I, like many of you, have watched with hopeful optimism as the news of the Emergency Stabilization Act of 2008 or any number of the bailouts have been approved by Congress to help stimulate the economy.

debate: Yes America, associations matter! - 10/16/08 10:20 AM
Isaid I was going to quite getting upset with the craziness of the campaign. But I have heard so many comments that it's ALL about the economy, not old associations of Obama. Of course the economy matters, that's why Obama look so appealing to those who desperately want change, their willing to believe whatever he says. … (0 comments)

debate: Debate Facts #2 - 10/08/08 11:56 AM
McCain and Obama debated for the second time, in Nashville last night. As with the VP debate, I went to FactCheck.org to see how accurate their statements were, (totally disregarding the disrespectful "this guy").  FactCheck.org noted some misleading statements and mangled facts and in an effort to be fair and educate... … (2 comments)

debate: 94 Times.........That's 94 Times.......... - 10/08/08 09:07 AM
Last night 90 minuets of my life were spent staring at the picture box, wondering why.......
Why, after mentioning the voting record of the opposition, does the number have to be repeated shortly after it was stated? Do the candidates think the folks in the audience and watch at home are … (11 comments)

debate: Tom Brokaw anal timekeeper moderates the most dreary debate of all time. - 10/08/08 08:48 AM
  Where is all the indignation! When Gwen Ifill was lambasted for not being impartial she went out and proved herself to be a very good moderator who remained impartial whatever her personal opinions may be. Tom Brokaw (personal friend of John McCain) went out and proved that all he cared … (0 comments)

debate: I Hate Political Debates (Not Political) - 10/07/08 10:56 PM
I'm sure you're wondering how a Blog about political debates can be non-political but, I promise not to mention any of the candidates, their positions or their comments.  That's not my problem.  I already know who I'm voting for and I hope you do as well, I reall hope you just … (4 comments)

Obama is smarter than Palin!! So what??

debate: Debate Facts. - 10/03/08 09:41 AM
There's been some back and forth about "who won the 2nd debate".  I'm not sure if there was a decisive winner. I think that Biden did a better job, but Palin didn't implode as many were expecting... but in the spirit of full-disclosure, I'm a democrat... from Illinois, so I might … (15 comments)

debate: VP Debate Last Night - - - My Take - 10/03/08 09:28 AM
Biden was great in his presentation and didn't stumble at all.  Palin was awesome.  Held her poise and demeanor against a Washinton lifer. 
But...the debate results from a tax paying citizen.  Two things came to note:
1)  Biden was kind and courteous in not attacking Palin, but he spent his entire … (22 comments)

debate: Tonights debate - 10/02/08 09:27 PM
Anyone watching this?What a bunch of nonsense from both sides. We are on the edge of a 2nd great depression and those two are squabbling. We deserve better than this. What a bunch of baloney.

debate: Call the Commission on Presidential Debates - here's the # - 10/02/08 01:21 AM
10/30 phone # for commission In spite of the fact that we have come to take for granted the liberal bias of the mainstream media - it can still catch us off-balance when an overtly blatant example is shoved in our faces. If you haven't read about the travesty of … (16 comments)

9/30 vp debate Tomorrow evening our Vice-Presidential candidates will square off for a debate that has thus far garnered more media attention than any previous VP debate, and will probably beat even the Presidential debates for worldwide viewership. Whatever your views on the race or the individuals, wouldn't it seem … (36 comments)

debate: Thankful for McCain! - 09/26/08 07:20 PM
As many have commented already, the attacks on Sara Palin are ridiculous. Katie Couric & Charles Gibson's condescending attitude during the interviews, the newspapers tasteless cartoons making her look like a doofus and some of the skits are beyond tasteless. The ad about McCain's skin cancer and his age goes over the line as well.  I … (1 comments)

debate: OK - Let's Have the Debate with PALIN & O'BAMA in Mississippi - 09/25/08 12:17 PM
The first of 3 Presidential Debates will be held tomorrow evening and yet McCain seems to come across as a man that can only do one thing at a time.  We've already had 8 years of a President who can't think "Outside the Box".   To be a President, you … (47 comments)

debate: Obama and McCain At Saddleback Church - A Stark Difference! - 08/31/08 06:56 AM
Did you see the two presidential candidates being interviewed by Pastor Rick Warren at Saddleback church? I missed it when it originally aired. It certainly is fascinating to watch.

