Re: Presidential Debate(s)

Well, here we go again. These debates have had an impact at least in the polls....dramatically in Gallup. If you take the Gallop on its face, it is indeed dramatic. But everything I have read over the last week, aside from that poll, discusses it as an outlier, suggesting that the general vote is p...

Re: Presidential Debate(s)

I'm really trying to understand two things: 1. What is a fair amount for taxes on the wealthy 2. Why is there what I perceive to be as so much anger towards the wealthy I respect your views and those of others on here, even when we don't agree on things, but I can't say that I feel the same comes b...

Re: Presidential Debate(s)

Wrong it is the same source of money. You made $1mm taxed at 35% you take home $650k. You invest that $650k ten years later you sell the investment for $2mm, you pay tax on the $1,350,000 in gains. You continue this until you die, at which point the estate is worth $6mm. The estate will pay tax aga...

Re: Jane's working on a classic rock cover song right now.

Dave also said on Dark MAtter that Janes will be going back in the studio in 2013. Hopefully it doesn't take 5 years to release new music. what about his planned two solo disc then!? scrapped that already? I would look so much more forward to a Dave solo effort than a new Jane's album Jane's record...

Re: Presidential Debate(s)

The country voted for hope and change, but to me that isn't working, so I'm looking for something different. You are right they haven't laid out exactly what they will do. The problem with this logic is that there's nothing different on the table on the Romney/Ryan ticket, at least in terms of spen...

Jane's NYC show at Terminal 5 on TV

Looks like the 7/25/11 show is to air next weekend on Palladia. It's not in my normal bundle of Directv. It is on a free trial right now (10/10-10/17), but it looks like I won't be Tivoing it. Anyone?

It does help to pay close attention to what people actually say. I think Chaos's reading is correct. great, I'm glad you think that and you might be right, but again you might be wrong. It's not quite as arbitrary as that, LJF. Comments such as these really undercut others you legitimately raise ab...

Re: Presidential Debate(s)

Raddatz's did have some bias in favor of Biden, but she did snap at him a couple times for interrupting and correcting her (when Biden said something about getting less time). The difference came, I thought, in two ways. First, the questions were specific in ways that Ryan and Co. like to avoid. The...

I've read 40 million and I've read 60 million watched the debate, but of those people how many would really have their opinion changed? I would imagine a large percent of the people watching already know who they will vote for and the debate isn't going to change that. I think that's right. I read ...

I was wondering why Obama felt the need to lie and tell Jim he was doing a great job? Because Obama has empathy....... I'm not saying it was right or prudent for him to say that, but it means he most likely has elderly people who are close to him that he cares for and knows the tragedy of loosing o...

:lol: Yes, I knew them (too much minutiae in my head). I was at loss, however, regarding the Poland reference. Poland wasn't actually that obscure of a reference point, as it served, at the time, to exemplify the ludicrous composition of the "coalition of the willing"--not that Poland should be dis...
