McCain (if he really is a reformer)

He's not. Don't believe the hype. And Gidget the VPMILF isn't either.

 

[Raskal]

No joke at all (and no, not sarcasm either). The repub party is broken, and my hope is that McCain can (and be willing to) fix it.

I'm not as anti-Obama as some of the other posters here. I don't think it's the end of the world if he wins (unless he gets whacked, as Biden scares the crap out of me...) -- then we're all doomed.

However, I think McCain (if he really is a reformer) is the better choice to clean up Washington and Wall Street. Just my opinion.......

Whoa, WHOA! Biden scares you???!! Are you f#$%ing serious? Palin, a complete doe-eyed idiot in the face of any issue outside of hockey, small town politics and bailing her husband out of jail, DOESN'T scare you? WTF?

I'm ok with most of your post (though I don't have the faith in Mccain you do) since I think we're f'd either way, but you gotta' be kiddin' with the VP thing.

What would make you say that?

"Don't believe the hype"...that's humorous coming from a frothing Obama fanboy...

 

[PCL_128]

What would make you say that?

Simple: his policies. There is absolutely nothing "maverick" about anything he's proposing. Same old laissez faire failed economic policies. Same old failed foreign policies. Same old failed health care policies. Need I go on? Nothing is new here.

Obama has real policy proposals that take us in a new direction. The change "hype" has legitimacy for his candidacy, unlike McSame.

REAL pilocy? I love this. The only hype the junior senator had was taken away when the American people saw how fake this ****************************** bag turned out to be. He's a real patriotic american alright. Just look at his family roots!

Everyone is concerned about Palin's experience.

You can't argue this is the order from most to least experience with the candidates.

1. McCain

2. Biden

3. Palin

4. Obama

See whats wrong?

 

[PCL_128]

You can't argue this is the order from most to least experience with the candidates.

Actually, yes, it's quite easy to argue that that order is very, very wrong.

Then do it!

(have you figured out yet I like people to explain the blanket statements they make?)

I already have on other threads, and I'm somewhat short on time right now. I have to fly at some point, you know. I'll try to post tonight once I get to the hotel.

 

[BoilerUP]

Work??? That's for chumps!

(oh yeah I already flew 2 legs this morning, with 2 more to go today)

To say I disagree with many of your political conclusions would be an understatement, but by and large I agree with your assessment of things. Seeing as though I disagree, I always try to get folks to explain why they say or do certain things, so that I can understand their reasoning better. It may persuade me (maybe not) but I find its a respectful way to better understand the "opposition"...

Hi!

Palin more experienced than Obama?

Let's start with this:

The McCain campain prepared information to attack Obama's choice of VP, whoever that might have been, before Obama's pick (ALL candidates do this).

In their logic for attacking the current Gov of VA (whom Obama considered for VP), McCain was going to say that he was NOT qualified to be VP because he was ONLY the mayor of tiny Richmond. Richmond is about the 100th largest city in the US.

Furthermore, the guy was also unqualified, McCain was going to say, because he is now ONLY the Governor of VA, which is one of the smaller states.

So, by McCain Campaign's OWN LOGIC, Palin is TOTALLY unqualified, because she was the mayor of TINY Wasilla, AK (the 50,000? largest city in the US), and only the Governor of AK, which ONLY has about 700,000 residents,.

Palin ran the Wasilla budget into the ground, going from a budget surplus, to it's current deficit.

Palin claims she has experience running the budget of AK. AK has MASSIVE oil and gas revenue, and typically PAYS the each resident each month. Running the budget of AK is very, very easy, compared with running the budget, of, say, VA.

So, take McCain's word for it: Palin is less qualified than the Gov of VA, who is unqalified to be VP.

Hi!

3 or 4 years ago, the state of GA realized that many unwise mortgages were being made in their state. They passed state laws to limit the types of mortgages that good be written, so that the current loan mess wouldn't be occurring in their state. A number of other states did the same.

Then the Federal Governement, with GW Bush at the helm, and a REPUBLICAN congress quashed the GA, and the other states' laws.

Under pressure from lobbyists, who pointed out that restricting mortgages by various states would cut into the profits of their handlers, the Republicans caved.

They passed Federal legislation that OVERRODE any state restrictions. These laws took away states' power, and helped lead directly to the Socialization of the American Economy that is occurring today.

If you think rationally vs emotionally, there is no argument.

Dems feel their way through politics, Republicans think.

Just look at all the vial towards the republicans from the democrats.

It doesn't matter what the polls say. McCain is going to win this election. The empty teleprompter reading of Obama will not convince the fence sitter's and undecideds.

I am an independent and have voted both parties over the years. And i'm telling you, independents are mostly voting for McCain this year.

 

[Hobiehawker]

I can't find anything about McCain on Kaine and his qualifications. But since you brought it up, why then is it acceptable to have Biden question Obama's experience during the primaries?

Democrats often times miss the logic.