debate: It All Boils Down To The Vice Presidential Debate! - 08/30/08 10:43 PM
Now that we all know who the players are in the presidential race, it seems to me that regardless of all the hope, and dreams of change, the promises made, fingers pointed, accusations made and endless rhetoric, this whole thing will ultimately boil down to one single debate between Biden and … (8 comments)

debate: When Will This Crisis End...Seriously?: A Debate Pt. I - 03/28/08 01:14 PM
 
Incomes still catching upThose who bought at the peak of the cycle pinning their hopes on incomes rising and "catching up" instead to home prices may be better off finding ways to increase their income themselves. But they had better be patient. Average incomes simply aren't rising in tune with home … (0 comments)

     You know...muffled, loud "BLAH BLAH BLAH".  But if instead of trying to sort the large field out to find one you can support and vote for...try this quiz from the Washington Post.  YOU answer the questions  on the topics most Americans care about  for issues ahead of this country.  Then … (4 comments)

debate: Democracy in Myrtle Beach - 01/09/08 05:20 PM
Finishing out the first week of 2008 yesterday, I must say that I had hoped for a major change.  A huge shift.  The shudder of the commerce gear beginning to grind away.  Alas, no shudder... just the constant buzz of the polical machine heading towards South Carolina.
Yes, the debate is taking … (0 comments)

debate: Blog Comments and Personal Preferences-Debate or Communicate? - 01/01/08 10:07 PM

Isn't this world an interesting place? We're all unique, with our own personal preferences and ways of doing things. It's that unique individuality that keeps things fascinating.
My post today is on this topic, based on a recent comment left on my post about Florida's Vanishing Wetlands, by Jon Zolsky. Jon is … (17 comments)

debate: Two sides to every issue or problem? Not when I speak, or am I wrong? - 10/03/07 01:01 PM

Are you one-sided?  Do you think you know it all?  Do you pass judgment so quickly?  Or are you the reasonable person that will not judge so quickly, look at things from both sides, from all angles, before you make your decision?
For many of you that might have been thinking where … (16 comments)

debate: Your faith on display in real estate....or not - 08/04/07 02:52 PM
OK...I'm a Christian and Catholic.  So let's get that out of the way right away.  Both of those come with connotations of themselves.   A lot of Christians think that Catholics belong to the anti-christ and a lot of Catholics think that those who aren't Catholic are going to have a rough … (41 comments)

debate: Open Dialogue (and YES Sometimes Even Debate) Is HEALTHY - 07/22/07 01:34 PM
Hmmm...  I must say I'm slightly frustrated and a little confused.  Is it a common practice on this forum for people to simply delete your comments if they don't agree 100% with what you say?  What is the purpose of someone taking the time to comment if this is the case???

debate: "What is a 'Strafing Run' Blogger?" - Blog Tips for Rain Drips - 06/30/07 07:23 AM
I touched on this topic once before in a previous post aptly entitled, "One Way Traffic Jams on the ActiveRain Blogway." It garnered some fairly active response (nearly 200 comments). But with over 36,000 members and growing, it's something that bears repeating.
A 'Strafing Run' was a war-time battle tactic employed by … (213 comments)

debate: Rich Dad/Poor Dad Debate Over Asset vs Liability - 05/29/07 07:03 PM
I've been reading this book because I've heard so much positive feedback about it and I'm half way through.
Even the author says it's an undying debate as to weather your home is an asset or a liability. He sites the fact that in 1997, he knew some friends who were … (8 comments)

OK, I just survived my first five days of being 50. It wasn't too bad. Business is good and I was able to get out of bed every morning. I guess at 50 just getting out of bed is a good thing. So life is grand.
I must say though, I seem … (79 comments)

Don't worry, I'm not going to endorse any candidates here as much as I might like to.  I don't think I have to.   To anyone who attended tonight's Candidate Forum, it was pretty clear who the viable candiates were.  That is for any contested district that is less than or greater … (0 comments)
