Speakeasy forum: By the way, Michelle Bachman hasn't paid her Presidential

I never liked her for the Republican candidate either.

She's not flat refusing, but I don't know enough to judge the fairness of the nondisclosure asked they sign before they get paid. I would have thought some formal type of agreement like that would be done before they were even hired not after it was all over.

Also, I don't agree with a nondisclosure including police, at least not in an official investigation.

Your bias against all opposite views is as obvious and real as anyone else, on both sides. And it is as often shows as extreme in political terms as anyone's.

Obama gave his campaign staffers extra pay or bonus.

"Long-suffering political footsoldiers who toiled tirelessly, at least since September, to put Obama in the White House recently learned they will be getting extra paychecks worth a month's salary, the Daily News has learned. And boy, are they grateful. "I think it's a very nice gesture for people who slaved away and sacrificed for the past year," said one pleased ex-staffer. RELATED: '60s RADICAL AYERS BREAKS SILENCE"

It
was totally unexpected, and you can't believe how helpful this is with
the holidays coming," the lower-level worker said. "A lot of people
thought they were going to be broke and would have to try to find a job
in this rotten economy. It's a huge help." In addition to the cold cash, staffers also have the option of keeping their campaign-issued computers and BlackBerrys - but must pay income tax on the hardware if they do."

and that's just fine, but Obama pays his campaign workers and even comes up with bonuses, and that's wrong???

I continue to be amazed by your "dyslogical" thinking. He won the campaign, which is neither here nor there as a part of the issue, and lived up to his commitment. Her campaign fizzled, but she didn't have the backbone or the personal integrity to make good on her promises. I'd think that the moral obligation in a losing campaign is even greater than it is in a winning one.

when you've been so hard on the guy. Thanks for seeing a positive in his behaviour.

when it is due.

doesn't own. And how can you know that he is considering its sale to China? Maybe The State Department and The Department of Commerce are considering the question of its sale, but how do you know they're inclined to grant permission?

It seems to me that the only thing we know is that a Chinese company wants to buy A123systems, but they have to get clearance from the government. I certainly don't have any indication that Barack Obama would do anything hurtful to the United States, though that idea seems to be the basis of your post.

And which President sold technology to Toshiba which was purported then to have been conveyed to the Soviets. Begins with R. Both names.
