[QUOTE=Sidney]CAPITAL GAINS TAX.
MCCAIN.
0% on home sales up to $500,000 per home (couples) McCain does not propose any change in existing home sales income tax.
OBAMA.
28% on profit from ALL home sales.[/QUOTE]This is a flat out lie that's been debunked any number of times. You should be ashamed of yourself for passing on this kind of crap without taking the minimum amount of time it takes to do a simple fact check.
When I see someone passing around one of this e-mails, and I see the "28% on profit from all home sales" quote, I know immediately that the entire e-mail is just right-wing fear mongering, and that the sender is either a complete idiot or a right-wing fear monger himself.
What next, Sid? Obama fathered two children with a black woman? LOL!
I am so ambivalent on the selection of president due to the choices available that I really haven't had much input on this discussion. However, I had to comment on this one statement:
[QUOTE=Gipse]National Security: Any concerns I had about Obama were allevialed with the endorsement of Colin Powell. Obama wants an end to the Iraq war which has nothing to do with National Security. Obama wants more troops in Afghanistan which has everything to do with National Security.[/QUOTE]After Powell's obvious fronting (whether as an unwitting pawn, or an enthusiastic participant, or somewhere in between) for the Bush administration's setting up of invading Iraq, how much strength of word can he really carry for convincing someone on this point?
We're going to be sorry regardless of who wins. Prepare for more of the same: higher taxes, more regulation, continued hollowing out of American industry, and, my personal favorite, more war.
Very Interesting story.

U. S. Stocks Advance in Biggest Election Day Rally Since 1984
By Elizabeth Stanton.
Nov. 4 (Bloomberg) -- U. S. Stocks advanced in the biggest presidential Election Day rally in 24 years, led by energy and banking shares, on higher commodity prices and speculation the Treasury will bail out more financial companies.
General Electric Co. Added 7.7 percent and CIT Group Inc. And Principal Financial Group Inc. Climbed more than 20 percent after people briefed on the matter said the government may broaden the focus of its rescue program. Exxon Mobil Corp. And Chevron Corp. Led all 40 energy shares in the Standard & Poor's 500 Index higher as oil gained more than $7 a barrel. Archer Daniels Midland Co. Rose as much as 22 percent after profit more than doubled at the world's largest grain processor.
'The market has come to the conclusion that Armageddon is off the table,'' said Philip Orlando, who helps manage $330 billion as chief equity strategist at Federated Investors Inc. In New York. 'The elimination of the uncertainty of the campaign typically results in an end-of-year rally and you're starting to see that today.''
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index added 33.82 points, or 3.5 percent, to 1,000.12 at 1:08 p. M. In New York, its first day above 1,000 since Oct. 14. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 265.15 points, or 2.9 percent, to 9,584.98. The Nasdaq Composite Index advanced 51.1, or 3 percent, to 1,777.43. Gains in Europe and Asia sent the MSCI World Index to a sixth straight advance.
Today's gains in the S & P 500 and Dow average were the biggest ever for a presidential Election Day. The NYSE first opened for trading during a presidential vote in 1984. The S & P 500 averaged a 0.3 percent gain on those days since then.

I hope you are correct. We had another President who was elected at a young age, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, who know more about the ecomomy than most people think. Probably because his dad was a giant on Wall Street.
Maybe we will have the same luck with Obama. Maybe he knows more about the economy than most people think. I hope so. At the very least he will not continue with the deficit spending lunacy that we have now. At least I hope not.
Professor ousted after tearing down McCain yard signs.
The St. Olaf (Northfield, Minn. Professor who, in a well-read Huffington Post item, recounted tearing down McCain campaign signs has resigned.
Per the Northfield News, it appears that Philip Busse was forced out.
St. Olaf spokesman David Gonnerman issued the following statement Monday afternoon:
"The St. Olaf College administration first learned of Phil Busse's self-admitted theft and destruction of campaign signs on the morning of Oct. 31 as a result of his posting on the Internet.
"The St. Olaf administration immediately referred the matter to local law enforcement authorities and commenced an investigation of its own.
"Mr. Busse has tendered his resignation and is no longer affiliated with St. Olaf College.
Busse has been charged with misdemeanor theft.
******I hope nobody on this board does anything as stupid as this.
Believe me, this election is not worth it. We will survive whoever wins.
I liked it better when all we did was CHASE PUSSY *****

