I'm sure in some areas a KKK member running for President could get big crowds doesn't mean he's winning an election. Obama was about bringing new people to his side. Palin was just preaching to the choir. How you can see the election results and not clearly see that is beyond me. If Palin was so good at getting crowds how comes she LOST?

So basically, your saying you would rather have your hand held than told the truth? And such is the rest of America... and you say who is stupid? Sour grapes by me? Don't think so. McCain/Palin was not my choice... nothing to be sour about today. And I do actually believe the US Economy is fundamentally sound. That was one of the only things mccain said that I agree with.

First of all you are putting ME into this. I'm not telling you what I want to hear I'm telling you what PEOPLE want to hear. And yes people rather be lied too. Or to put it more correctly people rather be told that what they believe to be true is actually true. Don't ever run for office because you will never get elected telling people things are in their head and they are wrong. In the end they are right because without their support you're not getting elected. That's just the way it is. To deny otherwise is being obtuse and foolish.

Do you think they WANT things to go bad? Or just know that they will?

well I like to see some of this proof that thing will go bad because of Obama. Then I would like the Powerball numbers for tonight.

I fail at politics? I guess that's your poli-sci degree speaking... so I'll let it go at that.

I'll be 40 next month my first election I voted in was 1988. I was paying attention to politics long before that. You were probably in diapers then.

WRONG
Quote:
The last true conservative who ran for president carried about 80% of the national vote.

Which election was that. I couldn't find any links to that. Reagan got 60% in 1984, but that's not 80%

As for Jesus freaks... I'm not sure what that rant has to do with anything other than, Jesus Freaks have a right to vote for their values just as much as you do.

They have a right to mind their own fucking business. See I have no problem with the Amish. They are hard core for Jesus because they leave everyone alone to live their own lives. They do not try to control mine.

As for the private school issue - you are right. And that is what most all of them would do if they could get the school vouchers they have been lobbying for for most of the last decade.
|
Why should they get a voucher? My TAX dollar should not be used for RELIGIOUS purposes. If parents are so concerned for their kids souls they'd get a 2nd job to put their kids in private school. If the private school is so worried abut kids souls they LOWER their tuition. In the end they care more about money like everyone else. Vouchers are bullshit. besides I though republcians are against government handouts? Typcial hypocritical republican BS. No wonder I left the party.
