The 2008 US Presidential Election Thread

[whirlwind]

I've traveled the World over and breath a sigh of relief each time that I return to America. I don't want change, especially the kind of change that Obama and the likes of his wife want. I want reform. Can McCain/Palin, with the power given them, make a difference? I have more faith in them doing so and feel that Obama will only make America weak and vulnerable.

I'm going to think positive on a McCain win as I have always believed in "The Power Of Positive Thinking."

You know, I am convinced you are just an evil, ugly person with a single shred of decency in you. I don't like Obama's policies it's true, but I never spewed the hateful shit toward Obama you and 7 and others have spewed toward McCain and Palin.

The fact you are raising children is scary to me, much the same as I feel scared by KKK or Black Panthers raising children to hate.

Listen you cocksucking, self-righteous fucking pig...I posted the video because it was amusing! Your opinion means absolutely NOTHING to me. You're a fucking know-it-all prick, who has a nerve and a half to come onto this board and express concerns over me raising a child. Leave my child the fuck out of your partisan bullshit world! I would NEVER EVER EVER raise any child to hate, nor would I EVER instill my belief system on my child. My child will always see the world through his own eyes, and allow his opinions to be formed from the world around him, not what his father thinks! In spite of our differences, I thought you were one of the okay ones on this board. I now know I was dead fucking wrong about that. You are a fucking douche!

It's not funny...and you preach hate...I am a know it all, or at least know about what I speak, when I don't know something I read and listen, you should try it. I am not self-righteous though, typically liberal you don't just like your faults being pointed out.

If my opinion meant NOTHING to you as you put it, you wouldn't be so riled up.

And all you DO is post hate here, with comments like "puppet Palin" so on and so forth. I would condem anyone who did the same to Obama or Biden.

Let me put it another way, would you let your child speak about someone they don't know they way you speak about McCain and Palin? I doubt it.

John, Stu is right that you come across a little over-the-top on the hate with McCain and Palin. Stu, comparing John raising his children to the someone from the KKK or Black Panthers raising their children is over the top also. I like both of you guys and I don't want to see you rip each other part.

Obama Boots Reporters From Papers Backing McCain

The report claims those seats will be filled by "network bigwigs" and possibly reporters from black magazines ESSENCE and JET.
Friday, October 31, 2008

The Barack Obama campaign has reportedly kicked writers for the New York Post, Washington Times, and Dallas Morning News off the campaign plane. All three of the papers have endorsed Republican John McCain for president.

According to Matt Drudge's website drudgereport.com, the reporters have been told to pack up their belongings by Sunday.

The report claims those seats will be filled by "network bigwigs" and possibly reporters from black magazines ESSENCE and JET.

Those close to the campaign have also said the seats were vacated to make room for a crew filming a documentary of Obama's final campaign days.

Another rumor swirling around the subject is that the Obama camp made the move in response to left leaning reporters such as New York Times' Maureen Dowd who complained of being booted from the McCain plane.

The newspapers are planning to continue following the campaign by flying commercially or driving.

In all honesty, this thread has become nothing more than a forum to one-up each other with one's favorite blog sites, political leanings, and LIFTED talking points.

I can cut & paste as well.....

It would make a GREAT ESL class though.....

I'm not here to defend anybody on those remarks. You guys can hash it out. You're big boys. I only "defend" BJG and Lula because they're my fellow Hillary supporters and my peeps. But I think taking it to a new low regarding John raising his son like the KKK or Black Panthers crossed the line. Actually, John made some very moving statements on this site regarding his unconditional love for his son and how nothing would change the deep love and affection he has for him (even if he turned out to be gay, which would disappoint him). I'm sure he's a wonderful father.

My niece came home from middle school yesterday, 12 years old. She said two friends were talking about Obama. One said, I'm so scared of him. The other one says, he scares me too. My niece asked why. One said, he kills babies. The other one said, yeah, he's a baby killer. Now, that's great parenting. My niece's father, who is a staunch Republican, was disgusted at putting such things in children's minds.

Technically, that is accurate though.

I mean really, believe what you will about abortion and viability and when life starts and such, but how is that any worse than saying Republicans hate poor people or kill black people by way of natural disaster? There's less emotional/evocative ways to describe Obama's stance on abortion (a practice that though personally repugnant to me, carries about 0 weight politically for me), but I mean it is what it is in those parents' eyes. That's not bad parenting to me.

Wow, Former Republican Secretary of State Eagleburger and McCain supporter on NPR gave an assessment of Sarah Palin if she needed to step in in case of an emergency. His analysis of her abilities were underwhelming to say the least. Poor McCain. Plumber Joe didn't show up at his rally , who he relies on, and now this.

You leftists always try to invalidate any other opinion that doesn't match yours. Give it up, dude. I've shown counterargument after counterargument to the fairy-tale stuff you post and all you can usually come up with is stuff like "You're 100% wrong!!", trying to beat the opponent into submission rather than using your own brain and coming up with solid arguments. As Stu pointed out earlier, scientists worldwide are just as in bed, if not more so, with Government subsidies and grants from environmental organizations as you claim the other side is with energy industry fatcats.

Nothing is EVER enough for you guys, is it? ALL of the nationally and internationally recognized scientific organizations completely ratify the humankind-caused warming theory, and they are NOT tied to "environmentalists" and "politicians" to near the degree to which almost all of the rogue "dissenters" are.
