Hey! Mike's back

[av8torntn]

I'm surprised you don't ask for a recount.

What is he a democrat also?

 

[chev]

chev, okay. I always have to be exact with you.
Mccain got 46%
Obama got 53%

Then we will have to agree to disagree.
IMO, a landslide would be around 70%-30%. I was under the impression you were only talking about the presidential election. I didn't realize "O" ran for so many other offices at the same time. What you are suggesting is that he is responsible for the dem senators winning their seats off his coat tails. I would think they might be a bit insulted by that. You mean they didn't win those seats on their own merit?
Well, he must really be some hero.

I'm surprised you don't ask for a recount.

Republican candidates don't whine and beg for recounts. They know how to gracefully concede. Unlike Gore

 

[tieguy]

chev, okay. I always have to be exact with you. Here's what I mean by LANDSLIDE.

Mccain got 163 Electoral votes
Obama got 364 Electoral Votes

McCain got 57,434,084 votes
Obama got 65,431,955 votes

Mccain got 46%
Obama got 53%

And Missouri is still to close to call with 11 electoral votes

Obamas coattails have now brought in 57 senators and still counting.

Check Fox News if you don't believe me.

That is a LANDSLIDE. However, you can spin it anyway you want if it makes you feel better. I'm surprised you don't ask for a recount.

no credible source would list a voting percentage in the low 50's a landslide. Wikopedia does not even consider Reagans 84 percentage of 58 percent as a landslide popular vote.

However you should consider congress destruction of Bushs economy as a candidate. their destruction was so swift and so complete that they are sure to qualify for this dubious distinction.

Got to hand it to you tie, you stay on target...

or is that a broken record?

TIEGUY, Let me see if I understand you.

Bush has run the country for two (2) terms or the last eight (8) years.

Republicans have had a Republican congress and Senate during the bush years.

FACTCHECK: Democrats only took control of congress less than two (2) years ago

Can you imagine if a Democrat caused all this damage? WOW!!

And you have chosen to spin the failed "Trickle Down" on the Democrats?

TIEGUY, You just need to join the handful of Republicans that are searching for new leadership and ideas. It sounds like your not going to listen to a word I say and your head just keeps spinning this LANDSLIDE in your own way.

 

[tieguy]

TIEGUY, Let me see if I understand you.

Bush has run the country for two (2) terms or the last eight (8) years.

Republicans have had a Republican congress and Senate during the bush years.

Correct up to this point we had a growing thriving health economy.

FACTCHECK: Democrats only took control of congress less than two (2) years ago

Correct once they took over the economy went from one of the best to one of the worst. You're starting to catch on. there may be hope for you yet.

TIEGUY, If that's your whole argument. Good look and did you forget during the two (2) years of the Dem Congress The Republican George W Bush was in charge of our great country. Oh! Tieguy, Remember Bush Sr also tried to blame the Dem Congress for his failed "Trickle Down"

That boat didn't float then

That boat don't float now.

But nice spin.

@ spin

 

[Babagounj]

Well, CHEV, Your kind of starting to sound like one of those "CRAZY" right wingers. I take it you'd like to be first in line to take out your gun and shoot our new president.

Point of order is needed here..........
Since its is a known fact that O's father was a man of Islamic faith , thus under Islamic law ( sharia ) he too could be considered to be one of the same faith. Then he would be guilty of Islamic apostasy, the traditional punishment for apostasy ,leaving Islam for another religion or otherwise abandoning the Islamic faith, is death.
So the list of possible "CRAZY"s to undertake this idea goes beyond your statement.

Mike hard to deny. Before the democratic congress we had a healthy growing economy. Since they took over it went to hell. There are no boats in this discussion.

Why would your democratic congress want to maintain the excellent results bush had going when it would only help the republicans in this election.

Pretty obvious what happened here.

OH MY GOD!!! Baba gounj, Did you read your post after you wrote it? Talk about being a lost Republican trying to find your way.

Baba gounj, Senator Mccain lost in a LANDSLIDE. OBAMA will be our next US President. It's time to get over this devastaing defeat. Mccain/Palin are not coming back. None of your SPIN is going to change that.

Lets talk about the positive future of our wonderful country.

I wonder if it would not be considered apostasy if a democratic run congress destroys a terrific economy for political gain?

 

[Babagounj]

OH MY GOD!!! Baba gounj, Did you read your post after you wrote it? Talk about being a lost Republican trying to find your way.
Why yes I did.
I never said a was a Replublican, that 's your narrow mindness at work.

