Givers vs takers, by state

[TheVictors]

states with the lowest percentage of taxpayer supported services and consequently some of the worst public education systems voted overwhelmingly for Mitt Romney.

States that believe in an educated, healthy and civil people voted against Romney.



Now, pay elrod the $1000 you owe him, eunich.

So I don't count anymore?

I think Thumb is counting you amongst the moderates; that's probably where I would fall - I see you as more of a moderate (at least in this political climate).

Thumb did bring up a good point - it's been my impression that all those conservative posters that he listed - who I think are pretty smart - also think tsmith is an idiot.

What is ironic, funny, and telling is that tsmith actually thinks he's the only conservative on this board - he never reads byco's, KAWDUP's, Mitch's or or tycobb's posts?

No, they are already in the dem column. Just giving a reason why northern whites are more moderate/lib than southern whites

its part of the added 22,000,000 dependents that voted..pushed him over the top

That sucks for Romney! Reminds me of how the refs robbed Michigan and gave the game to Alabama. ...except...how many of those 22M voted dem before they joined the ranks of the takers?

Good reinforcement of Thumb's good point.

Bingo. Just like Rove & friends thought Romney's election was in the bag.

You're welcome, idiot.

And those smart conservatives - at least half of them attended the University of Michigan.

You know the University of Michigan?

The University located 40 miles away from where Mitt Romney was born?

Part of the great State of Michigan's higher education system that Mitt Romney's father oversaw?

The University of Michigan, where Republican President Gerald R. Ford attended?

Again, you're welcome.

Idiot.

I was part of Michigan's higher education system. There are many great schools at half the cost of U of M. Retired at 49..I'm not complaining

Retired too early if you'd sell your word for $1,000.

The list was not meant to infer totality, just examples.

If you feel slighted due to my omission of your name, I'm deeply sorry.

 

[tsmith7559]

my offer on the bet was clear...once he disappeared and money wasnt collected up front. the rest was all BS...then he shows up 5 months later...lol...

this makes no sense...but whatever

Also Tinsel is right, while you might be quite conservative, you don't come off that way, except the few times religion is brought up.

You actually seem to be the most centrist poster we have here.

Are you basing your defense on the "fact" that elrod did not mention it in the 5 months between the bet and the election?

Don't be sorry. I'm not feeling slighted. I think of myself as center-right, so I wouldn't be surprised that I wasn't one of the first conservatives you thought of. Heck, you could say I'm a lefty and I wouldn't be offended. I just like to hear what others think. It's food for thought.

But ....but, $1000 isn't a lot of money


to tsmith. However, it could mean A LOT to a charity of the Board's choosing! Talk about TRICKLE DOWN!!!

I will donate ONE-THOUSAND DOLLARS to a charity determined by majority VOTE of the board Members if "tsmith" finally MAN'S UP and lives up to his Word and pays elrod the $1,000 he clearly BET him and still OWES him.

Extensive Documentation of the wager can be found in the thread entitled, Smitty, courtesy of RedandGuilty.

I will pay via PayPal or will provide photographic evidence of the ONE-THOUSAND DOLLAR Charitable Contribution as I AM A REAL MAN AND MY WORD IS TRUE.


So come on, tLIAR ---

Pay the man what you owe and a Charity will benefit by my gentlemanly altruism. Offer extends through November so that any Charitable Contribution can be made in 2012 calendar year.


Consider yourself called out.


Dipshit makes a bet he loses and welches. Realizing he doesn't want everyone to think he's a bitch, he makes good on the bet and pays elrod the $1000 he owes him.

Consequently, TheVictors; Gentleman, Scholar and Philanthropist makes a donation along with matches from the Gentleman Elrod and TinselWolverine, ESQ.

Hell, I'd buy you a $1000 gasoline gift card if I could write it off.


You seem like someone looking for a handout.

NO. I wanted a serious bet, but once I suggested the money to be put in a 3rd party hands...he wasnt into it and I guess I understand, not putting the money up isnt a bet in my world. I dont know him and he doesnt know me...so I moved on...Sure I tried to make several bets, but no takers...until the election is over...of well
