Conservative thread: We're still smiling!

[Humphrey Bear]

Guess that mentally unstable article was on the money!

I've been thinking that same thing.

If McCain had won, could you imagine yourself complaining endlessly(I'm thinking of another word that starts with a B and ends in itching, but can't use here, LOL) about the other side? I would be so ecstatically happy that my guy won, and that hopefully I'd never have to hear the HHO's name again, that I'd be on I don't care what the HHO's supporters think, say or do now, and I sure as hell wouldn't care what they thought if it was a conservative who was elected as POTUS. Their thoughts would be the last thing on my mind, so why us conservatives are constantly on their mind leads me to believe that they don't know how to be happy, nothing can make them happy, and they think they are happy when they are yammering (that's slang for the word that I'm not allowed to say here, but you know what I mean ).

Well now… our country did just elect Barack Obama and she does (despite all that the liberals try to ignore) have a heck of a lot more accomplishments under her belt than he currently does. So if he’s good enough to be President of the United States…….

Actually, I agree. I love Palin. She’s a genuine person who believes in hard work and actually goes out and accomplishes things. However, I don’t want her running for President in 2012. I want her to move into the US Senate next. I want her to gain some legislative experience and I think she’d be good there. We need more people like her there. Later in her life, maybe she’d be an excellent candidate to run for POTUS.

Seriously, she was the good thing about the McCain campaign; I wasn’t thrilled in having to vote for him until she came on board. If I was going to have to vote for a moderate Dem (ahem) I still rather vote for Hillary Clinton (yup) over John McCain.

About the interviews, I don't think she has much of a choice. She's still too much of a public interest. My co-worker reads cnn.com a lot (don’t know why) and says they’re always pulling in stuff on Palin; no matter how insignificant. Really, all the lib’s on there just go off on a serious bash fest in the comment section; but CNN wouldn’t be doing that if there wasn’t still a genuine interest in Palin.

I agree that Palin should go into the Senate, that'd be a smart move.

But seriously, Hilary?? She's my Senator. I could never ever ever ever!!! vote for her.

EXACTLY!!!! You hit the nail right on the head!!!! I don't give a flying crap what they think about anything. They need to quit obsessing over our thoughts and find something else to concentrate on.

I agree. Stay away from the VP/POTUS positions for awhile. Go to the Senate, Governor Palin. That would be her best move.

Well. I admit to lurking on the lib thread yesterday. I don't do that very often, but I did yesterday. It was intentional to post that letter on the main board to see how fast a conservative would bash it. What I find to be funny is that the first person to be “snarky” over there was a Democrat who confessed to voting for, and liking, Obama. While that poster was called out for being “snarky”, it was blatantly ignored that poster was a Obama supporter.

Well that's predictable, and also amusing, that they have one set of rules for themselves, and another set of rules for us. I mean who would have guessed that they'd have snark over there and be daring each other to post stuff to stir the pot.

But, yes, that letter was very contrived. It wasn’t written for his daughters, it was written as a publicity stunt…. Just like his “prayer” at the Wailing Wall was released to the media and just how his “private” reflection at the Lincoln Memorial was made public to the media.

Dang, I forgot about that. As we connect the dots, a clearer picture is emerging.

OK.. read a bit more of that thread now. It was only started to get us to bash the letter so that they could bash us. It’s sad actually. Oh, and they apparently want yet another opportunity to bash Pailn, why else would she have been brought up?

They're so charming and clever.

Maybe they have no thoughts? No original ones that is. Only thoughts that the liberal, biased MSM, Keith Olberman, Jon Stewart, Oprah, David Letterman, Bill Mahr, and those vapid, air-headed, nose-in-the air celebrities they "oh so worship" put in their heads, perhaps?

You give them way too much credit.

Speaking of Olderman, whenever I see him, I think of this muppet because they both have pasted on eyebrows, big mouths, and are easily whipped into a "wet his pants frenzy".

See? This is why Palin is still doing interviews; she’s still to high in demand to be able to be left alone in Alaska. As long as she’s in demand the left will continue to bash her and spread lies about her – she needs to be able to speak up for herself.

Oh. And she’s not a whiner. She went through the entire election taking that abuse and kept her mouth shut. A guy wants to do a documentary about everything and she has an opportunity to finally tell her side of the story and she’s a whiner? Pleeease.




Everyone became so accustomed of falsely crying racism throughout the election and not getting called on it – they don’t care that this has nothing to do with racism. If I lived in the area I’d show up with a sign stating that Obama is also against drilling and ask them if they’re going to protest Obama at the White House next week, after he moves in.

And yes, they are basically stating that only black people are poor and live in inner city slums. They, like I’m noticing a lot of people (mainly those that profess to be liberal), don’t actually think before they speak.




Oh, I just saw a book at the store titled: Michelle Obama First Lady of Hope.

One, if they were going to call her First Lady in the title, they should have waited until she actually receives that title next week before releasing the book

Two, has anyone yet figured out exactly the Obama's definition of 'hope' because he's never made it clear. He just says the word 'hope' and his followers begin screaming, crying and fainting. No wonder he hasn't had to define 'hope' yet.

