JAMES SIKKING? Hill Street Blues James Sikking?

WHOA!

Gracious in victory. Both of these women were extraordinary candidates, and I hope that their good attitude will guarantee victory now that there is a nominee.

"Check out this article on waffles served at a Republican fundraiser"

Deliberate CC Today Falsehood alert! This happened at the Value Voters Summit of the Family Research Council, an ultra-conservative group. It is NOT the Republican Party, it is NOT the McCain campaign, and so on. Please - READ the links, don't just post them!

Sloppy reporting = lawsuits!

"To date, she is against sex education, birth control, the pro-choice platform,"
And there are literally MILLIONS of WOMEN who agree with her!

"environmental protection,"
Define what you mean.

"alternative energy development"
Out and out falsehood - she DOES support it and has said so publicly

"freedom of speech (as mayor she wanted to ban books and attempted to fire the librarian who stood against her)"
Another lie - FactCheck.org has exposed this as false.

" gun control"
The Supreme Court agrees with her!

"the separation of church and state"
How so? and remember, this is NOWHERE in the constitution, but is only a personal opinion of thomas Jefferson.

"and polar bears"

She's seen one - have you?.

"Blame Bush for blocking state efforts to lower your homeowners ins."

YOU voted for the bill which allowed the Mass. FAIR plan to charge a 25% increase in Barnstable County, while holding the rest of the state to 5.9% increases - no, I think I'll blame YOU instead.

CCToday - when are you going to realize Spyro is a Democrat?

Rupublican Old Guard confides in you much, do they?

Doesn't matter - Priscilla is Perfect for Probate!

A key mising bit of info - how many of these foreclosures are just second homes being cut loose? It would also be interesting to see how many are in real estate trusts, usually for tax purposes, rather than owner occupied.

Marco - not only did the Times endorse Bush, it endorsed him on the same day and in the sme column as they endorsed Sarah Peake! (in case you were wondering about HER stances...)

Well, these squabbles are usually in-house - but Beatty was RIGHT about Ogo's papers, wasn't he? Not ALL the GOP establishment backed Ogo, and they are working to DEFEAT JOHN KERRY. PS - do you think being the candidate NOT chosen by that powerful clique is a BAD thing?

I loathe the Senator's ideas, but pray his passing will be peaceful and dignified.

It seems the Progrssives are the actual 'haters' on this forum.

Libby - sssshhhh! You'll screw up his poor-boy-from-the-mean-streets-of-Chicago gig - precious little frangipangi there!

Ogo may have blown his signatures, as opposed to Cape codder Beatty who submitted 17,000 CERTIFIED signatures.

What GOP candidate did Doug ever help besides himself?

He was chosen as a delegate by lying to the caucus chair about his supporters, claiming people backed him who did not.

Of course, he would fit right in with the boston city council...

Mass law stipulates 25% affordable - is 10% a Joisey percentage?

BTW - I heard that one of Barack Obama's chief advisors - some old white haired guy, now in the hospital - ALSO ponied out a big chuck of change to stop Cape Wind....and Obama hasn't issued a statement of support like McCain did! What are we supposed to make of THAT, Walter?

Part of having advisors is listening to different points of view - at the end of the day, McCain decided to endorse Cape Wind. Doesn't that trump the opinion of an advisor - or are only Democrats allowed that sort of nuance?

Lawn Jockey name?

Well, since he has the lamp, let's call him 'Diogenes' - ceaselessly searching for an honest man, but not finding many in that neighborhood....

Does it seem odd to anyone else that they're having this meeting in the one area of the state with NO Mayors?

Or did they pick us a 'neutral territory'?

What will Milne run for next - Miss America? He's on Barnstable Town council, CLAIMS he's on the charter Comission as well and is fighting that in court, and now Commissioner? Admit it, Greg - you're just a campaignin' fool!

Tracy - opposing Cape Wind loses you votes, too!

Support Sears, the ONLY pro-wind farm candidate!

(um...somebody wake up Bud - what DOES he think? Sigh. When you elect somebody whose name translates into English as Fat Head, I guess you get what you deserve...)

How can O'Leary support things his constituents don't want?

HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa...Wooh! I'm sorry...

And all I could hear was the 60 and under! AMAZING!

Most notorious!

Maybe he gave to Wilkerson every time she had a court appearance for evading taxes...sort of a jello shot game!

You managed to drive Jim Ehrhart, whose great sin was cutting the town some slack and letting them give him a golf course membership instead of cash he was owed, away. And you're SURPRISED nobody wants to run in Brewster?

I always wondered - why are the commission members from each town not elected? THAT would have been one way to rein in their overspending and mission creep.

Good gravy! Imagine when you take the kid to a REALLY upscale place!

Hmm...it damn near killed me!
