I really want an "i-duck". I wonder if they make one that looks like domo kun?

what is this fake blog thing anyway?

It makes a fake blog filled with computer generated and updated stuff.

I just have to say this,
Open office SUCKS! This program is not user friendly, it is not compatible, I deleted it promptly after downloading it and attempting to use it. I found that this program has NO compatability with ANYTHING that I use.
While it is free, there is a good reason for it to exist if you use Microsoft programs such as Word etc. I could literally find NO use for this program on any level of my psyche. It is completely worthless, the interface sucks ass and unless you want to constantly cut-and-paste text into another program that isn't "nerd approved" you should get it off of your hard drive pronto.
Why bother?

Sorry to hear that Peter. I have had pretty good results with it and I use OpenOffice.org Writer on a daily basis.

"Jobless Count Skips Millions"

Feh.

Well it must be the fault of a president that corporations have to lay off employees. I challenge someone to tell me how GWB is responsible for the economic recession that started 18 months before he was sworn in as el presidente. Also, I read that quote by (scary hair)Kerry.

My first priority as the president will be jobs, jobs, jobs!
Now just how the F*CK does a president create jobs, jobs, jobs? Presidents don't create jobs, companies do. I wan't someone to tell me how this process of job creation occurs. Magic lamps?
Raising corporate taxes?
Of course this doesnt matter because we are talking about shameless, spinning, scumbag politicians. Dean is no different than any of the others on this matter. It is a bunch of bunk-ass BS.

How about "taking on the special interests"?
Just what the F*CK is that supposed to mean? Is there a politician who doesn't cater to corporations and lobby groups? Answer: Not just no, but hell no. What they really mean is...

"we want to take on the special interests of the other party because we do not like them and they hurt our campaigns through funding"

I am just amazed that more people don't see through this rubbish from the left AND THE RIGHT. Year after year after year...when the economy is good presidents take credit for it as if they somehow had something to do with it. When it is bad they blame it on congress. It is quite possibly the stupidest thing to be found on the internet and in politics.
If I were to ask you how a president effected the economy and job creation what answer would you have?

None.

Pete they said it right here

That's not a coincidence, says Lewis-Beck, who has edited several volumes on how economic conditions determine elections. "People see the president as the chief executive of the economy," he says. "They punish him if things are deteriorating and reward him if things are improving."

Jake, That is not what I was saying. I know that the Presidency is judged by such economic factors. It doesn't make sense on a macro-economic level or on a micro-economic level because it is politics ( read: Bullshiat).
You are looking at this situation from a political standpoint and the economic health of this country has nothing to do with politics in the real world. Politics is used to highlight the current economic situation. Not the reverse.

THAT is my point! If your point is that the economy is somehow BAD because of some mysterious buzzword like "jobless recovery" (an oxymoron if you study economics) then consider this. The leading economic indicators (housing starts, manufacturing, the S&P 500, the Dow Jones industrial average about to hit 11,000 etc.) You would come to the same conclusion that economists and traders are coming to. That the economy is in FULL recovery. Not just recovery from a recession but recovery from a fake dot com boom that lasted a very short period of time and was based on NON brick-and-mortar businesses and "projected" earnings that never materialized. The whole thing was a scam as is evidenced by the resulting crash. We know this is true because we were both there, remember? Now we work for a company that actually makes something real, and sells it.
If we were not in a recovery then answer me this...what was the DOW at at its highest point in history?

So let's get back to the point of what I was saying, which has nothing to do with how people will vote but rather, the truth.
My point was this...

How does a president create jobs?

(some suggestions)
Adjusting the federal interest rate through his or her appointees?
Raising taxes?
Lowering taxes?

NOPE. Presidents cannot create jobs, in truth, a president really just takes credit for the results of a healthy free market or a sick one. The 1990s was (obviously) a sick free market because all of the so-called gains evaporated literally over about 2 months and we were all laid off. Was it Bill Clintons fault? Hell no.

What is the answer? I am honestly asking you.
Noone who I have ever talked to could answer this comment honestly, not even my dumbass college history "professor" who HATED me because I was the only "conservative" in an art school and was then arrested as a child molester. See the connection there you DIRTY CHILD MOLESTER JAKE!!!!

But seriously, just tell me the answer (with at least some sustaining metrics) and I will pronounce you the king of all media, interactive and static media...oh yeah and XML as well.

who the f8ck eats mcdonalds for 30 days straight?
This guy is a dumbass. Anything will kill you if you eat too much of it. If you ate 3 meals a day at the outback steakhouse you would suffer the same fate if not worse. Sheesh.

He was doing it as a documentary project. He damn near died.

I know why he was doing it but it is really just junk science because it really isn't realistic. Noone on the planet eats that much junk food and if they did they would deserve whats coming to them. The same thing would happen if you ate nothing but ramen 3 meals a day for a month. This guy just has a hard on for McDonalds and is a publicity grabber. I can't stand people who pull stunts like this because they suggest unrealistic and disingenuous hypothesis that eating McDonalds will kill you. Kind of like the way scientists fill rats with a steady injection of sacharine and they get cancer from it.
EG, celery has a carcinogenic chemical in it but it is all about the dosage.

This has got to be the best link ever on this site.

I did not like the comments by George Carlin though. He is a degenerate wierdo and I have absolutely zero respect for his lowbrow howard stern style of comedy. Basicly, I see Mr. Carlin as nothing but a publicity grabbing, walking hardon with a penchant for irreverant discourse. Anyone can make poop jokes like beavis and butthead and forge a career out of smut but it really isn't very intelligent. Grouping Christians and painting them with a John Ashcroft brush is not only ignorant...it is stupid. Carlin can kiss my gun-toting ass and can take his self proclaimed anti-Americanism back to berkley where he came from. We havce it really good here and people like Carlin make me ill because they are all-negative-all-the-time.
That shows a lack of balance in the thought process which points to an immature individual who has an extremist viewpoint and extremism is dangerous....just ask Mr. Ashcroft.

You know what is really funny about this?

Kerry never threw his medals back then but other veterans medals! The truth only comes out now!
Kerry is the worst kind of phony, he even fooled doonsbury. His medals are hanging in his office as we speak.
Sad...just sad.

I don't really think it matters that if the medals that the threw down was his own or were given to him buy other disillusioned Vietnam vets. I think that Kerry in the 70s is a loosing situation for the GOP because it can bring up Bush's national guard records in question and wonder why Bush did not call for an end to the war. My father served in the army ROTC and he did not approve of the Vietnam war either. This is not the first time that Kerry has took on the Whitehouse.

Now this is funny. I can't count the stereotypes on both hands. Crop haired lesbians from Portland, communists, anarchists etc. Truly funny balderdash. I'm dyi'n over here.
