Balancing Hearts and Heads

Congratulations

This moronic scumbag Samuel J. Wurzelbacher "Joe the Plumber" had his AZ driver license suspended

http://www.eastvalleytribune.com/story/128323

Wurzelbacher, who lived in Mesa in 2000 and had an Arizona driver's license, had his driver's license suspended by the Arizona Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division on May 4, 2000, following a nonpayment of a court-imposed fine for civil traffic violations, according to court records.

...owes nearly $1,200 in back taxes, according to public records, still owes more than $700 to the Mesa court system.

Records show he was cited for failure to stop at a red light and for failure to provide proof of insurance on Feb. 9, 2000, in a black Dodge truck at the intersection of Dobson and Baseline roads in Mesa.

After failing to pay his original fine of $627.50 issued in March 2000, his license was suspended and the fine was handed over to a collection agency along with a 16 percent surcharge. The now-resident of Holland, Ohio, still owes $727.90 to the Mesa Municipal Court, according to court records.

Hopefully the collection agency will break both of his legs so he'll never be able to walk nor work ever again. This typical Republican scumbag deserves it.

with great pain, we have to ask one question- is either candidates qualified to face the enormous global challenges with out any WHITE candidates in the Cabinet. Obama certainly cannot afford to hire only Black candidates- let us be sure, there is NO JOB SKILL for the position among Black advisors. Majority will be Whites who served in the previous administrations. By the way, does that bring about envisioned CHANGE- absolutely not

when Maccain/Palin is tied with Bush, every thing is a horror story. People only look at one side of the coin regarding Maccain. The "CHANGE" proclaimed by Obama, the only change we all see will be the Afroamerican, otherwise called BLACK. Truth is Americans are bending over backwards, apolegitically, to correct what had happened in the history of America. Whites are exclusively blamed. Just a simple question-have the hearts and minds of the people have truly changed. simple answer is "NO". Even in the most liberal states like CA and MA, the majority hide their truly feelings- heard of the word "FEAR" of reprisal both in the public and private sectors. Why do see onlr these heavy weight BLACKS with very little intelligence hired and signed for NFL. How many quarter backs are BLACK? This may sound unreal, but when we turn the pages backward and forwards, it is simple, pardon the truth "Hire the black Gorillas". So called liberal whites as well as blacks truly believe that there is a difference. When I came to this country in 1960s from India, they gave me far lower salary, later when they realised my knowledge and work ethics far superior to the white residents, they apologitically offered equal pay as well as made me the chief resident in NY state. White America speaks one thing and hides the other face. Times have changed, but the minds have not changed that much.This election year, Americans are farcical, but want to show the world they are ready to elect a Black. When one looks around the world, most countries have had women and Blacks elected to high office-Thacher, UN, Indira Gandhi and so on so forth. Barcak Obama has nothing to offer, accept the word "CHANGE". He could not change the Rev Wright, but Obama just changed the CHURCH- he is going to change Americans, for what- a lowly THIRD WORLD COUNTRY.

To deny the Armenian Genocide, Turs make themselves look like Nazis or Jewish Holocaust deniers, in America we do not consider those type of people "American". Turks must accept the fact that their country comitted a jihad (Christian Genocide) , They raped babies, women, boys, girls, mutilated and chopped into pieces Christian people.Most countries have offcially recognized the Genocide.
to.

I think all Turkish-Americans should be proud that Obama wants recognize the Armenian Genocide. It makes them true Americans and patriotic to admit the genocide their muslim country committed on Christian Armenians in 1915. In Turkey it is against the law to say publicly that the Armenian Genocide even happened. Journalists like Hrant Dink have been killed because he talked about it.Winner Orhan

Ankara- It is almost the right time for Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Turkish Armed Forces, Turkish Media, and Turkish intellectuals to restart an important major task prior and after US presidential elections.

If the winner would be the Republican candidate, it is relatively easy. Their Presidential advisers, their think-tank organizations, their staff all know the details and red lines of mutual relations, they clearly know the difficult boundaries, sensitive issues, importance of Turkey in her geography.

When the winner would be the Democrat candidate, we should start to educate the newcomer, and his/her staff/ advisers, what they can expect, what they can say, what not to say.

If one wish to be comfortable in the region, one should keep in mind that Turkey is the key member. As a recent non-permanent member of UN Security Council, it is already certified that Turkey is a regional and emerging power. Turkey is an indispensable ally. There is no peace nor stability without Turkey.

One should not say, not even to think to take, any direct statement on Armenia, Northern Cyprus, Northern Iraq without prior consent of Turkish side.

The outcome of the contrary is not so easy to foresee and nor to comprehend. Hence both sides pay consequences dramatically.

