Wonkette Is Cheating

Time to file a compaint with Weblog?

How good can wonkette be if they have to win by cheating? I guess if they don’t mind cheating for their boy, a weblog award is small potatoes. I liked the original wonkette…but the new owner version seems to be packed with ‘morans’. And then there’s welikeitintherumpboaster over there begging for votes. LOL!! Pathetic, really.

***** MOUNTAINSONG**********

Mountainsong when you get a chance could you please go and read # 107 TerryDo 01.06.09 at 11:20 am on our NEW EAR! Private blog.

Thanks. And leave a message if you are able to comply….

I see what you mean about cake wrecks, I should send her some of mine. My favorite turned out well, It was 3 tiers with pengins in a pool of water with seals and an igloo on top. Took 3 weeks to make and my hands were purple for weeks from the black food coloring of about 15 penguins.

roasts were left out for too long…rancid and crawling with maggots.

Thank you Murphy!!! You’re the greatest! I think I have that crud too, on4all. But I feel better after reading this post. I just love Nice Deb and the Cake Wrecks blog!

Good morning PUMAs – loved the cake site – sent it to my sister(she used to collect dragons) – tried to vote again but have to wait – advised me that 24 hrs has not passed yet –

I sent some links to the action center that I had regarding ACORN, etc. – maybe Trish can use them.

Murphy – is Pumasphere like Just Say No Deal or is there more? I signed up but not sure what I signed up for…………

sue66
Thanks! Got link?

joannathemaid is quite the web artist! I love it too.

I hope wonkette gets their assettes handed to them for cheating!

DWP, did you hear from my group leader?

I’m glad I’m old, and sometimes I’m even grateful for my medical issue. I couldn’t abide living too much longer in a culture of lying and cheating, and it’s one of the things I’ll be glad to leave behind.

Keep voting, legally… they might be disqualified or the numbers adjusted if weblog figure out what is going on. I

HP BOston, I think I’d rather protest… speaking out is louder than silence. I’m wondering if Weblog measures in such a way that it can deterine the incongruous peaking in relationship to timeframes.

Wonkaucus fraud.

I like the logo too. But I think there should be a round version too! (sphere…) Would work well on buttons too.

bqueen:
I agree. I think there should be one with the sphere spinning. I will send another one to Murphy sometime this week.

Just popping in and out… going to MacWorld….

I like the spherical idea for buttons, but prefer the square logo. Square appears more solid and grounded.

Actually, visually I prefer square buttons to round ones.

dances. Hm. I think I like round better because square has 4 dangerous corners and knowing me I will definitely find a way to get stabbed by one!

good idea…
and Pumas should probably read The Confluence, including comments, for an explanation of how losers win (i.e. obama, wankitte, and the roastourrumps boys).

i think i like squares better too.

I like the spherical idea for buttons, but prefer the square logo. Square appears more solid and grounded.

————————————-
Mmm Dances I never pegged you for a SQUARE!

PS: They are sooooooooo jealous of us !!!!!!!!

Go PUMA’S !!

Anyone have the contact info for the weblog awards??

Okay I voted again But it looks like we will be defeated from the cheaters blitz! Do they have any idea how obvious, or do they not care and this is a form of sabotage?
So we need to wait to vote again in 24 hours? Will they need a new page for the cheaters?

Mmm Dances I never pegged you for a SQUARE!
—————
Then you haven’t been paying attention!

———————————–
Oh yes I have!

tag…thank you.

HP
LOL!!!

They really might get disqualified. The “judges” are paying attention to it all and they have previous contests as precedent and can spot wonkette bogus outlier in a heartbeat.

Then all they need to do is go to wonkette…see that there are aren’t nearly as many comments as they expected, along with at least four “how to cheat/ I am cheating” posts…

stupid.

lolol…

kat
have you sent thescreenshots to
awards (at) weblogawards.org

kat in your hat 01.06.09 at 1:43 pm [edit]
Dances, I think quite a few people did hours ago.
——————
Good!!
I hate freakin cheaters / liars

Kat — yep. They’re going to get caught. The award admins know about the cheating.
——————–
When they do get caught we should publicize loud and clear.
I’m worried that the more we point out the reasons they cheating is obvious, the more they will tunnel in and change their cheating strategy.

