when my opponent in the presidential race starts digging for dirt on me and comes across videos of ShotSki's in the holiday inn, Synchronized Gay jumps with that emo kid 'stryker' from twin falls, and that oh-so-embarrassing sex tape that I tried so hard to destroy involving Vid666 and an empty vodka bottle.

Of course I'll still win the election, because I'll have the foresight to see that those kinds of things are what rake in the votes from my generation, and the following generation of voters will only be even more demented than my own..

Ghetto for Prez '48! Cool

You're right.... although I believe that the overall intelligence of the Presidents has decreased so in turn there are more fuck ups. Both of them don't know what the hell comes out of their mouth because they are relying on written speeches dictated to them through earpieces and teleprompters among other things. They have little to nothing to do with the speeches and ideas they talk about.
As I said before... puppets.
