    Then you can't read.



    Whatever. You CAN be as convicted as me.



    I hope people follow your example. I hope next election, you will vote for the pro-life candidate, even if you have to write him/her in.

    I think Bush has been a disappointment even to many of his former supporters. Was he all bad? Of course not. But in my opinion, he is the worst President since Tyler. Is Obama the panacea for all that ails our country? Nope. But I have high hopes that he has the vision and leadership ability to put us back on track. I won't agree with all he does, but I am willing to give him a fair chance...the same chance that I gave Bush before his misguided policies ran us into a ditch. Like I have said before, we are always no more than four years from making a change if we feel it is needed.

    I want Obama to succeed. I hope he is so successful that I'm elbowing people out of the way to vote for him in 4 years.

    But given his actions, his cabinet choices, and policy switches, I am extremely pessimistic.

    On this, Curtis, we are in complete agreement.

    You see, THIS is why we can have a debate without throwing names around. I know where you stand, but I also know you're not so closed minded as to think that ONLY "their" guy could have saved us..

    I wish more people where like yourself and could swing either way depending on the person rather than the party...

    He's a socialist.

    There's not much a socialist can do that will make capitalists and independent Americans happy.

    There were "critics" and there were, and still are, "haters".

    I believe you know the difference. :thumbs:

    He should honor him.

    The weaknesses of his opponent made his election a lot easier.

    Of course it does.

    Despite your protestations, I've known the truth about your political leanings for a long, long time.

    Does that mean you don't have one? Scripture is the only thing I know that can get dragged through garbage and clean the garbage...

    In all fairness, they would have also complained if McCain had been elected since they just called him Obama's brother. Or would they???

    Can you show us where I advocated me killing babies in the womb? You guys believe in guilt by association and if that's true you believe we can see Russia from Palin's front porch AND that is foreign policy experience. Now Bro Curtis, I would never take you to a level that low because I know better.

    I don't think anyone can be as convicted as you... The problem is it's self-conviction which like self-righteousness is just that, SELF....

    The fact that he has already set in motion to repeal the Bush ban on Federal funding of abortions tells me that Barak Hussein Obama is a failure and is not even out of the blocks yet. Which will mean that the money the Fed confiscates, by taxation, the earnings of my hard work to support my family, will go to kill babies. Yep, a total and complete failure.

    Your vote, and that of the many that voted out of lust for their pocketbook, is what drove him into office. In every crime there is the driver. The driver does not enter the bank but the crime can not be made without him. The driver is just as guilty even though he never set foot in the bank.

    Yes, guilt by association in both cases.

    Will you get off that tired old rhetoric already? She proved quite the opposite.

    But in this case I am neither the driver or the robber... Just one of many who put gas in the car. I am not guilty by association unless you decide to make me so...

    You approved him with your vote. Deny it all you want, it don't change the fact.
