Biden - Palin Debate, Anyone watch it?

[mom'sfolly]

Math again!!!!!!

1 billion = 1000 million = 1,000,000,000,000
1 trillion = 1,000,000,000,000,000

US population is about 300,000,000

$1 trillion divided by 300,000,000 people = 10,000/3 = $3333 per man woman and child.

Not $425,000 per person, or even per tax paying person.

This situation is bad enough without saying the bailout is $425,000 per adult. Yes, we could all find ways to spend the money, but this rumor keeps popping up, and has been debunked at least three times on this forum.

Now that is twice you have hit me on something i said. Now I dont mind if you have something to add here but lets try alittle more than the smart remarks. I was just saying virginia is not 100% going blue. Personally I think it will be mccain by a large number. Landslide no...but still a strong win. Also as red as my state is and always has been the reason its become more blue the past few years is more people from blue states moving here. Not really a good ol state anymore. Alot of CA, NY, NJ, MD and other people living here now.

really people,the worst thing you can find against Palin is she winks !!!! hell if thats as bad as it gets I call it a win...I dont think she is "useing" it to try to warm up to people,I think its just the way she is,like when people call others honey and sweety,its just the way they are and the way they speak..you people from the south should understand that..I think the fresh face and fresh ideas are a great thing,and she wont bend under McCain just cause he says so..and when Biden says and others bring up the bills McCain voted "no" on,it doesnt mean he thought it was a bad bill,but he maybe didnt like all the other junk attached to it,most of the time they dont even relate to the bill,just freaks trying to get their stuff passed by attaching it to a bigger issue..and that goes for whatever Barack has said "no" to also,if you really want to know what the bills say go on the government websites,find those bills,read them and understand them,most times it sounds like a great idea until you get down to reading and understanding the nitty gritty and realize its just not possible the way they are written.So when people say they voted this way or that way I dont let that affect my decision as we NEVER get the whole story.Barack wants to DOUBLE FORGIENE AID !! that alone is enough for me to not to vote for him..I think we should take care of AMERICANS first,then maybe help other countries,even tho most of them dont want our help,if thats the case,leave and let the chips fall where they may.

"Obama supported removing all combat troops from Iraq within 16 months, saying, "I will remove one or two brigades a month, and get all of our combat troops out of Iraq within 16 months. The only troops I will keep in Iraq will perform the limited missions of protecting our diplomats and carrying out targeted strikes on al Qaeda. And I will launch the diplomatic and humanitarian initiatives that are so badly needed. Let there be no doubt: I will end this war." The quote appears on the campaign's Web site."

"The difference between John McCain and Barack Obama is that Barack Obama advocates an unconditional withdrawal that ignores the facts on the ground and the advice of our top military commanders. John McCain believes withdrawal must be based on conditions on the ground. Prime Minister Maliki has repeatedly affirmed the same view, and did so again today. Timing is not as important as whether we leave with victory and honor, which is of no apparent concern to Barack Obama. The fundamental truth remains that Senator McCain was right about the surge and Senator Obama was wrong. We would not be in the position to discuss a responsible withdrawal today if Senator Obama’s views had prevailed."
