Vote for President

[DCGuy343]

What is the mood outside of the beltway here in DC?

Out of the reamining candidates who would you like to see win?

What is you spin on the race for the Presidency?

[CORVETTEDUDE]

Sorry peeps, but John McCain is the only one on that list with integrity, and the background to be "Commander in Chief" of this nations military.

[trish]

John McCain has integrity! That's a laugh. Just last summer he visited a market in Baghdad wearing a Kevlar vest and surrounded by security. He then lied directly into the cameras telling the world how safe it was there in Baghdad. He compared it to a outdoor farmer's market in the Midwest! All the while security was checking out everything that moved. The very next day the market was hit by terrorists and about a dozen Iraqi civilians died needlessly and more were painfully maimed. Why? Because John McCain had a fleeting political need to falsely advertise how well the war going in Iraq. Of course his actions only served to focus the violence of the insurgents on the very market he chose as his political backdrop. Did he later admit he was wrong about the safety of Baghdad market places? Did he later apologize for focusing if not catalyzing the violence that brought havoc to that market? No. He showed the same integrity that he showed when he joined the Keating Five in the biggest campaign finance scandal of the 80's; i.e. none.

Not to mention he is then only candidate to stick to his convictions since the pre 9-11 years. People like to write him off as a war monger, but he clearly expressed his doubts about entering Iraq before it happened (something hillary did NOT do although she claims otherwise). After America already entered the war, he had to change up plans due to different circumstances, and realizes that you cant just pull out of the war now. Anyone who believes any different is either naive or blinded by hope.

I understand Romney would not be a popular choice on these boards, but he was most likely the best option for turning the economy around. Ron Paul is a great candidate in these regards as well, I absolutely agree with this policies on the Fed. I dont necessarily agree that that Fed needs to be completely changed, considering that it was worked well in the past. The European Union has modeled its banking system around ours because it works. However, we definately need a new head.

I believe the economy is the most important problem we need to fix, even over the war. I understand that you will come in with arguments saying that we need to pull out and people are losing lives, not to mention the tremendous costs of the war, but the quicker we pull the economy around the quicker we can get out of debt. We are constantly borrowing from China at an incredibly high interest rate. Inflation is at an all time high, and when it comes time to paying them back, the real value of money we will have to pay them will greatly outweigh the nominal value that we borrowed currently.

The major problem with fixing the economy at this time, is that a large part revolves around lowering taxes which would increase the velocity of money as well as GDP. With the war now and its excessive costs, I don't see how we can depend on borrowing more money for the war; I don't think we can afford to lower taxes unfortunately.

At this point I like McCain and hate Clinton, who is the most dishonest candidate, as long as the biggest flip flopper.



ALSO: May I suggest people backing up their views instead of just voting? I think this does two things. One is that it shows that people actually know why they're voting for a candidate and not just blindly following a majority or a popular name. Also, it can generate a decent discussion and we can all come out learning something.

trish...because of his stature, security measures such as those are going to be taken, even if he's in your house. Get a grip!

[OEMEnemyNum1]

The McCain supporters are the most vocal here.

Seems to be that the people best suited to be president, don't want to be. lol

If it's Clinton vs. McCain, I'll take McCain (ABB Hillary). If it's Obama vs. McCain, I'll more than likely choose Obama.

oh so it's your contention that the market was perfectly safe... as safe as my own living room... and McCain's little show didn't endanger anyone, in spite of the fact that people died?

[dbev]

As far as I understand the situation, the only real new face is Obama.

Hillary could be seen a novelty, but she has that surname that tells people that, if she win, there could be 24 years of only two families guiding the US. Otherwise, a woman as a president is a good choice.

Edwards was the only candidate who didn't accept funding from the lobbies... and we know how he ended.

Republicans (conservatises) are not up to the task of understanding the modern world nor to shape a world where everybody is welcome and can live, and it's the same all over the world.

All I can say is Check My Sig....... I don't think it matters either way at this point. No ones gonna save the world.

