So you are just gonna PRETEND that the World trade center WASN'T bombed before?
Let us not forget that clinton had at least two opportunities to get rid of the bastard that bombed the trade center and OH YEAH Hired 20 pieces of crap to fly planes into it 7 years ago!!!!
Revisionist history, GOTTA LOVE IT!!!!
Talk about revisionist history lol.If your going to give all this credit for no attacks to Bush then he has to take the blame for 9/11 as well.He was the President at the time and had been for a while.But both are not really accurate IMO ,I won't blame Bush for 9/11 and only future history will tell if we are attacked again and possibly why or why not.Lets remember there was 8 years in between the two trade center attacks.
I love how you people post a question about Why people vote Republican. THEN When someone actually replies with an explanation why, the WHOLE bunch of you attack them like they are a horrible person when they do.
I personally see anybody willing to vote for obama to be less than intelligent.
The things he is promising have NEVER WORKED and history bears this out.
This even extends to some of you basically calling me stupid and oh yeah one called me a whiner because of how I believe.
The reason I believe the way I do is I believe liberalism to be a lack of intelligence, and I have yet to meet a liberal who can tell me one thing obama has actually accomplished.
Just one thing. and tell me how he is going to accomplish this "Change".
Don't ask a question about a subject if you don't want an honest answer.
I have seen people here bash republicans mercilessly, call conservatives racists, call people who believe in something higher than themselves names I won't repeat here and all in the name of a party who claims they are for "tolerance and respect for everyone".
You people can't abide anyone who has a different opinion from you. You prefer to belittle them and attack them and call names, this has happened to me more than once, though I don't figure anyone has the guts to own up to it here.
Let us not forget the Iraq war was a UN MANDATE! That means for the liberals in the audience that the UN is the one, REPEAT FOR YOU SLOW PEOPLE, THE UN is a big reason for the reason we went to IRAQ to begin with, but again REVISIONIST HISTORY will raise its ugly head again here.
And more revisonist history,the UN did not authorize an invasion of Iraq.Remember Powell went up there and gave a big presentation full of BS I might add that he was really mad at Bush about later and still is.Here is the scoop from wik.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2003_invasion_of_Iraq
"In February 2003, U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell addressed the United Nations General Assembly, continuing U.S. efforts to gain U.N. authorization for an invasion. Powell presented evidence alleging that Iraq was actively producing chemical and biological weapons and had ties to al-Qaeda, claims that have since been widely discredited. As a follow-up to Powell’s presentation, the United States, United Kingdom, Poland, Italy, Australia, Denmark, Japan, and Spain proposed a UN Resolution authorizing the use of force in Iraq, but NATO members like Canada, France, and Germany, together with Russia, strongly urged continued diplomacy. Facing a losing vote as well as a likely veto from France and Russia, the U.S., UK, Spain, Poland, Denmark, Italy, Japan, and Australia eventually withdrew their resolution.[45][46]
U.S. President George Bush meets with his top advisors on March 19, 2003 just before the invasion begins.With the failure of its resolution, the U.S. and their supporters abandoned the Security Council procedures and decided to pursue the invasion without U.N. authorization, a decision of questionable legality under international law.[47] This decision was widely unpopular worldwide, and opposition to the invasion coalesced on February 15 in a worldwide anti-war protest that attracted big between six and ten million people in more than 800 cities, the largest such protest in human history according to the Guinness Book of World Records.[48]"
And I am laughing my ass off at this talk of slow dumb leftys lol.I don't resort to calling names ,you don't have to when you have an IQ over 85.
There are a few intelligent conservatives on the board but by and large I would stack up the other side intelligence wise any day of the week.And on calling some out as racists,religious nuts etc.,hey if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it just might be a duck.It doesn't take a rocket scientist to read between the lines and see the little code words some use over and over.Now you go ahead and argue that such people have the same level of intelligence ones who don't express such views do,IMO its clear they don't.
And lets talk about what Obama has ever accomplished,But before I do lets just start wth the obvious .That as soon as he opens his mouth you know he is a bright well educated articulate guy.He was able to from humble beginnings with his intelligence and hard work do the following ,again from wik.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obama
"Obama is the first African American to be nominated by a major political party for president. His acceptance speech was given on August 28, 2008 at the 2008 Democratic National Convention. A graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he served as president of the Harvard Law Review, Obama worked as a community organizer and practiced as a civil rights attorney before serving in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004. He taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004. Following an unsuccessful bid for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2000, he announced his campaign for the U.S. Senate in January 2003. After a primary victory in March 2004, Obama delivered the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July 2004. He was elected to the Senate in November 2004 with 70% of the vote."
Now is that less experience then McCain who has been in the senate for almost 30 years,sure is.If only experience mattered Mccain would be it,but it not just about experience its about who has the better ideas and is not seen as part of the group that got us into the big mess were in with the Iraq blinder and the collapsing financial system.And that if you don't know is the republicans who have been in charge for the last 8 years.McCain is doing his best to run away from Bush and the republican legacy but that is a really hard thing to sell when you are basically still proposing the same policys that have been in place .
And change is easy.Obama(any dem could have done these things) gets elected we can drop the cowboy bubba type international mentality and get back to some intelligent use of our resources and power in world.Raise the tax rate on the crowd over $200,000 back to the amount it was under Clinton ,give the rest of everybody else a cut.Most of the things Obama might do won't go nearly far enough IMO like hopefully slashing the hell out of the defense spending.It buys us almost nothing and that money could be much more well spent.I saw your post on how jobs are created by the defense budget and how there are threats out there.My response to that is that for the money spent it is way to costly and inefficent as a jobs program and that money could be much better spent on funding things like rebuilding our infrastruture(ya know the bridges and everything else that is falling apart) or even something new like a crash program to build nuclear and wind power sites which we need.And on threats I forsee no possibility of another country attacking the US.If they did they would be a parking lot in hours,thats all the defense we need ,the rest is just waste to make a few rich within the miltary-industrial establishment.Nuke force,small air force,small navy/mainly nuke subs and a few standing troops and we are covered.Get used to the idea because we won't be able to afford throwing 1/2 a trillion (and that don't even include the wars) a year down the unaccountable black hole of very wastefull defense spending much longer with the deficits and economy we have.
Oh and I have seen you criticize Obama for the comment on gas prices that he would have prefered a more gradual rise as though he should have said something like "Don't worry I promise a $1.00 a gallon gas if elected".Like the gas prices are something that a president or that even a single country even the United States can control really all that much,we and the world do get it at a better price btw due to people like our friends the Saudi sheiks,but here are limits to even that with the demand in the world growing and the supply not ever going to keep up,the age of cheap oil is over.Bush can do little short term and in the future the only answer is alternatives(nuclear,wind and some others to a lesser degree) and conservation.Nobody can do much short term and drilling is no answer since the US has so little of the worlds oil not to mention the problem of the enviorment and the use of fossil fuels/climate change (which even Palin now says is real,McCain made the extremist change her tune).
Ok is that enough of an answer from a dumb lefty ?:thefinger:rofl:
