Guest Jules Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Once again, there really wasn't a 'discussion' here anyway. My morning started with another questioning of how I can live with myself after voting for Bush. It's ridiculous and fun, but it's been done. I'm fine with my decision, and that's that. Let's move on if possible. Link to post Share on other sites
bobbob1313 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 So calling someone a euphemism for a penis isn't using profanity? It's a nice escape route. If two people are being assholes (As FHF and I clearly are), and only one of them is using profanity, then the one who isn't can easily take a moral high ground and say "Look at his words! They mean the same as mine but have a negative connotation!" Link to post Share on other sites
Spawn's dad Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Do not be assholes to those you consider assholes, lest we all become a bag of used, dumb assholes. thanks, man. I'm glad you're on the clock Link to post Share on other sites

Tweedling Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Anyone else hear that Obama wasn't really born in the US? Forged birth certificate? Man I've been hearing alot of shit lately.... Link to post Share on other sites

caliber66 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Anyone else hear that Obama wasn't really born in the US?Funny, I know for a fact that John Sidney McCain III was born outside of the United States. Link to post Share on other sites
MrRain422 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 There was some internet buffoonery about Obama's birth a few months back, and the state of Hawaii released a copy of his birth certificate so that "controversy" has already been diffused. But yeah, McCain was born in Panama and I guess there is some ambiguity about his eligibility based on some confusing wording in the Constitution. But I think pretty much everyone agrees that the Founders did not intend to exclude children of soldiers born on military bases outside of the U.S. from the Presidency (they actually probably didn't consider the possibility that the U.S. would have military bases on foreign soil, but had they anticipated that, they no doubt would not have excluded those soldiers children from being able to be president). It's an interesting Constitutional question I guess, but not one that I would really expect to go anywhere. Link to post Share on other sites

Just found it a tiny bit ironic. Link to post Share on other sites
MrRain422 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 For sure. Agreed on that. To be honest, I'm not even sure who gets to make that decision if someone wanted to challenge McCain's eligibility, or even who would be the one to challenge it. I mean, it is something that would have to go through the courts I guess, but who would have standing to file a suit like that? The attorney general? I honestly don't know.

Duck-Billed Catechist Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 I dunno, Bobs, I kinda agree with FHF here. The whole "fake birth certificate" thing seems to be along the lines of keep saying it and some people will start to think it's true and/or not remember if it's true.