Uppity just posted this:

“Uppity Woman, on January 6th, 2009 at 1:45 PM Said:
If you would like to protest the cheating at one of the poll sites

Write to awards@weblogawards.org

I won’t post the cheating instructions because we all know it will give other obamazoids ideas. I am told that Weblog is aware though. By now it might be disabled….”

http://uppitywoman08.wordpress.com/

I still have to wait to vote all over again. I can’t remember exactly when I last voted.

*sigh*

Why can’t people just do things the right way? Isn’t the blog owner ashamed at all? Isn’t he pissed off at his “fans” for making a mockery out his blog? Doesn’t he know?? Maybe he should pull out before all the other competing blogs in contest find out about it, before his online reputation is destroyed.

seriously.

Kat,
But, are online advertisers paying attention to their cheating? Probably not. If Wankoffs (© kat in your hat) win, at any cost, their impression value goes up and advertisers will be attracted to their site as a potent advertising venue. $$$

“they aren’t just cheaters they are really DUMB cheaters.”

webawards or obama’s disciples?
Weblog Awards should present a Web Warts award…. Wankoffs win, hands down.

oh shoot!! I forgot to go to work. ciao for niao

TerryDo 01.06.09 at 11:25 am Yes, ok, I’ve read your post…’now I am thinking; will respond when it’s more clear in my head.

prplvette85 #47: wedding rings….bawwwwww……fk circles

And a chastity belt has yet another form. Doesn’t mean you need to jump into one!

Circus animals are made to jump through flaming hoops – PEOPLE have a choice!

Don’t blame choosing a “wedding ring” on it’s beautiful round form!!

• Cirque du Soleil
• Tiananmen Square

(seriously, I do like the Pumas getting up and moving with some level ground under their feet!)

oh, I expected the grumproast boyz and their little female house slaves to be pasting stuff from the threads here, but nothing in the last day. Their comments are oddly unpopulated too. A few days ago they were talking about how Murphy won’t allow insults, but I doubt they took it to heart. If they are busy using their caucus fraud skills to rig a vote, that would explain everything. Why waste your time with insults when you can cheat on something.

What’s up ith ‘rumproast’? Are they a bunch of teenage boys who can’t get laid, and this is the best alternative they were able to think of?

marie #80, murph 92:

yeah – great link!

Rubin’s money went to a joint Obama-DNC fund ($28,500),

How do they consider that “separate” from Obi’s campaign funds??????????
can anyone explain?

There are millions in That One’s campaign funds that are not accounted for (FEC Prowl) and isn’t there also the roll-over scam? Money that is left over rolls into the DNC funds if the DNC is in Chicago and Obie is the head of the DNC when ’selected’ over Hillary???????????????

Please sign the petition to have the ERA passed.
The petition is posted on the 4ERA website.

Please pass it on……….

Oh, good heavens yes, publishing anything that makes it easier to cheat, when we know the Toasted Tush boyz read this, is like giving a lock pick set to a burglar.

DancesWithPumas 01.06.09 at 2:17 pm

Wasn’t me that posted it – I only asked a little question……..

mountainsong, I don’t think the rumproast is teenage boys, although they sound like it. When they are willing to disclose any information–and people like that do lie–they claim to be in their 40’s and working good jobs. People who talk like that are usually insecure. They think they will look taller if they can dig a hole under someone else.

Also if you read Alinsky or Eric Hofer, one of the ways to unite people is to have (or invent) a common enemy. So the right wing likes to raise the Moslem scare (it used to be The Commies) and the Obots have their raaaaacists. It’s a mantra they can chant without having to think. And while they are chanting they don’t notice that their leaders aren’t helping them and don’t have any new ideas that they don’t cut and paste from someone else’s website. The hatred of some in the Arab world towards Israel (and it’s not 100%–more like 3% where I lived) was intentionally cultivated by the CIA back in the days when Nasser was president of Egypt in order to give stability to countries like Syria.

mountainsong 01.06.09 at 2:52 pm

Kewl!!! It works!! So I can vote on one in the moring and one in the afternoon.
I’m so sick of hearing about Oblowssmokeupasses~~~
Back to Rachel and Mariah and the forum job….. There’s always 2 ways to do something, (1) quick and half-assed) or(2) researched and thorough. Somebody pick one for me…. lol
*********************

Quick and Thorough!

Nijma 01.06.09 at 2:53 pm So, besides ‘ignorance’ our ‘common enemy is:……..

I am a PUMA, a liberal, a quasi Dem, and I say it proudly! F*ck you, Wonkettes!