Well, trish, that is not at all, what I was implying. However, if you so literally take the media slant, maybe you should get your butt over there and find out for yourself. I have 2 nephews there and a step daughter heading over. I myself served 2 tours in Nam, the raid on Tehran, Granada, Panama, Desert Shield and numerous operations I can't divluge. I know a leader when I see one.

What is your background, if I may ask?

I am for Obama for selfish reasons as he is out of my hood but even if he wins, the last 24 years will have been governed by Ivy League leadership.

Just something to chew on.

there's not a single refutation or rebuttal of any of my points in that post. whether you got family there or friends (and i have both) is irrelevant to question "was McCain just putting on a lying show?"

so we should take your word for it that you can recognize a leader. maybe so. but where is he going to lead us is the more important question. history is replete with leaders who took their nations and empires down the drain.

[saifan]

I went with Ron Paul who won't even be able to be a spoiler in this election. Unimpressed with just about everyone else Paul at least seems to have ideas about where we are going wrong, and where we have lost sight of what our founding fathers planned for this country.

And, I take it, you think the "Savior" of the American way, is in the group, save McCain? I didn't say he was perfect Trish, merely the most qualified. If you're looking for the one that's never told a lie...your search is far from over.

[trish]

you said he was the only one with integrity. a comment that i couldn't leave unchallenged. are you saying now that one can lie and keep their integrity?

[beany06795]

For Unity and hope - Obama
For Competency- Clinton
For Integrity - McCain

Perosnally, I'd if I had the vote. I'd go for Obama. The US more than ever needs a moral leader, an Abraham Lincoln or a FDR figure who can restore trust in the presidency. Failing, that McCain is someone who would think twice before committing your boys to a conflict based on false pretences. Clinton will do and say almost anything to get elected.

[CORVETTEDUDE]

you said he was the only one with integrity. a comment that i couldn't leave unchallenged. are you saying now that one can lie and keep their integrity?

I'm saying everyone has lied, at one level or another. That includes you and I. I don't believe in lies of varying shades of gray, but I also don't believe an indiviuals integrity and esprit de corps isn't defined by whether or not they have lied. Rather, the gravity and extint they may have done so, as well as other factors. I have every respect for you and believe you to have the utmost integrity, for I have no reason to question it, as I hope you do me.

You, obviously, must be guided by your particular set of principles, way your options and, make your best decision, given the information you have available to you. I am not attempting to sway your opinion, nor affect your decision. Consider all the information available, and not just what is available from the media. Feeling as strongly as you do about the statement McCain made, I suggest you question his motives by addressing him directly. Although the answer may not be directly from him, you will get an answer, and based on that response, then form you opinion. I know the man personally, and proudly say so.

With the ship of state foundering like the Titanic will a Paul (or possibly an Obama) be able to reverse the immense damage caused by the houses of Bush and Clinton? My guess is : "NO" The power brokers that profit from continual warfare are too firmly entrnched. The country is bankrupt. The powerful and a large part of the electorate are morally bereft. All we wait for now is the final dissolution of the US. It will be very painful for all involved.

[Realgirls4me]

Given the state of this country, particularly its gloomy future, how can anyone -- ANYONE -- sans the rabid far-right, who wouldn't switch their political positions and ideology even if Bill Clinton demonstrated to them in person that he could indeed walk on water, even consider voting Republican? Have you been asleep these past eight years? Jesus. Did you miss the moron-in-charge invade a country that had did nothing to us all the while damaging our credibility and reputation worldwide, adding to this country's debt, and killing tens of thousands of people (right to life?)? Did you read the moron's budget proposal? Do you expect this country to improve under another Republican? Really? Reagan gave us our present debt and this moron added to it and some of you want to continue the insanity? ... I don't know where to begin? Sheesh.

If I were a Republican I'd hide my head in shame at this juncture in history.