Well I don't know whether Obama knows that much about the economy. But since the stock market is fueled by emotion, he himself doesn't need to have a deep economic background to lead the country out of this mess. What he does have is that rare ability to inspire people to believe in themselves and in the future. That is worth more than a Nobel Prize in economics at this juncture.
His speech tonight after the election will be historic. A possible turning point in the mood of the United States and of the world. If he restores people's faith and gives people hope, I sense a hell of a rally in the markets tomorrow.
Good luck to us all!

So I went to vote today and as everybody knows I've been supporting Obama as long as this has been going on. As I walked in to the poll they had a poster of Obama / Biden and McCain / Palin on the walls. I had to wait a bit to vote and something was bugging me. I couldn't put my finger on it, but I was really uncomfortable. I stepped behind the screen and hit a strait Dem ticket, ran through the referendums and hit vote, then a screen came up for me to confirm and I reached out to do it. At that moment it hit me, I just couldn't vote to put a fucking niger in the White House. I thought I was a better person but I wasn't, I just couldn't put his black ass in power, I knew welfare would triple and all the rest of those monkeys would think they had it made. I backed out my vote and changed it to McCain.
As if. Psych!
Obama 174, McAngryOldGuy 64. I think it's going to be a slaughter.
;-) Its a great country!

[QUOTE=Daddy Rulz]At that moment it hit me, I just couldn't vote to put a fucking niger in the White House...I knew...all the rest of those monkeys would think they had it made. [/QUOTE]That's much sadder than you can imagine.
I have a number of friends who are teachers at various levels -- elementary school, junior high, high school -- and they have all commented unfailingly on how Obama's candidacy has absolutely rocked the black and ethnic kids in the most positive ways. My friends have all observed the most profound change in the hopes and aspirations of these kids, along with black parents in particular telling kids they have absolutely no excuse now for not working and trying.
It's 10:37 EST on Tuesday as I write this, and it looks for all the world as though Obama is going to be our next President. All other things aside, I suspect this is going to absolutely transform a huge segment of previously disenfranchised citizens, and create a positive new era in American life.
And you, sport, will always be on the outside looking in.

Like General Buck Turgidson, I hate to jump to conclusions before all the facts are in, but it appears two of my biggest prayers are being answered tonight.
First, Liddy Dole -- that foul, foul woman -- seems to have lost to Kay Hagan in North Carolina. This alone would have made my day.
But to top it off, the Dems seem to have picked up enough seats in the Senate to boot Joe Lieberman off his committee chair.
Norm Coleman and Michelle Bachmann defeats in Minnesota would absolutely push it over the to for me, but seeing Dole and Lieberman get their comeuppances will put a big smile on my face as I go so sleep.

You are absolutely correct!
Dole ran a VERY hateful campaign-especially in the last 2 weeks-what a surprise for a Repub. And Lieberman is a closet republican and should be removed from his chair.

Again, the US leads the western world by being the first country to elect an black man as the leader of the country. The world will follow and respect us again because of our willingness to move forward.
What a wonderful moment in time and for all it means to be an American and all it means to the rest of the world that is watching.

Wow.
I must admit McCain was gracious in defeat. Funny thing though, the crowd in Chicago cheered at the mention of McCain's name while the crowd in Arizona booed at Obama's.
Sid time to hid the money under the mattress, whatever you have in the bank tomorrow I will enjoy spending once the wealth gets spread around.

Now the hard work begins. I predict Obama is going to be more center than ANYONE expects because he wants change and change can only happen if he is somewhat moderate.
