Lucky... 0 #28 October 20, 2008 Quote Quote Quote I'm going with McCain. You always were. I could have been persuaded to vote for some other Democratic candidate, even Hillary instead. But not Obama. I just don't trust him. Too many questionable Islamic/Muslim/anti-American connections and he's been trying to cover them up or make them like they're not a big deal. >>>>>>>>>>>I just don't trust him. Yea, and he's gonna turn the WH into an egyptian pyramid!....I think I saw that vid Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hehe, heh, heh.... you know, for a minute there you really had me going .... My God. You're really serious. Well yeah, duh. Just look at his background. Associating with certain shady middle easterns, home grown ex-terrorists, radical black activists, etc. Even his own wife wrote a college paper with questionable content in it that I don't think makes her a good first lady for the country. Oh and by the way, the economy was pretty good (maybe not great) the first 6 years of Bush's presidency. It started going to shit soon after the Democrats took control of Congress two years ago. Then the perception is that we would rather have an Islamist terrorist than a Republican.... keep things in perspective. Yea, we had runaway inflation, the housing bubble had already burst in Jan 07, would you like evidence of that? Furthermore, if 911 wasn't Bush's fault per you, even tho he was in office for almost 8 months, then how is it the fault of the Dem House the day after they take office? BTW, the Senate is really a push, as it is 49/49 with 2 indep's, 1 of which goes Repub, Cheney is the tie breaker. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hypothetically going with you, it shows the decay of the RW....fix your own house and quit trying to win by default by fabricating these fantasies about Obama and terrorists. Remember, you guys did the same thing with Clinton and Jane Fonda? WOrked pretty well then too, huh? AmazingAs for inexperienced, Ivy League law school, top of class, taught const law for 12 years, state senator for 8 years, US Senator for 4..... yea, no experience. Then, as the right compared him to Palin, they act as if she's experienced. Several years as mayor of 8000 people, 20 months as governor and she's ready to be pres with the proverbial heartbeat away?

When are they going to realize they're busting their own balls by continuing to say how worthless Obama is, yet acknowledging people are going that way? The back end of that says that their party is worse..... they'll quietly come to that conclusion and quit clammering the rhetoric. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy9o8 2 #38 October 20, 2008 QuoteI voted for Bob Barr. OK, first let's attack his character. QuoteIn 1999, during Clinton's impeachment trial, Hustler publisher Larry Flynt offered money to anyone who could provide evidence that a prominent Republican had engaged in an extramarital affair. According to the American Journalism Review[69] investigators for Flynt found that Barr was "guilty of king-size hypocrisy;" the outspoken abortion foe had acquiesced in his then-wife having an abortion in 1983. Investigators also found that Barr invoked a legal privilege during his 1985 divorce proceeding, so he could refuse to answer questions on whether he'd cheated on his second wife with the woman who is now his third." Now, let's build it back up. Quote In the early 1990s, Barr was photographed at a fundraising event licking whipped cream off of a woman. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Barr Sound like he'd make a great skydiver!

Lucky... 0 #50 October 21, 2008 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ok, he has experience being a lawyer and a senator - where has he RAN anything? (Other than Annenberg Challenge and Wood Fund with Ayers, that is) Teaching a law class is running something. Organizing various foundations is running something. You might find it trivial because poor people must suck, but he has constantly and selflessly organized/ran things in a very meritorious way. OTOH, what has McCain ran or organized? The guy is a war hero, served his country, but what has he ran/organized? If Obama's 12 years between the state senate and the US Senate is not running anything, then McCain's is the same; what's your point? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Funny how you keep comparing Obama's experience against Palin - is that the only way you can show him as experienced? Still and all, Palin has several years more EXECUTIVE experience than Obama has. Not at all, I'm just cutting you off before you go there, I'd rather compare Obama to McCain, they have the same experoence within the gov, Obama far more outside the gov. Love it, then at the end of your post you DO GO WHERE I KNEW YOU WOULD and make a comparison between Obama and Palin. This si teh reason McCaone chose her, to distratc from McCain's limited experience, connections to Bush, old senile crustiness, etc. I mean it can't be reasoned for anything else, hell, they can't even let a reporter near her, she's an embarassment. And executive of a town of 8k is a joke as well. Governor for 20 months is still very inexperienced. And her education is less impresssive than mine and hers took several years jumoing from school to school. If she is the new VP she will be the least educated for decades I would venture to say.