They're all the same: Appeal to the many ignorant, paranoid citizens among us on the safety and security front while coddling defense contractors, allow their rich friends to get richer, run roughshod over the concerns of our world allies, charge it all on one giant credit card to be paid for by future generations, and obviously just keep this country heading directly down the toilet. The scary part is that the lesser of the right-wings -- the Democrats -- allow it, and that they don't even try to hide their greed, hubris, and incompetence anymore. ...Patriotism? What's that?

Sure I've lied at "one level or another" and I take your word for it that you have too. But I haven't lied on a level that got dozens of other people killed. Nor have I signed legislation that got American soldiers killed by the thousands, caused a civil war and got Iraqi civilians murdered by the tens of thousands and then with deliberate intent lied for my own political benefit about the success of the policies implemented by that legislation. There are lies and then there are lies. Maybe you can lie and keep your integrity. But McCain's lies just don't fall into that category.

[chefmike]

CORVETTE, you know that I have a great deal of respect for you as a fellow vet and also a fellow sailor. Not to mention our mutual ties to the Old Dominion. I also have a great deal of respect for John McCain and his service and devotion to this country. But I gotta go with trish on this one, shipmate. McCain has really disappointed me in the last few years, although if he's elected I'll feel a lot more comfortable than I would have with Romney, and at the very least shrubya will finally be gone.

[CORVETTEDUDE]

I respect everyones opinion...I have mine and, I'm stickin' with it. I'm not votin' for some twit that is just gonna yank everybody out of Iraq, leave it vulnerable to infiltration by any and all terrorist organization on the planet and, disrespect the ultimate sacrifice of those fine Soldiers, Sailors and Marines killed and wounded there, as well as Afghanistan.
That solution is not an option.

This war is Iraq was a joke. I just wish people would come out and do what needs to be done...... Make Iraq the 51st State, and take all the oil. There I said it.

I think Iraq could be the worlds largest parking lot. If we just leveled it, it would be cheaper than invading.

Obama? I was an Edwards supporter, but Obama is my choice atm. although I like Hillary's health plan better.
Crazy John McCain? The wheels fell off the 'straight talk express' when he decided he would say anything to be President. Iraq for 100 years....Btw, he was the only senator to not show up for the economic stimulus package vote Wednesday and one vote decided it.
Huckelberry? He doesn't believe in evolution and thinks the planet is only 6000 years old. Need I say more?
Ron Paul? Nutjob...and still the best Republican in the race.

Top Cop Says McCain Was Never Tortured
Former Vietnam vet with top secret clearance - Republican frontrunner is "a lying skunk"
Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet
Thursday, February 7th, 2008


A former Vietnam veteran with top secret clearance says he has personally spoken to numerous POW's who dispute John McCain's claim that he refused to provide information after he was captured and tortured in Hanoi, saying that in fact McCain's code-name was "Songbird" because of his willingness to tell all to avoid torture.

Jack McLamb served nine years in secret operations in Cambodia and other nations before going on to become one of the most highly decorated police officer's in Phoenix history, winning police officer of the year twice before taking a role as a hostage negotiator for the FBI.

"I know a lot of Vietnam veterans and a few POW's and all the POW's that I've talked to over the years say that John McCain is a lying skunk," McLamb told the Alex Jones Show.




"He never was tortured - they were there in the camp with him and then when he came in....he immediately started spilling his guts about everything because he didn't want to get tortured," said McLamb, contradicting the official story that McCain only offered his name, rank, serial number, and date of birth.

"The Vietnamese Communists called him the Songbird, that's his code name, Songbird McCain, because he just came into the camp singing and telling them everything they wanted to know," said McLamb.

McLamb said the POW's told him that McCain had sustained two broken arms and a leg injury from not pulling his arms in when he bailed out of his A-4 Skyhawk that was shot down over the Truc Bach Lake in Hanoi.

The POW's said that McCain made 32 propaganda videos for the communist North Vietnamese in which he denounced America for what they were doing in Vietnam.

"They have these sealed now, our government has these sealed, we can't get to it, they have it classified," said McLamb, adding that in truth "the POW's hate John McCain."

It is commonly accepted that McCain was treated better than other POW's and afforded medical care immediately after the North Vietnamese discovered that his father was a top admiral.

