Blazing Saddles....

Posted By Jack Day

Jim and all,

The biggest issue to me is that we are our own community, and a family in many ways.

Personal attacks on another user, are to me, grounds for a posts immediate deletion. Is that fair?

Off topic posts: That is what private messages are for. Beat each other up there if you must.

Elected officials, they are big boys & girls, knew the score going in and can take some heat.

I figure the elected representatives of our parties are partisan enough for all of us.

I would like to think that at a star party we could all share a beer, enjoy the night sky, and hang out. So lets keep things civil here, have some good debates, solve the worlds problems, and figure out a way to make a low cost widefield eyepiece, with good edge correction (Even in fast scopes!) and decent eye relief. Okay!

When I say "Share a beer" I mean each of us would have our own beer, or other beverage of choice... wink

The Limbaugh Petition

Posted By Jack Day

I think the line in the CNN story you reference says it all:

"Still, the DCCC petition not only provides an outlet for Democratic anger at Limbaugh, but also serves as a vehicle to gain names and e-mail addresses, presumably for later use in fundraising and organizing efforts."

They don't really care about Limbaugh, they just want your money. Definately sign up today and be assured of years of nagging emails asking for your support. In dollars.

I also like the forum you chose to have the sign up link posted from. Every post was against the petition. For various reasons about giving Rust publicity, not because the agree with him.

Let's start a petition to deny free speech! What a great country we live in now with President Obama as our moral compass.

So, shut up Limbaugh, who is next?

Posted By Jack Day

I think this is what these Obama supporters have in mind:

Actually, This Says It All

Posted By Jack Day

Yeah, the British people are great. SO much smarter than us.

We should be more like them: better healthcare, more tolerant of others, Sharia Courts, no more free speech. Yes, they are truely enlightened.

Why is it that Oil is at $40 a barrel, gas is goin

Posted By Jack Day

Simple economics. Demand went down, Cost of oil and gas went down. People are driving more again now as gas is 1/2 the cost of last years high. Demand is going up, price goes up. If we had more refining capacity this would not be the case as much.

I am sure there is manipulation built in. But all these smart Senators and Congressmen (Women) still have been able to catch them at it or figure it out. My guess is that some are on the take to help prevent the truth from coming to light.

Are you sure he is still a Republican? I would suspect the inlaws would have slipped something into his drink long ago! 8)

Posted By Jack Day

Could someone come up with a Readers Digest condensed version of this thread? I tried to read it, but there are so many quotes of quotes of quotes of quotes... that I began to lose my will to live. 8)

Also, can I get extra butter with that?
