QUOTE(mr_genius @ Mar 1, 2008 -> 02:43 PM) lol, why not just raise taxes more. make that $1000 computer have $35 in extra tax. It's ONLY 35 dollars. But why stop there? juice it to $70, you can afford a measley $70 dollars right? http://www.suntimes.com/news/politics/8201...t022908.article To hike it 2% would have caused an out right mutiny!

Let me put this in perspective: If I good to Woodfield and buy a $1000 computer from the Apple Store, prior to this, the county tax was .75 percent. So, I would have payed $7.50 in county taxes. Now, it is 1.75% and I would have to pay $17.50!!!

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Feb 14, 2008 -> 09:28 PM) Not so fast. It turns out that he didn't fail a test in 2001 after all. It was a typo. Oh ok, he failed BEFORE he broke the record. that makes it sooooo much better.

Pretty Creative...

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Mar 1, 2008 -> 10:26 AM) It's a stupid debate, I might add. no arguments from me on this.

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Mar 1, 2008 -> 08:17 AM) How can McCain run for President if he wasn't born in the US? It's a technicality and some are beginning the debate. basically. he was born in Panama because his parents were in the military. I BELIEVE there is an exemption for US service people serving outside the country.

Obama's Response:

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Feb 29, 2008 -> 04:22 PM) Hillary personally hits the 3:00 a.m. phone ringing garbage issue. We're what, 2 days away from the ad of Obama's face morphing in to Bin Laden's face at th? I think she just gave us a look into what her campaign and presidency would be like.. "there isnt any time to convene your advisors.... to do a survey about what will or will not be popular"

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 29, 2008 -> 01:08 AM) s keep in mind we raised nearly 8 million dollars for the new athletic center at Huskie Stadium, I'm sure we could raise far more than that for the cause of a state of the art, re-done on the interior Cole Hall. Agreed. i had a friend go to school there and my sisters BF goes there. I'd be willing to donate $100 towards it.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Feb 29, 2008 -> 01:20 PM) Jessica Alba! *drool* well yea, that helps! lol

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Feb 29, 2008 -> 01:00 PM) Will.I.Am's new Obama video: http://www.dipdive.com/dip-politics/wato/ Pretty impressive! not as good as the first, in my opinion, but VERY well done.

QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Feb 29, 2008 -> 12:46 PM) The Clinton campaign just doesn't like to make sense. So, if Obama doesn't manage to erase ALL of your 20+ pt leads, and you still hang on to a small victory, that's a bad sign for Obama? They are scratching and clawing for anything they can. They just cant see the facts. Now, I dont think he will win them all. I think they split the 4 states. but in the end, Obama will widen his lead in delegates. The fact that the clinton campaign is threatening to sue the state of there system just goes to show they are VERY worried about Texas..

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Feb 29, 2008 -> 11:28 AM) Jesus H. Christ. Seriously? Hillary? Seriously? My word. Wow. BO replies to this ad. :o :o Seriously? Are you kidding me? Talk about no "beef"! Just scare the $h1T out of everyone.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Feb 29, 2008 -> 09:32 AM) Clinton threatens lawsuit over Texas caucus system. LINK Does this surprise anyone? She was on her way to loosing NV, so she, ok a "surrogate" sued over the caucuses. Now they are about to loose a BIG state, so they are going after the system. Typical tactics to steal an election.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Feb 28, 2008 -> 04:17 PM) In case anyone was wondering, I think Rep Jack Kingston (R-GA) is a douche bag. I watched that live. It was GREAT!

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Feb 28, 2008 -> 04:21 PM) You should be waterboarded for saying that. I know. she has to tell everyone i hated. I dunno. I'd rather have been waterboarded than watch it.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Feb 28, 2008 -> 03:46 PM) Yeah that was terrible. But honestly, the was the first time I watched the whole movie straight through. My wife made me watch it a while back. I cant even begin to tell you how much i dislike that movie. I could not STAND it.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Feb 28, 2008 -> 03:11 PM) http://news.sympatico.msn.ctv.ca/TopStorie...ms_nafta_080227 I also wonder what the trade ratio is with Canada. i tend to think the REAL problem is Mexico, but no one is going to say that so thy dont piss off the Latinos.

QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Feb 28, 2008 -> 02:35 PM) Question: what happens to all of this money if a campaign loses/ drops out? They are allowed to keep the money in their "war chest", btu i dont think they can buy a nice new house.

Let the speculation begin... Obama said he has "reached out" to Bloomburg since he dropped out. Combine that with their "secret" breakfast meeting back in November. Hmmm... Obama / Bloomburg '08?
