Been lurking a while....
« on: January 08, 2012, 12:42:37 PM »
and finally decided to jump in.

I came across this board after reading DUmmy Funnies. The DOTY award had me in tears.

I live in Georgia and was a Hermain Cain fan. Now, I'm not sure who I am gonna vote for in the primary. I KNOW I don't want another 4 years of Obama. I've been laid off of TWO jobs since he's been in office (One job I had for 15 years). I am currently unemployed; but I am submitting at least two resumes every day in hopes that this stint of unemployment won't last as long as the last one did (1 1/2 years).

I'm also a HUGE sports fan. Love the Braves and the Falcons. I also pull for the Steelers (unless they are playing my dirty birds).

I look forward to chatting with y'all when I can.

I hope you are able to find another job soon.  I was unemployed for five months and it felt like an eternity.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
