6. always confused about that statement.
what good does pounding sand do? Make smaller particles of sand? You sure won't get glass out of mere pounding.

And why tell us that people who "hate" Obama should waste their time in a senseless activity?
most people, the vast majority in fact, do not "hate" Obama. Many are understandably disappointed, some sorely. We want him to succeed, and often we disagree with the means and methods he chose, not to mention the DLC clones and conservatives he populated his administration with.

So, what are you really trying to say?

"your either with us or against us".

It's the simple black and white thinking that got us into this mess.

by the way, I like your snark. :)

Cheers.

9. That's what I'd like to know... And we might find out, if we could avoid the "hater" Accusations...
Damn it, I am so sick of that crap showing up on every damned thread.

So, can anyone offer a clarification as to what Katrina meant by that? Was she just being "rhetorical" or suggesting that is the new policy for the administration towards the RETHUGS?

7. Just in time for the re-election campaign.
I guess some people's jobs are worth fighting for. Other people's......not so much.
