Can’t wait to scrutinize Romney’s tax returns to see if there’s anything in there that proves Obama isn’t a horrible president.
Watching a Youtube video, I got an ad for a local Idaho prop issue. Normally I would never see those since I don’t watch local TV. Thought it was kind of cool they finally figured out how to reach me.
So Romney voluntarily started paying more in taxes when his taxes came under scrutiny, and Obama started giving more to charity.
If you want to know who is greedier, look at Obama’s charitable contributions before he knew his taxes were going to be scrutinized.
For the record, paying more taxes than you legally need to is weird and I’m against that. I’d rather you just burn the money.
If the left really thought Romney didn’t have a chance, then they’d act less bitter and hateful.
If the left ever start acting reasonable and nice to opponents on the right, gird your loins.
Everyone here gives away at least 10% of their money to charity, right?
Has Harry Reid’s imaginary friend Petey weighed in on Romney’s tax returns yet?
You’d think birthers are the craziest conspiracy theorists, but then are those who think Obama is doing a good job with the economy.
I enjoyed book 4 of Game of Thrones
I couldn’t write like that. Every chapter needs to end on something exciting, and I’d bore myself writing long descriptions like that.
BTW, is there any way to get a Kindle to open to a cover of a new book instead of jumping straight to the text? I don’t know who are reading on Kindles who are in such a rush that they need to jump straight to the text.
The thing, my Obama book
I know there’s still at least 2 more books of Game of Thrones to be published, but I think it’s pretty obvious it’s supposed to be purgatory.
My next big focus will be getting a novel published. That will be a big learning experience, I’m sure. I have one novel SarahK is helping me finish the edits to and another I’m 70,000 words into the first draft.
Obama: “People misconstrued my point. I was trying to say that all the things I promised before I was elected I’m incapable of doing.”
Why is the sky never green? At sunset it goes from blue to red, which according to a rainbow it should have to pass through green to do.
Idea for Twitter: You tell it topics you don’t care about, and it automatically removes tweets related to those topics from your timeline.
Not talking about anything you people are tweeting, though. I care about everything you say and feel personally enriched for having read it.
Finally watched the movie Super 8 on Netflix. Disappointed it wasn’t one of many sequels to Joe Pesci’s The Super.
On standby for jury duty today, so everyone in Boise, please don’t murder each other. Or at least don’t get caught this week.

FYI – sometimes the sky is green. At sunset – if you look directly at the horizon – if the curvature of the earth is not obstructed – you will see a green flash. Sailors and desert travelers are most likely to see ‘the Green Flash at Sunset.’

The sky does turn green, and when it does you’d better head for your basement. Esp. if you live in the midwest.
Where exactly are my loins and how does one gird them? I’ve always wondered that.
That loser former white house press guy asked, ‘what is Romney hiding’? Still. What a surprise.
Romney needs to point out he paid like….$12 milllllllllllion in taxes, who cares about percentages and then point out what percentage of that goes to
deadbeat welfare leechesthe 47%.I’ve seen a green sky. It was at sunrise and it was brief – only a few seconds – but the sky was distinctly green. Apparently it was due to some distant valcano that was active at that time. Either that or I got a bad batch of nip.
If he wasn’t horrible, Mitt would have paid much more because his investments would have made more……
Elect Mitt So He Will Pay More Taxes!
Maybe the sky takes the shortcut BIVR rather than the long way BGYOR? If I were the sky, that’s what I would do.
But rainbows are lying bastages and should not be trusted. I’ve been preaching that for years.
You wrote a bad song, Petey!
I felt the same way about the Hunger Games. Where was the competitive eating? I was expecting to see Kobayashi and Joey Chestnut in the movie.
The sky appears blue during the day due to Raleigh scattering: light scatters in proprotion to the frequency to the fourth power; blue light has a higher frequency and therefore disperses more in the sky; lower frequences may simply skim through the atmosphere without ever richocheting down toward your retinas. (the reason the sky doesn’t appear violet, which is an even higher frequency, is simply because our eyes are much more sensitive to the blue light)
The sky appears red at sunset because when the sun’s rays are at that angle they have to pass through a great deal more atmosphere and are now being absorbed more than they are being favorably scattered.
One effect causes you to see the highest frequency of light in disporportion, and the other causes you to see the lowest frequency in disproportion, but there’s nothing that would selectively filter out higher and lower wavelengths in favor of the intermediate wavelengths.
No, I’m pretty sure “bitter and hateful” is all they’ve got.

As Lucy once responded to a lecture from Linus on the meaning of a quote from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, “Now that I know that, what do I do?”
I have encountered similar explanations many times, but they don’t stick in my tiny little brain because I don’t DO anything with the information. So when my kid asked me, “Why is the sky blue?” I had to answer, “Because of something to do with the refraction of light and differenct wavelengths being perceived as different colors, and red is a longer wavelength and so we see it at sunset and sunrise because it is going through more atmosphere, or something like that,” to which her perfectly predictable response was, “Huh?”

Find sports jok with cup then get Kevlar shorts.
Your loins now have basic girdness.
Have you got book 5 yet, Frank? Mine is on order. I’ll be finishing 4 tonight.
Denise,
I read on a Kindle, so I grabbed book 5 as soon as I finished book 4. $6 more than the others, though, since it’s the newest one, I guess.
Why is the sky blue?
Because it reflects the ocean.
@16 – which is deepest indigo (said the sailor, who sometimes misses seeing that color)
