GREAT IDEA.
Senator Obama, I’m very happy you have come around to the realizing the importance of talking to each instead of throwing zingers from afar and with your new found wisdom, I think you will agree to weekly debates. So I will ask you now, will you commit to them now?

DO NOT MISS THIS FRIGHTENING THREAD ABOUT OBAMA USING LAW ENFORCEMENT AGAINST FREE SPEECH
Obama will ramble on in his monotone voice incoherently and never seem to get to the point.
No worries....
Rudy Giullani, Cindy and John McCain on their way to the first debate.
Looks like the hunting season has started. Wonder if they'll call in Sarah Palin to field dress the carcass before the night is over.
This early thread reminds me of when my children would put on Halloween costumes at 3 PM and wait 3 hours for it to get dark...the excitement mounts.
This is good. But you forget the adverb...."REPEATEDLY".
Heh.
I would rather have a REBATE!! Like of all the tax i have ever paid.
They've been telling people all day to join them at 9 p.m., and it's on my on-screen cable schedule.
How long is this nightmare “debate” supposed to last, anyway?
I just received this idea via e-mail..interesting..
Here’s an alternative idea on the bailout.
I’m against the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG.
Instead, I’m in favor of giving $85,000,000,000 to America in a We
Deserve It Dividend.
To make the math simple, let’s assume there are 200,000,000 bonafide
U.S. Citizens 18+.
Our population is about 301,000,000 +/- counting every man, woman and
child. So 200,000,000 might be a fair stab at adults 18 and up..
So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billon that equals
$425,000.00.
My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as a We Deserve It
Dividend.
Of course, it would NOT be tax free. So let’s assume a tax rate of
30%.
Every individual 18+ has to pay $127,500.00 in taxes.
That sends $25,500,000,000 right back to Uncle Sam.
But it means that every adult 18+ has $297,500.00 in their pocket. A
husband and wife has $595,000.00.
What would you do with $297,500.00 to $595,000.00 in your family?
Pay off your mortgage - housing crisis solved.
Repay college loans - what a great boost to new grads Put away money
for college - it’ll be there Save in a bank - create money to loan to
entrepreneurs.
Buy a new car - create jobs
Invest in the market - capital drives growth Pay for your parent’s
medical insurance / health care improves Enable Deadbeat Dads to come
clean or else
Remember this is for every adult U S Citizen 18+ including the folks
who lost their jobs at Lehman Brothers and every other company that is
cutting back. And of course, for those serving in our Armed Forces.
If we’re going to re-distribute wealth let’s really do it...instead of
trickling out a puny $1000.00 (vote buy) economic incentive that is
being proposed by one of our candidates for President.
If we’re going to do an $85 billion bailout, let?s bail out every
adult US Citizen 18+!
As for AIG ? liquidate it.
Sell off its parts.
Let American General go back to being American General.
Sell off the real estate.
Let the private sector bargain hunters cut it up and clean it up.
Here’s my rationale. We deserve it and AIG doesn’t.
Sure it’s a crazy idea that can “never work.”
But can you imagine the Coast-To-Coast Block Party!
How do you spell Economic Boom?
I trust my fellow adult Americans to know how to use the
$85 Billion
We Deserve It Dividend more than I do the geniuses at AIG or in
Washington DC .
And remember, The Birk plan only really costs $59.5 Billion because
$25.5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.
Ahhh...I feel so much better getting that off my chest.
Kindest personal regards,

It’s the same trick the liberals use to use up time and eventually people will forget the original question.
Don’t answer the question and take a long time to do it.
I'm just dreading that there won't be anything else on tv.
I need my tv.
Word is that Obama plans to attack McCain right off the back and try to make Mccain get antagonized and McCain is going to remain looking Presidential...let Obama attack, when it is all over he will emerge as a jerk and no one will have any more answers about who he is than they did before the debate. If he is on the attack that way and doesn’t define who he is-—he will lose.
I want the DNC to pay $10 every time obamalamadingdong says “you know, um or ah...ah.”
Could probably retire the whole state of Michigan, a few million Canadians and buy a case of Ripple for every dead rat voter.
Look that is LOGICAL. They will never do it. They are talkin a trillion bucks baby. Thats a lot of cake. There is only 3% of the home foreclosed so what the F!!! is goin on here. Somethin is FISHY!!! BIG TIME!!!
