The Messiah? How melodramatic. After 8 years of George Bush I would take anyone. Or anything. Like one of those magic 8 balls you ask questions to. Or a carnival genie. And that includes McCain. But McCain will not get my vote unless he starts agreeing that the absolute disaster of the last 8 years will be erased by him. It is unfortunate that in order to get votes, he will be unable to do that. He can’t run around for the next two months yelling that he was a POW and The Surge worked. Cause the POW thing was a long time ago, and in case people hadn’t noticed, The Surge wasn’t all it was made out to be. Just ask all the people killed by the Taliban in Afghanistan lately. Which is EXACTLY what people like me said would happen when “THE SURGE” was shoved down our throats. I mean sure Iraq is better. You can walk down the street without a flack jacket and gun, and hang out at the local police station in safety. Right?

And wouldn’t he be George Bush III?

The Messiah is the great uniter? Who said that? After the past 8 years, I wan’t to see all Republicans swept aside. Just ignore them, like the Republicans did for the first 6 years of Bush II

I must have missed where I said that only certain people should run for President, but thankfully, you’re back to re-educate me. I’ve missed that. I also never said that experience should be the only criteria, but POTUS should not be a learn-as-you-go job. I am sure you would be crucifying someone like Bobby Jindal (and his lack of experience) if he were running.

My problem with Obama is not that he has ZERO experience. He doesn’t, by the way. My problem with Obama is that his policies are a goose-step away from socialism.

I love it when you libs praised McCain for “crossing the aisle” as a senator, then immediately said he was George Bush II when he dared to run against The Messiah. According to factcheck.org, McCain votes against the Party more often than Obama does. But The Messiah is a uniter, right? Stop it.

And picking a doddering old racist who has been in the Senate longer than John McCain is not an accomplishment,

Yes. Unfortunately they weren’t listening to me when I said it was a bad idea. Guess who else didn’t listen? -

“Vice President Dick Cheney: “I’m confident that our troops will be successful, and I think it’ll go relatively quickly…Weeks rather than months.” [3/16/03]”

“Wherever we go we need to keep some form of presence; in fact, we have had some form of presence in the Gulf for a number of years.”

Our presence in the gulf was for Sadam. He’s dead now. Also, the Iraqis are making it clear that we are done around 2011. We are arguing with them to stay longer. Yet Dr Rice says;

“I do not mean that we will need to maintain a military presence in Iraq as was the case in Europe.” [8/7/03]

“Just because she isn’t a shrill hag, that doesn’t make her incompetent”.

Nor does being the Governor of a state with a poplulation lower then most major cities make you competent. It’s like comparing the little girl running the lemonade stand to the head of Starbucks. Please. If she didn’t have tits, she wouldn’t be on the ticket. McCain should ask Mondale how that worked for him.

Oh, and my mother was pregnant with my (very healthy) sister when she was forty, so sell that crap somewhere else. Idiot.

When the war started I heard estimates of 7-10 years. Hmm….weren’t you listening?

Wherever we go we need to keep some form of presence; in fact, we have had some form of presence in the Gulf for a number of years.

Just because she isn’t a shrill hag, that doesn’t make her incompetent.

Obama gave a good, scripted speech in 2002 and he is good at helping the needs of the inner city (finding the government programs to help folks–some good, some a waste). He views the suburbanites/rural folk as gun-huggers and such. Hmmm….seems a bit provincial in his ideas of others to me.

Biden is a crass, plagiarizing, lying sack of crud. Plain and simple. In my book, he’d make a great Philly Democrat. I wonder what racial gems he’ll have for us this election cycle? (For those not from the area…that’s not a compliment.)

So, I like the choice of a confident woman that holds a lot of the same beliefs and ideologies as me. I wasn’t totally liking the other choices. I’m not entirely all fired up about McCain, but I’ll be damned if I am voting for someone who answer a question and says it is above his pay grade. Wuss.
