FRIGHTENING AREN''T THEY? TO RAMALAMAOBAMA - I SAY: DRILL HERE, DRILL NOW, PAY LESS.

HIS ARGUMENT IS STUPID. IF CLINTON DIDN''T VETO OUR DRILLING WAY BACK WHEN WE WOULDN''T BE HAVING THIS ARGUMENT NOW. BUT SINCE OBAMA IS BOUGHT LOCK, STOCK AND BARREL BY THE SIERRA CLUE AND FINANCED EQUALLY BY GEORGE SOROS, HE HAS TO PANDER TO THESE FOOLS THAT WILL PUT THEIR MANDATES BEFORE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

Lordy, the lunatics are out in force tonight. Me thinks the Republican fringe is getting really nervous about Obama to keep upping this hysterical, senseless, blathering. We have two decent human beings running for president, an opportunity to discuss issues, but all we hear is nonsense. I will vote for Obama because I disagree with McCain on too many issues. I guess that is just too boring and we need all of that "swift-boating" to keep the kiddies awake.

Sarge: The same holds true with Americans and socialism. The typical person cannot distinguish between socialism / communism / and dictatorship. They hear socialism and they think gulags and Stalin-era state sponsored terror. They do not understand that the "socialist countries" in Europe (i.e. Denmark, Finland, Germany, etc.) practice democracy on a scale that exceeds our own, but they have chosen to opt for a country that makes sure all people have access to affordable (and preventative) health care, university degrees, paid family leave for pregnancies, etc. One can make their own decision about the wisdom of such things. The sad part is how so many make their judgements about such things based on ignorance and misplaced ideology as opposed to logic and intellegent debate.

Well said and sadly, 100% correct. Most Americans simply do not take the time to really understand what is being feed to them. If you ask one of them about Socialism most will indeed return with a repulsive knee jerk reaction to the old Soviet system. It''s this ignorance that leads them to toss around words like Marxism and fascism, without having the slightest idea of how silly they sound.

If Obama is not a Muslim let him renounce it the way a Muslim would renounce it!

If you are not a Muslim, then renounce it the way a Muslim would.

[kansas1946]

Obama tells you that a gas tax holiday is an election year gimmick that will do nothing to lower prices or solve the long-term problem. His plan sounds a heckuva lot more grounded in reality than McCain and the fellow fascist Republicans.

*****************************************

The Republicans have no new ideas, and their old ideas were bad. The Republicans had total control of this country for six of the eight years that Bush has been in office and they did nothing but run up the deficit to the largest in history, let Americans worry themselves to death about the cost of health care and insurance, have done nothing to encourage alternative renewable energy sources, in fact, have pretty much done nothing but create a mess to be cleaned up.

Is it the Wright way to have Damnation with Obamanation through Decapitation?
AKA God D_A_M_N America!
Listen all, Jews and Christians, and beware of the practice of the Muslim faith!
Sura (8:12) - "I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them"

There is some cool beheading videos online for those who want to see first hand experience of Muslim people who read the Koran that follow the path of the way of the beheading bliss?

The blade goes around your throat as you cry out for this not to happen? You begin to grasp for air as the Muslim cuts deeper and deeper into you throat. You realize that in a few seconds your head will be removed for the purpose of Islam. The last thing you notice is the eyes of the person who is cutting into your bone. You shriek your final breath as you know that time cannot go backwards for this not to happen to you!

This is the Muslim way to a better way!
Do you think Decapitation is the Wright way to have Damnation with Obamanation?
Listen all and practice!

If Obama is not a Muslim let him renounce it the way a Muslim would renounce it!

HILLARY SUPPORTER SAYS: "If they were good, they wouldn''''t have to deceive us. And this is why we have to take back what has been stolen from us. We can''''t allow the unfairness to win. We have to step back and reclaim what is rightfully ours."

Nothing was stolen from you. Your campaign made serious mistakes and you got beat. Your candidate, who I admire by the way, stood up there and spun a fabulous tale about sniper fire despite video evidence to the contrary. This reminded too many people, such as myself, of the down-side of the Clinton years. While there were many great things that came from the Clinton era (fiscal discipline at the top of the list), the constant lies and splitting of the lawyerly truths got extremely difficult to defend. That is what cost Hillary...the return of Clinton fatigue in a year begging for political change. Had she not had the baggage from Bill"s problems...and her own...who knows? Quit griping and get on board the train. Little separates Hillary and Barack in terms of policy. Little separates Bush and McCain in terms of policy and ideology. You decide.

"Socialism in general has a record of failure so blatant that only an intellectual could ignore or evade it" Thomas Sowell (American Writer and Economist, b.1930)

Notice how you every single quote regarding socialism you cite comes from some author prior to 1950. You do not find any quotes from modern intellectual who are actually from the Democratic Socialist countries I mention. Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Germany, France, and the various other western European countries all implement some form of socialist economy with democratic features. Result: better health statistics, education scores, and crime prevention in those countries. With the American middle-class under constant assault from the neocon Republican vision of unfettered corporate greed, Americans would be wise to return to a view that invested in our infrastructure, health, and education sectors. Privatization and unregulated capitalism, all conducted in the hallowed name of conservative ideology, has done nothing but bankrupt the working-class of this country

"The assumption that spending more of the taxpayer''s money will make things better has survived all kinds of evidence that it has made things worse. The black family- which survived slavery, discrimination, poverty, wars and depressions- began to come apart as the federal government moved in with its well-financed programs to "help."" Thomas Sowell (American Writer and Economist, b.1930)

"Socialism is workable only in heaven where it isn''t needed, and in hell where they''ve got it" Cecil Palmer

"Socialism is nothing but the capitalism of the lower classes" Oswald Spengler (German Philosopher of history. 1880-1936)