Maybe one of the lurkers will be so kind.

DD, I hope you dont mind if I ask, and if you do, just ignore me, but I'm very curious how old you were when you were diagnosed and what some of the signs were. I have some issues with one of my boys and I'm not the only one that notices them, but we haven't had any diagnoses as of yet, despite lots of labwork and visits to a neurologist. For example:

If he wants to say something, he cannot form a complete sentence without searching for the words. Every other sound out of his mouth is "uh". It can take him over a minute to get out a 6 or 7 word sentence because he has to search for the words to use.

The slightest bit of confrontation of any kind and he cries. He cries nearly every day at school (he's the one that is not home schooled) if his teacher reprimands him in the slightest way. He cries every night when it is time for bed, and he cries everytime he's told to take a shower. He gets in trouble mainly for things he has been told over and over and over again not to do (and he's been punished for the same things repeatedly but they don't seem to have any effect)

He gets good grades, but will NOT follow directions. He gets in trouble for this nearly daily. I can give him a task to do, and he is fully aware of how to do it and is capable of doing it but will still do what he wants...this is an ongoing problem when it comes to writing his spelling words, or putting his clothes in his drawers.

I originally took him to the DR because he walks way up on his tip toes. WAY UP. DH does somewhat as well so I figured it was just a genetic thing, but they actually told me it was usually caused by lack of oxygen to the brain at some point, likely during the birth process. He did have a collapsed lung at birth, and his birth mother smoked throughout his entire pregnancy. He now wears APO braces on both legs, and has for over a year now, and went through 3 months of serial casting prior to those, but the second he takes them off he's right back up on his tip toes.

Considering he is 6 1/2 years old, I think that there is something not quite right, but DH refuses to even consider the possibility, and thinks I'm reading more into things. He did go through alot of upheaval for the first 3 years of his life so that might attribute to some of it, but he's just not anywhere near where a kid his age should be on an emotional scale. His mom dumped him with relatives when he was just under a year old, and DH had to fight his former in-laws in court for nearly 2 years to get him back (she dumped him while DH was deployed and he didn't find out until he came back)

While it is frustrating to deal with, he's a very loving boy and not a "bad" kid by any means, but I really fear as he continues in school that he will turn into the kid that becomes the target for bullies because he's so sensitive emotionally.

Do any of these things sound like warning signs of possible autism to you?

I don't mind talking about it at all. I was diagnosed when I was about 12, which was pretty late compared to many people I've talked to. That being said, I am really not an expert in this area.

I was originally diagnosed with ADD, and was given ritalin, Wellbutrin, and Adarall to help with distraction issues. The reason the psychologist considered Asperger's was because I was behind socially. I also started exhibiting many traits that correlated with autism (circumscribed interests, difficulty reading social cues, poor ToM, flat affect, etc). To be honest, I have never asked my parents what tipped them off to my condition. I just take this from the things they told the psychologist that contributed to my diagnosis.

Like I said, I am not an expert, but it does not sound like your son has autism. I'm pretty sure his problems are from his upbringing. I once babysat a child who was severely abused as a child. He was thirteen years old, but his mental ability was around the 7-9 range. If something happens during critical development stages, whether it be physical or environmental, it can have major effects on the child later in life. For example, if their language is delayed past the age of two or three, then language skills throughout their life will be hampered.

This is coming from my own research and my psychology studies. I do not even have my bachelor's degree yet, so I wouldn't just go by what I tell you. I would go to a psychologist and get their opinion. However, it's my opinion that your son's development was impeded during early life, and that is still affecting him.

I'll be praying for your family. I know that with the right help, good things can happen. I was caught very late and I still managed to learn the things I needed to function.

Perfect!!!!!!

But seriously, Hilary?? She's my Senator. I could never ever ever ever!!! vote for her.

I think not being in the Senate was Bush's downfall (he was totally naive about how dirty some politicians could be). I think the Senate, after another term as Governor, would be an excellent stepping stone.

[Decorated_Dust]

Anyone watching the Pres (you know, the one still in office) speak at 8 EST?

I missed it!!! Can someone post a YouTube link or something.

Bush was not my favorite president, and I admit he did a lot of things wrong, but I don't think he's the monster many liberals say he is. He's doing what he thinks is right.

I might have already said this, but my problem with the left is how they say Bush is a monstrous liar, but in the same breath, they say he's an idiot. He's either one or the other, people! If he is really as much of a conniving person as you say he is, then he would need to be extremely smart! Good grief.

I think my least favorite thing about Bush is that he talks about America being the shining hope of the world, or something like that. That offends me as a Christian. America is a great country, but I wouldn't say it's shining. Christ is the hope of the world, not America. I know this could be considered heresy here, but that's how I feel.

Totally agree with this one.

Wonder, got your PM- why is it that everything you post always has this underlying bit of humor that makes me just fall out ?? Seriously. You always make me laugh.
