If that's so, then IMO it's a looooong corner...

I don't envy the people who win their elections. They will face
monumental challenges. From the prez right down to the new school
board member who is finding out the district is heavily invested in
CDOs. I think we are living right now in "history" unlike any since
WWII. We should all pray that those elected will be up to the task and
will honorably attack the great challenges ahead. If they don't, if it
ends up as petty politics as usual, or worse, then God help us all...

Riiiiight. what the hell do you think we've had for the last 8 years.
Sure seems like prosperity to me. Doin' real well, David. Remember,
pay those taxes. Gotta get my Navy pay AND by SS pay from you dumb
libbers. d;o)

How's it grab your ass David that both Bush and Cheney will be making
more money than you *until they die*. Now THAT is funny.

I always try to look on the bright side, David. If Obama wins I will
have my wife home with me every day. We'll be able to do things
together. She'll be able to join me in Chile or Alaska. No more
travels to NJ. No more getting up early. And, if Obama wins, I won't
have to go on suicide watch in the town just north of me. PLUS, I
won't have to worry about Fortenberry in my driveway tomorrow morning
with his chicken**** 4 iron. d;o(

I suspect that if this comes to be, in four years you'll be saving more
money on pharmaceuticals alone than you'll be losing in any tax increases.

My pharmaceuticals cost me very little, Scott. My taxes are horrific.
This, afterall, *is* the Commonwealth of Massachusetts where you pay
an income tax, a sales tax, a property tax, an excise tax (on your
automobiles every year - it's supposed to pay for roads/bridges -
riiiiiiight. And, since I am more than 70 1/2, I have to remove a
certain percentage of my 401K each year even tho I do not want to or
need to. The taxes on that are horrific and I expect will get worse.
So much for saving for my old age. Obama's intended increase in
capital gains will hit *everyone* very hard.

" Capital Gains: Families with incomes below $250,000 will continue to
pay the capital gains rates
that they pay today. For those in the top two income tax brackets –
likewise adjusted to affect only
families over $250,000 – Obama will create a new top capital gains rate
of 20 percent. Obama’s 20%
rate is equal is the lowest rate that existed in the 1990s and the rate
that President Bush proposed in
2001. It is almost a third lower than the rate that President Reagan
signed into law in 1986.vii"

"I love this country dearly. I hope and pray for her prosperity and
safety. I hope and pray that the discord, the disharmony of the last
eight years will end. I have never experienced as much hate from my
fellow citizens except when in uniform during the 60s."

What goes around comes around, yes?
