Mccain..
 
Im listening to him talk right now on the tube...

Iran is the issue and he sounds exactly like bush did before we went into Iraq. How the %$%$%$%$ could we possibly deal with Iran when we can hardly deal with Iraq??

If he is voted in, I am moving to mars.

Well the other choices aren't much better.

Can't have Iran disrupting the oil flow after Exxon/BP takes over Iraq's oil reserves.

The other choices are at least talking more about fixing our problems here at home and not trying to address problems on the other side of the planet.

:cputin:

Let's hope they follow through with those promises and not get snatched up in the rhetoric of the moment.

Nebe 06-02-2008 10:25 AM

The biggest promise is to change course away from Bush's iraq train wreck. Sometimes vague is good.

striperman36 06-02-2008 10:40 AM

you mean Cheney's train wreck redux

Nebe 06-02-2008 11:00 AM

well yeah sure, but bush's name is on the bill.

spence 06-02-2008 11:53 AM

Something really frightening from the Scott McClellen interview on Russert yesterday.

In 2004 when Russert asked Bush if he felt the Iraq war was an elective choice, Bush seemed to fumble the response.

Afterwords McClellen remarked that Bush has ask him what Russert was getting at by that question. As in he didn't really get it...

Either Obama or McCain would be a tremendous intellectual improvement over where we are today.

Nebe 06-02-2008 12:12 PM

improvement, but what course would they take? a warrior or a peacemaker? hmmm. :rollem:

striperman36 06-02-2008 12:30 PM

Anyway there will be a different 'approach' come 1/20/09

maddmatt 06-02-2008 02:49 PM

farsi

Nebe 06-02-2008 03:05 PM

Maybe, but I bet there is a huge GWB sticker on his car...

Nebe 06-02-2008 03:37 PM

Multipe wife thing. If that rubs your rhubarb, you dont got to go to Iran for that, just go down to south central Texas.

So you assume that w/o GWB or McCain we'd immediately become Iran?

Seriously?

I said GWB, not NRA.

So you claim, but in the previous breath you assert that an Obama presidency would mean the destruction of America by a piss ant 3rd world Iranian theocracy that could be hanging by a thread at any moment.

Sounds more like you're willing to throw Lady Liberty under the bus to score some cheap political points. Not very American if you ask me...

Spence,
I never expect an answer, just more Rush/Savage rhetoric

i guess i learned my lesson

never argue with fools
they bring you down to their level then beat you with experience

we survived wilson, carter, clinton and we'll survive obama if that's what god has in store for us.

Nebe 06-03-2008 11:24 AM

I learned my lesson too. never argue with a guy with a NRA sticker.... He will shoot you. :buds:

RIROCKHOUND 06-03-2008 11:38 AM

Arguing implies you made a contrary statement.
Spence and I formulated a question.
you ignored it.
ipso facto, we win :D:D

Drawing is not one of my strong points. however, having a BFA in fine arts, Id wager to guess I can out draw you any day. :hee:

Not only do I wear a skirt I am a certified art fag in the eyes of the typical alpha male. In the eyes of a woman I am fabio. :rotflmao:

ok, hows this?

never discuss politics with fools.

RIROCKHOUND 06-03-2008 12:06 PM

Thats the answer I thought I'd get.
You made a stupid statement about Americans becoming Muslims because Obama might win the election, and then you sit back and call us fools instead of addressing what you said, and what we asked in response to your question.

maddmatt 06-03-2008 12:14 PM

blah,blah,blah

RIROCKHOUND 06-03-2008 12:19 PM

Just the type of thought out, intelligent response I'd expect from a gun-toting right winger.

Nebe 06-03-2008 12:32 PM

where is happymatt? surely one can not be mad about everything?

did you guys know it requires twice as much energy to be mad as opposed to happy.

group hug guys.. group hug.

Who is the bigger fool?

The warrior who Kills to solve a dispute

The diplomat who negotiates to solve a dispute


hmmmm. I guess the answer depends on how much a barrel of oil costs after its all said and done.

That's a little childish don't you think. You have no idea what the NRA stands for.You sound like a Hollywood Idiot. Obama is a joke. you know it. I know it and the rest of the world knows it. He is a preacher and you are a sheep

So I can't help myself, what precisely is he preaching?

The rest of the world thinks he's a joke? Show us proof? The real world? Or the buckman snowglobe world?

If you're going to make bold statements such as this at least have the ability to back it up.
