The RNC has decided to get in a kick or two:
…presumably on the principle that you never let a good dip in the polls go to waste. Based on the length, this looks like a web ad, which means… actually, the jury is still out on how effective web ads are. They’re certainly more cost-effective, but the dispute is on what their real reach is – and the dispute is rarely between people who don’t have a vested interest in the answer.
Full points on the big lettering, by the way. Subtle, this wasn’t. Nor was it particularly meant to be.

mom2oneson (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 8:44AM EST (link)I like using Biden against Obama
bk (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 9:13AM EST (link)Speaking of what a genius Biden is
bk (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 9:58AM EST (link)We get another example of the Obama/Biden transparency. The LA Times “Top of the Ticket” blog has noted how much time Biden spends in private meetings.
That’s right – he’s eliminating private meetings by calling them simply “meetings” – still closed to the press of course. Hey, if changing what you call terrorists or Gitmo detainees worked, why not?
I like the ad
Scope (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 9:34AM EST (link)hopefully it will get alot of play across the web. I believe they keep Say It Ain’t So Joe around just to make Obama look like he has some brain cells.
But that doesn't make sense
bk (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 9:44AM EST (link)Biden is a moron, but Obama is smart.
But wait, isn’t Obama the one who picked Biden because he’d make the next best President we could have?
Who’s the moron? Well, I’d say the people who voted for Obama.

izoneguy (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 9:57AM EST (link)Yet Obama supporters are saying the stimulus is working? What do they know? They know they don’t want dear leader to fail. I heard Obama supporters saying give Obama another YEAR to see the stimulus working….Ha, by that time hopefully we can kick out enough dems to take control and repeal the stimulus and close America;s wallet to the Commander in Thief.
The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.
bk- Obama redistributed his brain cells

By the way what comes after a Trillion?
penguin2 (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 10:21AM EST (link)I’ve readjusted my thinking on million to billion to trillion, but I’m stuck now. Do we have name for measuring dollars in that amount?
I like the ad.

That is a great idea. Do a fake living math book for children
mom2oneson (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 10:44AM EST (link)using numbers from the stimulus, healthcare, budget, cap and trade it would be so funny. They have given elementary math teachers of the world real life examples!
penguin2, your post title would make a great title
mom2oneson (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 10:46AM EST (link)that is why I thought of it.
Sorry I didn’t mean to hijack your post.
Mom2, I'm laughing. I guess so.
penguin2 (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 10:59AM EST (link)But you know I hope someone can tell me. My higher math thinking is limited (I’m a word person), so I was wondering last night if we have a name for the next step up? We certainly are headed that way. In fact if we added up all of the ones you mentioned, we might be there.
Is there a numbers soul out there who can help me out?

quadrillion I think
mom2oneson (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 11:10AM EST (link)It’s 1,000 trillions. Please someone correct me if I’m wrong.
Mom2, you know what's scary?
penguin2 (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 11:18AM EST (link)I have a Merriam-Webster Dictionary , 2004 copyright right at my here on the computer table. I could find trillion in it, no quadrillion, but I think you might be right. It makes sense from tri=3, quad=4.
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry about these money crooks who are running the government now.

great point
mom2oneson (Diary) Friday, July 10th at 11:54AM EST (link)You brought up a great point.
In other countries their billion is our trillion and the words are like how many times they have multiplied six by:
So 1 million has 6 zeros and thier billion (our trillion has) 12, like 2 bi x 6 zeros = 12 zeros.
Their trillion (our quintillion) has 18 zeros like 3 tri x 6 = 18.
Their quadrillion (our septillion) has 24 zeros like 4 quad x 6 zeros =24 zeros.
For here I just think ever 3 zeros it’s another different name not just so many of that word.
Anyone correct me if I’m wrong!
I know, it really is
your title stood out to me so much because I love teaching math with literature and out of necessity big numbers are always used with some kind fictional thing.
