Funny how the only people being questioned in this article about offshore drilling live along the shore. I suspect that objective polls would show that a significant majority of Americans nationwide support it. As for all the detractors who complain that additional drilling won''t provide immediate relief, what''s YOUR plan? Build windmills? Run cars on water? Or just tax the hell out of the oil companies and consumer gasoline until nobody can afford it any more?

Kinda like Bush did? Twice? And McCain is doing because he thinks his military experience will make him a better choice.

LOL!!! During his later military career McCain used government resources to fly to various places and "consort" in adulterous affairs with women not his wife.

Yeah, Obama did it just like BUSH did! Does that surprise you?

What any man does with women is their own business and none of mine! I could care less!

Actually I should say the day that Obama bought and bullied his way into being the PRESUMPTIVE nominee!

I would also like to thank the Kennedy''s for coming out in support of me. There''s a lot of glamour behind the Kennedy name, even though JFK started the Vietnam War, his brother Robert illegally wiretapped Martin Luther King, Jr. and Teddy killed a female employee with whom he was having an extra marital affair and who was pregnant with his child. And I''m not going anywhere near the cousins, both literally and figuratively.

And I''d like to thank Oprah Winfrey for her support. Her love of meaningless empty platitudes will be the force that propels me to the White House.

Americans should vote for me, not because of my lack of experience or achievement, but because I make people feel good. Voting for me causes some white folk to feel relieved of their imagined, racist guilt.

I say things that sound meaningful, but don''t really mean anything because Americans are tired of things having meaning. If things have meaning, then that means you have to think about them.

Americans are tired of thinking. It''s time to shut down the brain, and open up the heart. So when you go to vote, remember, don''t think, just do. And do it for me.


Thank You,
Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.

Obama''s Thank You Letter

My fellow Americans:


As your future President I want to thank my supporters, for your mindless support of me, despite my complete lack of any legislative achievement, my pastor''s relations with Louis Farrakhan and Libyan dictator Moamar Quadafi, or my blatantly leftist voting record while I present myself as some sort of bi-partisan agent of change.

I also like how my supporters claim my youthful drug use and criminal behavior somehow qualifies me for the Presidency after 8 years of claiming Bush''s youthful drinking disqualifies him. Your hypocrisy is a beacon of hope shining over a sea of political posing.

And I DO support women''''s rights.

Strange, isn''t it...I haven''t lost one of my women''s rights even through the Bush years! I don''t suppose I''ll lose any in McCain years either.

If she''''s for women''''s rights then voting for McCain is like poking yourself in the eye with a shart pencil.

Posted by torocaca at 11:15 PM : Jun 22, 2008

That''s been pointed out to her, but she''s completely lost her mind now. She honestly doesn''t think that McCain Supreme Court Justices would dare touch Roe. She thinks it''s sacred because women wouldn''t stand for it. In other words, she''s a loon.

Yes, I''''ve already heard her say that on other topic boards.

I wonder if wiccan voted for Hillary because she (wiccan) is a feminist or because she''''s for women''''s rights. If she''''s for women''''s rights then voting for McCain is like poking yourself in the eye with a shart pencil.

I voted for her because she was the best candidate on the slate. And now I''ll vote for the next best candidate on the slate...John McCain!

It''s that simple. McCain is somewhat better than Bush, Obama is WORSE than Bush!
