Warren G. Harding was Ford 0.1 build 0.1.23.

I bet the party was happy 50 years later when the Ford model finally went goldpin.

I just heard a guy on Talk of the Nation on NPR ask a great question.

CNN is staking out black hair salons to ask the women inside whether they're conflicted about having to choose between their gender (Clinton) and their race (Obama). The guy on NPR raised the point that we won't see any reporters in suburban bars asking white guys if they are conflicted about having to choose between their gender (Obama) or their race (Clinton).

How insulting. Does CNN really think people are that shallow. What about the issues?

Oh yeah, I forgot, they're both big government Democrats with little to no difference between them when it comes to the issues.......so I guess their race and gender really may be the only point of contention.

CNN is just really, really sad. I despise that network. Their website sucks, too.

CNN was just intended as a general example. All of the media engages in it was the point.

How is a "big government Democrat" that we may get any worse than the big government Republican we have now?

It's not. In fact it may be a bit better: At least with the Democrat one isn't too disappointed

I agree. I'm usually more disapointed by the actions of Republicans than those of Democrats.

I bet if Joe Lieberman were running against Hillary Clinton, there would be reporters at the Hadassah meetings asking the ladies the same questions.
