  1. Alan, you really need to have a psychic with severe Alzheimer’s and delusions. So entertaining.

  2. Well, saying Alzheimer’s was insensitive, I admit, sorry. Still, if the pyschic repeatedly forgets what was said and makes up nonsense to replace it; ha!

  3. So Hilary won PA. How predictable. right?

    I do not get why a Hilary supporter who won’t vote for Obama, will, if anything, vote for McCain in November. We have 2 democratic choices. Why drastically switch from democrat to republican. Why vote for McCain who cannot distinguish muslims from shiites? What about the MGIB issue? And what’s with his wife Cindy plagiarizing from the Food Network? We’re in trouble here, hello?!

    Obama even said that Hilary’s gas tax holiday wouldn’t work and guess what, not even people in PA bought her “gimmick”. He was right. And now she has quited down a little about bashing on Obama b/c clearly, she might be realizing Obama is always on tact on issues.
    And besides, Hilary lies too much…(sniper fire!!!….my daughter jogging by the twin towers while them being hit!….I am for NAFTA, wait, No I am not for NAFTA!…..let’s NOT give immigrants licenses, wait, We WILL give them licenses!….)
    Which one is it lady?

    I’m sorry but she’s led me to believe that any other woman who might run for president in the future will probably do the same thing.

    I’m sticking to my guns and supporting Obama all the way.

  5. Epiphany, always ready with some facts. Did I tell you about the Futurama movie, BENDER’S BIG SCORE, when Bender (the robot) responds to a mathematical formula the Professor is explaining by saying “what you got there? numbers?” LOL you should see the movie if you haven’t

    Annie~ I think that part of the reason for someone wanting to vote for McCain if their preferred Dem nominee doesn’t win is that those people are prob moderates or Reagan Democrats.

    I really don’t have a problem with a gas tax ‘gimmick’ that will save me about $28 a month this summer, as long as it’s coming with long-term plans to end this oil price crisis. $28 a month is a lot of money to some people, you know?

  6. Alexa, the above was for you. Sorry, I called you “Annie”, she’s a regular poster.

    btw, I LOVED having the astrologers on. The only other blog I comment on is one dealing with astrology on Live Journal.

  8. Isn’t it possible that astrologers who try to foretell something as mundane as an election can be swayed just a bit by their own political persuasion? Barack Obama, thankfully will be the nominee, he has always plyed by the rules….What do you hear from the Hillary camp…they are more interested in moving goal posts and throwing boomerangs……

  9. Lucieann~ Yes, it’s definitely possible for an astrologer to be swayed in their interpretation of a chart. A lot of the info in a chart (the planetary positions and they way each planet touches or “aspects” another planet) is kind of black and white, but then there’s also some information that the astrologer has to put together and interpret. But, with an entire conference of astrologers working together, that should help surpass the bias of any one astrologer.

  10. The Clintons can’t even comprehend the idea that they could lose in any election. This has been a rather sad spectical to witness.

  11. NO WAY will HUSSEIN OBAMA ever be president! If the DEM COMMITTEE and delegates dont wise up, they will have NO Party and NO candidate, as the dirt will soon fly on OBAMA!

    The man pledges allegiance to AFRICA and his Own and we want a person who will WORK for ALL THE PEOPLE!!

    And he aint it!

    McCain is a SHOE-IN for NOV 2008 if Obama gets the NOD!

    That’s the facts!

  12. Anon~ were you a “special needs” student?

    I’m not making fun of those kids, b/c they need help, they get it, and are able to lead successful lives. But honestly, sometimes a few just slip through the cracks.
