be here at about 11:26 PM and bring some snacks.

Bob: No shiat.

The sad thing is, that there are idiots who are eating this up with a spoon.

But, folks need to posture during and election year, and look like they're doing something. When they're not doing jack or shiat.

But, let's settle in to hear from the peanut gallery about all the wonderful plans that we SHOULD have done.

It's funny, that so few of them include condemning Georgia from using a ceasefire to pull in tanks and artillery...

hubiestubert: The sad thing is, that there are idiots who are eating this up with a spoon.

This.

Why no. No you could not.

I hope Barr gets the chance to be in at least one debate with Obama and McCain

I hope Barr gets a large number of votes. I want Obama to win, but I would really like to see the LP take over as one of the two major parties, instead of the current crop of repubs (and yes, I know about Barr's past. I'm saying this while assuming his current positions are true to how he would govern).

And he's absolutely right about this

And he's absolutely right about this

The problem is that Barr can be right on an issue or two, and to be honest, I think that Ron Paul brings some issues to the table with him as well--but taken as a whole, there's some wingnuttiness.

No candidate is perfect though. There are certainly issues that I don't agree with Obama--FISA and a few others--but I think he's the best over all candidate for the country.

Though I still wish that McCain hadn't gotten all goofy and windsocky. I would gladly vote for 2000 McCain--but now he's turned into Bizarro McCain who has pretty much given up any of the issues that I liked about the man. Which says something about his character there, considering what a hard spin he's made. He doesn't flip or flop, but just keeps oriented with whatever way the wind is blowing, and pretends that no one is going to notice the shift...

And that he doesn't even acknowledge the shift in position is what bothers me. It's like he figures no one is going to notice. That he doesn't respect the voter or the public enough to pay attention. He doesn't respect the voter, and wants to treat them like they were slightly retarded children, fine, but I'm not voting for a leader who doesn't respect the electorate.

I Said: but I would really like to see the LP take over as one of the two major parties, instead of the current crop of repubs

That's not setting the bar very high. I'd rather see dam near any party take over for the current crop of GOPers. And that includes the American Nazi Party. At least they'd have no shot at winning.

So you want it to be your party or nothing at all huh? How noble of you.

dumm

Yeah Bob, but simplistic works with Republican voters...

If he didn't want his party to win, he wouldn't be in that party. Or he'd be Joe Lieberman.

How about actually voting for the person instead of the letter next to the name? It's a lot better policy than voting straight party.

DamnYankees: Why no. No you could not.

Well...he could have said, "RUSSIANS BAD! MCCAIN SMASH!"

MyRandomName: It's a lot better policy than voting straight party.

So you'll be voting Republican, then?

MyRandomName: It's a lot better policy than voting straight party.

It's certainly a more noble sentiment, but how much can a single person do in office? Not much- every elected official operates as an arm of their party. If they didn't, their party wouldn't support them.

No matter what motivates you at the polls, you vote for an R or a D or something else, but not for a single person.

MyRandomName: It's a lot better policy than voting straight party.

So vote Republican?

You are absolutely correct. It just so happens though, that parties were created as a categorical grouping of people with the same values and policy interests, so it is very possible that a consistent party voting record is voting for your preferred policy. I mean, sometimes. Neither major party covers all my policy interests, but you can get close.

Lando Lincoln: DamnYankees: Why no. No you could not.

Well...he could have said, "RUSSIANS BAD! MCCAIN SMASH!"

Then we'd get to see news reports about how arrogant and elitist Obama is because he uses three word sentences. Not like that Maverick McCain!

And he's absolutely right about this

I too would like to see the LP take over for the GOP. It would force the Democrats to get back to their fundamental roots. America and the whole world would be better off if the GOP just imploded on its cognitive dissonance.

MyRandomName: So you want it to be your party or nothing at all huh? How noble of you.

I want "not the GOP" right now.

noobcake: MyRandomName: It's a lot better policy than voting straight party.

So vote Republican?

No. Republican sex scandal = affair with man.

Democratic sex scandal = affair with woman

Kohl: If he didn't want his party to win, he wouldn't be in that party. Or he'd be Joe Lieberman.

I want the dems to win now, but know full well that if/when they do (especially if they win BIG as is likely) in short time they will do what the repubs did and become massively corrupt.