One should expect the consequences when Adana Incirlik Air Base be closed.

It is your writers humble observation that Mr. Obama is giving misfortunate free speeches with no obligation, on above very sensitive issues during his campaign.

It is our sincere feeling that his staff, his advisers have to give him clear briefing what he can say, what he cannot say on these critical issues.

We all agree that there is now a clear consensus on who is the world superpower in this financial turmoil. It is not incorrect to say that there is almost no superpower left in the world, however there are certain regional powers in every region. It is a hard reality that in Caucasus, we all understood who is the governing/ supreme power there.

In the east corner of Mediterranean sea, Turkey has certain substantial gravity. Similarly, Turkey has also governing gravity certainly on the Northern Iraq. Northern Iraq, Armenia and Cyprus issues are too important for both countries not to be left at the mercy of selfish Diaspora in the USA.

It is our sincere understanding that the Campaign speeches already spent the US Internal politics can not be continued in long term in the International Platforms/ Affairs. We all know that Obama is a very cleaver intellectual and he will get that education in a very short period of time.

I agree that Obama appears to be the better choice. However, name calling and calls for violence because someone else holds an opposing view have no place in American politics or American life. This stereotypical "liberal" type of behavior is exactly what cost Democrats the White House for 8 years. No person is perfect...let's debate the real issues with a proper level of maturity, an open mind, and a clean vocabulary.

A military "operation" would not last 34 years. Turkey has a military OCCUPATION in Cyprus. Turkey did INVADE Cyprus in 1974 & continues to occupy thousands of Greek-Cypriot homes in North Cyprus (which was illegally declared Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and denounced by UN Security Council Resolution 541.

If you're voting based on Turkish issues, then you should be voting in Turkish elections IN TURKEY. GO HOME. You can come here for a vacation once in a while.

FUN QUOTES FROM PALIN
I got all of these quotes off of google quotes
You really couldn't make up this kind of stuff up if you wanted to
This all part of the reason why so many important republicans have been saying she
is a joke

When asked about her foreign policy experience she said
"As Putin rears his head," she said, referring to Russian prime Minister Vladimir Putin, "and comes into the airspace of the United States of America, where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border."
TELLING THE TRUTH FOR A CHANGE SHE HAD THIS TO SAY ABOUT HER RUN FOR VP
"It's time that normal Joe Six-Pack American is finally represented in the position of vice-presidency"
WHEN ASKED TO NAME ONE SUPREME COURT DECISION AND NOT BEING ABLE TO SHE CAME UP WITH THIS ANSWER
"I'm in that sense a federalist, where I believe that states should have more say in the laws of their lands and individual areas"
when asked again to name one decision she responded
"Well, let's see. There's -- of course -- in the great history of America rulings there have been rulings"
When asked about being a redneck she said
"Someone called me a `redneck woman' once. You know what I said back? `Thank-you very much.'"
when asked what promises she might not be able to keep
"How long have I been at this, like five weeks? So there hasn't been a whole lot that I've promised, except to do what is right..."

Talking to dobson about prayer she said
"It is that intercession that is so needed and so greatly appreciated," Palin told Dobson. "And I can feel it too, Dr. Dobson. I can feel the power of prayer, and that strength that is provided through our prayer warriors across this nation."

When asked about being a environmentalist she originally said
"I'm not an Al Gore, doom-and-gloom environmentalist blaming the changes in our climate on human activity."
when asked again later if she thought people had a impact on global warming
"Show me where I have ever said that there's absolute proof that nothing that man has ever conducted or engaged in has had any effect or no effect on climate change,"
asked about voting she said
"I truly believe that the wisdom of the people will be rebuilt on [Election Day]. As they enter that voting booth, they will understand the stark contrast between the two tickets,"
when asked how mccain did at his first debate
"I just thought he was great, because the American people are angry, and John McCain is angry, too
when asked about tina feys imitation of her she said
"I watched it with the volume all the way down," Palin said. "I thought it was hilarious."

IS SHE KIDDING IS THIS WHOLE THING A JOKE
IS IT REALLY POSSIBLE SOMEONE COULD BE THIS CLUELESS
SOMEONE THAT THINKS THEY COULD RUN THE COUTRY NOW LESS
VOTE OBAMA BIDEN NOW AND SEND HER BACK TO ALASKA

Sarah palin when asked about becoming vp responded

"As for that VP talk all the time, I tell you, I still can't answer that question until somebody answers for me, 'what is it exactly that the VP does every day......"

After she had been the nominee for around 2 months she was asked again and this time said

[T]hey???re in charge of the U.S. Senate so if they want to they can really get in there with the senators and make a lot of good policy changes that will make life better for Brandon and his family and his classroom.

