Why ruin your personal harmony with matters that paint an ugly picture of events, which would impact on the beauty of the inner self that is reflected in artistic creations? Forget it. Pack up and back to OZ with you. See you there later. :-) --Durano, done!durano lawayan a.k.a. brad spithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10432711769928256631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-843778778119050450.post-386450400579447682008-03-12T00:18:00.000-07:002008-03-12T00:18:00.000-07:00Hi Fitness Diva,Thanks for the compliment on the l...Hi Fitness Diva,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the compliment on the lay-out, but it was perfectly involuntary. I took the photos of equal sizes and uploaded all of them on the left side. When I took a look at it, they were arranged this way. I'm happy with it. :-)<BR/><BR/>As I told Kevin, it's a purely psychological political babble. Obama should have said it first since Democrats have been talking about it all week and even month before.<BR/><BR/>So far the Dems have been enjoying record turnouts and big campaign funds flowing in. It's looking good for them this November. But you're right about the tiresome and inconclusive results plus the rhetoric is getting boring.<BR/><BR/>As far as I'm concerned, they're all flawed before the election has even begun. --Durano, done!durano lawayan a.k.a. brad spithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10432711769928256631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-843778778119050450.post-27063583992789462742008-03-12T00:08:00.000-07:002008-03-12T00:08:00.000-07:00Hi Kevin,Hillary's ploy is merely a political appr...Hi Kevin,<BR/><BR/>Hillary's ploy is merely a political approach to create a bandwagon and try to convince people that she is, and will be, the winner in this contest. She's putting on a show of strength to win the undecided and last minute decision makers.<BR/><BR/>It's a strong psychological ploy, that's all it is. But offering it ahead of Obama was the key. If Obama said it first, it would have had a bigger and more realistic impact. He was beaten to the punch.<BR/><BR/>No one said Obama was guilty of anything, neither did I. No case has ever been filed in court where a guilty conviction was rendered. What I'm pointing to is the fact that personal associations and exchange of favors influence certain decisions. Now if I owed the Pope a personal favor and he requests me for something, certainly I would oblige. If it's a racketeer, a terrorist, or a Mafia boss, would the situation be different. The movie "City Hall" dwelt on this, and this has been the case since men associated with other men for power and position.<BR/>Why do you think Enron happened or Halliburton continues to rake it in? Why don't we develop fully alternative energy sources and insist on using fossil fuel? Why do Pharmaceuticals continue to have dominance over the government? It's favors Kevin, and association.<BR/><BR/>Do not be blind to the possibilities, and must ever be vigilant. Even the best of men are weakened by choices made under stress or by their own ambitions and desires. It's the story of mankind. Look at Obama as a man who needs your help to be strong and be on the right, not like some God who will do no wrong deliver you from evil. He is human, and he is imperfect. I am not endorsing any candidate, as a matter of fact, if I had my way, I would cancel all the primary results and select the truly best among the citizens to lead. All these potential presidents are flawed before they even threw their hat in the ring. That's what I want you to see. __Durano, done!durano lawayan a.k.a. brad spithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10432711769928256631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-843778778119050450.post-86762337483061301902008-03-11T17:45:00.000-07:002008-03-11T17:45:00.000-07:00goodness the plot has thickened Durano !!Barbie's ...goodness the plot has thickened Durano !!<BR/>Barbie's Mother lol...

How'd you do that?<BR/>You've got skills, my friend! ;)<BR/><BR/>And I have to agree, Kevin, that is the height of arrogance, suggesting that someone who is already winning against you should opt out and just be your right hand man. She's definitely got some cojones!<BR/>And in not such a good way....<BR/><BR/>This thing is just gonna drag out week after week after week. I think that the public is going to just get bored and push it to the back burner if a decision is not made soon(with the Dems). It's hard to keep all this fevered momentum and excitement going on with no conclusion in sight.<BR/> And who knows what will be the consequence of that...The Fitness Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07616336355234339736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-843778778119050450.post-81539278557478100222008-03-11T10:35:00.000-07:002008-03-11T10:35:00.000-07:00Hillary is pulling out the "Obama as VP ticket" be...Hillary is pulling out the "Obama as VP ticket" because she is trying to pull his voters to her, by saying we will both win if you pick me. It's a bunch of garbage and frankly, shows her arrogance, being pretty far behind in second place and all...then asking the person winning to take the second place position. <BR/><BR/>Then, just because you're associated with someone does not mean you're guilty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
