My mother just sent me this e-mail and I cannot believe this crap.
Grandma left me a voicemail saying that Obama is a Muslim and that his campaign funding has come largely from terrorists. Is it true? What should we do?
I can’t believe I always have to deal with a bunch of misinformed Republican butt kissing [...]

Why not?
Because it looks awful when it moves. RGB pixel psychedelics like crazy.
It also makes McCain look old. There’s a reason why you only see polticians wear solid color ties and it is a very well known fact that wearing a striped tie on TV is a bad idea. I don’t understand how the McCain [...]

The best course of action is to sit on my hands in 100% cash and do nothing until the risk/reward ratio becomes very favorable. Sure, the economic situation is [...]

I’m sure you’ve seen this bumper sticker many times. It has a W with a red circle and a slash through it meaning no George W. Bush.

I guess that means no John McCain. That’s ghetto, man.

Obama leads McCain in all regions by a decent margin, except for the south where McCain completely blows Obama out of the water.
I say we kick these bastards out of the union. They are also wasting our federal tax dollars. If you are wondering where your federal tax dollars go, they go to the south.
It’s [...]
