    All those people can hang out at Home Depot and Lowe's, or mow yards. All the illegal immigrants can be deported.

    If I got fired I would totally mow yards. They get crazy $$$ for that crap and do terrible job.


    I think the stimulus pack should include a border wall.

    it's puzzling to see anyone nutty about her.

    She is just two heartbeats (albeit stopping at roughly the same time) away from being President

    sooooo scary

    Because a black man has become President how many time before?

    Just because it hasn't happened, don't discount the possibility.

    My brother became one of those 500 million for the month of February. He got laid off yesterday. :(

    i'm guessing we'll see our first latino, jewish, and asian presidents before we see a speaker of the house become president due to the simultaneous deaths of the president and vp.

    or at the very least, the thought of whomever is speaker of the house becoming president shouldn't scare anyone other than the biggest of pansies among us.

    Regardless of my joking comment about being 2 heartbeats away from the presidency, the speaker wields an enormous amount of power.

    It is odd that she would make the exact same gaffe twice in about a two week span.

    I will shed a tear of joy the day that this country wakes up and stops voting for people who are dumber than they are, who don't serve in the spirit of your interests. Meaning: stop voting Dem/Rep. Stop voting for those who had anything to do with creating the bailout or stimulus packages. It's really not that complicated.

    These Obama supporters have stopped voting for people who are dumber than they are.

    It was taken during MLK day in 2007, not an Obama rally.

    Out of context, and I'd have no problem with dumb people abstaining from voting.

    The thing is, if Nancy Pelosi has no clue about the magnitude of 500 millions, how can one be sure she has any idea about 900 billions, etc.?

    Two heart beats away from POTUS, scary indeed.

    On the gun forums I was on (which is needless to say HEAVILY conservative) they ripped McCain a new ahole.

    Huh? The reaction from you suggests you need 'depends' more than I do, no?

    i'm not the one scared of the extremely unlikely scenario of both our president and vp dying at the same time.

    I see what you are saying, but if you are pro-Democratic, don't you wish the person-in-charge is somewhat less Palin-esque?
