You said "no one answered geeker's question" which i told you was incorrect because i did in fact answer it. Now, if i didnt answer how you wanted me to, thats just too bad.

This is a thread to convince all us non believers- so let's hear all the good that Obama will do



that was geekers question. so, no, you didn't answer as apparently you have yet to convince a non-believer.


edit~personally, i was hoping for some good, worthwhile answers. i'm still undecided.

Hey I am not pi$$ing Chuck off - he trains our horses.


As far as the thread - I think it lost it's focus a few pages ago...but your response was truthful and for that Morty will PM you a picture of his (_!_).
