$50000 to look good, one responsible individual could easily get away looking the greatest with only $2000 - $3000 per dress up, to fit the image of a first man or first lady…….
So, my pal Risus, she is a F ELITIST………………………….and that is what the American people should pay attention too………………Not the Bull sh!t right wing spin for three quarters of Palin’s speech….That is what the American people should pay close attention too…….

There are lots of people on here I disagree with as much or more than I disagree with you......but I manage to get along with almost all of them, and I actually like a bunch of them.

What proves your lack of intellectual depth is the fact that you seem incapable of simple debate without insult. You attack personally with no reason.....you started this entire exchange of insults by calling me a half-wit.....hmmmmmmm

You don't just fight back, you start it every time.

Not smart.

Why don't you try behaving as if you had half a brain? Them maybe one could actually take you seriously.

Colpy, dear old Colpy, if you have an argument with someone on here and they don't agree with you, tell me you don't treat them like children in a class room, please if your gonna take the high road have a leg to stand on. I won't be patronized nor should anybody else on here so if you can't take a little bloody nose don't dish it out.

Class dismissed.

Btw, you and I are closer on issues than you think and I commend you on being the only con I know who sees that Bush has pissed on the U.S. constitution. A document meant to protect people from the government and not the government from the people.

Which is why I find it odd that you would support the same party that made this mess and believe they are the ones to fix it.

Guilty, to a degree.

However, I don't resort to initiating name-calling as a rule..........

I know we agree on a number of things.

And you still couldn't give me a bloody nose in a month of trying.

I already have given you a bloody nose, a regular Joe against an intellectual elite like yourself and you still stumble a fumble over the issue of Palin's hypocrisy.

Unless of course you are getting all internet tough again, telling us all how macho you are.

But, I rarely am correct in political predictions.

So, we'll see.

I'd like to be wrong on this one.

She's a friggin joke. Everybody is relating her to Dick Cheney with her tough attitude and not backing down ways..... now that's a wonderful comparison.... since Dick has done such a great job so far with that attitude.

no..... it's either his way, or no other way. Screw what American Citizens want, I know best, and like Bush, I'll stick to my guns even if I know I'm wrong.

And you think the rest of the US wants to have that kind of mentality for another 4 or more years? Even worse: that attitude with no practical experience where it matters......

If McCain dies from an over powering fart on the toilet, she'll be in power, and chances are she'd round up all the heathens and deport them, execute all the people who had abortions, turn the schools into secondary Christian Churches, give more guns to the gangs to kill each other off and solve her problem with the "Undesirable" and probably nuke any country that doesn't agree with her......

Sounds like a familiar path the US is already on.

She's not that special and all she's doing is saying what everybody wants or expects to hear. I couldn't believe the level of soap opera acting going on in last nights speech.

Oh yeah, and McCain's speech was so wonderful last night.....

protesters sneaking in and holding up their signs, scuffles in the crowd,

and him going on about nothing directly in regards to his plans, and just talked up war.... server your country first, join the army, get sent over to Iraq and get killed in the name of your country.....

.... because you know, the more people sent over to a war and die, the sooner there can be peace....... great logic he has.

Although it did get the republicans all in an uproar and ready to go get blown up, forgetting everything that has happened, how and why it happened.

And of course when a protester got the spotlight, the whole crowd tries to down them out with chants of "USA! USA! USA!" ~ Yeah, that's a great way to address concerns..... drown it out with patriotic banter and ignore the problems.

Even McCain told everybody to just simply ignore the "Static" in the crowd..... yes.... ignore the issues.... ignore fellow citizen's concerns...... great image to send everybody.

You really can't read English, can you? I guess I'm not surprized.

When you accused me of intellectual arrogance, I said "guilty, to a degree", then you accuse me of "pretending to be so innocent" Yep. Okay. Sure. Makes about as much sense as the rest of your post.

You could not, and certainly have not, given me anything close to a bloody nose....in fact, just like in the debate above, you just keep smacking yourself in the face.

I don't have to be internet tough.

Just like every politician on every side makes. It's all theatre, and the less you believe, the better off you'll be.

It's just advertising. Stop believing any of it. It's all hyperbole and twisted partial facts, whether it's these guys or those guys saying it.

No, I don't know it as a fact, which is why there was a parenthetical question.

Really, some people need to take some basic comprehension classes.

Their only say is if the congress is divided equally. They actually don't do much.

just one more conspiracy that will flourish here. But think of the fun you will have with it! Those threads will go on for at least a year!

I like Ms.Palin. She's already shaking up Washington politics. It would do Uncle Sam good for some up home reality to square off with the narcissistic state of America.

I think blame the other guy is not official policy...but it is surely unwritten policy.

sure can pops.

So why are you so surprised when people fight back, like I said if you don't want it, don't be suck a dick.

Awe, isn't that cute, Coply dosen't even know when he's been owned.

OOOOOOOOOOOO, I'm so scared.

Judging from your picture you are more creepy than tough old man.
