OBAMA
by musicsuite
I really think the United States is headed for some very dire circumstances if Obama wins the presidency. He will probably be assasinated and we will have a huge racial mess on our hands. Why not leave well enough alone and vote for JOHN McCAIN, after all he is a true hero and American...
You're absolutely right.

I don't understand why McCain doesn't run on the "I won't get assassinated!" platform. Better than his current grumpy old man routine, for sure.
Why not vote for McCain?
by Texvol
Well, here are a few reasons:

1. I don't like him.
2. He is far too likely to get us involved in another war
3. He is emotionally unsuited to the job
4. He is too old for the job
5. He is reckless and erratic and always has been
6. His health care plan is the worst idea I have ever heard
7. He has no understanding whatsoever of economic issues
8. Obama is just as "American" as McCain is
9. His advisers are hacks and lobbyists
10. He has run the worst campaign in modern history, which doesn't bode well for his administration
11. He has shred whatever dignity and honor he may have had through his negative campaigning
12. Being a POW does not qualify you for the presidency
13. He has supported George Bush, whose policies have brought this country to its knees
14. The only way to get all of the Bush appointees out of government is to elect a Democrat
15. He seems ill and frail and Sarah Palin is a laughingstock
16. "Drill here! Drill now!" is not an energy policy
17. The bigots, racists, homophobes, fundamentalists and wingnuts all support him, which means I can't
18. He doesn't know how to use a computer
19. i don't want him to nominate anyone to the Supreme Court
20. I think Obama will be a great president

I could go on, but I think you get the point.

"Well enough alone"? Really? If this is your definition of well enough I shudder to think what your crisis looks like.

WOW! leave well enough alone. God forbid "That One" get into office and make things better. Hate to tell you this but every president has a chance of being assasinated someone tried to shoot Gerald Ford for godsakes. If that were to happen do think there would be a racial mess and not national grief. Yup when Kennedy was shot us crazy catholics went and caused a religious mess. Nice job of justifing racism you a--hole.

...at least if obama is assassinated, God forbid, Joe Biden is well capable of managing the country. However, if ancient John McCain were to meet his demise, would you consider Sarah Palin, "well enough?" From your previous statement, you probably would....

He's probably afraid Obama will respond with the "I never had skin cancer" platform.

Damn, is this race driving the GOPers completely over the edge or what?

Re: Why not vote for McCain?

I couldn't have said it better myself Texvol. I am getting so tired of the racism this country continues to have. I am a college student with three children and can't figure out why anyone would want to vote for McCain. This economy has destroyed so many lives and I'm sure McCain is only going to make it worse. All he can do is slam Obama when instead he should be telling us how he going to help us. He has all of these dumb women who are his trophy prize winners who may be beautiful, but don't have any sense. He is just like Bush; he cares only about how to make him and his rich friends richer and doesn't give a damn about us little people. McCain may have experience, but its his kind of experience that put us in the situation we're in. I don't know anyone who hasn't suffered from this hardship that he helped put us in. All of the businesses and factories are laying off or closing around my area (Ohio) and many of the houses in our town are up for forclosure. Why wouldn't anyone want to vote for someone who truely want to fix that.

It's been a long time since I've seen a politican show dignity, honesty, family values, and faith. WAIT... this is the first time I've ever seen that. Why wouldn't anyone want someone with values and faith to run our country. McCain doens't care about us, he cares about Bush!

It's so sad that people are looking at his skin color instead of seeing him as an American who cares. Yes, I believe in Obama and that his intentions are true. If someone wants to kill him, they are no better than those evil terrorist that want to kill us all. Obama stands his ground for what he believes in and all McCain can do is try to knock him down. Some role model he is. If our men have to risk their lives, I want them to be fighting someone who is a threat (Afganistan). Why are we not going after the terrorists. Bush and McCain only want to take over Iraq so they can take over their oil and get themselves richer. WHY NOT VOTE FOR OBAMA!

Presidents that are hated in Office never get assasinated(or attempted assasination). because it presents them as martars and gives them a hero status. Examples include W Bush, Clinton, Carter, Nixon, Johnson etc.

Therefore Obama wil not be assasinated, nor will have anybody attempt to assasinate him

Lots of people hated Lincoln. I seem to recall some people were so incensed at his election that they threatened to secede from the union.

So what your trying to say that Lincoln was wrong and Mcclelean should have been elected, where he wanted to pull all Union troops out of the south and allow the CSA to be their own country. How liberal

I believe like all Americans that Lincoln was our greatest president

Re: OBAMA
by Greatbear452
No, but you're obviously too stupid to understand what I did say, so it's back to ignoring you, idiot.
Re: OBAMA
by Actuality Ambassador
anger is a poor excuse understanding, fact is I know what you ment. Unfortunally you missunderstood my point. I was just trying to acomudate you with input that followed you last argument
Re: OBAMA
by Greatbear452
It's not anger. It's just that you're not worth my time.
