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.

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

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.

I don't believe I quoted you. Why don't you make a long list of Obama's qualifications and enlighten us all. Or tell me something he truly stands for. I have an open mind, please teach me so I may follow too.

So sorry, but I am no sheep. Infact I am anything but a sheep. The more i think about it, those who need to join large orginizations like the NRA are actually sheep. I am a sea gull. Watch out or I will poop on you.

I have thought much about Obama and this is what I come up with. In general, Obama truely stands for one main ideal. The well being of the masses of this country. The people who make up about 80% of this country. Mccain will tell you that you can have your guns.. McCain will tell you that your god is his god.. McCain will tell you that he is looking out for you, but in the end, when you look at how most republicns operate, they are really looking out for the top 1% of this country. Did you know that 1% of our population ownes 40% of the wealth in this country? In the past few years, more and more tax burdon has been shifted from this 1% and put on your shoulders and your kids shoulders. While you and I focus on working our butts off to make a hundered or 2 hundered grand a year, that 1% saves a hundred grand every month on the recent tax cuts. What the normal person earns in a year is chump change. The thing is this- What one needs to pay attention to is what course this country is going down.. Bush and McCain are obsessed with global issues and nation building.. Obama has his own nation to re-build. Ours.

I choose to join organizations that protect rights that I believe in. By the way Obama couldn't even stand by his church when the going got tough. Some values. I am still waiting for the list. Someone in the herd must have one.

Couldn't stand by his church?
Can you blame him?
As far as I can tell the man stands by his religion.

Why is it so wrong that he walked away from his church when he didn't agree with it? If your church turned into a KKK meeting would you keep going?

And honestly, you accused him of being a preacher and us sheep, you must know him better than we do. Why precisely do we need to be telling you what he stands for if you already know so much about him?

However the top 10% pay 90% of the taxes. Why should one person have to pay for the 9 layabouts that don't want to put in the effort. Work hard and strife to be that top 10% don't just complain about it. I am not even close to the upper bracket but I don't begrudge them for what they have. Why don't you swap your tax bill with someone who is "rich"

I'll have to admit I had a little falling out with the church myself being Catholic but he never complained or left untill it started to hurt his poles. That's why I say he has no values.

Maybe he had family who went there? Friends that went there?
Haven't you ever been in the situation of "well... he still goes, eh, i'll go anyhow..."?

He didn't abandon the church until the pastor refused to apologize for what he said.

I wouldnt be so quick to judge him over the church thing. Just because you do not agree 100% With your preist/reverand/rabi, does not mean that you reflect the same values, nor does it reflect that you have to find a new church. So he didnt agree with the guy and he stayed... so what. So he left because the media pounced on this as one of his weaknesses.. so what. I would have done the same thing. The social aspects of church sometimes out weigh the religious aspects. I would wager to guess that every affluent black person in his town attended that church. Sometimes sheep are slow to leave the flock, unless wolves are hopping the fence.
