Andrea- regardless of our opinions on who did what,,, I suggest that
we all work together,,,
In case you dont agree all the politictions of skeletons in the
closet,,, Like the Palin stuff....
the TV show host tells people to sell ( Kramer) and so is that fact?
I think we need to band together democrats and republicans and Americans
alike to solve th USA woes.
BOTH parties are Guilty of Mud-slinging... and lies... and if we tear
each other apart or On Mopo
not relize that the economy and the world eventa are not a big part of
the effect on our business and lives
then we miss the entire point,
Andrea.. to say im Rude is dissapointing... this is serious stuff and
this next month will have a great effect on your and my Life and Mopos
business people and collectors.
The current Crisis has nothing to do with Hillary,,,,, matter of fact
what I propose is instead of name calling and basically each side
destroying the other, we see that as a country we need to get on track
and do something,,
As for tax the crap out of anyone... Ive been listening and anyone that
makes 250K or less will not see a change and will actually get a
reduction..
As for people that spend 1000's on this Hobby if it is only a samll
elite segment that is in that Bracket of over 250 a year , I have to
saide with the middle class that is the foundation of all purchasing of
the Big Box stores,
Housing,entertainment,
To make nasty, sarcastic, derogatory remarks about the voteing and to
mis-align and make acusations
and summery judgement about any of these political people is the problem
and why we in my opinion are floundering.
Ive listened to Your opinion Andrea on many topics on the list and never
to my knowledge called you Rude
or spoke with disrespect.
I have made my comments from a personal perspects to provoke thought ,
and positive results for all.
I disagree with You..
I made my comments based on my respect for all mankind,, and everyone
and because I would like to see
the country get some balance and the world also get some balance.
If Both partys would focus on solutions instead of tearing each other
credentials apart .. we may get some balnce.. either party can also
start working together once we get a new president.
the anger and name calling and mud slinging is what is making the race
confusing to all the voters,
accusatins.. and all this propoganda.. ffrom either side,... is Not
good for anyone.
I wont speak about this politicle anymore - I was just excited as Brack
will be here 4 days and I thought
it was interesting. OHIO is the 6th hardest hit in unemployment in USA
also in Mortgage loss.
So this is a important time because we will all be effectly greatly in
the next month!!
This week will be very volitile in the market...
all the best to You Andrea.
best, Tom

Part of my coming to MoPo is to escape the bs from the Dems, ACORN,
and the creep they selected to be the US Puppet. His kind of change
will tax the crap out of the people who spend thousands of dollars on
this hobby, Tom!
Since I kept my passion for Hillary off MoPo this WHOLE TIME out of
respect for all of you, I expect the same. Tom, if you feel that
strongly, use one of his quotes at your sign-off, like I do. But have
the respect to NOT put him in the body of your message, as I often
read what you have to say and don't need that fool in my face on a
lovely Sunday morning!!! That was RUDE!
If you need to vote, he has plenty extra names you can use that he
pretends to not know about. Better yet, email ACORN and they'll send
you a whole city block of names. Don't forget, they take pets and
corpses, too!

Hello Mopo- Thought I would give a veiw from what I have seen in last
year as far as whats happening
in many sectors of our business
I started in 1977 and have seen several shake outs as far as
recessions. Movie memorabilia and collectables,
or diversions have typically been a refuge or escape for people
during rough times. Vintage material seems
to be pretty safe as investment however high ticket items can soften
as people have less money. The wealthy
it appears however are being hurt this round as they invested in
stock market and portfolios that were in mutual funds.
As far as assets the real estate seems to have been a fluffed up
investment loseing 30-60% value in the last year.
My House ( bought from Leyman bros.. was bought at 115K and is worth
at monent would guess.. 80 k and was financed
at 8.5 at 30 years fixed. Not a brilliant investment and only grace
was it was zero down.
Politically - Barack Obama is going to be here-( Toledo, Ohio) for 4
days at the maumee state park resort giving a speech tommorrow and he
will prepare for the last debate. here
I was at 1st for Barack and then I became confused as Both sides
presented great arguments and also
they both cast doubt on each others abilitys,, But this last week
when McCain defended Barack and said
we need not be afraid that hes a good honest man, I relized that they
both were brave to want to lead this country and that it actually
would be great if they worked together to achieve unity and to fix
the Usa
economic woes. They can as tey are both senators even after the race
in over so they can help each other.
So either way it turns out they should work together as Both has a
passion for this country. For me Barack has
endured so many attacks on his Faith, his color, his family history,
his past association with people
and the radical in question seemd to be a anti veitnam war radical.
well back in the 60's the hippies and people that wanted the war to
stop,, where considered radicals.. But
they wanted the killing to stop...At Kent state university in OHIO 4
-protesters where shot and killed by
Ohio Gaurd troops because they stood up and rebelled.. against the
WAR .. so Did the people at the Boston tea party... and
the entire USA was founded by Rebels that wanted to have thier own
country. The country is a melting POT
of every religion, and culture and ethnic group. That is why we have
so much diversity. If you look historically in so many areas like
engineering, and creative areas we have been a merger of all countrys
and all peoples... Not one but all...( One nation , with Liberty and
Justice for ALL) Look at the space program NASA, entertainment,
autos, electronics//
heck Ebay, computers , medical..aircraft, Foods, telecommunication//
we have been leaders and innovators in all sectors along with
allies in other areas.
I see it as we just need to see that its time that the world come
together as we will clearly see this week we are all
linked by a financial, energy and ecology and dependence on each
other that is a good thing.. because sure there are some with
differances in how to live but that has been since age of time. We
now have the ability to communicate and work
together in a way never before seen and have the technology to
correct the worlds issues if we work in a unified world that would
address health care on a global level. peace on a global level.
The recent events and the financial meltdown prove that we all need
each other globally .. and that greed does not work. PERIOD.
If we find new energy solutions in wind and solar ( Toledos Xunlight
is the world leader and also First Solar)
So we can make a differance, we can make a change and if we do as
our forefathers did and to get to work
and forge ahead we will survive any clamity either man-made or by nature.
So.... In summery --- I missed getting registared to vote.... as I
was so damn undecided.... and i was frustrated.... so yesterday
I thought what can I do to help? well... I thought Ill get some
signs and go to the rally monday..
well went there and it was two blocks of people waiting...... so I
came home... and thought.... well I could donate some items like a
megaphone, clapper and clock.... and maybe that would inspire Barack
to see some support
and would give him and the campaign crew some fun.. So I hopped in
the Car and went to the headquarters and said
well heres some stuff all MADE IN USA in TOLEDO , OHIO ... and
where's the yard signs?? they were out of signs... and out of
tickets to the rally..... so I at least tryed... and perhaps
if we all just do what we can no matter how small maybe we will get
Change.
I feel so lucky to be able to have a business and a chance to pursue
the american dream. I wish everyone on Mopo health and peace and
success.
Tom
