“Yeah, Cheney's in all of our heads. Like a horrible nightmare we won't wake up from until Jan 20th...”
Let the Blame Game Begin
Commented Oct 21, 2008 at 12:39:01 in Politics
“Can't you see
When you do the things you do
If it can only congeal
The ill that I'm feeling,
Don't blame me.
I can't help it
If that doggone moon above
Makes me want
Someone other than you to love.
Blame your need to harm
That melted your charm
But don't blame me”

Ayers and the McCain-G. Gordon Liddy Symbiosis
Commented Oct 13, 2008 at 15:41:45 in Politics
“Uh...did you read the whole article? FTA: "Gordon Liddy was making plans to firebomb a Washington think tank, assassinate a prominent journalist, undertake the Watergate burglary, break into the office of Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist, and kidnap anti-war protesters at the 1972 Republican convention...Did McCain mean to include Liddy's instructions to listeners of his radio show in 1994 (around the time Ayres and Obama were on a board together discussing education programs and other plots) on how to shoot Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agents (aim for the head)?"”

Our water drilling project is now also based at this center...A Health Clinic that will incorporate a drug rehabilitation center.” I can't begin to imagine what's appropriate in far away communities that are ravaged by desperate poverty, severe climate, tribalism, corruption and superstition, but I certainly don’t see how this has a place anywhere near American government.”

Lynn Forester de Rothschild von Cartier der Wha'?
Commented Sep 17, 2008 at 20:24:13 in Politics
“Now that McCain has the endorsement of the Duchess Fou Fou Pompidou Von Hoity Toit, I guess that locks in the upper crusty vote. Yesterday Nascar dads, tomorrow the world of polo and croquet! So who's elite, dahling? Sheesh, Lynn Forester de Rothschild sounds like a name made up by The Onion. She says Barack Obama is arrogant, but then she probably thinks anyone is arrogant who doesn't park her car and kiss her pinky ring.”

John and Sarah's World
Commented Sep 12, 2008 at 13:39:59 in Politics
“Why on earth has American society allowed opponents of pro-choice to hijack the word "life", as in "pro-life"? That's a form of push polling. They aren't pro-life. Palin vigorously supports the death penalty, as do many so-called "pro-life" proponents. That sounds "pro-death" to me. They should be called the "anti-choice" candidates.”
vinny replied on Sep 12, 2008 at 14:39:38
“our two party system has resulted in a extreme polarization of the abortion issue... both of which are politically extreme and morally incoherent... out of the two parties, only the Dems can break the deadlock and move toward a more coherent vision for the culture of life... this will require Dems to really question the foundations of radical feminist view that the woman reigns supreme in matters of life and deduce more reasonable, more palletable policy alternatives from actual liberal democratic principles...”
jimgilliamv2 replied on Sep 12, 2008 at 14:19:16
“Yes, and the same people opposed to abortion are not willing to support the children born. They are opposed to universal health care as well. They are opposed to decent education. The only thing that pro-life extremes want is no abortion. This is not a rational point of view because it is based on mythological religious belief that sound not be in the secular public arena.”

“"Both are black senators from Detroit." Good grief. What the hell does that mean? What is that information relevant to?”
warner55 replied on Apr 16, 2008 at 20:20:32
“What it means is 90% of Black voters are voting for Obama and for two Black Senators from Michigan and both of these Senators are the co-chair of Obama's campaign .
These two have worked over time to stop the re-do in
Mi.
This is nothing short of Racism. You can say it any way you want but it still is racist!
Let's not sugar coat this .”

The Alabama of Pennsylvania Mirrors New Hampshire

Obama: No Need For Foreign Policy Help From V.P.
Commented Apr 07, 2008 at 16:16:03 in Home
“The title of this article is completely deceiving. The writer seems to have missed the point that Obama was making about foreign policy experience. To think he's ruled out Richardson and Biden is an absurd, illogical leap. You also state "The fact that so many middle class Californians are giving $2300 to Obama shows both the depth of prosperity in the state". Would you consider instead that it might show the depth of sacrifice supporters are willing to make to have a good president?”
Florida Moves Ahead Despite DNC Threat

“The lopsided media coverage focuses on claims that "1.7 mil. voters are being punished". Yet, an equal number of voters probably stayed home. Nearly all the primaries have had a predominant Democratic over Republican turnout averaging 2:1, yet FL was only about equal turnout, and Mi was actually less. Anyone with half a brain knew those two primaries weren't supposed to count. Why doesn't the media mention that an equal amount of wise, moral, well-informed voters stayed away from the primaries. Why should they now be unrepresented and disenfranchised?”

You all think Florida and Michigan should not count and should not end up choosing the democratic nominee. You are entitled to your opinion, but what's with the venom coming out of Obama followers.
