Gee, we were 1 behind Beantown. We have a large illegal alien population that neither
the Republicans or the Democrates have done anything about. What's Beantown's excuse?

HOT STUFF · 11-03-2007, 08:19 PM

Never mind I just remembered the answer to my question. The Kennedy family.

BP · 11-03-2007, 10:47 PM

No one is going to convince anyone who is polarized. There is no reasoning at that point.

HOT STUFF · 11-03-2007, 11:30 PM

BP, your right but is fun when you lay the facts on them and the only answer they have is to call you names.

mr belvedere · 11-04-2007, 04:06 AM

I have to call ******** on this ... it's one thing for the gov't to mandate the minimum wage, it's entirelly another thing for the POTUS to do it. hehe. As much as we would like for the everyday, uneducated, and unskilled consumer to rake in that kind of dough, inflation would have to be a "lot" higher before the assholes in congress would ever put forth such empowering legislation to go before the commander in chief of these despicable states. It's a campaign lie, just like so many others that have gotten so many of the elite re-elected (and all of their rich friends) to he highest seats of power in this country. ~Obama in '08~ -Belvy