I just swung by Drudge and I always find the headline quotes from Obama to be silly, like:

“Obama says trillion-dollar deficits may last years…”

Uh, Yeah…no crap.

Other ones will be like this: “Obama says things will get worse before they get better.” or “Obama says the economy is in bad shape.” or “Obama says he’s concerned about USA’s financial status.” Yeah, uh huh! No Crap!

*groan*

Pumas why waste your time, your precious energy and disturb your psyche with such Wonkettes?
Whenever the urge comes upon your to strict out, just go and reread Murphy’s post, she said it all so perfectly!

lolol…

Mountain song, our common enemy is …the BOTS, the stupid adolescent #*%@!? obots.
Must. fight. hate.

Don’t we all have something to do ? Puma-wise? Sitting around bitching about Blowshisown or how messed up it all is, is strating to feel like watching grass grow.

Nijma 01.06.09 at 3:40 pm That’s so wierd of me~~~I never have any interacton with the Bots. They are not a bother to me and if they were, I’d soon be a other to THEM! I don’t go where they are, even, unless they are here. I rarely even visit other blogs besides here. Between this and my life, I’m busy.

mountainsong:
I don’t pay attention to or go to any of those places either. It’s a smart move to stay away from them…they are sad and mean-spirited, and completely obsessed with pumas. It’s really weird and sad. We are just regular people, not soon-to-be leader of free world oblow. Pumas sometimes focus on next president of our country. They focus their blog on another blog…of strangers and average everyday people. It’s weird and sad.

Anyway, I am going to head out and come back a bit later.

Oh and here:
@ 118
obama did 10 puny but oh-so-masculine pull ups at the gym this morning, afterward we watched his sun glinting wet glistening man boobs sway and jostle as he ran unto the shore. the salt water breeze of the coast wafted his slightly dead starfish stench toward us on the beach. we breathed in the Ofoulness with reverence as we watched him seductively pick his nose with his middle finger. Then we all exploded in our pants.

you so afraid your boot might let go, that you forget you don’t have any pants on, then when you’re rescued, you know you were just hanging there for 15 minutes with no pants on!

Joanna the Maid has a picuture on her blogsite of the Joan of Arc statue in the quarter that I sent her when it snowed..It is on Dec 20 I think…she is lovely..this statue!

So I have stopped reading the NYT, WaPo, CNN, etc blogs…a shame because I really should keep up on the mainstream news.

More good news in my book.
Everybody wants to know, “Don’t you wish BO success as the new POTUS?” I wish our COUNTRY success. We don’t need him. He has nothing to contribute. I wish him a fast trip back to the swamp!

I wish him zero success and i am not worry about my own safety as my family will take care of itself. I wish him as much trouble and hardship one could possibly wish upon someone else.
Call me a hater but that is my opinion on the matter.

Ok, I am really going now, for sure.//

Hexagon? Structually efficient and attractive (honeycomb and airless tires: http://www.wisconsinidea.wisc.edu/profiles/Osswald/

The patent pending Resilient design relies on a precise pattern of six-sided cells that are arranged, like a honeycomb, in a way that best mimics the “ride feel” of pneumatic tires. The honeycomb geometry also does a great job of reducing noise levels and reducing heat generated during usage – two common problems with past applications. “We definitely brainstormed,” says Foltz. “We wanted to create more of a matrix of cells within the tire, and it seemed kind of natural to go with the honeycomb’s hexagon shape. We tried some other shapes, such as diamond shapes, and they didn’t perform as well.”

err: that would be “structurally”, not “structually”, ekshully.

yeah bqueen, and peeps taking pics. ouch!

Drudge is so totaly in the tank.

BillieJo 01.06.09 at 4:35 pm
…
Biden called Panetta a “strong figure” for the CIA who would “take it on a new path.”

Yup, a new path of inexperience that leads into the dumper like his fearless, inexperienced leader, That One!//
==========
Tell it, sister! This kind of off-the-wall selection is Omposter ‘flashing’ us with his real agenda … are we turned on yet?

Is it possible that when this administration is done that joe will be the least talked about vice president every.

Hav eyou heard about obot wanting new presidential limos even though Bush received new models in 2007. Clinton got new models in 1993 and bush got a new one in 2001 and than again in 2006 but beings Bush got a new one in 2006 and you will notice both clinton and bush both used the limos as long as possible to not waste money. But the King himself insists of trashing a new 2006 model for a “more modern” limo.
Let them eat cake……….

