“I expect this sort of stuff from World Net Daily or The Fox Nation, but here? ugh.

Biden quitting would derail Obamas presidency, (Can't even pick good VP), which is why THOSE sites would promote it.”

“>> I appreciate man's contribution to science & the medical field

As opposed too whom? Fruit Bats?


I am an Engineer so I have a fair idea out how nature is used by mankind. I can tell you that there is no plant I can rub on me, no chanting or orienting of my furniture that will work as good as real medicine or actual science.

To skip vaccines because a VERY few may get sick is like living in a fallout shelter IN CASE an asteroid may hit.”

“I cannot tell what side you are on. You attack us like we are against vaccines, yet we clearly state we are for them.”

“I'm on the side of truth, bookon, for the sake of our children & generations to come.

I appreciate man's contribution to science & the medical field but also know how Mother Nature has been robbed, so much to the decline of our health as a whole, that disease runs wild & increases year after year.

Greed rules at the top in most every profession in this supposed to be great nation & that has to stop.

We are the guinea pigs & have been for far too long.

This very matter of the truth behind Gardasil should show the world what it's really about & how the health & well being of our nation does not matter to many of those we have put our trust in.

Wake up America! Your children are at stake.”

“Birthers, 911 nuts, anti-vaccine people... Have we all gone crazy? Please stop this madness. These conspiracy theories are dangerous.
Anyone who doesn’t get their children immunized because they read some idiot on the internet say it’s dangerous should LOSE their children.”

“The writer here makes a good point, all these other claims of racisim, like the obama cartoon, detract from REAL racism, like we have here. This is an easy call on the "what gets a talk radio shmuck fired" meter.”

How Many Partners Makes You Promiscuous?: More On The Never-Ending Debate

“When I was first dating my wife she asked me "How many?" I thought about it, took my best guess, THEN CUT THAT NUMBER IN HALF, thought about it some more, THEN CUT THE NEW NUMBER IN HALF and then gave her that number. She smiled and said, "Me Too! How funny!”

I wonder who lied worse?”

“I read once that typically, men will double the number of partners they've had, while women will typically halve it. You did the opposite, but, hey, maybe she did, too!”

“All my fellow liberals who are anti-choice, pro war and against ANY restraints on Government spying on its own people, want 2 more like Roberts and Alito and want to invade Iran should vote for McCain.

Everyone else should just get to the business of electing Obama and starting to fix the mess the Neo Cons have gotten us into.”

sfarnell replied on Jul 04, 2008 at 05:48:24

“Don't blame those who vote their conscience instead party. What is this, the Soviet Union? I think the blame lies with the spineless Dems who talk a good game but never deliver. Where's the accountability?

Those who think that all we need to do is elect Obama and he'll be free of any constraints so that he can deliver on the progressive agenda are kidding themselves. Don't hold your breath. As soon as he's elected he'll start thinking about being re-elected and will be forever triangulating and using his liberal base as a punching bag and "fall guy." It's so Clintonesque.

Next, Obama will go sideways on the immediate withdrawal from Iraq over a 16 month period. It's like Obama has become Hillary Clinton. Her advisers are becoming is advisers. I've never seen such a quick lurch away from those that "brought ya to the dance."”

Beninn replied on Jul 03, 2008 at 19:12:06

“You're not getting it. If Obama is caving now on something so fundamental (and today's Iraq equivocation is flip-flop #5 in two weeks), it means that he's done needing the pro-choice, anti-war, leftwing of the Democratic Party, and once he made it into the White House, his nominees would be in the mold of Roberts and Alito.

These moves means that he thinks, generally, that we are more soft-hearted, weak-willed, forgiving (we "discovered" him, we worked and financed him, we put him where he is), and will come around to his way of thinking, or just cave, because, "Where else do you have to go?"

In the end, it really doesn't matter what he thinks because for him to have done all of this in two weeks means he doesn't care what we do. HE DOESN'T NEED THE BASE. That's what this means. He's got new "benefactors" (money) and he's probably looking at polling that's telling him that the Christian right is his for the plucking.

We've been thrown under the bus.

“Jim Webb. That's it. That's the list. He gets Obama Va. which means he can lose Fla and STILL win. Also, Webb is a tough SOB. They can go Good Cop Bad Cop and GET STUFF DONE.”

NeoStar9 replied on Apr 07, 2008 at 15:38:05

“I would not be surprised at all if he were to ask Sen. Webb to run with him. The media talks about how picking another senator isn't good, or how it hasn't been done in a hundred years, etc but I don't see a problem. This would take care of the issue Obama has when it comes to the war and the military in general. That's really the only major issue that he can't seemingly cover himself.

Like said it gets him Va. most likely and it also helps Sen. Obama even more in the middle of the country as well. If the new GI Bill is passed or not, the fact that Sen. Webb is pushing it helps and makes a great non-negative ad against the Republicans.”

“Don't know much about Webb outside of the fact that he doesn't appear to be a kissass. Sounds like a decent match.”

“Would love to see Webb as his running mate. Isn't he a Clinton supporter, though?”
