what ever offering Mrs. Obama might make concerning her "first time I have been truely proud of my country as an adult comment"

dont undo the fact that she made that comment.
Right, and Brit Hume says - It's what it is and will be what it is.

YES! Bombing an ally???? are you kidding? especially a very important ally in the War on Terror?

Baraks idea is abandont Iran and bomb allies in an effort to win the war?


again, that is certainly a form of partiotism I am not really fond of...


and you make a GREAT point... yet another reason to not vote for B. H. Obama. He advocates bombing allies. That's something not even Jimmy Carter would do!

However, with this "Christian" President, homosexual marriage is now sanctioned and legal in 2 states. There are OTHER evils besides abortion and homosexuality. When I vote for Obama, I vote against these evils.

We are living in the last days and our country, the world, will decline morally with or without Mr. Obama.

if you can do that great! if not, then I consider you a poor source.

and the comment above about Sunnis, Shiites and AQ is propaganda. care to site the source?
Ferd, just for you I am going to look up the clips I have seen of McCain flip flopping on issues. Keep in mind that I am working right now, so it will be around another hour and half before I can look them up. When I find them, I will post them in this thread. Fair enough?

Sister, with all the black folks in your family I find it impossible for you to have anything against him because of his color.

I don't put value in many clips as they can be edited. I'd rather read a transcript.

What has Bush done that has furthered homosexual marriage and abortion?

He has appointed two conservative Justice to the SC who oppose abortion and has opposed gay marriage on a federal level which is all he has the authority to do.

I just don't see a decorated war hero tampering with the Seal. Can't see McCain doing that.

Very poor choice for this young, arrogant, skinny, punky fellow. JMHO, of course.

Punky - love that word!! It sounds and fits so nicely - like a glove!



I just got off the phone with all four major regional offices of the McCain campaign. You don't need to thank me.
I just don't think that some people realize how it comes across when they make the extreme accusations and then it doesn't hold up to scrutiny. It does cause particularly younger people to not listen to any of it. And that could be bad.
It's kind of like the group that yell "racism" in every situation. Eventually nobody takes them seriously about anything.
You made a key statement earlier in jest when you said "and since I don't like him anyway". You have clearly made your mind up and this was never an issue for you no matter who the Democrat was. My point is that there are millions of people out there who are actually looking for info to make a decision. When they run into bold, extreme statements that get them alarmed, but then dig deeper and see that there was nothing to it, it will turn them off. That is what is happening with a lot of young and undecided people. I have been saying from day one that turning mole hills into mountains are detremental because nobody will be talking about the actual mountains....or when you do talk about the mountains, noone will care to listen.
