Flashermac Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 I voted for Al in the presidential primary against Stiff Willie, mainly because he was a VN vet (if a flaky one). But Al sort of went barmy with his global warming crusade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shygye Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 Yep, time to cut VA benefits to balance the budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 I'd much prefer placing a tax on all male US citizens who did not serve in the military. It's about time they did their share. The rest of us gave up a few years of our lives. p.s. And yes the politicians have suggested cutting veterans' benefits. They'll do anything except cut their own pay.

Old Hippie Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 Yep' date=' nobody expected GWB to be the disaster he turned out to be. Compared to bumbling Al Bore, he looked pretty good. [/quote'] He still does, in comparison. HH This may require an OH ruling ... Gay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizardKing Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 'Pretty obvious - they elected Obama as their President, didn't they? So that takes care of the 39% of the smart people. What about the rest? Sad.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USVirgin Posted November 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 If you look at some of the other slides in the link, you have: - 40% of Americans believe health care reform will result in 'death panels.' (A Sarah Palin notion.) - 41% believe Saddam was involved in 9/11 or possessed WMDs. (A Cheney/Bush concept.) - 21% believe Obama is a Muslim (a FOX News talking point.) And of course, it was GWB who said Intelligent Design should be taught alongside Evolution in schools. NONE of the folks who believe the above would have voted for Obama! Then we have the 50% that don't know Judaism is older than Christianity or Islam. Could be bi-partisan, but we know most Jews are Dems, and I don't think THEY'D get that one wrong. Finally, those who believe in witchcraft. Bi-partisan, for sure, but I can't help thinking of Christine O'Donnell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
