Robert Williams Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I'll be glad when this is over so we can find out if this country's going to get 4 lashes with the cane (McCain) or 10 lashes. Getting caned isn't anything to look forward to, but at least our sentence will be passed and we can grit our teeth and deal with the outcome. I've never been less enthusiastic about a presidential election in my lifetime. That these two candidates are the best we could offer up has me rethinking my belief that a vote for an independent is a wasted vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnmagician Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I find it funny that EVERY Republican who dislikes McCain finds it necessary to slam Obama too. I'd doubt most who make the statements about "BOTH choices" have ever pulled the lever for a Dem. but saying it makes them feel less traitorous to their beloved party.

Robert Williams Posted November 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 It's not necessary to slam Obama. He's just so much more malignant than McCain that one has to mention that the vote for McCain is just an unpleasant form of chemotherapy to try to put the cancer into remission. It's not about slamming Obama. It's making sure that people understand you know that chemotherapy, unpleasant as it may be, still beats the hell out of full blown cancer.

fishnmagician Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 It's not necessary to slam Obama. He's just so much more malignant than McCain classic. but I will your honesty, most Republicans here have refused to admit that the ONLY reason they will vote McCain is because of an irrational hatred of Obama. you seem to be embracing it.

Robert Williams Posted November 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I don't hate Obama. I do, however, have a very rational hatred for socialism/communism. It sucks the life out of a society and it's citizens and it saddens me that so many here just don't see the problem with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that you understand what communism is..... otherwise you wouldn't try to tie Obama to it. I also think you don't understand what socialism is.... because we've had socialist institutions in America almost since it's inception. on a final thought, I do feel empathy for you and others. people who's identity is TIGHTLY alligned to a political party. the GOP had ALL the power in the US for a number of years, and they failed MISERABLY. it's gotta hurt. once you guys touted yourselves as the Party of ideas, but when it became clear your ideas sucked, you have been reduced to just hate and fear.

Lagerhead Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I also think you don't understand what socialism is.... because we've had socialist institutions in America almost since it's inception. . Nice argument.... 'we've had socialism for years, so why not?' Also Magish, you are always trying to play the hate card. I love when we make way past the breakwater at first light and head out, there's nothing better, the whole rest of the world just melts away for me.
