11th of November 2011 is significant because..? :roll:
Remembrance Day is observed on 11 November to recall the end of hostilities of World War I on that date in 1918. Hostilities formally ended “at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month,”

Another interesting statistic is that Obama received 10 million fewer votes than he did four years ago. In the back of his mind the President must be wondering what the future holds for him and if there’s another bin Laden moment that will boost his flagging popularity. He certainly needs one.
:-s
So sorry to hear that, tin.
I really don’t know what to say.
The names are on the internet. They are therefore, in the public domain. I don’t see that Philip Schofield did anything wrong.
What this does highlight is that the internet is an uncontrollable beast and anyone can post anything whether it is fact or fiction.
That’s the real issue here for me, not Philip Schofield’s actions.

He’s just won four more years in the White House.
I think he might just have a sneaking suspicion what the future holds for him such as four more years as President of the USA?
Just an observation.

The Labour Party changed the way our police forces operate. Every incident has to be fully invetigated whether the police think it’s necessary or not.
Sheesh.
You never give up do you?
Anything the Labour Party wasn’t responsible for?
:?
Well, if you read Philip Johnston’s book “Bad Laws” you might actually learn something.
Someone lent that book to me once.
I read parts of it – they were subjective as opposed to objective. Biased in every way.
I was so impressed by it, I gave it back. :P
LOL
I didn’t actually mean nursery rhymes. I should have been more specific. :P

He scared me Terry..bit too right wing for me.
He’s an entrepreneur with a $200 million fortune to his name. Obama was a lawyer I think and had 86% of the black vote. I wasn’t impressed by Obama’s dirty tactics to win at all costs.
If you want to bring race into it, 69% of Hispanics voted for Obama as opposed to 29% for Romney.
The majority of white Americans voted for Romney but 39% voted for Obama.
Seems Obama appealed to all races whereas Romney did not and that bodes well for a cohesive as opposed to divided society.

Yes Romney is very right wing, that’s probably why Terry likes him so much.
In Feb this year, during an interview with CNN after winning the Florida primary in February, he said he is “not concerned about the very poor. We have a safety net there. If it needs repair, I’ll fix it.”
Republicans on Women
Despite ad campaigns, targeted messages and polls that showed women were warming to Romney in the final days, he still lost the female vote to Obama, 55 to 43 percent, according to exit polls.
The loss wasn’t entirely his fault. Republican Senate candidate Todd Akin in Missouri discussed how women’s bodies could prevent pregnancies in cases of “legitimate rape,” launching a firestorm of protest. A few months later, Indiana Senate candidate Richard Mourdock, for whom Romney had just released an endorsement ad, said he opposed abortion even in cases of rape because God intended those pregnancies.
Romney tried to distance himself from both remarks, but they gave Democrats plenty of ammunition to argue that Republicans just don’t like women.
