	Roland Burris reminds me of someone who shows up at a party but no one knows who invited him,

	<description>
	no one wants to sit with him and no one can make him go home...<br />
<br />
Does anyone else think that his constant facial expression is one of &quot;My-God-I-Can't-Believe-I'm-Here!&quot;?<br />

Just trying to duplicate the emails I get from every senator, congressperson and other government official,<br />
every time they burp.<br />
<br />
I mean, why do we have to send them money for voting or speaking up for or against any given issue?<br />
Isn't that what the hell ...

	Do you think that Sarah Palin has a future as a 'star' of the GOP, or was she a 15-min. wonder who

	will slink off into the shadows of ignominy, shunned by the party that tried to pawn her off on us,<br />
recognized as a failed Hail Mary pass that McCain threw in desperation but that no one wanted to catch?<br />

I believe she has high aspirations for herself and Ambition with a capital &quot;A.&quot;  However, I'...

	OMG.  My niece in GA - who is an ardent Obama supporter - just received this email

	<description>
	from someone in FLA.  <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Dear Fellow Business Owners<br />
<br />
As a Business owner who employs 30 people, I have  resigned myself to the<br />
fact that Barack Obama, wll be our next President, and that my Taxes and<br />
Fees, will go up in a BIG way.<br />
<br />
To compensate for these increases, I figure, that the Cu...

The picture of him walking in his old neighborhood, thinking of his grandmother<br />

I think I'm overwhelmed by the real possibility that change may actually be just around the corner,<br />
and that this fine family wh...

	Dear Mrs. Palin - What does &quot;via his own admittance&quot; mean??!
	</title>
	<description>
	&quot;There's no question that Bill Ayers, via his own admittance, is a terrorist...&quot;<br />
<br />
That's what you said to Brian Williams when he asked you if an abortion clinic bomber would be considered a terrorist (without, of course,<br />
answering the question).   The harder you try to sound intelligent, the more...

	K&amp;R.  I am so sick of McCain spouting his ridiculous statements and then, after the errors have been
	</title>
	<description>
	exposed, stretching it like taffy to try to make it sound like it makes sense.<br />
Does he not know how utterly stupid it makes him sound?<br />
<br />
I can't stand this man.  He is altogether without morals and without a soul.<br />
And the Devil's pockets are bulging....

	After volunteering for MoveOn.Org yesterday and calling people in swing states, I've come to the 
	</title>
	<description>
	conclusion that people are either very well informed on the issues and the candidates, or they're<br />
Republican.<br />
<br />
The purpose of the calling party was to contact other MoveOn members around the country and ask them if they could volunteer<br />
on specific dates, to help the Obama campaign register voter...

	very staunch Republican - was saying  how crucial it is for Obama to be defeated in November.<br />
<br />
As the reasons for his believing this, he regurgitated every freeze-dried Republican talking point that's already been debunked<br />
a hundred times or more.  And at the end of his ignorant diatribe, he lean...

	</title>
	<description>
	just this one time.  With the Clintons, jealousy trumps all other considerations.<br />

It is inconceivable to me - even though, at this point, it probably shouldn't be -  that, to this date,  neither Hillary nor Bill have<br />
picked up the phone and congratulated Obama on earning the designation as presu...

	<description>
	McCain opened his comedy tour by trying out his new stand-up routine for a few friends, impersonating an aging robot with yellow teeth,<br />
saying trite phrases in a creepy whisper and then, each time, producing a breathy half-laugh to add to the creepitude of it all,<br />
as his head turned from one telep...

	<description>
	Bush possibly say that would be illuminating?<br />
<br />
Then I realized that I was not in DU.  I was reading the Star Phoenix newspaper, and the article was<br />
actually about a real chimpanzee, not a cheap imitation.<br />
<br />
Really!<br />

Made me laugh all afternoon....

	Hillary's RFK assassination comments = Fear mongering that would make FOX proud
	</title>
	<description>
	Terry McAuliffe's high praise for Fox News was evidently heart-felt, based on Hillary's new strategy of subliminal <br />
fear mongering.<br />
<br />
The only &quot;plus&quot; that could accrue to her as a result of the obscene comments she made is the possibility of planting the seed<br />
in people's minds that it would be *s...

Since they keep moving the goalposts, his question in effect asked them to define what they see as &quot;winni...
