[quote]Yeah and as usual I have completely missed it - or - there really is no point.[/quote] 50 -50 chance here JJ. and there are no lifelines. [e digicons]:time:[/e] tick tock tick tock what sez u?

[quote]Trouble is, the same standard - applied to Obama and Biden - would have them locked up as well. We are not dealing with saints, just varying degrees of sinners.[/quote] Funny how Obama is trying to put guilt by association on McCain (ie Just like Bush, Keating 5) but cannot be applied inversely? If you don't vote for Obama you are racist but one cannot say that if you don't vote for Palin you are sexist. [e dig
[quote]But generally (and statistically speaking), they tend to vote democrats[/quote] I was only answering for myself as I tend to vote Republican but have been known to vote Democrat too.
[quote]So who has dropped their land line for cell phone coverage only? [/quote] That's me! [quote]And who do they vote for?[/quote] Republicans and Democrats (but usually favoring Reps).
[quote]In short, should Ayers have been tried? Yes. Should have be condemned? Yes. Is Obama guilty by association? No. Are the American troopers who have done terrible things on the field guilty? Yes. Does anybody who has served alongside them be guilty by association? No.[/quote] Cikomyr, I'm not following your reasoning here. If you are serving with someone participating in war crimes you don't always have a choice who you serve with. </p
[quote]Bill Ayers targeted civilians. John McCain never did.[/quote] Dr. Guy, don't forget Ayers targeted FELLOW citizens.
[quote]I do not think republicans chose McCain.[/quote] I agree. It seems to me that the states with Independant voting in the beginning primaries allowed the Independants to have more of a say than the registered Republicans. The same goes for the Democrats as well.
[quote]Thanks AD for the link. I got this response: John McCain (Republican) 76.47% match which makes you liking McCain more than me!! [/quote] Why certainly. However this is quite surprising to me. I recall taking a similar one in '04 and I had a match of 62% with Bush. Granted I'm not overjoyed by either candidate they are the candidates closest to my views. If Ron Paul didn't express himself like such a nut I would pr
[quote]Gotta love how they can't even spell 'independent' right, though. Strong work, guys, strong work.[/quote] Yeah I thought that was funny. From the ones I've seen online this is one of the least biased version although they don't score points on spelling . [e digicons];P[/e]
Here's a link to see which candidate best matches your views. Not perfect I know but still. LINK Here is my result: Your Top Match John McCain (Republican) 77.27% match

I am in agreement with you Jill. I didn't really see anyone dominate over the other. I find it interesting that both sides are claiming victories here. I think both represented themselves and their party well. I thought that both put a likeable foot forward that is consistent with their personality. I think the media was greatly disappointed in their anticipation of Palin falling on her face. Afte
I like my granola extra crunchy and extra fruity! welcome back Alison.
I thought Fox had an interesting take on this. Because of the news regarding Ifill's book they are thinking more people are going to be watching both the answers and possibly even more closely the questions being asked. I think I'm in agreement with what I am hearing from the Alaskan people that Sarah just needs to really be herself on the stage. I think people keep forgetting that she has INCREDIBLY high ratings by Alaskans. Sure you can't please
[quote]LOl farmers dont even pay taxes.[/quote] It is quite clear you are not a farmer.
L'Shana Tova Larry!
That's probably one of the best political jokes I've read in a while!
Using your analogy.... Republicans (the conservative type) believe that the gardner is responsible for the care of their garden. This puts the success in the gardner's hands. Democrats believe that the gardner is too ignorant to know how to care for the garden and feels the imparative need to tell him how to do it. The democrats (who aren't gardners by trade) continue to impose their ideology of how to garden on the gardner should do t
Why is it no longer surprising that no one in the media seems to be calling this piece of work out on this? This is fundamental racism but I don't think we'll see Sharpton or Jackson on this issue. If anything this is MORE of a reason to NOT vote for Obama.
[quote]1. Actually for people who believe life begins at conception, it is not an issue of science. 2. That has been shown to be a myth. I would hope you would at least get the facts right 3. As is this. She said that the discussion of them should not be forbidden, and there is a big difference. Her position is basically "I dont agree with what you say, but I will defend your right to say it" while those who are trying to pin her down with their lies are saying "I dont like what
[quote]It's shaping up to look like a good move. Obama comes off like a petty partisan in this and even worse, he seemed 'out of touch.' 'Multi-tasking' isn't such a great idea when the nation is facing its worst financial crisis since the great depression.[/quote] I'd like to believe you Anthony R but the Polls (although I agree are usually pretty bias) show Obama up 1% as a result.
[quote]Obama’s response was, “If they need me, they will call me”. He was of course referring to his handlers, Reid and Pelosi.[/quote] This is funny coming from the guy who has voted "Present" pretty often while when he is there. [e digicons]:rofl:[/e] [quote]As for Obama, his constituents give him a pass on his senate attendance now, so why would they care if he's a no show now.[/quote] Maybe because when he does show
[quote]It is obvious in that respect that she is misrepresenting many things.[/quote] Can you name ONE politician that hasn't or isn't being accused of this?
