Thanks for the Endorsement, Dick (Part II)

If you have to take a test to get a driver's license, don't you think you would have to take a test to show you have some basic knowledge of what you are voting for?

Who is your Congressman / Congresswoman?

Who are the Presidential Candiates running mates?

Who are your US Senators?

4 our of 10 Register voters can't answer the above questions.

Some even thought Sarah Palin was Obama's running mate.

Ignorant masses believe propaganda....

McCain is using the exact same Karl Rove smear and fear tactics Bush and Cheney did.

We all hoped there would be a difference but there is none. McCain is in the gutter with the same Bush/Cheney advisers and strategists.

Bush/Cheney’s sleazy tactics = McCain's sleazy tactics.

This is not change. This is more of the same slimy politics.

The electorate will rightfully boot the Republicans out of the White House.

No more sleazy politics. Boot the Republicans out of the White House!

Funny how the GOP'ers take everything out of context to suit their own purpose.

I want you to argue with them, get in their face"

Right, "O" said that. How many acolytes haven taken him up on that is hard to say. Perhaps I am being pollyana-ish, but I think it is a very small, but vocal minority. i hope so anyway.

I am still stunned that a man who is a media creation (and it continues with being on the cover of the current GQ magazine) and has the most leftist voting record in the Senate (which he served in for less than a half year before starting his run for president) may be ruling this country in a few months. Meanwhile a man like John McCain (check out his amazing bio folks) would lose to him. I wouldn't believe it if it were a book or movie, but here it may come to be.

But this thing isn't over yet, so lets not get ahead of ourselves. Any web seach on President Dewey would tell you that.

The entire quote:

"I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face," he said.

"And if they tell you that, 'Well, we're not sure where he stands on guns.' I want you to say, 'He believes in the Second Amendment.' If they tell you, 'Well, he's going to raise your taxes,' you say, 'No, he's not, he's going lower them.' You are my ambassadors. You guys are the ones who can make the case."

Please don't post my private address and phone number. I don't want my family threatened or attacked for not being a disciple.

Look you jackass I was not the one that posted that! Which part of that didn't you understand the first two times? Besides Jackass from Ohio wouldn't be listed.

I am looking for that quote but I have to sift through the right wing bs to find it.

I want you to argue with them, get in their face"

That's what he said. And that's what you people are doing by intimidating and threatening people on this board.

That is only part of what he said. I am looking for the entire quote not for the snippet you posted.

Great ad.
It couldn't be clearer that a vote for McCain is a vote for the country to remain on the same downhill course with Bush's disastrous economic and military policies left intact.

It's also not right to accuse someone of posting that information that didn't post it. I think you owe me an apology.

I want you to confront and get in their faces" He ordered his disciples.

Too bad your quote is not what he said.

tim,
i support obama, because he is the opposit of bush/cheney.
since mccain said he agreed with bush ninety percent of the time.
and mccain has not told me exactly how he would put policies into place or govern different from bush, i will assume he still supports what bush has done. and i don't want. that.
obama has talked about ways to help the middle class-which is the real driving wheel of this country. we the middle class people of this country are the engine that run this country.
plus dare i say, the history making aspect of this election.
bush is a republican.
mccain is a republican
i think the world sees the wrong that has happened to this country, as the republicans fault.
I truly believe we would have been electing a democrat for president anyway this time around.
for it to be obama-really does sent a good and positive message to the rest of the world, that inspite of what has happened over the last eight years.
bush and his republican are NOT represenative of what the american people want.
the world will see us as at least trying to get back on the right track.
for all of the people who are against obama, and as you keep saying 'on the left" obama will have to gov. from the center. and he is a smart guy, and i do think he has a nature of wanting to be fair. (unlike what i think of bush/cheney and mccain with their my way or the highway kind of attitude)
if obama means to do half of what he has campaigned on, our country will get back up on it's feet again. and our allies will see us as serious players again.
and i hope you are fairminded enough, to admit, the tone of obama/biden rallys are of a lot nicer tone than the mccain/palin rallies.
I have been ashamed to watch some of the mccain/palin rallys. I have always seen cindy mccain as a refined woman,
and what has been happening at their rallys-i would like to believe the circle of people they run in, and the mccain are above what we see and hear at their rallys. but the more we go on.
the more i chalk it up to mccain will endure even debasing himself and his family to win.
Iwill still hold on to my belief that the Mccain' are upstanding people of refinement, but they just want to win.
and that will bring a lot of people down.
I sometimes imagine mccain at night when the light are out saying to his wife. "I hate we have had to do some of the things we have had to be a part of doing, but we need to win."
as i have said
I want to believe the mccain' are better
and above what they have had to do to try and win.

