Who said anything about killing 4,000 more troops? Peace in Iraq is nearly at hand, with levels of violence below many other parts of the world, and declining. It’s over, you need a different stick.

The USA oil companies’ profits are a minimal amount of the price of a gallon of gas. Stealing their money wouldn’t even move the price of gas down, it would increase it because the market would know they would not have the funds to develop new sources of supply.

The uber rich pay the vast majority of the federal taxes. The middle class pay a small minority of the federal taxes. It has been demonstrated in the real world that lowering marginal tax rates stimulates the economy and increases the flow of tax cash to the government. Increasing the marginal tax rates changes people’s behaviors and decreases the flow of tax cash to the government.

You really should know these things and then you would not sound like someone who is at best an undereducated 20 year old surfing myspace and youtube.

So, people will move down the line.

Norm: Kill 4,000 more troops
Al: Stop the blood letting

AL: Elimitate the tax cuts to the uber rich.
ADVANTAGE: AL

I could go on, but you all already know this. What is shocking is the level of your apathy toward making the necessary change this November.

If they withhold endorsement from Franken, that will hurt Franken.

Got mad gaming skillz? pffft. Video game jockey, that fits.

While I generally disagree with your theory here, I give you mad props for catching the source of my name.

While what you state maybe true, one can see there are a lot of camels looking under the side flaps of the tent, trying to get out and away from supporting Franken in this race.

I remember “Coya Come Home.”

The third female is Republican Michele Bachmann serving in 2008.

Mike Ciresi is a Minnesota native (St. Paul). Mike’s father was an immigrant to the USA; Mike’s mother died when he was young.

Mike’s worked hard and has a successful law firm.

Mike represented the State of Minnesota. He took on Big Tobacco and won a settlement of about 6 billion dollars.

Mike’s continuing legacy is that every year the State of Minnesota gets about $200 million dollars as long as the tobacco companies do business in Minnesota.

If the tobacco companies DO NOT WANT to do business in Minnesota, THEN THEY DO NOT HAVE TO PAY $200 MILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR TO MINNESOTA.

I think that the Democratic Party has a bigger tent than some people might like others to think.

The fact is that the outstate DFL-ers will not vote for Franken. They will vote for Coleman. And the outstate DFL-ers will make the difference, unlike you, Mr. World of Warcraft name-stealer.

But believe me. There are plenty of people now who are leery about giving Norm a second six years, given the futility of the first go round.
