The Conservative Thread: Back to Basics. Pass the Lasagna and Have a Flower!!

[wonderlanne]

I met Newt in........DisneyWorld!! Yes, I did. Literally bumped into him at the German Pavilion trains. I apologized to him and then realized who he was and screamed, "OMG you're Newt." He said, "why yes I am" He laughed at me. He was really nice.

WOW! a conservative celebrity encounter.

i love those trains....

 

[blestmom]

THAT IS JUST SUCKY!!!! i already drive 90 miles in each direction (2 - 2.5hours each direction!) in the s.f. bay area to work where i can earn enough to pay my bills. bridge toll is already $4, and we already pay a gas tax. i drive a fuel efficient car. now he's gonna make it unreasonable for me to have a job which allows me to pay my bills? does anybody seriously think i'd commute like this if there were jobs near home paying the same? i'm sorry to offend, but how about we add taxes to the single drivers of hummers and giant SUVs...these things are HUGE, guzzle gas, and there's only ONE PERSON IN THEM!!! if you're driving a passel o' kids or need it for work or something, then i understand, but COME ON!!!!!!!!

i'm ready for obummer to GO AWAY NOW!!!!

thank you. i'll be here all week.

I agree...

DH commutes 60 miles per day...one way...to work. Not to mention all the driving we do for sports, etc.

I don't think I would care for Newt as CIC.

so i guess we'll all have to quit our jobs and sit at home waiting for the companies near home (which will probably CLOSE) to hire us at the same rate as a company far away.

I DEMAND A RECOUNT!!!! THIS MAN IS ALREADY CAUSING ME TO FEEL MORE THAN A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED!!!

phew...oh gosh....feel much better now.

Hmmmm.... Obama considering a "congestion tax" for cars???

What tax ISN'T Hussein considering?

Ok, done laughing, now I need to cry a little.

Remind me to NEVER reply to a political thread again. Just had a heated PM exchange. They just don't see that they are the intolerant ones with their snarky and vile comments and don't forget the arrogance.

BTW, if y'all want my turkey recipe, I posted it on the Turkey Tips thread. YUM!

I've had a pituitary adenoma for over 20 years. It's changed very little over the years. I've always wondered if this has effect on my fibro. I'm a LITTLE claustrophobic but, valium seems to do the trick (during the MRI) for me.

Hmm, interesting. I never thought about it my Fibro. I was diagnosed with it after a bout of viral meningitis. Now, I wonder...

 

[MeghansMommy]

HI everyone! I'm back and kind of loopy (what else is new? LOL) The MRI went well and although I was awake for most of it, I didn't flip out or anything.

A little tired now, but starving. Once we get the kids from school, we're going to head out to go out to eat.

As for Newt running for Pres - I really like the guy. I think he's brilliant and I love to hear him talk. The man has a mind like an encyclopedia and I would love to just sit and talk with him about American history and politics. Plus he seems like a nice guy, BUT, I'm not sure if he'll get the Repub. nom for CIC.

 

[SwedishMeatball]

No worries on all of the new taxes being imposed. I mean, 95% will be able to cover them with their tax cuts/rebates. Right?? At worst it would end up a wash. Right?? So then what exactly is the point of cutting one set of taxes, and then raising another set of taxes, on the same group?? The frog is in the pot, and the heat is on.

I'm noticing that the Obama supporters are acting much the same way as the Bush suppoerters were being accused of back in 2000; the man can do no wrong. God forbid you try to bring up something he may have done wrong, because then you'd be accused of using Republican smear tatics.

The only reason I think he might not run is because of his age. I think he'll be near 70 in 2012.

They sure are an easily riled group.

When I get such a PM from a person whose ideology I know of and don't care for.... and don't even open it. I just flush it.

I can't remember the last time I saw a group so grumpy after winning.

Seriously, it's a Democrat world; we just live in it. And these people STILL behave like somebody pooped on their birthday cake.

C'mon OSers (I know you read here), get happy already! This is as good as it gets for you guys.

This OS is pretty happy. Not 100% because of a couple of pretty serious setbacks in AZ, FL and CA and hopefully Obama will do what's necessary to change things. But I'm happy. And I didn't even drink any Kool Aid!