Several Vietnam veterans groups do solely exist to expose McCain's abandonment of veteran's interests as well as his lies about being tortured, including Vietnam Veterans Against John McCain and U.S. Veteran Dispatch.

Doubts over McCain's alleged war hero status and his support to curtail efforts to look for missing POW's contributed to torpedoing his presidential campaign in 2000 and those same questions will undoubtedly surface again should the Senator win the Republican nomination.

Obama? I was an Edwards supporter, but Obama is my choice atm. although I like Hillary's health plan better.


If any American actually believes there will be a viable universal health plan anytime in the next 4-8 years is sadly fooling themselves.

The country is so far in debt that there is ZERO chance that all these hollow campaign promises of a health plan will ever add up to anything more than just what they are...bullshit lies to sucker your vote.

Consider the billions of dollars we pour into Iraq. Consider the loss of American lives. Consider the diminution of our military even here at home where the National Guard can no longer adequately respond to disasters. Consider our plummeting reputation and influence and around the world. By invading Iraq without provocation or reason and remaining there (on the excuse that we’re spreading democracy) we have and are causing ourselves more damage than any al Qaeda fanatic could’ve dreamed of causing. It’s impossible to get out too soon. It’s time to relearn the lesson that democracy is not peanut-butter and it can’t be spread over the world with a butter-knife.

"The Trilateral Commission is intended to be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the United States. The Trilateral Commission represents a skillful, coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four centers of power political, monetary, intellectual and ecclesiastical. What the Trilateral Commission intends is to create a worldwide economic power superior to the political governments of the nationstates involved.

Isn't Hillary's stance that we have to wait until March (Texas and Ohio) for her next victories starting to sound like Rudy's desperate rant about Florida when his candidacy was sinking into oblivion during the early primaries?

If Barack is ahead in pledged delegates when all the primaries are done, I don't see how these so-called "superdelegates" will overturn the decision of the real voters. Especially if the polls continue to show Barack is stronger head to head vs McCain in the general. If Barack is denied, Hillary and Bill will look like they stole the nomination with some backroom trickery.

McCain wants to keep the Haliburton meal deal going. Hey McCain, what's wrong with nuking the enemy and getting the "war" over? It's not really a war it's like having a hornets nest in my backyard. You don't go to war with hornets, you simply spray them and exterminate them.

Hey McCain, McCain-Finegold is an attack on the first amendment. You even filed a brief against a pro-life group to keep them from being able to campaign against the pro-death (aka pro-abortion) morons. So much for being pro-life. You are only pro-McCain.


Hey McCain the people will build a fence to keep illegals out of our America. You are on the wrong side of history and fence - move to Mexico dude!

Hey McCain, the government should not spend tax money on stem cell research. Private companies can do this just fine by themselves.

Hey McCain, you will appoint judges to the supreme court who will side with McCain-Finegold, which is the same kind of judge who will side with Ruth (Buzy) Ginsburg. Conservatives get nothing from you being elected. You are a liberal.


Hillary and Obama are cut from the same cloth - communism.

Huckabee is another evangelical idiot like Bush. We don't need illegals in America. We need to turn off the entitlement programs in America. If America was like it was in 1930 then a lot of people who get a check from the government would either get a job or die. Social programs are nothing but pyramid schemes.
The only thing Huckabee has going for him is his anti-gay position. He understands the difference between a lifestyle and a hobby. But being an evangelical do-gooder he lacks the guts to take the necessary steps to stop the gay mafia.


Ron Paul is on the right side of God, guns and gays. He would end foreign aid period! No more American money going to foreigners who are jealous of America and no more American money being funneled into the hands of muslem scum. No more American money fighting AIDS in Africa. American needs to let the death rate in the rest of the world over take their birth rate thus helping to solve the hate America problem.


Yes, it does look like four years of Obama. The good thing is the Republican party will hopefully learn a good lesson (as in Ned Beatty in Deliverance) and no longer try to keep conservatives on the "plantation" like the Democrats have done with blacks for years. Hillary may steal the nomination at the convention, which will lead to riots just like 1968.

