    Do you even understand what a post of off topic is? I am not disagreeing with your statement about the unborn, but it's not the topic of this thread.

    If you would like to talk about the pictures you have posted why don't you start a thread instead of posting the same post over and over again in different threads?

    Now, back to the topic....

    I don't believe McCain disrepected Obama any more than any other politican running for office did or would.

    Channel 5 (Nashville) has on their news @6 and 10 commercial a montage of clips from news they've covered, and right there, from the debate, the hand shake, that suposedly never happened.

    Some people are delusional and don't deal in reality. When people are proven to be wrong and they still spout out the stuff that they have created...I call that poison. The intent is to make you become just as delusional as they are....I refuse to be poisoned.

    McCain went over and shook Obama's hand immediately after the debate. But is that good enough for the delusioned? NO! They refuse to even ACKNOWLEDGE that because it's the antidote to their poison that they want to spread around.

    The fact is that the Obama supporters don't have ANYTHING negative on McCain so some of them are creating things.

    It goes beyond being delusional:


    Break their back, crush their spirits

    See, here's the deal -- we're going to win the White House, we're going to win big in the Senate, and we're going to rack up big gains in the House. Republicans know this and are preparing for the worst. Now think of 2004 -- we really thought Kerry was going to pull it off. Remember that? And remember how utterly devastated we were when Bush pulled it off? The pain was so much worse because we expected to win.

    So with conservatives bracing for the worse, they won't experience the kind of pain we did. Not unless we deliver a defeat even worse than their worst nightmares. And I'll be honest with you -- I want them to hurt as much as we did. I want their spirits crushed, their backs broken.

    So the way we do that is we deliver a defeat worse than they ever imagined. We do that by winning states that have no business turning Blue -- like North Carolina, Georgia, Indiana, and so on -- states that were easy Bush victories in 2004. We do that by electing a 60-seat supermajority in the Senate. We do that by defeating their leadership, like Mitch McConnell in the Senate. We do that by defeating their heroes, like wingnut go-to hero John Shadegg. We do that by making sure a record number of Americans reject conservative ideology, leaving it utterly discredited.

    The day after the election, I want to see an electoral battlefield littered with defeated Republicans, their ranks demoralized, their treasury in heavy debt, and no real leadership to take the helm. I want a vacuum so complete, that a bloody leadership battle between the neocons, theocons, and corporate cons shakes the GOP to its core, and leaves it fractured and ill-equipped to stymie the progressive agenda, much less ramp up for an even bleaker (for them) 2010.

    Guys, that's why I don't worry about complacency. We're not out to win this thing. We're out to crush them. And that's going to require a level of engagement beyond anything you've ever done before. It'll mean more phone banking, more canvassing, more donating. Work on this site keeps me from working the phones or walking precincts (my wife has helped out on those fronts), but I've surrendered a significant portion of my income, way more than my family can really afford, on behalf of the cause. We've all got something to offer, whether it's time or money, and now's the time to offer what we can.

    One of my favorite cyclists likes to say, "Leave everything on the road", meaning that when he crosses the finish line, he will have burned every last ounce of energy in his body. If he falls short? No regrets because he gave it his all, every last bit of it.

    We can't have regrets on Election Night, thinking that some Democrats came up short because we failed to leave everything on the road. We can't have a Jim Martin or a Bob Lord or a Darcy Burner or whoever come inches from victory, knowing that maybe we could've done just a little bit more to help them cross the finish line victorious. Even if all you can give is $5 to one candidate, or one afternoon phone banking, it still matters. There's a lot of us, and a lot of little gestures adds up to a whole lot of action.

    We are approaching a historic night, and one that can radically transform the direction of our country.

    If one has to lie to promote their candidate then they should be ashamed to have him as their candidate. :tear:
