EnderWiggin Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I don't really give if people riot or not, I don't want a left wing lunatic with ties to terrorists, radicals, and extremists to be President of the United States. Right now I'd rather see Hillary in the White House over Obama. Wow. Way to flame Obama & the democrats without making a factual statement whatsoever. _EW_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarfieldJL Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Wow. Way to flame Obama & the democrats without making a factual statement whatsoever. _EW_ Oh but it is true, does the name of William Ayers ring a bell, his state senate campaign started in this guy's home. Or how about the organization of ACORN. So maybe I am flaming the Democrats and Obama, I don't really care cause it's still true.

El Sitherino Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Oh but it is true, does the name of William Ayers ring a bell, his state senate campaign started in this guy's home. I'm friends with a man that killed 2 other men with his bare hands outside a bar and did some of my schoolwork there. Does that make me and my education tainted? Or how about the organization of ACORN. Cutest activist group name ever So maybe I am flaming the Democrats and Obama, I don't really care cause it's still true. Hi, I live in America where we respect people and their culture. Where do you live? In your country is it customary to make wild correlations? I was always raised with the motto "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all", I think generally it means don't have ill intent in your spoken words. Plus I'm like, this moderator type thing on this forum-majiggy. Here we have rules that claim no flaming, so if your lack of concern shows to members you may find your stay here a bit rocky. Terrorist Connections: William Ayers + Wife I'm on the terrorist watch list. Plus I know people that were '60's activists too. I'm pretty sure a lot of people do. Radical Connections Reverend Wright - Pastor for 20 years I believe he has stated that he does not share the sentiments of his former pastor. I can tell you the same, even though mine was a good mentor to me as well when I was into the Christianity thing. I'm sure people can name others but but those are the first three I can list off the top of my head. I'm sure we can criticize McCain's friends too, but that doesn't really do much except distract people from the real issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that make me and my education tainted? Not really, because to my knowledge you haven't lied about your associations to that guy. Furthermore, all Obama's radical associations fit together to form a picture that isn't pretty. Everyone has at least one bad association in their life, but if you have a pattern of bad associations over the course of your lifetime all of whom have similar viewpoints, would it be a stretch to say that you probably believe what they believe. Cutest activist group name ever They aren't a cute organization, ACORN has been in trouble in several states for voter fraud, because they have a history of registering people, pets, etc. that aren't elligible to vote. (Illegal Aliens, convicted felons, dead people, people that don't even exist, dogs, cats, etc.) Hi, I live in America where we respect people and their culture. Where do you live?

Uh you may want to look again at what he said, he changed his position several times on it. I'm sure we can criticize McCain's friends too, but that doesn't really do much except distract people from the real issues.

Tommycat Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I don't think McCain is personal friends with someone that says God d*** America Actually Garfield, I would almost be willing to bet he is. He's a former POW, he may have one or two friends that have said that at some point. Being in the military during the Vietnam conflict you are bound to end up with friends that may not be happy with the government. I'm friends with several people who have different views than myself. In some cases VERY different views. I'm even friends with people that like Jane Fonda too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me rephrase that, McCain isn't friends with and had that same individual be his religious mentor and father figure for 20+ years. And if you're talking about friends that had possibly been tortured and all that, that's a big difference from spewing it in a church in the United States.

Litofsky Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 This site puts Obama at around the same place, but counts a few different states differently. In either case, I'd say that Obama has taken the lead, for the time being. I wonder how the debate tonight will affect the polls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimartin Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 As of today, according to this website, Obama doesn't look too shabby at all. So can we change the thread title to What if McCain loses? This site puts Obama at around the same place, but counts a few different states differently. In either case, I'd say that Obama has taken the lead, for the time being. I wonder how the debate tonight will affect the polls? The debate can change the landscape if there is a major mess up by either candidate, but overall as long as the Economy is going down the drain the incumbent party is in trouble.

Det. Bart Lasiter Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 So can we change the thread title to What if McCain loses? White people get to be racist for a month without fear of reprisal, which includes one free saying of the n-word (variations such as "negro" do not count).

Nedak Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 If Obama loses I will: Step 1: Assume fetal position. Step 2: Await an economic depression. Step 3: Repeat step 1 Step 4: Laugh at anybody who voted for McCain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimmerman Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 If Obama Wins, I'll be in Germany for school. If he loses, I may just stay in Germany afterwards. I have no desire to live here under four to eight more years of Republican idiocy and hypocrisy. That, and Palin might be president...which scares the piss out of me. Eff that.

I may have to try a beer if he wins.Stay away from that slop they call Budweiser or Miller and you'll be fine. For celebratory drinking I recommend a seasonal wheat (although avoid IPA's if you don't like bitter flavors) from a micro-brewery. It'll hit the spot! Mmm....

Totenkopf Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 If Obama loses I suspect we'll get four more years of shrill lefties whining about how America is still racist and how they were cheated out of yet ANOTHER election. Let's hope the exit polls match the results this year so a bunch of partisan analysts don't assault us with the nonsequitur argument that such a difference proves that the election was stolen from their candidate. Regardless of who gets elected this cycle, they could prove to be a 1 term administration. We survived 4 years of malaise under Jimmy Carter (and 8 under Bush, to keep you lefties happy ), so I imagine we'll survive the next one too.

Inyri Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 At the rate we're going we won't have to survive four years with a Republican president because we'll have a Democratic president. Besides, it's not McCain I'm worried about. It's Palin. I was okay with McCain until he picked her for a running mate. I mean this isn't like 2004 where your options were Idiot #1 or Idiot #2. McCain's not a moron, he's just old and more prone to death, and he picked Idiot #3 to be his heir. >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a sad indictment when that seems to be the immediate response from any losing side in an election nowadays - that they couldn't possibly of lost without the opponents resorting to underhanded tactics...

Corinthian Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Of course we will. But that's alright, because the Race Card gets played so often, frankly, I don't think anyone really pays any attention to it anymore. Al Sharpton will make his typical spiel about how the Government just proved how much it hates the Black Man, and we'll get a few sycophants doing the head nod, and that will go on for the duration of McCain's administration.

Q Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 What if Obama loses? Well, I guess the downward spiral of corruption and BS will continue unabated. In other words, the exact same thing that will happen if he wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, I'd never heard of her (except maybe once seeing her in a quick news interview) and would likely have picked someone else. Still, it's kind of ridiculous to resort to arguments like McCain is death prone (we all are). Further, as I recall, BO seems to think there are 57-58 states in the Union and Joe Biden said that FDR addressed the nation on national tv to calm people about the depression. There was no national tv at that time and FDR wasn't even president till 1932/3. So, who is the real idiot here afterall? 2 on one ticket or 1 (debatably) on the other? And to think Dan Quayle was excoriated over only adding a e to potato.... Fact is, politicians are people who make gaffes and sometimes misstate facts. It doesn't make them idiots. Interviewers are notorious for leaving things on the editing floor that might reflect well on their "target" (nevermind cutting for time constraints).