Don’t be an idiot, that’s what the war in Iraq was all about. We invaded a secular nation that was anti-taliban and anti-al-Qaeda at Haliburton’s bidding. It was all about transferring money from government coffers to Haliburton. Of course we’re not going to nuke the future Haliburtonstan.



You even filed a brief against a pro-life group

Please don’t tell me Mr. Nukem is pro-life!!!


…move to Mexico dude

Good idea, q1a2z3, do it.


Ron Paul is on the right side of God, guns and gays.

If you haven’t heard the GOOD NEWS, God made a NEW COVENANT. GAYS ARE IN, GUNS ARE OUT. It’s call the NEW TESTEMENT.


no more American money being funneled into the hands of muslem scum.

Oh. If you haven’t heard, God made an even newer covenant. It’s called the QUR’AN. If you haven’t converted, there’s no room in heaven for you.


No more American money fighting AIDS in Africa.

If you do that, you might also want to quarantine all future flights and trade with Africa. Gotta keep those new mutations of the virus out of American soil you know…even if it would conflict with the freedom to travel that American’s currently enjoy.


American needs to let the death rate in the rest of the world over take their birth rate thus helping to solve the hate America problem.

Or Americans like you could just stop being so hateful.

[q1a2z3]

Bush was stupid for invading Iraq. This is obvious. He should have nuked saudi arabia , mecca and afghanistan.


The QUR’AN is the book of a false prophet and a false god. islam is a cult. allah is the moon god of the bedouin tribes.

Christ came to fulfill the law not to destroy it so the sodomites are still back at square one.

Turning off the AIDS money does not mean Americans can't travel to other countries - but they might want to keep tabs on where their offices are and possibly what's in them.


Hateful? I'm tired of these nut job fringe groups who are screwing up my country with their hate. They hate the unborn, they hate Christians, they hate marriage - defined by God, they hate the fact they are not normal and want everyone else to be as screwed up as they are. They barge into churches and parade around like they are on drugs in the middle of a service - that's a good example of hate. They hate God being taught in the classroom. They hate "mom" and "dad" being used in school because their poor adopted children have a picture of two moms or two dads and turkey baster on the mantel. This hate on the part of the fringe for the majority will most likely lead to the next civil war.

And you realize that most Christians consider sex with a t-girl to be gay sex, ri-i-ight?

Face it, you're a closet case with a fetish, and you probably hate yourself. Have a nice day, moron!

[trish]

Hateful?

Yes, this


Bush...should have nuked saudi arabia , mecca and afghanistan.

among other things, is hateful.


QUR’AN is the book of a false prophet and a false god.

and how would you know? Are you one of those nuts with a direct line to almighty? You just know somehow? It's in the Bible? But it's also in the Qur'an? You better watch out. What makes you think you can speak for God? You're gonna wind up in Hell you pathetic little winkie whacker. The very fact that you're so stupid, malicious and morally deficient is a good indication God hasn't been speaking to you lately.


I'm tired of these nut job fringe groups who are screwing up my country with their hate.

Finally we agree on something. I'm fucking tired of Neo-cons and fundamentalist christians perverting the democratic enlightenment ideals upon which this country is founded and without which it will flounder.

Sounds like wishful thinking on your part, pilgrim. I'd be willing to bet that 'The Turner Diaries' is a favorite book of yours.

You and me both.

Actually you and me and a lot of other citizens who are going to make sure that we don't have another repug prez for a good long time!

[hippifried]

Are you one of those nuts with a direct line to almighty?
Anyone can get to the direct line. Just dial ecum spiri two two oh.

wow!! great argument. i never thought of that before. i'm thoroughly convinced. convinced republicans still don't know how to think past their gut feelings. After umpteen stumbles McCain still doesn't know the difference between Shia and Sunni. He wants to continue the Bush policy in Iraq which is bleeding us dry (figuratively and literally).
