I am sure this has probably been discussed here by now, but I did a search and didn't see anything. I don't come here often, so sorry if the post wasn't done correctly. But what's up with Trump's using "You can't always get what you want" as the song played after each of his speeches? Is he telling us that we should go ahead on settle on him, vs. other candidates we may have wanted? Does anyone have any explanation as to what this was chosen? It sure doesn't sound like much of a victory song! In fact, after he...

Prayers/Scriptures for Election Presidential Prayer Team website ^ | 2004 | Presidential Prayer Team Posted on Friday, February 01, 2008 10:00:17 PM by Joann37 I found some Scripture references pertaining to the 2004 Presidential Election at the Presidential Prayer Team website. But the actual Scriptures were left out; only the references and the way in which we could apply them were listed. So I added the Scriptures (all are from the NIV). Many of us here are so concerned about the outcome of Tuesday's election. So PLEASE consider taking these Scriptures (and distributing to others, if you feel so compelled)...

I need help!!!! After much back and forth with other browsers, I found that I needed to get back to IE7. So I installed it, but when I go to open it up, it appears for a split second and vanishes. So I have to revert to Firefox, which I am having other issues with. As usual, the Microsoft website was of little help (a few others had this problem, but the solutions were of no help). Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can fix this problem? Thanks in advance.

Fmr. Rep. and fmr. presidential candidate Duncan Hunter is on Fox News now, He is TRYING to put forth some excellent points re: our economy, but Hannity won't seem to let him finish a sentence.

Newt Gingrich gave an excellent speech at the First Baptist Church in Atlanta, entitled "Rediscovering God in America". It can be viewed here: http://www.intouch.org/site/c.dhKHIXPKIuE/b.2287421/k.944D/This_Week_on_TV.htm

Glenn Beck is on now, being interviewed by Anderson Cooper. I saw part of this the other day; it seemed like a good interview. Beck is talking about his new book, "An Inconvenient Book". Talking about illegal immigration right now; other topics to follow.

Tell the NFL to Suspend Michael Vick! NFL star Michael Vick, of the Atlanta Falcons, has been indicted by a federal grand jury on felony dogfighting charges. Vick is charged with violating federal laws against competitive dogfighting, procuring and training pit bulls for fighting, and conducting the enterprise across state lines. In a raid conducted on April 25 and 26, local and state law enforcement officials found 70 dogs—including at least 60 pit bulls and many dogs who reportedly were neglected, scarred, and malnourished—on quarterback Vick's rural Surry County, Virginia, property. Some of the animals evidently bear scars and injuries,...

Joe Scarborough is on now, and is blaming other agencies, unlike most of the MSM, who is zeroing in on FEMA and the Bush administration. He pointed out that Michael Brown/FEMA handled four hurricanes in Florida very successfully. The difference was that Jeb Bush did an incredible job, and so did the locals. He and even his guest, Julia (forgot her last name), editor of Vanity Fair, stated that the locals (state and municipal) down there were a bunch of clowns. Very good show tonight. It reruns in the middle of the night if anyone wants to catch it again.

Has anyone taken this training? They start you out with a 3 day seminar for $99, but then want you to sign up (starting at ~$8K) for other courses. The cirriculum sounds pretty good but I don't know whether it would be worth it. I Googled and cannot find anything at all as to whether this class would be worthwhile. NOTE: This is not the Star Trader software that is sold in the UK; this is from a firm in Florida that is selling the training. Thank you.

I just turned on the radio, and Rush said he was in a "foul" mood, and would no longer talk about it. Since that's the first I tuned in, I don't know what he meant. He doesn't often get really upset, so I'm wondering what's got his goat today?

Wead: "Forgo TV For A Time" Doug Wead, the man who taped his pre-presidential conversations with George W. Bush, cancelled his appearance on MSNBC's Hardball with Chris Matthews and sent a note to Hardball producers yesterday explaining why: Dear Mr. Matthews, I am so sorry to cancel your show. It was very gracious of you to allow me a chance to share my heart and regrets about recent events. It seems the better part of wisdom for me to forgo television for a time. It would only add to the distraction I have caused to the president's important and historic...

Kerry Criticizes Election Outcome BOSTON (AP) - Sen. John Kerry, in some of his most pointed public comments yet about the presidential election, invoked Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy on Monday as he criticized President Bush and decried reports of voter disenfranchisement. The Massachusetts Democrat, Bush's challenger in November, spoke at Boston's annual Martin Luther King Day Breakfast. He reiterated that he decided not to challenge the election results, but ``thousands of people were suppressed in the effort to vote.'' ``Voting machines were distributed in uneven ways. In Democratic districts, it took people four, five, eleven hours to vote, while...

This was on before - very funny. Should be on in a few minutes.

Scarborough is currently discussing the heroism of the Swift Boat Vets and their impact on the election. He is lauding their efforts big time, and trashing the MSM. Next, he'll discuss the Oil for Food scandal. His show hasn't been that good lately but it's very good tonight. His panel includes Pat Buchanan, Jack Burkman, John Fund and Leslie Marshall (a liberal radio host).

Many of us were critical of Lawrence O'Donnell's condescending attitude toward Pres. Bush's faith when O'Donnell was on Scarborough Country. Pat Buchanan is in for Joe tonight, and in the next segment, O'Donnell will debate the president's faith. Pat said they received a ton of criticism over O'Donnell's remarks yesterday. ON RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Kerry cancels visit to West Virginia churchBy WSAZ NewsChannel 3 WSAZ-TVHuntington, WVUSA - A visit to West Virginia by Democratic Presidential Candidate John Kerry has been put on hold. Kerry was scheduled to attended services at the Apostolic Christ Cathedral in Guyandotte on Sunday. West Virginia Senators Robert C. Byrd and Jay Rockefeller were to attend with Kerry. The church pastor, Reverend E. S. Harper, said they were not welcome if they planned to discuss politics during the service. The Kerry campaign says the church issue did not affect the decision to cancel the trip.

Proverbs 29:14 If a king judges the poor with fairness His throne will always be secure. I am going to stand on this Scripture, and repeat it constantly until the election. I do believe the President has treated the poor well, and so his victory is ensured. God does not lie!!!!!!!!!!!

Does anyone know if a transcript is available, or did anyone see, the Don Imus/Jim Lehrer interview? I've seen a few references to it in other postings, but would like to see the whole thing, if possible. I did a search and nothing came up. Thanks.

Just a reminder if anyone wants to watch, as we've previously discussed his upcoming appearance. I haven't watched 60 Minutes in about 10 years, but I found that it's on 7 p.m. ET (where I live, at least).