Baba gounj, Senator Mccain lost in a LANDSLIDE.
There you go again with the misconception .

OBAMA will be our next US President.
Maybe. A lot of things can happen in the next few weeks. Natural & man made.

It's time to get over this devastaing defeat. Mccain/Palin are not coming back. None of your SPIN is going to change that.
Again I never said I liked McCain ( Palin , yes )
I'm not spinning anything, just reporting somethings I have read about.

Lets talk about the positive future of our wonderful country.

Yes to a positive future without Socialism.

 

[Catatonic]

I am so glad I have this to read today.
I was hoping my grandson was coming over but alas, he is not.
This thread reminds of our times together -
Hobie: You're a goober boy
Grandson: No I'm not. Your a poopie head
Hobie: Don't be eating your boogers
Grandson: I didn't eat no booger. Mama, Hobie is telling lies! Hobie, your breath stinks.
Hobie: Good, I'm going to breathe on you.
Grandson: Nooooo! You're a big fat meany.
Hobie: You cry like a girl.
Grandson: No I don't, I'm gonna beat up up.
Hobie: I don't think so, I think girls can beat you up.
Cartman: I wouldn't let any girl kick my butt. I'd say, "Get your beyotch axe back in that kitchen and make me some pot pie."
Grandson: Who was that Hobie.
Hobie: That was Cartman from South Park
Grandson: He's fat!
Cartman: I'm not fat, I'm big-boned
Hobie: Don't mess with Cartman or you'll wind up like Kenny
Grandson: Whose Kenny?
Hobie: He’s the kid on South Park that mumbles like you
Grandson: I don’t mumble anymore, I’m getting real good at talking! You got hairs in your nose…Yuk!

And so on and so on.

 

[cheryl]

CHERYL, I could understand some of the other folks in here making a comment like that. But from you? The owner of the BrownCafe? CHEV, above talked about OBAMA not surviving his first term and you didn't say a word. CHERYL, all your doing by taking sides in your own CAFE (YES IT IS YOUR CAFE) is trying to scare off a large number of hits to your website that you were hoping for when you first started the CAFE.

CHERYL, As I mentioned in the thread above your better off remaining Neutral and let the conversation happen. Now I could understand if a person is using profanity or just outright lies

However, You (the owner of the cafe) has taken the time to comment on a cafe member that has never used profanity or lied.

CHERYL, THE impression would be that your letting your own emotions get the best of you and it's yourself that is a conservative Republican that doesn't like the idea of a UPS Democrat voicing his opinion against the curent failed policy of the Bush Adminastration.

I hope your not going to tell me next. "Get your own UPS website". OR, "It's free so be quiet" I know if I ran a UPS website. I would open it up to all Teamster UPS'ers and there are both Republican and Democrat UPS'ers

I have already had one THREAD moved because I spoke out in favor of OBAMA. This TREAD has been placed in the correct area and no foul words have been spoken by me.

CHERYL, If your going to be offended by every UPS'er that speaks out on a political subject, Your going to be moving a lot of threads or deleting posts. Also, if it ofFends you that much, why not just keep this forum all about UPS issues ONLY.

CHERYL, I'm not out to get you and I haven't told you what to do in your own CAFE. I'm just giving suggestions.

Anyway, I hope you consider that.

MIKE

Gosh Mike, that was quite a leap... ??? You've jumped to a whole bunch of conclusions about my personal beliefs and emotional state based upon a post that merely quotes the site's terms of service.

I purposely keep my political opinions to myself and stay out of these discussions. There are probably only 2 or 3 people that use this website that have any clue what my political beliefs are, and I'm married to one of them.

This forum isn't a bully pulpit for any side, all political opinions are welcome. Anyone can express whatever opinion they want to but there is a line that shouldn't be crossed. Reinforcing your arguments with evidence or explanations is fine, attacking your adversary's character or personal situation is not.

CHERYL, Perhaps we are both on the same page. I agree completly with the "Terms of Service"

Perhaps I misunderstod when you singled out my thread and my post to leave a comment.

Anyway, I wasn't streased out on anything. Just responding.

Carry On with the CAFE.

perhaps you could strengthen your post to sound like an apology rather then a retreat?

 

[Catatonic]

I think the likelihood of that is about the same as an apology from Bush on the state of the nation.

Neither sees the relevance.

TIEGUY, Are you lost?

Hey

Well, they traced obamas family history and on his moms side, They are from Ireland. Seriously.
