Where there is smoke there is fire and it looks like the latest Cain accuser just lit his ass on fire. She is hot white republican thing... What self-respecting republican wouldn't want to put his hands between her thighs?

This shit won't amount to a hill of Georgia beans. I bet Cain continues to raise a shit load of money and won't be able to find Georgia or Georgia on the map.

Finally, your attempt to subtley change the topic while admitting no error was simply a matter of intellectual dishonesty. All of it is, unfortunately, consistent with your posts in the political forums.

Great post JoeR, hit the nail dead-on for sure.

Incorrect. In 2000 Cisco was the most valuable company in the world with a market cap of $ 500B, in 2009 its market cap was $ 108B.

Unfortunately for Nortel, their main technology (legacy phone systems) has all but died out and VoIP is rapidly replacing it.

Still a great deal of TDM systems out there, with the Avaya acquisition of Nortel and the economic difficulties of the last few years, many existing TDM systems will be migrated to hybrid (VoIP & TDM) systems rather than replaced by Cisco VoIP.

Nader said in his WaPo interview that, the stocks he chose were “the most neutral-type companies … No. 1, they’re not monopolists and No. 2, they don’t produce land mines, napalm, weapons.”

So having a market cap of $ 500B in 2000 isn't monopolistic? Without posting several links to accusations of monopolistic, unfair, and sometimes illegal practices, I'll just say I've seen Cisco in action firsthand and it ain't pretty.

Funny coming from a man who backs a Pres who thinks we have 57 states.

An 'oops' that could mean 'over' for Perry - CNN.com


"Oops

That was his comeback. Perry completed this painful journey not by telling the audience that remembering the third point wasn't as important as remembering his overall message. He didn't tell the audience that forgetting his third point in a debate was not as bad as forgetting how to run the country or fix the economy. He simply said, "Oops." And then the microphone went to one of his seven Republican rivals. Oops indeed."

What effing idoit. I knew this guy was an Epic Fail, it was just a matter of time. Put this up right next to Howard Dean and the Yell.