Are we talking about Joe, the White House Plumber?

Give him a goddamned VW customized for long legs.

Just get him a Camel!

BillieJo… any idea if, after O talked to her, Feinstein “changed her mind” about Panetta being chosen for the CIA? Wouldn’t surprise me if she somehow had had a “change of heart” after hearing from “the one”….

I was wondering what everyone thought of Gupta… I’d never heard of him before. I saw a photo of him standing in the water- maybe on CNN or something- as I shot by that site, LOL…

bunch of r@cists!

Regarding voting I have today tried every link I have found to get to the voting site and the page will not display. I am blocked from entering!

I just used taggles link and I got in but it said I had already voted within the last 24 hours and I have not!

I voted yesterday more than 24 hours ago

try again in a half hour NOP

NewOrleansPuma 01.06.09 at 5:12 pm

Have you already voted? If so, perhaps t hasn’t been the mandatory 24 hours since the last time.
I get to vote in the morning on one computer and late afternoon on the other.
Two wrongs don’t make a right, but after ACORN……

mountainsong: I voted yessterday and I am quite sure it has been more than 24 but I half to leave soon to go march in the first ever Joan of Arc birthday parade here..her birthday is today..so I will try much later tonight.

Dances: Thank you dances!

EXDeminVa: These boys will continue to make up their own rules as they go…it worked for nomination and election..and the corruption has yet to even begin to show its full head or even a little bit of steam from the engine of corruption: OjangoGango the usurper of Democracy.

Why would we want the CIA to go on a new path with someone who the hell has never even stepped on the edge of any path relating to the nature of this important and critical entity especially now? so someone else could lead him, that is why..now who is that..who will that be..some Deputy and/or an unknown kitchen cabinet cronie of Ojingo.

Gupta? a joke and a nightmare!!

How sickening. This is all about PR and nothing about knowledge or values. This is all about selling policy to the public.

I’ll never forget “journalist” Gupta reporting on a mother and daughter in China who, basically, were condemned to die from water pollution that China refused to address. Gupta wrote that he was amazed at the mom’s white teeth and the girl was beautiful enough to be on the cover of a magazine (she was something like 11 or 12 years old!). This Mom & child were dying, and of course he left them to die but before he did – he reported on their ATTRACTIVENESS.

taggles & mountain;
Joe al Biden, of course! Iranian agent and apologist, aka VP-in-Waiting.

#174 ExDem: knock ‘em out with technicalities. It’s the Chicagobama way!

BrianH: Burris? You mean Franken, don’t you?

NewOrleans,
Due you ever get the feeling we are in the end of times as far as our country is concerned. I see people everyday who go about their business like none of this is happeneing. Hell my wife just recently said are we making to much out of this stuff and are we making a unreality a reality. I find that the whole notion and how this is going to affect the future of our country very unsettling. Worse off there are so many out there that believe everything done with this election and obot and his minions to be totally okay. I scares the hell out of me to see the devistation that came this year 2008 both to our families and to our country.

airforcehusker: Iwill be quite blunt..and it is not anything Iever imagined I could think:
I think I wan witnessing the demise of this Republic…and I have felt that and thought that prior to Ojingo, but with Ojingo, it is done.
The rest is fight.

Can i ask the board a non political question?

Is there anyone here from Cleveland Ohio?

every single legal structure upon which the Republic has functioned. Direct Democracies have always fallen. This is what we are into now and Madison;s Federalist Paper 10 and others there describe what happens when factions predominate.
Well..I have to go to the Joan of Arc Happy Birthday Parade in the French Quarter…the first ever…oh…how lovely and fun..
This New Orleans Peasant is happy to join with other New Orleanians to salute one of the most courageous women of all time. See you all later.

