>>>>>>No kidding today on my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy with a sign that read 'Vote Obama, I need the money.' I laughed.
>>>>>>I got into the restaurant and again no kidding my server had on a 'Obama 08' tie, again I laughed as he had given away his political preference--just imagine the coincidence.
>>>>>>When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in
>>>>>>disbelief while I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to someone who I deemed more in need--the homeless guy outside. The server angrily stormed from my sight.
>>>>>>I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to thank the server inside as I 've decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy was grateful.

>>>I haven't heard 150K, other than from you. I did see an ad yesterday narrated by Obama himself saying 200K. That's still a pretty high income.

>>>One more day to go. Thank God.

>>That only confirms that you don't actually listen to Obama or Biden's speeches. Even Marcia posted it here. Biden also mentioned it in a speech. This time I'm not going to provide a link. It's out there.

>No, I don't listen to their speeches other than when they are televised. I did see a commercial YESTERDAY when Obama said 200K.

ROFL. It seemed like it yesterday. I was up late after finishing a project so I popped in. I do that while a project builds :o) You were on rather late yourself! :o)
