Went to the movies yesterday, "An American Carol", then did lunch at
RA.

"An American Carol", while a loosely connected story line, is very
funny slap-schtick, but disjointed at times.

But many scenes accurately depicting the fascist left troubled me.

Then I learned that all the Hollywood distribution companies refused
to distribute it.

Reminded me of scenes from "Cabaret", so I went home and watched that,
to refresh my mind about what "life" under fascism will be like :-(

Instead of giving up by thinking that the asshole Obama idiot will
actually get into office, why are you not busy out at the coffee shops
telling folks that this election is the most important ever, and that we
MUST place the republican candidate in office this time, or the entire
nation's economy, as well as its security, will be severely compromised?

You need to impress on all your friends just how important it is that
ALL republicans get their asses out there and VOTE!

The Democrats are bitching this morning that they consider it
offensive that Sarah Palin brings her Downs' syndrome child with her
on the campaign trail.

I suppose that they'd prefer, like the Nazis, to exterminate anyone
with a disability? That way they don't have to see them and be
offended?

Oh please. The EXACT same thing was said in 2004 (and 2000). They can't
ALL be "the most important ever".

It wasn't said by me, idiot.

I suppose that you are yet another dopey idiot that doesn't remember
911.

We were attacked then, and now we have to endure the attack that is
mustered up by dopey idiots like you, complacently thinking we are OK.

Did you even see the news piece on recent Russian Navy Ship
deployments?

You're an idiot if you think you know what is going on, yet have the
position you spew in this post.

Obama wants to bring 3000 lawyers to Florida for election day, to
force the state to let people vote when their registration & ID don't
match. Does he think this is Chicago?

"Google Obama lawyers Florida" doesn't bring it up.

Not in the voting precincts. I think I'll use the early balloting and
avoid the crowds anyway

I challenge you to provide evidence of widespread "voter fraud".
This nonsense is a solution in search of a problem
and it is partisan in the extreme.

In Florida, the problem ya'll have is "election fraud"
perpetrated by elected and appointed officials
who are convinced that Republicans can't win in a fair fight.

I haven't voted in a booth for more than 5 years. I like my mail-in
ballot. Sit down comfy at the kitchen table, read everything
carefully (we have a ton of Propositions this year), then vote.

Then pray ;-)

It was printed in the Ocala 'Star Banner', but isn't on their
website. Most news stories are slow to never when it comes to their
online edition. :(

I'll see if I can find it in the recycling bins.

Cites? Do you know _anything_ about the process that's already in
place in Florida to deal with people without proper ID at the voting
precincts? Do you know what a 'Provisional Ballot' is, and how it works,
or are you just trying to blow smoke up everyone's ass?

It definitely looks partisan, by the Democratic candidate.

If the Republicans are worried about it, why is it Obama who is
wanting to import lawyers to monitor the voting?

We enter the Obama era with free health care for all, we'll exit it

My daughter's 1st grade class had a mock election before November. Most of
the kids voted for Obama, including mine. No good reason, they're 7. She
asked me why I wasn't voting for him and I told her that if he raises taxes
on businesses it may cost a lot of people their jobs.

I got laid off last week... she said she wanted to call Obama and ask him to
give me my job back. ;o)
