Fighting ignorance is a life long job. So many ignorant, so little time.

Oh man. With a response like that if I were McCain I would ask those folks not to vote for me.

To go along with What the F...I was watching Fox News the other day and someone said that people are losing jobs because their homes are in foreclosure or threatened by foreclosure. I was watching with my dad and we both just stared at each other and said what?????? He's been in banking for years (cost analyst, president, VP, commercial loans, business banking, I'm sure some others) and I want to get into banking and we both had no idea how that would make sense in any way. One can keep their job and still lose a house...they just have to move elsewhere temporarily. The only way it made sense to us was in the opposite direction, a lost job would mean foreclosure.

The only way I can think that you loose your job if you loose your house would be if you worked from home? Still then it would a stretch.

Thats freaking awesome smockers.I went to High school in Northern VA and let me tell you between dumb rednecks and dumber suburban paris hilton wannabees it doesn't matter if we elect hitler or god president the country is ****ed. I'm always kinda held the opinion that bad politicians aren't always a bad thing if it teaches the electorate a lesson...sometimes the lesso njust takes a while.

^ Well, there's the BS that's "sanctioned" by the station and then there's the BS that comes from the "man on the street" interview style. I'm assuming that the comment was from some ignorant fool who just had a microphone shoved at his face. At least I hope that's the case...Greg's right, of course. There's no shortage of stupid in this country. But that's what you get when you try to treat everyone the same.

Hate to tell you, but it was an Obama person that said it. He would have said the same thing on CNN, MSNBC, etc. And I also watch CNN and MSNBC and CNBC.
