7. The No Call List for Telemarketers. . .
I'll give him credit where credit is due. I just wish he'd take responsibility for the rest of his acts.

12. You beat me to it. That's the ONLY good thing I can think of that he has
done since taking over the White House. The next good thing I predict he'll do is leave one day.

8. He paid off his political debts...
Oh, wait...

Now that I stop to think about it, that's not a good thing. That's what put Mike Brown in charge of FEMA.

You know, it's funny...I've known two Mike Browns personally...one was about a useless p.o.s. with no drive, no ambition, and the brains of a turnip, and the other was a former plant manager who used to come out on the floor and give us advice regarding things he knew nothing about.

The name has a history for me. And this latest one hasn't done anything to disabuse me of the notion that there's just something wrong about giving your kid this name.

That's just weird, isn't it?

11. Exercise!
He's been twiddling his thumbs so fast that he's got them pretty buffed up. I hear he can play his Playstation games three times faster than anyone on his Secret Service detail because of those buff thumbs of his.

13. Old Standby: Do Not Call List.
But that's as far as it goes.

I personally like it but I'm not a telemarketer trying to make a living in a "free" country.

20. Actually, at first glance I thought 'No Child Left Behind'
was going to be a winner. What an utter nightmare! It has been a steamer left on the desk of every underpaid educator.

30. Hahaha - count me in there too.
As the DLC took the Dems to the right, Bush was pushing me much harder to the left ! I knew Bush was gonna be bad, but he has shocked me with the rate he & the robber barons have taken us down. If we EVER get this country back, we can never let this happen again. The neocons know it and they are stealing as fast as they can before their final ouster.

Of course, even if my politics had not changed, I would still be an anti-American radical because I've always been a Democrat and happen to prefer a rational gocvernment.

Complete destruction of the credibility of the Republican party will be this man's legacy.

Even this needs to be confirmed by reliable sources.

33. He's....
He's turned me into a Democrat... as well as all my family.

He did have some help -- Haley Barbor, and me working in a community health center where I actually spent time with those that have less money.
