Your a demorat. McCain 2008!
Obama scandals on the way through the press he will be toast against McCain!
I understand why you prefer OBAMA and the DEMs. You think conservatism is better off as a minority/obstructer. It’s easier and more reliable than actually having power and leading. I get it. Go OBAMA!
I note that this sentence is missing any comparison to its object. It is a deliberate omission, therefore you are without integrity. Allow me to complete it:
I understand why you prefer OBAMA and the DEMs. You think conservatism is better off as a minority/obstructer than being undermined, defunded, and have conservative candidates replaced with their enemies, big-spending corporate crooks that gave Republicans the bad name that cost them their swing support in 2006.
There, fixed it.
It’s easier and more reliable than actually having power and leading. I get it.
Apparently you don't. Conservatives won't have power under McCain. His buddies Ted Kennedy and Rich Feingold will. McCain will appoint liberals in charge of the GOP, thus depriving conservatives of ANY voice. The candidate farm system will be purged of support for conservatives, thus depriving us of future candidates for higher office.
This is exactly what was done in California. Conservatives are worse off under Arnold than they ever were under Gray Davis.
Go OBAMA!
This kind of posting is beneath contempt and earns you nothing but animosity for you and your position.
You are wrong. It is not about “preffering” anyone. It is simply that Juan does not DESERVE either our VOTES or the PRESIDENCY.
Yes it is. It' McCain or it's the DEM. I've had it explained to me why we are actually better off with the DEM winning. And I've had it explained that it is therefore wise to help McCain lose. Well, my friend, logic dictates that in a race between McCain and Obama, if you want McCain to lose, then you want Obama to win, because that's the only way it's gonna happen. So to root for McCain's defeat is to root for Obama's victory. It's ok. It's been explained to me that that's the better option.
Juan does not DESERVE either our VOTES or the PRESIDENCY.
As Clint Eastwood(Will Money) said in Unforgiven, "Deserve's got nothin' to do with it."
There, fixed it.
That's perfectly fine with me. I wasn't omitting anything. What am I going to do? Conceal your rationale from yourself? Get hold of sanity! I understand your rationale for preferring Obama and the Dems this year. If you feel more comfortable restating that rationale, it doesn't bother me and doesn't change my point: you prefer Obama and the DEMs this year.
This kind of posting [Go Obama!]is beneath contempt and earns you nothing but animosity for you and your position.
You obviously are very uncomfortable and sensitive about your position. If you want McCain to lose, you want Obama to win. Inescapable. I don't know why you have a problem with that.
You have this need to put words in people's mouths in order to have an argument. Here is the definition of "want" from Dictionary.com
2. to wish, need, crave, demand, or desire (often fol. by an infinitive): I want to see you. She wants to be notified.
3. to be without or be deficient in: to want judgment; to want knowledge.
4. to fall short by (a specified amount): The sum collected wants but a few dollars of the desired amount.
5. to require or need: The house wants painting.
I dealt with this idiotic 'if you don't want candidate A then you must want candidate B' argument when Arnold was elected. I guess you'll just have to learn your lesson the hard way.
I don’t live in a gated community either and I talk to the real people..one thing I have observed is that most black Americans do not want amnesty and are sick of the illegals and see them as a threat to their standard of living. Notice when Obama gave his speach last night he received a tepid response (even some booing?) when he mentioned illegals and amnesty..I think his backers will put enough pressure on him not to go with amnesty while Mc CcCain will go full steam ahead, damn the torpedoes...with amnesty..
I said you want Obama to WIN. You just explained to me why we're better off that way. You are sure uptight about it, though.
