Bonkers: The Four AmigosBarack, Joe, John, and Sarah, choices, donmcvay: Bail out bolognaWe been had, hoodwinked, bambozald, the deal has been struck. The rich, stay rich and we the tax payer are a hole lot poorer and our future is very unsecure. snapfinger: IHOP Coming to PTCThere is a sign in the window of the former Original Pancake House in PTC that reads "IHOP Coming Soon." Good! Their prices should be much more reasonable than the OPH, plus open more hours. Cyclist: Hello Tug,dawn69: Quit Snifllingmuddle: PETA: What a Bunch of BoobsDid you hear that PETA has asked Ben & Jerry's to begin using human breast milk, rather than cow's milk, in their ice cream? Fred Garvin: OBAMA TRIED TO STALL GIS' IRAQ WITHDRAWALThis gives a clear indication as to how Obama would lead. He will say on thing to the American people and do something completely different behind their backs: dawn69: just wondering & mainframecomputerguyI'm glad to be hearing some common sense on this site. Did I hear correctly today that Obama wants 20% of the "bailout" package to go to ACORN? Sounds to me like more of the same...irresponsible lending practices. Bonkers: Wanted: water proof large rust proof cansfor backyard burial----mattress full. Looks like Wachovia may go under this week-end - Citi may buy them partially, anyway. Bonkers: A bargain (unattributed AJC)REQUEST FOR URGENT BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP DEAR AMERICAN diablo_ogre: What is the alternative to comcast in fayetteville?This is more of a question than a blog but I have had it with comcast. Today they were supposed to come out and install phone so I would have the complete package. Nitpickers: First big auto retailer underBut not the last! (heard) Why are we dropping "random" bombs on Pakistan? John Munford: OMG! USC's gonna lose...Wow! Oregon St. just intercepted and returned to the 2. TOUCHDOWN!!!! That makes it 27-14 (PAT bounces off the post) and looks like number 1 USC is going down tonight with just over 3 minutes left. Awesome! meanoldconservatives: A momentary diversion from the usual Mother Jones, Huffington Post, and Talk Left offerings...BLANKLEY: Media covering for Obama Obama remains unknown OP-ED: DarthDubious: Read what Cong. Dr. Ron Paul has to say. I know it's long but worth the read. Thank You.Dear Friends: The financial meltdown the economists of the Austrian School predicted has arrived. We are in this crisis because of an excess of artificially created credit at the hands of the Federal Reserve System. The solution being proposed? More artificial credit by the Federal Reserve. No liquidation of bad debt and mal-investment is to be allowed. By doing more of the same, we will only continue and intensify the distortions in our economy - all the capital mis-allocation, all the malinvestment - and prevent the market's attempt to re-establish rational pricing of houses and other assets. bad_ptc: David Letterman Reacts to John McCain Suspending CampaignCyclist: Hey Hack!!!Fred Garvin: Definition of 'Weasel'DarthDubious: Time for Legal Notice to be served.It is unreasonable to vote for the financial services bail out. The alleged crisis has been in an ever accelerated burn for more than a year yet only now do we have an emergency? Please reject nationalizing institutional losses and the continued privatization of profits. I think a better use of our currency would be to provide immediate foreclosure protection and to allow the banks, finance firms and investment bankers, to utterly fail. What are we saving with this bail out anyway? Main Stream: Parents abandoning children out of desperation...God help us, and our country, if parents start abandoning their children because of their financial situation and inability to take care of their families any longer. It is gut wrenching. Mike King: What If We Tell Wall Street No?We have a constitutional right to expect a solid separation between church and state, and I propose that we create that separation within the business community. Could it be that those distinguished statesmen/women in Washinton fear the fact that a free enterprise system could possibly still work. sniffles5: Frail old man runs from African American asking for change."Frail old man runs from African American asking for change." The above line was hands down the best summation of the events of the previous 24 hours. Fred Garvin: Another voice of the Democrat party"anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks.”.....Rep. Alcee Hastings - Florida eodnnaenaj1: OooopsHad It: Ellijay Citizens Angry about their BOE Property TaxesEverywhere you look citizens are fighting tax increases. “We’re planning to fail” was the cry at the BOE hearing in Gilmer County Sept. 11. These taxpayers are vocal and are trying to force their BOE to cut expenses 35%. The BOE wants a 17% increase. The citizens are down on all tax increase, including Splost, Tan’s & Bonds. In Gilmer County, SPLOST stands for S-ucker P-ayment LOST. I live in Fayette and also own property in Gilmer. It’s an all out tax revolution everywhere. If I know these mountain people and I do, they might find a BOE along the side of a road beaten and bloody. BOE stands for Born On Expenditures. Let’s all go to the new Boston Tea Party and throw Janet Smola in the Bay in November. FILE away spending and elect NICOLE File for BOE Post 1. PTC Avenger: How hard is it to be a Republican right now?With the economy in shambles... McCain trying to run from the debate... The Palin/Couric interview... How hard is it to be a republican? DarthDubious: Letter from Congressman Ron Paul: Time is running outSeptember 24th, 2008 by Ron Paul Dear Friends, Whenever a Great Bipartisan Consensus is announced, and a compliant media assures everyone that the wondrous actions of our wise leaders are being taken for our own good, you can know with absolute certainty that disaster is about to strike. yardman5508: Let the molestation continue...Could not help but notice that Goodwill Industries has decided to move to Fayetteville instead of Peachtree City. Do not get me wrong. I am not an opponent to Goodwill Industries and what they propose to create in Fayetteville. I think that it is probably something good for the county in the long run. Bonkers: Bush speaks at 9:00 WednesfayWhy does he run out every 12 hours with another (probably the same) speech? He is not going to convince many of us that we MUST buy Maybe one, maybe unlimited, trillion dollars worth of bad debts that no one in the world wants! Nitpickers: Need some helpful infoDo any of you detailed financial experts out there know just how to cash in a large Equity investment one has with AIG. I mean quickly. |
