@Ralph Hahn
Tell Mrs. Coffee: “HERE! YOU invest the money!” lol
I may try that LOL
Shep Smith is last again amongst the foxnews group….whoo hoo!!!!
I wish I could pick and choose which network news I had to pay for when I subscribe to cable or satelite TV. There would be quite a few networks that would be cancelled. Since I do not have a joice so I canceled cable. I can get more complete news on the internet.
I noticed that Shep Smith’s number have been down the the past few weeks. Between 1600 and 1900 six weeks ago and 1400 to 1800 recently.
@coffee Steve
Sorry for delay.
The 3 major impacts in Cali if the voters do not approve the tax %increase and the tax increase for those earning 250k
1.education (including 3less weeks of school)
2. Cuts for courts
3. Cuts in Public Saftey
The Republican Govinator did far more damage than Gov.Gray Davis was recalled for by scores.
The Meg Whitman lovers don’t know what their talking about. Her lack of experience in politics would of extended Arnold’s collision course. Gov. Kerry Brown is going to turn things around, we have no doubts. His bringing issues to the people for a vote is well received far more than the Republican obstruction tactics.
Hope everyone survived Monday!! It’s stressful here and still trying to figure out why? Time for a cocktail(diet coke)
Jerry*
iPhone auto correct. Ugh!
@Jeff
Thanks, and I wasn’t a big Arnold fan anyway, I hope you guys get it under control out there, but I’ll be honest, I’m not sure “more” taxes on you guys are the answer, and while it may not be a major thing at this point, the number of businesses leaving Cal, is starting to steamroll.
I have a paid subscription to a trading site and it’s 100% non political, that shows charts on the past three years there, and I cannot believe the number of businesses that have left.
I wish you guys good luck.
@Jeff
Don’t be stressed my man, life is good, If we get up and don’t fall out of bed, and at my age anyway if I sit up and don’t pull a muscle and notice another first time, unknown pain, I’m FINE!!!
MSNBC’s Chris Matthews to Black Pastor: ‘I Hope You Evolve’
Hardball anchor Chris Matthews, who routinely smears his political opponents as racist, on Monday lectured an African American minister who opposes gay marriage, “I hope you evolve.” The host patronizingly added, “I’m just teasing.” [See video below. MP3 audio here.] How would he (or MSNBC for that matter) react if a conservative said such a thing to a black leader?

MSNBC’s Chris Matthews to Black Pastor: ‘I Hope You Evolve’
I thought you were joking…
He needs to be suspended
so if oil prices are going down, why did gas just go up 18 cents?????????
@ He needs to be suspended
He needs to be institutionalized!!!!
@Ratboy
Gas is up because some refineries out west are closing down; they cannot keep up and make a profit with the regulations. High gas prices aren’t going anywhere my friend, in fact gas will soon rise again.
And get this, in Utah they have discovered trillions yes trillions of barrels of Oil, more than the worlds reserves, but seen any media coverage?
Goodnight all
Peace
@coffee and all
On the discovery of oil in Utah, someone like Romney needs to stand up and say we are going to pump everywhere and give incentives to refineries , we are going to create more jobs than we can fill and sell oil to the world. And screw the middle east and the rest of the world.
Romney would win in a land slide!
Good Morning Everyone

Obama is a marketed posted boy for the liberal agenda who doesn’t have an original idea in his head. Even Obamacare is supposedly a mirror of policies by Romney. In addition, health care reform was Ted Kennedy’s life legacy, mot BO’s. Obama played the blame game for three years and not has nonstopped campaigning for over a year. How often is this man in his office? Is it any wonder nothing is getting done? Between all his TV appearances and speeches and fundraising when does he have time to be president? He is reactive only when the situation is SO bad and people demand answers and then he shoots from the hip and we all suffer from his lack of leadership. You want four more years of this? If he becomes president again, save your money, you’r e gonna need it to live on.
Morning Coffee Steve
Another great morning here in Dallas, temp is 66 degrees and will only get to 88 or so. No rain in forecast.
All the polls show Mitt Romney going up and Mr Obama going down.
ABC poll has Romney up 2 points with women. Game over
Guess Republicans won the war on women.
Maybe Obama can get a job on msnbc HA HA HA HA HA
Just another example of obumbles sleaziness.