If she doenst know what the vice pres or presidant does why would we give her the job

mccain has around a 40 percent chance because of his age in not being able to

complete his term

picking palin was about as smart as picking any other mrs alaska contestant

lets send her back to the north

elect obama biden now

Turk's may have voted Republican for the most part in the past but Clinton was a much more popular president with Turks than either of the Bush's ever were. Turks can and will always continue to push for their issues through the U.S. congress but they know that Obama will be a much better president for the world and this Turk for one and all her friends and relatives will be voting for Obama this election.

You think you know Sarah Palin and John McCain? Think again.

The funniest part of all of this to me is that Palin will return to Alaska with her tail between her legs. She might try for a run in 2012, but Guiliani and Romney and whomever else vies for the Republican nomination will absolutely tear her apart. I can???t wait to see it.

In the exchange with "Joe the plumber" Obama unintentionally revealed that he really is as radical as his early political acquaintances, Davis, Ayers, Wright, etc., (gee, there sure seem to be a lot of them) and that he is into the failed economic policy of wealth redistribution. Now there is absolute proof. In 2001, Obama, the "community organizer" turned legislator, said in an interview:

"And I think one of the tragedies of the civil rights movement was that the civil rights movement became so court-focused, I think there was a tendency to lose track of the political and organizing activities on the ground that are able to bring about the coalitions of power through which you bring about redistributive change, and in some ways we still suffer from that,"

2001 Chicago Public Radio Interview.

Obama's tax and spending plans alone would be bad enough, but add Reid and Pelosi to the mix, with the three of them controlling both houses of Congress and the executive branch without any effective restraint, and you have something that should causes concern even among moderate Democrats.
See Wall Street Journal: A Liberal Supermajority:

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122420205889842989.html

Indeed, some democrats are publically saying as much. See Barney Franks comments on the news, including face the nation last week, stating essentially that Democrats in Congress intend to greatly raise taxes and go on a spending spree.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1Mazjm_A5k

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJGnSAlqjoU

See http://www.taxfoundation.org/blog/show/23617.html

Obama's ill-conceived programs will require him to tax, and his health care plan alone is a substantial hidden tax on all business, large an small. In reality, it does not really matter who he taxes, those taxes are going to be passed through the economy. He has to tax, because it is they only way he can pay for his massive social engineering experiments. Any first year economics student knows that taxation is a tool used to contract an economy experiencing inflation, because it reduces demand by reducing the amount of money individuals and businesses have to spend. It is contractionary, which is exactly what you do not want to do when the problem is that the economy is contracting already into recession. Like Hoover and FDR, Obama's plans will only make it worse for longer.

The democrats failed social engineering policies are what brought us to ruin. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lr1M1T2Y314&feature=related
Even Bill Clinton says so. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsynspIqAoE
Obama and a supermajority of Democrats simply is not the change we need, nor is it change we can afford.

The GOP's biggest fear is not that Obama is a black radical muslim socialist, but that he will in fact be a great President. That would mean the next Republican President to feel the sunshine on his face in the Rose Garden would be a LONG LONG way off!

So, they bring up all the same old crap out of the basement, without even bothering to check out the truth. Here are the answers to all the Obama smears using various trusted non-partisan sources. Investigate for yourselves before believing anyones version of the facts.

How to bring down a democracy: the steps toward totalitarian rule, in the order followed by Hitler and the Nazi Party; SEE IF THEY SOUND FAMILIAR.

1. Improvise an attack (or take advantage of an attack) on the country
2. Declare the country under attack by an enemy; real or improvised
3. Force legislation that limits civil liberties and gathers broad powers unto government
4. Brand dissenters and peacemakers as unpatriotic and browbeat them into submission
5. Keep the fear factor high to make the public easier to manage
6. Institute massive propaganda campaigns using state-controlled no-longer-free media and fear of government retribution
7. Law enforcement and government personnel and ordinary citizens are used to spy on, control and break dissent.
8. Institute the equivalent of a national homeland security department, overseen by one person with unlimited powers
9. Confiscate all firearms from the citizenry
10. Institute the mass murder and imprisonment of any who resist the new ideology.
11. Launch pre-emptive strikes into other countries in an attempt to spread the new ideology

Sound familiar? It should, its not only the direct path of Hitlers rise to power, but also parallels the events starting with and following 9/11. President Bush was very familiar with the game plan, as his Grandfather and his Grandfathers father-in-law were supporters of Hitler and Nazism, both before and after the war. (See George Herbert Walker and Prescott Bush and the Union Banking Corporation)

Of course, the Bush Administration has skipped a couple of the items on the list, but theyll get to them if their party is allowed to remain in power; it will be the only way for them to retain control over the citizenry.
