As shown on Seinfeld.

According to the press, its a landslide. It wont matter if even 10 % stay home then. Correct? Or are they too lazy and stupid and need to be told to vote and for who?

Remember when you were in college and knew you would ace the test, you took it easy , had a nice dinner, brushed up on the material a little, and went to bed at a reasonable time. The guy who didn't prepare or know the material was cramming till 3 AM. If Obama has this locked up like they say he does, why doesn't he take it easy the last few days? He is going full blast until Monday night. An example: Here in CA, he has the state sewed up. Why are there tons of commercials for him the last several weeks? Have to spend that anonomous (sp?) money from overseas raised by Visa gift cards on something.

To tie into this, here is some info on the estate tax: Prior to the estate tax reduction, estates were taxed at rates beginning at 37 percent and going as high as 55 percent. Generally, the estate tax only applied to assets exceeding $1 million. Included in President Bush's tax cuts, however, was a provision to phase out the estate tax rate over the next few years. For families with large real estate holdings such as farms that have been held for generations or small businesses, this stroke of good luck will ensure that assets are passed onto posterity without Uncle Sam taking a majority of the bounty. This would be accomplished in two ways: 1.) by raising the amount exempt from the estate tax rate, and 2.) lowering the estate tax rate itself. According to the IRS literature, an estate tax filing need only be made if the value of an estate exceeds the following amounts: 2005: First $1,500,000 in assets 2006-2008: First $2,000,000 in assets 2009: First $3,500,000 in assets In addition, the maximum estate tax rate applied to the amounts in excess of these figures are as follows: 2005: 47 percent 2006: 46 percent 2007- 2009: 45 percent In 2010, the estate tax rate drops to zero percent; if you die in that year, your heirs would not pay taxes, even if you passed on $20 billion! One caveat: Congress ensured that the law sunsets in 2011. That is, on January 1st, 2011, the estate tax rate will return to its pre-Bush levels. Practically speaking, this means the difference between dying on December 31, 2010 and January 1, 2011 can mean 55 percent of your estate if you are person of means! Obama has never said that he will make these cuts permanet if elected. That means in 2012, if your estate is > $1M, it will be taxed at 37 %. In Albany, NY his may be a lot, but here in the SF Bay area, the average house is still about $450-500K.

No we aren't dipwad. I was watching I think CNBC yesterday and it gave some stats and aid they were since 1980 (Carter's term). And if you say it in a major speech in your political career, shouldn't you actually do it? Why should we believe him? Please just answer this simple question. Isn't it referring to the biblical story of Cain and Abel? I thought you lefties wanted religion out of politics.

I for one welcome our new insect overlords. ...

Less than a year ago (December) he said that below $97,500 was middle class. Watch between for this part.

Simple. They have no answer and are just waiting for the KoolAid to take effect. Mmmm. Grape.

I'll go back to calling him the Messiah or Barak Hussein Obama then.

"I am my Brother's keeper" Another lie by That One.

WTF does this have to do with this thread.

I don't live in SF, but about 30 miles away, so I didn't vote on it (I voted about 10 days ago by permanent absentee ballot). It is a city measure (the city and county of SF . It says that they won't arrest anyone for prostitution, there are no provisions to go after sex-slaves rings (big in the area -they have busted housed with 30 or more Asian prostitutes in them in other places in the area) or child prostitution. The mayor, DA, and neighborhood groups are against it. I would vote no. SF is enough of a cesspool as it is.

That One's aunt, Zeituni Onyango, who he wrote about in his book, has been living in the projects in Boston. She was ordered deported in 2004! "I'm my brother's keeper." Yeah, Right. AP Story

No kids for the second year. I live in a ~500 unit apartment complex and there are very few kids here. Anticipating that, I bought a small bag of snickers- looks like I'll have them all. Ended up watching 100 Scariest Movie Moments on Bravo.

Stanford- not so much I worked at Stanford in the mid 90s. The Graduate School is top notch, but the undergraduate program, no. It has been changed but in the 90s, you could drop a class in the last week of the semester and it wouldn't appear on your transcript. You could take a class over and over and the last mark would be the only one on your transcript. That made me think much much less about that program.

Your comments about your vast life experience (you're 19 for god's sake and my TV's older than you) and about how Cornell isn't Ithaca and your snobbery about Cornell shows your lack of maturity (I am not saying immature because you just haven't lived enough yet. ). Don't make broad , sweeping statements, because you just haven't experienced enough life yet. Why didn't you say you did charity work overseas instead of just saying that you traveled around? Someone I knew and worked with came close to being on Flight 93. He flew back the night before. He would book several flights and then use the unused flights for later trips to our NJ office. He showed us his boarding pass for flight 93 about 3 hours after the towers fell. He didn't know how close he came until he looked at the passes. About 100 people becoming totally silent with shocked looks on their faces when he told us in the cafeteria. He showed us the passes , so it wasn't BS. Several things (a bridge and a street) within a few miles of me are named after people on flight 93 because they were from here. Whatever they have to do to stop those subhuman monstres is the correct thing to do.

Was $2.93 Monday. $2.75 today.

Obama Commercials! Nothing scary really. The scariest thing I have ever seen on TV was a TV movie made in the 70s on ABC with Karen Black called Trilogy of Terror. The part with the statue is great and will have you looking at the nooks and crannies of your place if you watch it late at night.

Who cares who any athlete or entertainer backs.

I say MCain wins in a close one.

1) Constitution Party 86% 2) Republican Party 71% 3) Libertarian Party 67% 4) Reform Party 38% 5) Natural Law Party 33% 6) Democratic Party 19% 7) Green Party 19%

Democrat Limbo!!!!! How low can you go?

He might be recuperating in the hospital.

I always think that Rick Jenarette will stroke out as he announces "And the Sabres win the Stanley Cup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

From what I gather, he's a Sophomore at Cornell and got to travel with or because of his rich parents. That's his life experience so far.
