Ok anyone else ready for the Media to do it's job?
Media is in a love fest with Obama, when are they going to start acting like journalist instead of extensions of E!. Where's the outrage that the new Treasury secretary could not figure out that he owed TAXES..or that two of Obama's Staff Violate his latest Ethics POLICY?
13 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoPresident Obama holds WH salaries?
President Obama put a hold on increases of WH salaries today..(Republican here). I applaud this. Do you think the Senate and House should take the hint and rescend those automatic payraises (about $4000 for a congressman) they gave themselves Jan 1?
2 AnswersGovernment1 decade agoWho does OBAMA think will actually end up paying the Windfall Profits Taxes on Oil companies he is pushing?
ALL companies (if they have any common sense at all) pass on All costs of doing business to the consumer. Yeah the government will get the windfall tax, but it'll come out of OUR pockets OBAMA..basic Economics 101..did he miss that course at Harvard?
12 AnswersElections1 decade agoB.Hussein OBAMA will not wear his American Flag Pin?
He says by wearing an American Flag Pin on his suit he would be demonstrating support for the IRAQ war. I contend that this type of thinking, automatically disqualifies him from being a real contender for President. We have troops in combat, in harm's way. Wear it to honor them. One's love for your country should have nothing to do with disagreeing with an official policy. The American flag should be above politics or partisanship. Do you disagree?
15 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoAnother VHS to DVD question?
I have scads of VHS tapes I want to convert to DVD. So Far, it's just been a frustration. I have Studio 8 and a Dazzle 80 and the program is simply unusable. I have a plenty powerful computer with lots of storage space to bring the media into my harddrive. Any recommendations on a program or hardware to get to make this easy? I am considering Pinnacle 11 with the movie box digital convertor (takes analog video, plus 2 track audio and converts it to USB signal into the computer. Open to another method or program. I do have a tuner card I can install, how would I handle the audio?.

Am I the only one out there who has an immediate impulse to resist when I hear someone in the government use the term MANDATORY? Hillary's at it again and doesn't understand Americans any better now than when she tried this 13 years ago.

I've personnally never had a $400.00 haircut like Mr Edwards..I resent him thinking he speaks for me. I am solid Middle class who pays $11.00 for a haircut and tips $5.00 on top of that. Mr. Edwards certainly doesn't speak for me and if I was poor, (I have been poor befor) would NOT want him speaking for me either.

1 AnswerHeart Diseases1 decade agoMurder in Squaw Valley California?
When I was a child in California in the early 60's I remember a grisly killing that happened in the ski resort area of Squaw Valley. I think it was AFTER the 1960 Winter Olympics were held there so that might help fix the year (maybe 1961?). A single woman was killed and dismembered, and I think she was perhaps an ice skater or skier or instructor. Does anyone remember this crime? I'm trying to find information on it.
