They are voting for war and they don't give a damn about the consequences and they re too ignorant and stupid to examine what their candidates are really about.
No, they are not Nazis, Nazis had a better sense of style and more coherent arguments - not that there was anything good about that.
True believers and Kool Aid drinkers are pretty much the same, willing to be led into the unthinkable and the horrific - like the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. How many dead? One million, two million? These people don't care.
Tell me they are better than "good germans" in the 1930s.
Nader will not be president so speculations are a waste of time, but there would not be war and there would not be a wholesale redistribution of the nation's wealth to the ultra rich. You want the war and your money to go to the rich. Go ahead and flush the country down the drain.
In three years you will deny voting for him.
I bet the writer at Salon have invested in the war industry. Except for Paglia who remains a human being. Kaufman probably is just into sports.
What anti-war rallies did he speak at?
Why did he vote to continue funding the war?
Why does he want to escalate the war in Afghanistan?
Why does he want to invade Pakistan?
Why do he and Biden blame Russia for the Georgian mess which his foreign policy advisor along with Israel set up in order to provoke Russia, destabilize the region and form a northern front against Iran?
Why does he have a foreign policy advisor who co-founded "Al Qaeda" under Jimmy Carter and who wants to restart the cold war?
We know all of this before the election. We didn't know about the plans to invade Iran and Afghanistan that both Gore and Bush knew about before the 2000 election.
You and yours do not want to know and do not care.
I bet you don't even know the name of Obama's foreign policy advisor.
His economic advisor is Skull and Bones - that's Kerry and Bush's Yale pirate club.
All you need to see is that smile.
What are you concerned about the truth for?
Shouldn't you be smearing Palin?
McCain - "who is the real Barack Obama?"
It sounded like a man's voice said "terrorist" to me. I was trying to hear "kill him" but I heard "terrorist".
What makes more sense in response to McCain's question of "who is the real Barack Obama" - labeling him a terrorist or calling for his death. Now if McCain had said, "What should we do about Barack Obama?" you might have a case, but he didn't and there is no case.
You are hearing what you want to hear and the information is lost in the shouts of the crowd so you really don't have anything but what you make of a phrase which has an indeterminate consonant at the beginning and end and is covered in a wash of crowd noise. The audio is a some of everyone who was making noise and that can distort things quite a bit.
As for the Palin rally, what is more likely, that someone is shouting "PALIN" or "KILL HIM"?
"PALIN! PALIN! PALIN!"
or
"KILL HIM! KILL HIM KILL HIM!"
From twenty feet away in a crowd of noisy people do you really think you could tell the difference? If you do, there is something wrong with you.
M and N at the end of a word sound very much alike.
How many of you actually know the words to popular songs just from listening to them without making significant errors? Seeing the lyrics on paper doesn't count. If people heard all the words correctly you wouldn't need lyric sheets.
Have you ever had to ask someone to repeat what they said because you didn't hear it well enough to be sure of what they said?
This whole thing is a smear and dirty politics against the republicans - not that there is anything wrong with that - especially at Salon.
This is BS and the SS know it.
I am quite certain that I have more experience with the subject than you do at least when it comes to adults.
Children should not be mutilated to assign gender. When they hit puberty they may well change their mind. A large percentage of people change gender roles and play often during their life. Too many people are sold on the idea that you have to be one way or the other and blending or mixing is consider treason to your particular labeled "type" - people are not "types" they are people and should be free to engage in whatever makes them happy.
But cutting off a child's penis is not that type of thing. Sex play is for adults and a child wanting something like this is a clear indication that they have been abused, programmed or traumatized.
Children are not for sex.
I like watermelon, ribs and chicken and i resent being associated with Barack Obama.
Besides, I thought black people only liked to eat at Mickey D's!
A picture of Obama eating a Big Mac, now that would be truly racially insensitive!
These republicans are too stupid to even make good racists.
What's wrong with using the picture of Obama enjoying a Kool cigarette? Why haven't they used that?
I don't think the republicans want to win this election at all.
Maybe they are not so stupid after all.
The Secret Service are professional, well educated, dedicated and good looking. Your slander is vile and obscene. Kennedy insisted on riding with the top down against their advice. I have had quite a few run ins with them and they are simply the best police force I have ever encountered.
You should see their shoes!
