Obama and McCain both duke it out for the “most like Jimmy Carter” title.

Cold and in the dark

Visualize Kansas in the summertime without air conditioning. THis is the immediate future since power will soon be rationed due to lack of sufficient power plants. Eliminating energy-hog air-conditioning in southern and western states will bring those red states to their knees....

"We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK," Obama said

we need their permission??

I suggest a new theme song for the Obama Campaign. It's catchy!

-—”We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK,” Obama said.-—

In my own house, with my own hard-earned money, in America, I don’t give a damn about what some “other country” thinks. This kind of talk by Obama shows we should feel some kind of guilt because we’ve been successful? Will Obama turn doen the White House thermastat, refuse Air Force One, refuse a Presidental Limo? Of course not.

Hypocrite.

I've cut back drastically on how much I drive; I've significantly reduced the amount I eat; and we keep our thermostat in our home at 76 degrees Mr. O. Hussein B. How much have you sacrificed you elitist liberal thief (gorging yourself at the public trough)!!!!!

Growing up, I had to clean my plate to help the starving kids in other parts of the world. Now I have to go hungry to help them?

Like when I was trying unsuccessfully to fly a kite and my wife yelled out to me, "You need more tail!"

But the night before she tells me to go fly a kite.

Make up your mind!

Why thank you, but by the time the tomatoes got to Az., they’d likely be stewed.~

Rosie O'donut, Michael Moron and AlGore are deeply saddened. Bar Rock Hussein Osama sure knows how to stick his foot into his mouth.
