Presidential Election (as a current event- watch the tone or it's gone)

Wow are you late, Switch.  I said that a LONG time ago.  How it was underhanded by Romney, but I understand WHY he chose that.  He (and all real conservatives) blame Huckabee for splitting the conservative vote allowing the Republican MACHINE in conjunction with the Democratic Party and the Liberal Media to pick the most liberal republican currently running for the nomination.

Dunno what Rush, Sean, Drudge, or any of the other political commentators are doing.  They don’t impact me what-so-ever since i don’t listen to them.

All I can say is that anyone is better then Hillary and anyone is better then John.  That leaves Barry.

Personally, I think we are seeing the culmination of a “deal” made 8 years ago where Bush in the wake of SC agreed to backing McCain later.

My father was the one who said that after SC in 2000 a deal was made and McCain would be the next Republican nominee (he said that back in Feburary 2000)…  8 years later, despite the firestorm of folks like Limbaugh and even the major media saying McCain was DRT 6 months ago… low and behold, McCain IS the Republican nominee.

Just a bit too much Deus Ex Machina for that to not have some serious planning and power behind it…

I’d be really disappointed if this was some back alley deal between the Current President and McCain.  Though, I would NOT be surprised.  They are from the same mold.  Junior calls it the Compassionate Conservative mold, I call it the Donkey in Elephant Pants and Mask mold.

All I can say is that anyone is better then Hillary and anyone is better then John.  That leaves Barry.

I love Barry Manilow. Id vote for him.

oh no.  who in the hell is this.

Pizza dude had his posts deleted (about 20 of them… all identical), and I have recommended that he be IP banned.

Voting for J MCcain is like trying to pick up a turd by the “clean end”.

I will vote for whomever the dems put forth.  In 4 years you are going to have a mess in the government no matter who gets elected and I would rather the blame be on them.  I am more concerned about congress… the dems already have the white house (I count Johnny as a dem).

@Cmdr:

I call it the Donkey in Elephant Pants and Mask mold.

The Donkeys are the Republicans and the Elephants are the Democrats? Or viceversa?

Boy, sure USA politics are tricky … there are more guys and factions than in Silmarillion…

Republicans are the Elephants, Dems are the Donkeys.

there is only one reason as of right now to vote McCain over the others and thats for the Courts. his choice will be better then theres and it is the most vital as we have sceen from past press’s that a Dem apointed member of the supreim courts seam to be about the constatution being ever changing.

correct man.

gotta stop the democratic justices.  they make laws from the bench.

If he hadn’t voted against all the republican judges that were nominated, I would say that would be a reason to vote for Johnny.

Anyway, let’s retake Congress, there are more dems up then reps I believe and with Congress having the LOWEST APPROVAL RATING IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, about half as good as President Bush’s it should be EASY to retake it in a red tide in November.

Hell, to unseat Durbin, all the Republican here has to do is play Durbin’s speeches, in their entirety, with him saying US Soldiers are nazis, rapists, murders, baby-burners, etc.  That should be enough to get at least 1% of the Senate converted back to Republicanism.  Jim Obewiese out here seems to have a lock on Hastert’s seat, his democrat opponent is running ONLY on his own money since the state will NOT back his bid.

And, for the record, I don’t care WHO the president nominates for Judge.  He has to be approved by Congress.  If we own congress, we own the Judiciary.  Well, we would if our Republican leadership would grow a pair and dip them in brass.

Let the Dems have the White House.  Republicans in the Congress kept Bill Clinton from doing anything too horrible.  We can have a Dem who will go to Europe, bow to his masters, lick their feet, complain how backward and stupid our Congress is and “if only we had smarter congressmen and senators, we could be so much more like you” and we can stop every piece of legislation that leaves his desk and force him into signing our legislation into law with simple veto over-rides.

McCain did vote for Roberts and Alito (sp).
i also think it’s more Republicans up to lose then Dems this time around.

Darlin, there are more then Supreme Court Justices that Senators vote on.  He not only voted against the judges, but he sided with the Democrats to stop the Republicans from breaking the fillabusters (which were not even being held correctly, mind you) and allowing the votes to proceed to appoint some law enforcers, not law writers to the benches in this nation.

Who the hell was this ham guy? My god.

Removed and submitted for an IP ban.  We have a rash of “food spam” lately  :|

No he didn’t.  He not only did not vote for them, but he sided with the Democrats to stop the Republican Majority from doing the work of the people and confirming these judges.

He may or may not have voted for the Supreme Court Justices.  But that’s like 2 out of hundreds.  Not exactly what I’d consider a majority.

GG - It’s Tuesday and I want my pizza!!!
