So will that mean the same old stalemate? Bills proposed by the Dems and shot down by the Reps?



Or the GOP bills being shot down by the Dems and President. It means they'll have to work together. And if they can't... Obama is to blame. He's the President is he not?


Let us earnestly hope not..........he's got all the traction he's gonna get out of that one.


Seriously? They use it to this day! He was only guaranteed 4 years. You don't know our liberals very well.


Heavens no........I meant it was a point in his favour that he doesn't eat dogs! :smile:



So Obama will be stopped at the border?

He is and if he doesn't get his act together after this election - should America put him back in the big house - then he will shortly find that the country will slide even deeper into an economic depression.

Yeah, I remember it being used endlessly during the convention.

Hell no...........he could put dogs on car tops, eat them for dinner and still find a red carpet waiting for him at the border.

'Cuz it's less confusing and weight-saving to have sliders and pockets

There is the small problem of air. At 30,000 ft. if even one window opened, all passengers would
die of hypoxia.

You probably wouldn't be able to move a sliding window a 40,000 in a pressurised plane..

Most aircraft have a switch on the undercarriage that prevents pressurization on the ground. They
would close that window before takeoff.

Northern Ontario,

When I worked (Paper Machine Operator) on a machine that had as many operating controls as a 7-47 ....I once asked a new superintendent who had joined me in my "shack" (control room) for coffee.....
You have no background in Paper Making...what are your qualifications to be a superintendent????
His answer was...To be able to lead....I only need to know who is the best to do the job, I don't need to know how to do it myself.

So.... what should the qualifications for a "President" an aeronautical engineering degree?????

This is all Liberal smoke...........

So where do they toss their cigarette butts after take-off? :lol:

As far as I know the only written qualifiers are being born in the US and no criminal record. The unwritten ones are the mandatory lobotomy and a willingness to suck dyck for the bankers and big corporations.