paul new man...

ok, i see your point. and i want to get out of there as quickly as possible too. and by pulling out ASAP, i dont mean obama will pull out all the troops at once, but he is going to do what he wants, as quickly as his advisors tell him to do it. that means, worrying more about getting out than the effect of doing so. i just dont agree with the timetable thing either, but force does have to be on the iraqi government, definately.

cheer up...

i apologize. usually people just get a question like that, and leave.. lol im a slow typer as well. well, you still didnt really answer my question!!! first off, im not "pro mccain". it truly is a lesser of two evils for me. and its not just mccain or obama. i just believe that the democratic party is slowly being taken over by extremists. obama, pelosi, reid, frank, dodd, etc., etc. this is the reality. 9 percent approval rating in congress?? seriously?! the democrats have not come up with ONE solid idea in congress in two years. now again, im not saying the republicans did a great job either. im an independant. i dont support one party or the other. but the democrats just have alot worse ideas in general, on every topic, in my opinion. but i have to ask my original question again: why do youthink obama is the guy to turn this around?! all you said is "I just think obama will at least try to do what he has said all through out his campaign, unite this country, and try to repair our standing in the world, which is important to me". you have to have reasons other than that. i realize you probably lean to the left, which is ok, but what makes you believe him?

Tim,

I don't think we should "just pull out" and I don't believe for a minute that Obama would do that either.

Pressure has to be put on the Iraqi government to take over military responsibilities and involve all parties in the political process.

A timetable has to be setup for handing over the responsibilities to Iraq, including providing defense and basic services to their people.

Actually, the Iraqi government has requested the US to establish a timetable. The Bush government has resisted this and McCain chastised Obama as being naïve and unpatriotic for suggesting this.

McCain wants to win, win, win this war.

tim,
i am old, and i type slow.
plus i am watching cbs sunday morning

As if presiding over 8 years which included ignoring warnings about Osama bin Laden which led to 9/11, starting a war for no reason (and still not capturing bin Laden), a huge deficit, a tanking economy, etc., etc., Bush is now attempting to finish the fabulous job he has been doing as a "steward of the environment" by deregulating/rolling back every environmental protection he can get his hands on before he leaves office in order to benefit his big corporation BFFs. Heads up, polar bears.
8 YEARS OF THIS CRAP IS ENOUGH. YOU GUYS HAVE HAD YOUR CHANCE, THIS COUNTRY CAN'T TAKE ANYMORE OF YOUR "STEWARDSHIP" -- OUR TURN NOW.

tim,
the last i heard from many of the people we have to listen to as the experts-our military is just about,strapped. and i assure you, mccain way of getting his victory, from what he is saying, will sooner bring the idea to an all vol. mil. to a halt.
we will have no other choice.
and by the way, i sit in the middle.
i think the rep. brand is so tarnished, if by some miracle mccain did win, noone believes his victory in iraq will not mean more dead.
I don't think anyone thinks (world leaders, allies) think diplomacy would be one of mccain' strong points.
so in that respect, we can expect more of the same. if not worse.
and since you are so for mccain and think his way is the way for this country to go. before the draft goes into effect, god bless you and the many of you who will vol. to help mccain achieve his victory.
I just think obama will at least try to do what he has said all through out his campaign, unite this country, and try to repair our standing in the world, which is important to me. and i don't hear mccain saying anything like that.
what i hear from mccain, is divide us more.
our country needs to rise again.
mccain will not do that. he has not even suggested that.

still no response from "cheer up" on why he supports obama??!! gee, i didnt expect that... lol

Endorsement from Cheney! LOL
McSame says stick a fork in me.. 'cause I'm officially done. LOL

paul newman...

i see what you're saying, but you think we should just pull out of there ASAP???!!! i realize alot of people think we are wasting alot of money in iraq, money that we could be using here at home, but just pulling out would be more irresponsible than going in there in the first place. see what i mean? every decision has consequences. obama and all those on the left can talk all day about it being the wrong thing to invade in the first place, but you have to realize its going to do just as much harm to the innocent lives if we just pull out. we can learn to cut spending in MANY other areas than just the war. im not saying we should be there forever either, but you think the worl hates us now for going into iraq, just wait till your canidate just starts pulling troops out because he didnt think it was a good idea in the first place.
