LOL. Isn't it funny that it's gotten easier to convey and grasp sarcasm and humor with a smiley? The internet is evil.

Oh yeah...back to McCain's flip flops. Much better than Crocs.

Sarcasm on GC? Say it ain't so!

I have forced smilies upon you. Thank me later.

I wonder what the candidates think about Crocs? Do they wear them? If not, what is that saying about their stance on the economy?

On another note, whoa at international Crocs: http://www.crocs.com/international/

Getting back to the thread, maybe I'll have to flip/flop on the use of smilies.

On the other hand, I'd rather use Crocks than flip/flops.

(Actually, I don't wear either)

You can all groan now.

This is a complete shock - a mother is upset about a TV ad that negatively depicts her daughter.

Donors never agree with every move a candidate makes. I understand, because of the Huffington Post's political leanings, why they posted on this, but I don't understand why this is a story outside of that forum.

perhaps because it rather directly relates to mccains campaign style, of the week, of playing to peoples ignorance instead of their intelligence.
and that it is in the general news.

and to continue with their new style or way of campaigning, they seem to have already forgotten about one of their earlier ads. what was it that mccains campaign said just the other day about obama raising the race card first?

or was that the real start of their humorous, fun campaign style? which they seemed to have indicated started last week.
