Nope. I don't even think we are really at war.

I think it's fantastic
A woman who won't take my guns away running with a man who won't take my guns away.

I keep thinking back to Hillary's campaign adat against Obama back in March...


"It's 3 a.m. and your children are safe and asleep
But there's a phone in the White House and it's ringing
Something's happening in the world
Your vote will decide who answers that call
Whether it's someone who already knows the world's leaders, knows the military -- someone tested and ready to lead in a dangerous world
It's 3 a.m. and your children are safe and asleep
Who do you want answering the phone?"


Now let's modify it a little... pick your party... doesn't matter...

"It's 3 a.m. and your children are safe and asleep
But there's a phone in the White House and it's ringing
Something's happening in the world
Your vote decided who answers that call
Whether it's someone who already knew the world's leaders, knew the military -- someone tested and ready to lead in a dangerous world
But the President died tonight
Who do you want answering the phone?"


I can only imagine one of them saying "Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore"

Ummm... who's the one who obviously doesn't know how to read or comprehend someone's position? I think anyone with an education would find you're statement as hilarious as picking a woman who has PTA member listed in her creds if you are calling Bob Barr a liberal.

Crawl back under your rock a little while longer if you can't open your eyes to the reality of two horrible "best of the best" the two major parties can put out there or if you're unable to ask for people's opinions when your ignorance prevents you from accepting ideas that aren't formed under your rock.

Neither one ever understands that the biggest solution to our economic woes is simply fixing the dollar. It would be quite different if our country actually made something other than Coke, Tobacco and Budwiser (wait, scratch that last one, I forgot, Cindy's family sold that one off so they could save $55 million a year in taxes in that tax haven we all know as Europe).

Please stop these personal attacks, and just discuss the issues.

[dromano]

OK, tell us your critical views on Obama/Biden.

Is Bob Barr a Libertarian?

Already did, search button does wonders. Just don't ask McCain how to use it.

I've spent way too much time searching for "your" posts on Obama comments.
Mostly it looks like you are a slap shot artist with a slip slide motivation.

Please, tell us your opinion of Obama/Biden.

What I found in your political posts leads me to believe you want to be some where else. Some one as cynical as you should be in Cuba, Venezula, Bolivia, Equador or China.

Hey, she's an NRA member and a hunter, they've got my vote! I don't care if they are Republicans lol.

(I was all set to vote for Kerry in 04, and then Bush (wisely) let the (useless) Clinton assault weapons ban expire, and that very day Kerry was on the TV telling people how "Bush put guns into the hands of terrorists by letting that ban expire" and I just thought "wow, if you think that ban KEPT ANYTHING OUT of the hands of terrorists (or any ban for that matter, considering most terrorists, like other criminals, have no regard for laws) you're an idiot...) So he didn't have my vote anymore...
Remember, criminals prefer unarmed victims

Now Ben, be nice. We can all discuss even political differences without name-calling. You sound like a Republican .......

At least I'm not asking for opinions of people then *****ing when you get it. The world does not revolve around your hole in the ground.

As for Obama, he just like Hilary are both non-factors. They can't be elected in this country provided they are running against some with, well a pulse (we shall see come Nov. if McCain has one).

Its as simple as the math. In a general election can you tell me when the last time the popular vote was won by more than 5%? I know, I'm asking you to do a search again, which from your computer science by McCain ability you failed to do but try again, you'll never learn unless you try. Just don't be like McCain and be unwilling to try!

Now, there is well over 5% of the population that will not vote for a black man (which I still wonder why he's assumed black as he's just as white as he is black). There is also well over 5% of the population that won't vote for a woman for president. It is as simple as a quick look at the math.

Aside from that, he's got big ears and a funny name but does have an ability to tap into something for a lot of people. Unlike Hilary who seems to gain support from the "what will you do for me crowd" he seems capable of getting many involved in politics, involved in the discussions that should be had and involved in wanting to work towards a stronger country. That's pretty good considering that much of his support base initially was from the "I don't have to work gen y and younger crowd".

As for you're continued PERSONAL ATTACKS I GUESS YOU CAN'T READ RESPONSES IN YOU'RE OWN POST, IGNORE THE REQUESTS OF THE MODERATORS OR ARE TOO BUSY LOOKING AT YOUR REFECTION IN THE ROCK that you cannot comprehend others can have differing opinions of what both the Republicans and Democrats have done to the future of this country. I believe strongly in this country for all of its failings it is still the great hope for the world. Sadly both parties have saddled it with huge foreign debts, a crumbling infastructure and a lowering quality of life for its citizens over the past 35 years.

I'd ask you to look up what history tells us that means but sadly, your mentality will do nothing for the future of this country. Your mentality will accelerate the decline of Rome. Your mentality will lead to the yet another dark age. Your mentality will simply force others to take shelter under the rock from hence you crawled.

benebob,

Not a bad job of personal attack Venom is what venom does

You made reference earlier to those that receive more than they put in and that you and your generation bare the result of the equation. I for one started SSI at 62 and have already received more than I paid in, do I feel bad about that? h3ll no!!! I paid in for 46 years, it's not my fault the funds were not invested properly. My dad is 91 and healthy, I'm looking forward to a lot more SSI checks.

Will you write in Nader or Keyes on 11/4?

Both of you are acting like "kids"! This could have been a reasonable discussion until the two of you started throwing your mess around! Respect each other's views! And disagree respectfully! Both of you are showing your colors way too much!!

Therein lies the problem. The Republicans want their cake and to eat it as well. They want to fight wars but not suffer at home.

They can't have it both ways. If you want to fight a war, then fight a war and be prepared to face the consequences. Otherwise, stop getting our soldiers killed in other countries over something that isn't a war.

As for Palin: The Republicans just better stop with the experience attack ads. If they don't, the Republican party just better adopt the platform of hypocrisy because that's what they stand for when they're attacking Obama, while having Palin on the ticket who's even newer to the game than Obama.

I will attempt to tone it down. As I've become older I have more difficulty "letting IT go". I know the system is way imperfect, it's the only one we have.
If some one takes shots at all the participants,i.e., "idiots", "slime" then I think that is wrong. If you don't take sides then stay on the side line quietly.
