IMO, McCain is the closest thing this country has seen to Reagan since he left office.

Nancy Reagan is reportedly a big supporter of McCain and McCain made a number of visits to the White House when Reagan was President.

Carl Icahn Says Obama Would Be a `Terrible' President for U.S.

May 22 (Bloomberg) -- Billionaire investor Carl Icahn said Barack Obama would be a ``terrible'' U.S. president whose election would bring higher interest rates and a loss of international confidence in the dollar.

``I don't normally get involved in politics, but this time I am,'' Icahn told an investors conference in New York last night. ``I don't think Obama really understands economics.''

The Illinois senator is the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination. Obama has 1,962 delegates, according to an Associated Press tally, putting him 64 delegates shy of the 2,026 needed to clinch the nomination.

``I personally think he would be a terrible president,'' Icahn, 72, said. Obama would probably go on a ``huge spending spree'' that ``the country can't afford right now.''

Coupled with the higher tax rates that the Illinois senator has already endorsed, ``you would have a loss of confidence in the dollar,'' leading to accelerating inflation and ``much higher interest rates,'' Icahn said. His comments, and remarks by other presenters at the conference, were embargoed by the organizers until this morning.

Even worse, Icahn said, would be a Democratic president with a veto-proof supermajority of 60 Democrats elected to the Senate.

``It would be devastating,'' he said. ``Then you couldn't stop runaway legislation.''

Earlier this year, Icahn donated the maximum $2,300 to the presidential campaign of Republican Rudy Giuliani, according to the Washington-based Center for Responsive Politics. Giuliani has dropped out of the race. He has also given to Democrats, including New Hampshire Senate candidate Jeanne Shaheen.

Well that should tip the scales.

More than your endorsement will.

Succeeded only in creating more terrorists? HA! HA! ROFL... and WWII succeeded in creating more Kamakazi's, so many in fact that the Imperial Navy and Army Air Forces ran slap out of trained pilots. This led to a little shoot out where we were out-numbered and slated to be wiped off the Pacific. Today our historians call it the "Great Mariana's Turkey Shoot" as these school boys from the East were no match for their American counterparts and got blown to hell and back! Keep passing the bombs, one thing for certain, they won't be shooting us here, and every one of them that blows himself to heaven... isn't likely to repeat the act ANYWHERE! 

All we have to do is create a stage and invite these Bozo's to join the party.

BTW, Downtown Dweller, I agree with you 100%!

Twice in one day.  "Incisive" must be the word of the day on Stephen's 365 Words Calendar.   :D

Nah.  He googled, what the fuck to say next, and it came up with "Incisive."  Trust me, try it.

This is about the most sensible damned thing youve ever said, Charleston.  Glad to be back in the same neighborhood with ya.
I think I've said more sensible things than that, but hey, I'll take what I can get.  ;)

Shouldn't we give Hillary equal time, after all, she's been bitching about not getting equal time for months now.

I didn't even know that Al-Jazeera had an English-language bureau with American reporters. 

But this is an interesting report on Obama/Clinton filed in Kentucky.

Yes! Folks.
JESUSVIILE has four dollar regs. read it and weep, you sorry ass right-wing tards.
When Obama gets hold of a AMERIKKKA, he is going to make the price rise to twenty a gallon and then I'm going to take all the money I made off of SPECULATIONS and buy all the RE-TARDS'S real-o-state and worth-less junk for five cents on the dollar.
Thanks tards!
Now you Tards get to see what real spending is all about.
Obama is going to tax your asses off and your going to cry like a bunch of little babies.
Go cry to your mommies when you're taxes pay for new roads, bridges, the elderly, the handicapped, the poor,
disaster relief, schools, medicade, prisons, Iran war, cancer research, woodstock memorial and last but not least, your freaking diapers.
Now go fill up your Hummers and cry.
Ha....ha.....ha!

Now this would be an interesting ticket, even though I don't think it would happen. Remember this name though...I bet we will be seeing it again!
