Last Day Folks! Thanks for letting me do the threads.

Last night was GREAT! You can tell by the amount of slime that is being thrown us. Break out the poopcorn, it's going to be another late night!

I really like them. We had a contract on a contigency basis and we would only need them permanently if we landed the contract permanent. we signed the permanent deal this afternoon so tomorrow I’m calling them in and telling them they’re hired.

The best part is it will be at 1.50 an hour more than they were told the perm rate would be and 4.50 more than the temp rate (they were making 13 an hour now will be making 17.50 we said perm rate would be 16 but the permanent deal was even better than we expected)

There was no excuse for him to give a yawner. He's been prepping for this for AT LEAST 8 years. Unacceptable for both Sarah and Obama to show him up in his most important speech of his career.

Yes, he's done his duty. Yes, it's beyond asking that he pull off another miracle. But he's our only damn hope. For all the talk, HE is the professional pol still in the race on our side.

Yep, his speech definitely built in momentum and he really connected with & touched me towards the end. He had the great video lead-in and rallied to a rousing finish with Sarah by his side.

People who have not been there, will never get it. I don't get it. My husband is a Combat Vietnam Vet. 1st/7th Cav, Infantry. Not a POW, but he can hardly share anything about that time, and I don't even try to say I understand. I just hold him when he needs to be held, follow him when he can lead and pray that he will some day find peace.

He said tonight, after John's sharing about being broken, that he knew what he meant. My husband, as usual did not elaborate, but....... it's their thing. Those who have served. I am eternally grateful and humbled by those who willingly go into harms way.

My husband was not drafted. But he figured that rather then waiting to be drafted he would volunteer. He was in college and the protesters burned him up. He put his money where his mouth was and so did John McCain.

the trap of being brainwashed by the
MSM claptrap. Think.

I’m glad Rush is getting involved with getting his views out.

He’s jazzed about Palin being the VP after pushing for her on his radio show. He was on the phone with Neil Cavuto this afternoon-a very good analysis segment.

Rush knows what is at stake here. And he knows he can influence. We’ll see a lot of him in the next sixty days.

Boy, was THAT good!

I also like your sad screen name ...

I bet there’s millions under, say, age 45 or 50 who don’t know any of the details.

There is an axiom among journalists and commentators:

Those who can, get to work in broadcast or cable-based media. Those who can't, work at MSNBC.

BS, America is bigger than one president. We’ve survived Revolution, Civil War, World Wars, Depressions, Recessions, Carters and Clintons. To say that some of the policies you disagree with McCain on will destroy this great country is an idiotic country. The beauty of America is we will survive in spite of what happens in Washington, not because of it. That is the heart of Conservativism, the power of the individual in spite of what happens in DC.

We don’t want liberal pessism around here, we are better than that. We aren’t looking for someone to say “I’m from the government and I’m here to help”, we are voting for a Commander in Chief of the US Armed Forces, and I’ll be damned if I let someone like oBambi get it. (and even if he does, America will survive.)

Preach it FRiend!

That would explain why I don’t know who he is. Although I do know who Keith Olberman is - former sports guy who was possessed by a demon. Sad case.
