She admitted that she signed the form that states that she was agreeing to support the party nominee, but she claims she only did so, because she was sure that Hillary was going to be the nominee. She signed that form at the beginning of May.

She revealed that the McCain camp was in touch within minutes after Hillary conceded.
She claims thats it is undemocratic for the party to take away her delegates status just because she signed a pledge to support the Democratic nominee, and is instead supporting the Republican nominee.

And I went to Vegas and put my money down at the roulette table, sure that my number would come up. When it didn't, I wanted my money back. I made a big fuss and then they threw me out of the casino. How unfair of them!

Because it was a scheme designed by those who benefit from it to benefit those who designed it.

From the beginning.

BS debt

How fitting.

The question is: Should government legislate the terms of CEO contracts, or, for that matter, athletes' contracts? My answer: No.

In general, I would agree. However, if the company is a quasi-governmental one as are both Freddie and Fannie, and as in this case, require taxpayer funded bailouts, then the answer should be yes. Athletes have nothing do with it.

Emphatically.

And, if there is not one public spirited, responsible, competent executive willing to take the position, even with a decent performance bonus for an outstanding job, then our society, and corporate world, are in far worse shape than we imagine.

Fine. You're out.

Goodbye.

Don't forget to vote for Nader. Again. A lot of good that'll do.

Will you please stop being logical. It's going to get John McCain angry. You won't like him when he's angry.

An excellent post with much to ruminate about in it. everyone agrees that Obama is smart, but I think he may be even smarter and more subtle than he is given credit for.

He has run an incredible campaign so far, the proof being in where he is now. I don't see him as about to screw it up. I agree, I do not see him as duplicitous when you actually investigate his positions and his statements. He is, however, a politician, and a damn good one at that. Part of being a politician, probably like part of being a therapist or a good mediator, is having people see in you what they want.

I don't often say this about anybody, and with good reason, but I think Obama may be smarter than I am. I am sure he is a better politician.

Therefore, I will withhold judgment until further events unfold. And, yes, I will vote for him.

Lanny Davis.

I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

You are all trolls!

I alone have the true truth and anyone who disagrees with me should be banned. Banned, I tell you.

At least that's what I'd say but I'm too weak.
