uncool2pillow Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I'm going to have a hearty laugh when Gingrich runs away with this whole race as a write-in candidate. GO NEWT!!!1!1!!I wish he weren't so sleazy. I like his progressive-conservative outlook. Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I should probably just go ahead and start another thread for this, but... My parents are in their late 60s. When they were learning to write, left-handedness was simply not an option (my mom would have been left-handed if left to her own devices; she writes right, but can do perfect cursive mirror-writing with her left hand, which probably would have gotten her burnt at the stake a few hundred years ago). So I guess my question is, is there any way of knowing if any earlier presidents would have been lefties if they were learning to write today? Not that it matters, I'm just tossing it around, late on a Friday afternoon... Also, why wasn't Garfield burnt at the stake? What's the deal there? I've been told more than once that was a myth - I wonder what the truth is. They told you it was because that was considered to be deviating from the norm and/or it was seen as something to do with communism - or some other reason? Link to post Share on other sites

quarter23cd Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I saw Hoskins, a hard core republican running for MO State Rep sitting there with his family. Wilco and republicans in bars just don't mix well in my book.Alcohol: America's best chance at reconciliation. The next time I hear somebody talk about reaching across the aisle, I hope it is because they are a handing somebody a frosty mug. This is the America I believe in. Link to post Share on other sites
sweetheart-mine Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 with that robo call i've concluded that the mccain/palin campaign has completely lost it. couldn't believe my ears, what is this, new-joe-mccarthy time? i was so disgusted by it last night that i couldn't read this board or anything else about the election. idiots do exist who will buy the repulsive crap in that call, but at this point there are probably very few of them who haven't already decided that obama is sub-human. so to gain a very few votes that probably won't help him, mccain has in my opinion reached down to a new low and sealed his legacy as the filthiest and stupidest presidential campaigner in modern times. one of our two republican u.s. senators from maine, susan collins, actually contacted the mccain campaign and told them to stop making that robo call in our state, as she told the press yesterday. she thought it was bizarre and inappropriate, to put it mildly. three stars for senator collins.

Party @ the Moontower Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 So Fox News and their entorage have confirmed that liberals are in fact, anti-American. Obama and Biden are our leaders.

I don't think they put them up there anyhow. If there was a silly "McCain is a racist" poster I would take that down as well. You removed hate, thanks. There is difference between that shit and a pro-McCain sign. McCain should have picked you for VP. We need VC in government. If we had government behind VC then perhaps we could paid for each post..or something. Link to post Share on other sites

lost highway Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 From Fivethiryeight.com: "So a canvasser goes to a woman's door in Washington, Pennsylvania. Knocks. Woman answers. Knocker asks who she's planning to vote for. She isn't sure, has to ask her husband who she's voting for. Husband is off in another room watching some game. Canvasser hears him yell back, "We're votin' for the n***er!" Woman turns back to canvasser, and says brightly and matter of factly: "We're voting for the n***er." " Link to post Share on other sites
austrya Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 When I was out last night I drove past a yard with a bunch of the McCain/Palin signs. The stupid thing is that they painted over McCain's name so the signs all just said Palin. Do these people really want a Palin presidency? Who can possibly want that?

The stupid thing is that they painted over McCain's name so the signs all just said Palin. Do these people really want a Palin presidency? Who can possibly want that?Heh. Palin was selected as veep for one reason--it pisses off the left. That's it. Nobody has any delusions about her qualifications. The people with the Palin signs up mostly want to see her win because liberals will disembowel themselves in disgust (figuratively, I hope). I honestly think the GOP only put her there because they can. Because they can do something this ridiculous and have a half-decent shot of getting away with it. For everybody who has bemoaned 8 years of Bush and thought the end was in sight--here comes a giant Alaska sized middle finger for ya. It might not work. There's a good chance this ticket could fail because of her. But if it doesn't...if they somehow win, the howling from the left will only be matched in intensity by the laughter on the right.
