Your Historic Day

I'm not getting crazy over gun control. Gun laws are looser now than they were 20, 30, 40 years ago. They may chip away at some gun rights, but they are'nt going to do anything rash or the American public will pound them. The Dems wouldn't even talk about it during the last 2 elections because they knew they would lose votes.

Canada has a great gun control program. We pay millions to have our hunting rifles registered and this is suppose to keep us safe and secure! The trouble is that all the fatal shootings are from unregistered guns. We have put ourselves in a situation where no lawabiding citizens have easy or quick access to guns but the criminal element does. Now they know that when they pull a gun that they definitely have the upper hand. I see the US following the same road.

Let those people just read my signature line...

gun control is like abortion, there will always be guns and there will always be abortion....they keep bouncing both issues. Pete bring a mac 10 and he'll be your best friend, bring alot of cans too lol

I didnt vote for the new Prez....my 32 year old saleman did, based on "Im tired of old white guys running the country".

Me being from the "great" state of Illinos was VERY concerned about his relationship with our dipsh!t gov.Blogo. Obama has wisely distanced himself from that jerk.


As of now..my thoughts are neutral to just a little positive. Hey, if everybodys excited about him, and it gets the economy moving.. Im All for it!

BTW, I think Im going to ask for my own bailout... if Larry Flint and Joe Francis can ask , why not me!?

Amazing what one small word can mean...LOL

to many deals and handshakes and business as usual, Putin hates Mccain a matter of fact the Russian people hated Mccain. and we sure the *************** dont want to poke at that beehive
I had a hard time making the choice....i voted for the lesser of 2 evil's, just my take, the rich got way richer in the last 8, only thing is they got caught and tax dollars are paying for it

ACORN ; the short answer is the group that registered the dallas coyboys to vote,I think it was in Ca. One guy voted 70ish times for guess who? Also pressured banks into Hi risk home loads.

ACORN...? Would someone be so kind as to educate me on that one?

and woman

you know when you look at a man, and he says what he means and he means what he says, all the BS aside, thats how i look at Obama, the media trys to put a spin on it with the black this the black that....I dont think he thinks that way, I think in his mind he is a patriot and he wants to get things straightened out, he wants to change the system and i really dont think he is approachable and willing to "sway" for the betterment of the powers to be. i think he is looking out for the interests of me and you...the common man

Yeah Eric, they lost me there too...
Israeli's little scared of the big black man...?

Still, it was heart warming to see all those people united on the Mall... At least you are the UNITED States, that's a h*ll of a lot more than I can say for my country these days.

Now, after the euforia comes the real work for "the man"...

I just did an appraisal for a guy that was pulling equity out of his house to by a house in Panama. He said it is a wonderful place. Cheap real estate and the people love Americans. I'm not worldly, I'm leary about leaving Maine, let alone going to Panama.

That's only as long as they can get blood out of that stone. Then (at least over here) they'll start printing more That's just fine until it leads to a loaf of bread costing about $95.

(do you realize that they are projecting a $TRILLION deficit here this year!!! I remember when it was a big deal that the annual national budget exceeded $1/2 trillion, now just the deficit is twice that!!!) The inmates are running the asylum.


There are 2 TV shows over here on the "house and garden network" about buying real estate. One is US homes, the other is "international" homes and they focus on the islands and latin america. The more I watch the international one, the better places like aruba and costa rica look. I could run the water ski concession at a resort like KO does. Anyone see the downside to that plan?
