It’s great to see a full-out Lefty think for him/herself. Most Cons, however, were also against the Wall Street Bailout, which was, indeed, sickening.

Keep at it and you’ll become one of us Neanderthal Unwashed or whatever stereotype is in vogue as dictated by popular urban-based culture. Great hearing your thoughts.

Too bad you guys couldnt see how much of a laugh Obama was before Palin even came into the picture.
For almost a whole year before Palin was announced Obamas qualifications were being questioned, as it turns out he still has fewer than Palin.
Your personal stories carry about as much weight as your opinions.

I’ve spoken to a lot of lefties in my hood who think the media made her out to be the idiot she is not.
They dont like what she stands for, but none will argue that she is not a smart and successful woman.
The majority of those living in Alaska do not feel the way your neighbors do.
Those are the people who you should believe.

All I Know is whenever a contract comes up for renegotiation, no mater what union it is, you see on the news, “local union ### on strike, wants more money, more benefits”. All I am saying is that the union is outdated. At one time it was a good idea, but now it isn’t about better working conditions, it is all about greed now. You saw it when the writers went on strike, Baseball, Hockey, and anytime the UAW strikes.

Union pay, and corporate compensation is out of control, and i feel is the reason for the collapse of the big three. The reason American made vehicles are so expensive. Who could really blame someone for buying a Toyota or any other foreign brand of vehicle. Twice the car for the same or lower sticker price.

Now Jersey, what are unions really like? I will assume you are a union member.

Laree, if you want the Republican party to remain in the minority for the forseeable future, keep boosting Sarah Palin. You just have no idea how much that woman puts people off. I live in a “red” area. I’ve talked to dozens of locals about the election. Not a one thought Palin was a good veep pick, and a few even told me that her pick turned their vote to Obama. People like me? We laugh at Palin - and feel almost sorry for her supporters.

I just like Chickaboomer blog, one of my favorites. Marty Davis, covered Imus when he came back on air, live blogged him the first couple of shows, then I was contributing to Chickaboomer - a running commentary for about a week when the show first came back on air. I am one of 4 who contribute to Sarah Palin 2012 blog, that belongs to History Chasers, they also have Historical Blogs, Historical Melungeons, Lost Colony of Roanoke ect… I have Blogged for Imus Times:) I never intended to blog but I enjoy the online blogging experience. It has been awhile since I posted on my own blog “This Isn’t Your Mother’s Blog. I like to journal more then the commentary style or maybe “screed” ( a long tirade on any subject, is a better description of what I like to write:) Maybe I will have time after the holidays.

Ha ha, ho ho, hee hee.

Yea right.
Thats why liberals practically offer sex to the union workers for their votes.
Thats why if you go out in the employees parking lot at Ford every car has an Obama sticker on it.

“The only probem with Chapter 11 is that the banks might be reluctant to lend for autos from bankrupt makers. I’m not sure what they’re worried about”

I mentioned this above.
The auto makers know that with where they stand and the cheesy concessions they’re offering the banks would laugh them outta the office.
Thats why they’re buggin the fed. Easier mark.
They probably figure that if the fed will give money to study lobsters at this point in our economy they’ll give money for almost anything.

Lets face it there is no factory assembly worker worth 30 dollars an hour, and yes I have worked factories and I am also a Veteran.

My Mother is a nurse and makes less than a Big Three factory worker. I have an associates degree in computer programming (currently working in IT, Networking) and make less than 10 dollars an hour. I am not saying my mother and I are underpaid…They are overpaid.

Before we know it, America will no longer have a capitalist economic system, everything will be owned by the government, moving us to a communist, or socialist country. The very thing that we have fought against, around the world, for years. It is up to the citizens of America to stop this progression, write your senators and congressional leaders, let them know what you think about these Bailouts (Corporate Welfare), and if they do not listen, VOTE THEM OUT IN THE NEXT ELECTION. Only we can stop the great misuse of our tax dollars.
