Oil's energy contribution has declined by about 12% since 1999. The world's economies have also declined by about 12%. (Using conventional metrics, which are time delayed determinations, this will only be seen in hind sight). The massive destruction of asset values now occurring testifies to it happening.
Peak is well behind us, world economies have peaked and will continue to decline.

Pretty much sums up why the red staters have destroyed america.
The only sense I can make of your statement is that because those in the red staters supposedly have protected babies that has caused many more liberals to be born. That has destroyed America. That makes sense to me, and incidentally America is capitalized by those who love it.

Senator McCain and the Republicans were absolutely
amazed with Hillary being able to pound on Obama
and his having to walk on eggs in consideration of
race and gender and historical symbolism with a
large swatch of Americans. I think the old fighter
jock wanted one of those"Obama jammers" to
bolt onto his Phantom jet and he got one
as quick as possible on a wild maverick hair.
I think Governor Palin will show herself to be
charming and capable, and Mr. McCain will pay
a high cost for misusing a Republican original
for a cheap trick. Biden has to be polite, answer
question tersely, and remind everyone that he
thinks Hillary and Sarah should have shared the
debate and how wonderful that would have been.

I have finally realized by liberals are such advocates of aborting as many babies as they possibly can, even those babies who have been born. It is because the powers that be in the liberal universal realize they are such asinine, stupid, idiotic, bunches of bastards. Such things as accusing saving children ruins America, promoting life causes one to kick in the head of a mother, protecting Jews makes one a Nazi are all examples of the absolute craziness that infects the liberals. These leaders are smart enough to know that by aborting as many liberals as can be done it may possibly reduce the complete craziness which has so embittered liberals. Thank you all for your comments which have led me to a great revelation as to why I believe you all should be aborted ASAP. It is too bad your mothers did not have the same feelings as you do.
GO MCCAIN, PALIN, BUSH, and all the right people of the world!!!!!!!

America really really has to move abortion out of the Federal level. It totally hamstrings all debate. Let it go hamstring State politics.
Besides, the Republicans don't even care. Total power for a decade and Abortion hasn't even been touched. _________________ Congress has found themselves in a bear trap. They will chew off three legs, and still be caught in it...

I've not watched Palin before, generally, I think Presidents have a very mild impact on the course of the nation compared to Congress and the courts; and VP's even less; however... considering how much excitement this babe seems to be generating, I think I ought to take a look.
That said...
Senators suck on TV debates. Just is, what it is. I know Democrats love to convince themselves that their candidate is smarter or more well read or educated, but in the end, it doesn't help them win. As much as I love
What is really kinda sad, is that Democrats will claim their candidate has "won" the debate no matter what is said; and so will the Republicans; when what is REALLY important is understanding which candidate most closely represents the values and actions you might wish an executive to take.

Wait, was the OP about? Oh yeah, Palin vs. Biden. Who frackin' cares? Vice presidents (excepting the present one) are irrelevant. Palin is a side show, and Biden is just a gungrabbing cock******. Both embody everything that is wrong with their respective parties. _________________ "A little stored food and Bob's your uncle." --TT

One thing that has been pointed out about the abortion debate in the past has to do with the long-term results. Liberals tend to have more abortions and as a result reproduce at a rate that is below the replacement rate. Conservatives have fewer abortions and thus reproduce at a rate above the replacement rate.
The result is that Conservatives will almost surely always outnumber Liberals.
One thing I can't understand about the abortion-on-deamnd crowd is how they say that it is not a baby that is being killed. I mean, do they belive in the magic cervix? It is just tissue on one side but squeeze it thru the magic cerivx and PRESTO! CHANGE-O! you've got a human being?

So, would people care to comment on the intelligence and education level of S. Palin? Did folks notice her answer to Katie Couric's question as to the meaning of the proposed financial bailout. Sarah P. said it was about providing medical care and lower taxes and some other irrelenvancies. A suitable answer would have been that the plan was to protect the integrity of the banking system and make it so credit continued to be available to people for getting houses, cars, student loans etc. (The plan is also being pushed through to shore up big banks so they can continue to purchase large quantities of treasury bills and thereby support the federal government.)
Does anyone else here think she is a simpleton who isn't even qualified to be a primary school teacher or book-keeper? Does anyone else resent that this semi-moron could seriously be considered for the role of vice president of the United States when she clearly is not college material, realitistically would merit a D academic record, and would not pass behavioral or technical interviews for most jobs in California.

I don't know that I would consign her to mopping the cafeteria floor, but she certainly has no business in public office. I understand stage fright and all, but if you can't name a single newspaper when asked four times, I'd say you shouldn't be mayor of Wasilla, much less Vice President of the US. _________________ "We were standing on the edges