aiforcehusker, you said exactly what I have been feeling ever since this election was “stolen”. I have seen the greatest outbreak of evil and violence here in America that I have ever witnessed…. and people just turn a blind eye to most of it. Like NOP I feel like America has destroyed itself from within, just like the Roman Empire did, with this election and with what the dem leadership did regarding the economy when McCain tried to fix the onslaught of freddie/fannie problems before they began. More even all that, though… I “feel” this is definately the “end times” predicted in the Bible. The weather gone berserk (hey, I sure see that here in WI), the forest fires, the earthquakes, tsunami, hurricane, you name it… everything is incresed just it said it would be in the end times, along with the falling economy (just like the Bible predicted)… this is why I’ve been saying ever since about August to “watch Israel” because I think what Israel does now is going to not only have a direct impact on us as Americans, but it’s also going to give more signs of the “end times”. I, personally, think this attack on Hamas is just the beginning. I think that they, for the first time in their history, are going to feel that they have nobody – not even the U.S. because of B.O.- on their side and will feel they HAVE to attack Iran (who is developing nuclear weapons and is threatening to destroy Israel). That would result in the U.N. and Islamic nations declaring war on Israel for an “unprovoked attack” and a Prez. Obama would side with his buddies the Islamic nations in the U.N….and, just as the Bible predicted in the end times, there will be WWIII (nuclear) with the whole world (including U.S.) attacking Jerusalem. That will be “the sign” that I’m looking for final confirmation of this being the “end times”- Israel attacking Iran. So… watch….

Ex-Dem

I know that Pelosi was supposed to be trying to do that today… Do you have a link that shows she has accomplished this?

I wish this would have happened in obies selection…….. ACORN shouldn’t have gotten away with it.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) – Republican Norm Coleman said Tuesday he is suing to challenge Democrat Al Franken’s apparent recount victory in Minnesota’s U.S. Senate race, delaying a resolution of the contest for weeks or months.

At a Capitol news conference filled with cheering supporters, Coleman said he won’t accept a board’s determination a day earlier that Franken won 225 more votes in the November election. He had a seven-day window to file the lawsuit.

“We are filing this contest to make absolutely sure every valid vote was counted and no one’s was counted more than anyone else’s,” Coleman said.

Coleman shrugged off the idea that he might concede the election to avoid a protracted fight that could leave Minnesota with only a single senator in Washington for months.

“Something greater than expediency is at stake here,” Coleman said. He added: “Democracy is not a machine. Sometimes it’s messy and inconvenient, and reaching the best conclusion is never quick because speed is not the first objective, fairness is.”

KARENWI: have you ever seen the film Zeitgeist? you can watch the whole 2 hour thing on google video. There is the thought that “definately the “end times” predicted in the Bible” refers to the end of an “age”, not the world. And we are nearing the end of an age and will be entering into the age of aquarius. Unfortunately not in the immediate future…

You should watch that film if you haven’t already.

Zeitgeist remastered version

“Democracy is not a machine. Sometimes it’s messy and inconvenient, and reaching the best conclusion is never quick because speed is not the first objective, fairness is.”

Whoa! talk about well said!!

I guess so much has already taken place that was predicted for this (what I just posted in #206) I’ve got my “eyes peeled” to see if the next thing happens or not…. because if it DOES that could really be bad…. WWIII nuclear….

Alice Rodham Puma 01.06.09 at 6:52 am
I do agree with Turn Down Obama’s comments [downstairs] just above though. I hope it will be inclusive and proactive in seeking out other PUMA sites.

Thanks. They could check DailyPuma.com to make sure they’ve got everyone from there (keep updating) and/or get Alessandro to make a special announcement.

Whatever happened to Just Say No Deal and that crowd.

Probably went back to earning their own living! They had put so much into Puma. Diane was flying around giving interviews, being threatened…. YOu might check their other website, hireheels.com

KarenWI

Do you discuss this type of stuff with other family members? I do and many think like i do but i have a few that simply dont want to see it. My brother who lives in lincoln just goes about his business like nothing is going on. I simply turn on the TV news and you see signs. Its like it is right before our eyes saying hey look what is happening and you either have the vision or you dont.

Have you noticed lately how angry and loud obots have gotten. I have noticed on another political talking board that i frequent. They are very angry and absolute hostile when i bring up issues like pay for play, oboma spouting off about the economy because he is the president elect but totally silent about isreal, you can go on and on and remember this is simple discussions about events happeneing now. They are simply you support obot or your nothing. Hell i got inot a fight with one about my service of 19 1/2 years in the military and this clown tried telling me that i didnt earn a right to speak because i didnt support oboma. He even had the nerve to tell me and my family to go to hell for supporting mccain/palin. i have never seen anything like this. Are we going to be heading to a time when you have to live in certain parts of the united states to be safe for you individual thought process. Maybe we will be in a time that you have to express your loyalty to the one or you are sent somewheres else. Call me crazy but i just think something is happeneing and it isnt right.