That being the case, I want a second party that has completely different ideas there to balance everything out. So if the dems swing to far in one direction, the LP would be there to pull them back.

Currently, the dems have ideas and plans, but I think it's only because their time as the whipping boys (2000-2006) allowed them a lot of freedom to stray from the center and try new things in terms of policy. As they regain lost power and then some they will (and have been) move further from "we think this is right" and towards "we think this will give us money/power".

So for that reason, I want a solid 2nd party to provide a balance. I think, given the options, the LP is a perfect choice.

mccain. Fearmonger. Hothead. Unknowledgeable about the economy. Doesn't make friends easy. Threatens the ones he has. deserter of his handicap 1st wife. Says he speaks for all of America without even being elected yet.


Oh yeah, he is on georgia's payroll, via the lobbyist on his staff.

I hope my Blessed U.S. of A see through this feeble of a man's charades.

Hope.

That long wordy post I put up could have been avoided had I seen this first. So:

THIS.

hubiestubert: And that he doesn't even acknowledge the shift in position is what bothers me.

Not only does he not acknowledge it, he actually tries to pretend that he's still 2000 "Maverick" McCain.

Some people actually buy it.

Fox running eight-year-old footage of him doesn't hurt.

Oh, in addition to singing a beach boys song now and again, remember, he calls his lovely wife a Ho.

Nice job, old man.

Yes you could. Just ask the imbecile currently in the white house.

Mr. McCain,

I am an American. I am not a Georgian. I am not an Iraqi, either. My empathy for foreigners is not dependent on their strategic energy assets.

Lou.

Loucifer: Mr. McCain,

I am an American. I am not a Georgian. I am not an Iraqi, either. My empathy for foreigners is not dependent on their strategic energy assets.

Lou.

Then what does it rely on? Morals? Dirty hippy.

Loucifer: Mr. McCain,

I am an American. I am not a Georgian. I am not an Iraqi, either. My empathy for foreigners is not dependent on their strategic energy assets.

Lou.

WIN

That some nice political criticism Lou

I see a lot of people post this picture in Bob Barr threads, and I don't know what it alludes to.

Is it suppose to mean that Barr is a shill for the Republican party?

Barr is right about this. Too bad the MSM won't report it.

I spent the better part of my scholarly childhood reading Kipling and Dr. Seuss thank you very much. =(

Well of course, Bob Barr knows about how to deal with Georgia. He was their senator, you know.

What's that? Georgia became their own country? Learn something new every day.

Do an image search of "Babar"

hubiestubert: But, folks need to posture during and election year, and look like they're doing something. When they're not doing jack or shiat.

Yeah... kinda like Bob Barr... who was either doing this when he played the role of a far right wingnut Republican, or is doing this now in his breakout role as a relatively moderate Libertarian.

AR55: Is it suppose to mean that Barr is a shill for the Republican party?

Here's what you're missing.

Ron PaulBob Barr: The choice of the FARK Independent^TM.

/Ron PaulBob Barr.

IlGreven: Ron PaulBob Barr: The choice of the FARK IndependentTM.

/Ron PaulBob Barr.

Fark Independents^tm are voting for McCain because of the (R) next to his name, plain and simple. They just repeatedly claim they "have no horse in this race".

We are all Georgians now?

Nope, on your own there Jonny...... Maybe he identifies with war criminals, and thus feels Georgian.....

So what y'all saying is if I see a fine female over the age of 18 with a Babar shirt on, I should propose to her on the spot cause Im probably never going to find a woman more politically aware and clever?

Or not ;-)

hubiestubert: The problem is that Barr can be right on an issue or two, and to be honest, I think that Ron Paul brings some issues to the table with him as well--but taken as a whole, there's some wingnuttiness.

Whether Ron Paul is wingnutty or not, you have to appreciate Ron Paul's continuing ability to get Ron Paul mentioned in threads that have little or nothing to do with Ron Paul. Ron Paul remains Ron Paul, no matter how much you Ron Paul or don't Ron Paul, even if the Ron Paul of the current Ron Paul isn't Ron Paul at all. Ron Paul Ron Paul, provided Ron Paul Ron Paul Ron Paul (Ron Paul), unless Ron Paul Ron Paul Ron Paul with Ron Paul. Ron Paul Ron Paul? Ron Paul! RON PAUL!

/Da doo Ron Ron Ron, da doo Ron Paul
//RON PAUL!!!
