Does Joe think any of those people care about Bill Clinton or welfare reform? LOL.

And being bi-partisan usually means you are NOT extremely liberal or conservative. Democrats may work with McCain, but I doubt Palin would have any influence, who is the reason that ultra-conservatives are voting for McCain.

McCain's pick of Palin says a lot about judgment, a President needs to have good judgment. Sarah Palin admitted that she hadn't thought much about Iraq, she doesn't know what a VP does all day and she is under investigation for abuse of power, plus there is the secessionist issue. Clearly, selecting someone with these issues does not show good judgment and that's not someone we need as President. The choice came so far out of the blue, I was shocked when I heard it.

This article is exactly why I have a problem with the Republicans when it comes to social issues. It seems as though they just want to get the vote of pro-lifers. They don't actually care what happens to the babies born to poor and/or uneducated teen/single mothers once they're in the world. The moment the child is born, the mom is on her own. That disgusts me. What about the pregnant teens who don't have family support? WTH are they supposed to do? Palin and McCain don't want them to have any programs to improve their lives and to better provide for their babies--even though they look down on welfare cases.

I think that's the case. I don't think the voting specifies reasons legislation was supported and I think there is a huge problem with the way legislation is written in far too many instances. Especially when they tack on things that have nothing to do with the primary bill but that's another topic altogether.

I wholeheartedly agree that it makes no sense to cut all these programs that give a baby a fighting chance if one is strong pro life advocate.

I want to add that I thought Huckabee would have been the choice as well.

I think its sadly funny (if that makes sense) that the father of Bristol Palin's child has on his Facebook that "don't want no kids". And that a plane has been dispatched to Alaska to bring him to the convention. It's quite obvious where she stands on sex education. She doesn't want any. She would rather see teenagers out on the street than have any kind of healthcare, food and education and clothing. She's a mother and grandmother. Would she want that for her kids?

Maybe she thinks that will never happen to anyone in her family so it's a non issue but she should be able to empathize.

So they're bringing him to the convention? Maybe they're moving the wedding date up since part of that pregnancy announcement was that they she was going to get married.

My myspace says doesnt want kids. However if i knocked someone up i would damnw ell take care of my child.

And it isnt that she doesnt want any. Its that she wants abstinence-only. And i dont see how that emans she wants to see teenagers out on the street without heathcare, food, education, or clothing.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