I was listening to Glenn Beck and it is scary… he is predicting our country to go totally Socialist in 18 m onths… and remember he predicted the banking-housing crisis 18 months ago!11

GUPTA ALSO SAID WE SHOULDN’T FIGHT BACK AGAINST TERRORISTS… PANETTA DOES NOT HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE IN THE SPY BUSINESS… DO WE HAVE ANY FEAR OF TERROISTS IN THIS COUNTRY???? WE MAY BE SEEING MORE IN THE FUTURE!!1

Nijma, I sure wish I could afford to go out and buy an outfit like that. I’d prolly never be off it.

Brian~~~LMAO @ Joe al Biden.

TDO, yes, autonomy of action, along with collecive cooperation. I like that.

Today, Hamas; Tomorrow, Iran. Next week China.

bqueen~~someone relates to democracy like I do to writing. LOL

Damn!!! so much information passes thru our blogsite~~~how in the world do we retain it all? Or separate the wheat from the chaf?

airforcehusker 01.06.09 at 6:36 pm

” I see other lieing or faking ailements or medical problems just to not work becuase the government will take care of you. There is not incentive for anything over here. Just taxes taxes and more taxes because we have to take care of everyone but in the end no one is responsible for anything. This place is a mad house.”

It’s beginning to happen here, too.

Look am i paranoid or does other see a time in which there isnt an election in 2012 becuase oboma will already have won. Better yet what about people being asked to progess there allegiance to the one. Might sound far fetched but that is some of the things my grandfather talked to me about when i was young and he said the end of times would be quickly around the corner.

Look did you here about teamsarah webpage. There was an attempt by a bunch of obots to infiltrate this message board and spout a bunch of racist threads inorder to bring trumped up charges that sarah pain and her members are racist in order to hopefully shut down the site. Just more manipulation in a attempt to silence any discension amongst those not supporting the one.

mountainsong. it has been two years since i lived in the united states and i am curious about a possible trend.

Here in the UK the big thing the government does is force down insurance on everyone. Now i am not just talking about car, home life, but they are making people buy pet insurance, travel insurance, vacation insurance, tv insurance, insurance everywhere, you watch tv and 2 out of 5 commercials are about insurance and if they arent about insurance they are about donating to this organization or that organization.

At the end of the day you are actually tired from all the stupid commericals and i cant help but wonder with all the money they get from high taxes what are they doing with that money.

Off-topic, but I just posted this story to the ACORN Forum, http://pumapac.org/forums/investigating-acorn/

Worker: ACORN knew of fraudulent voter registration forms

Philadelphia Inquirer
Oct 29, 2008

HARRISBURG, Pa. – A former employee of an affiliate of ACORN testified Wednesday that the community group now in the national spotlight knew that most new voter registration forms it had gathered were fraudulent.

These pages contain news articles, editorials or opinions about the Equal Rights Amendment which we sent to our members within hours of their release. Our “Get Active” page has information about how you can help the campaign. As a member of our community of ERA supporters, we value your input. If you would like to offer comments or suggestions, contact us at info@4ERA.org . Our goal is to have 4ERA public awareness campaigns in all the states and particularly the unratified states. If you know of opportunities for 4ERA speakers to address groups who may be interested in hearing about the renewed efforts to ratify the ERA, please email 4ERA. If you have time and wish to volunteer, you can become a 4ERA state contact, a 4ERA speaker in your community or start a 4ERA group on your campus. Just write to us and let us know how you would be interested in being involved. And if you would like to make a donation, we will be grateful. Finally, please tell others about the petition and encourage them to take a few moments to sign up. We need to demonstrate to lawmakers that poll numbers represent actual American people who believe in equality of men and women. You can help us do that by spreading the word about 4ERA and the ERA to others. Thank you for your support.

airforcehusker, re 2012… I just have this probably crazy gut-fear that SOMEHOW O will find a way (via his cronies such as Pelosi) to get it so that POTUS either are in longer than 4 years at a time, or get more than 2 terms, or SOMETHING. Now that Pelosi and O have power in their evil claws I just have thie sinking feeling that they will find a way- somehow- to circumvent things so that there is NO WAY they can ever give up that power…. (sigh)…

===================================
I did vote & will vote every time I am allowed. I have been keeping up with the posts as much as I can. And trying to do acorn as well. I have found that many articles about acorn are being scrubbed.

Have to wait longer before I vote again.

Airforcehusker,
Sorry to hear you’ve been away from America that long. It’s not quite that bad over here. We’re fighting it, the socialist drab society.
Well, going to type paper, bbl.
