I hope McCain wins.

Yea... he is just a Muslin sympothizer.

I hope McCain wins, if for no other reason than that he is of a different party than that which dominates Congress, in order to have some gridlock.

With Obama being a socialist and his persuasive skills, and a Democratically controlled Congress, there will be little to stop a socialist revolution in this country. You better hope McCain wins or there will be no turning back in our lifetimes. If Obama wins, you might as well kiss pretty much everything the Ron Paul Revolution wanted to achieve goodbye forever.

ON THE CONTRARY! If the Republicans win the Democrats will continue to be seen as a true opposition party, funneling all dissatisfied voters to the left, as opposed to seeing the cause of liberty as their best hope.

My view is that the human being makes decisions based on two fundamental factors: Their ability to maximize their power and influence, and the potential to have their specific interests met. People move to major parties because they are the most powerful, and they feel that the sacrifice of personal views is an acceptable compromise. Our job is to ask people to give up on the illusion of power with the majority parties, help them see its a failed compromise and that the best hope is to work towards empowering these views that we support.

LOL.

EndtheFed got confused. He meant to say that Obama is a Muslim, and the white sheet he wears over his head is muslin.

A night of cross burning is hard work, and he doesn't want a hood and robes that are scratchy, so only the finest muslin sheets will do...

Well, here's some things to think about.

Ladies and gentlemen meet Congresswoman Carolyn McCarthy. Like most congresscritters, she's an idiot. However, this one is a special kind of idiot. Why is she a special kind of idiot? Because on 2/13/2007 this particular idiot decided to stand in front of congress and introduce H.R. 1022: Assault Weapons Ban and Law Enforcement Protection Act of 2007 which already has 67 cosponsors.

This is a vile piece of legislation designed with one purpose and one purpose only. To disarm the populace. To make any weapon with any significant power unlawful for any law abiding citizen to own. Basically, once this bill passes, the only legal weapon will be a .22 caliber handgun so long as the magazine contains less than 11 rounds. This is the bill that will disarm the populace, an act which will solidify this nation's path to tyranny. Bigger and bolder than Clinton's Assault Weapons Ban, this ban makes nearly all hunting rifles and shotguns illegal, with the only 'grandfathered' weapons being those that were also grandfathered under the original Clinton ban. That means you'll be forced to destroy or turn in any weapon that falls under this ban and was manufactured before the original ban's enactment.

That's right, this piece of legislation will ask Americans to 'hand them in' or face prosecution. This bill was introduced in February 2007, and sent to committee in March of '07. Why is it still in committee? Because even if it passes the house and senate, Bush will veto it. The gun grabbers know they only need to wait until after the election to send this clearly unconstitutional ban on it's way.

Some might say that District of Columbia V. Heller made this type of draconian ban unconstitutional. I will remind those people that the Supreme Court determines the constitutionality of legislation. D.C. V. Heller was decided on a 5 to 4 margin. That means 4 justices were towing their party line, or serving an interest other than the constitution, rather than voting on the constitutionality of the ban. If the justices were being impartial, and interpreting the constitution, then the vote would have been 9-0 with no questions asked and no eyebrows raised.

So, I have to look at two facts: This gun ban will be forced out of committee under the next administration. Many more gun bans like this one will be authored under the next administration. The next administration will likely appoint 2 to 4 justices to the bench. Who can I trust more to appoint constitutional justices while vetoing this type of legislation? I don't trust either of them completely, but I trust McCain more than Obama, that's for sure. McCain, with a democratic congress and ailing economy, could be a 4 year stopgap. While those of us outside politics in usual continue to build momentum.

See, thats the kind of BS that loses votes for McCain, at least among educated people like myself.

That crap might fly if you are talking to some low IQ type who is just looking for an excuse not to vote for the black guy, but it turns off decent people who don't wear white sheets over their heads- and the more Palin, the 527's and the right wing blogs try spreading this stuff, the further Obama pulls ahead.

If you are as educated as you say you are, then I would assume you would do your research before you go making the assumption that someone gets their info from Palin, the 527's or the right wing blogs and I would also think that before you accuse people of wearing white sheets over their heads you would do a little more research of your own.

I'm not voting for Barack because he promotes and will implement socialist ideas. It has NOTHING to do with him being black.

Frankly, the more I hear this nonsense, the more I think of voting for Obama out of SPITE- just to piss off the ignorant assholes (you know who you are) who peddle this stuff.

Hmmm, for someone with as high an IQ as you, I would think that you would be able to make rational decisions based on intulectual reasoning[/] rather than deciding based on having a rediculouis emotional response.

BTW, genius, "muslin" is a cotton fabric. A Muslim is a follower of Islam.

yea.. i know that .. I hit the wrong key and then cut and pasted it but if it makes you feel far superior to me, and you need that to prop up your ego the enjoy the moment.

Exactly... The supreme court is my biggest issue this election.

 

[anotherone]

"lesser of two evils trap"...

Hmm sounds like the "RP forums collectivism" trap. There are evils in this world and there are lesser of two evils.

In this election McCain OR Obama WILL BE ELECTED. Obama is a socialist. McCain will be better for the supreme court nominees. There IS a lesser of two evils. Especially in the swing states.

ugh. The neocons always pull out this argument when they get really desperate. I really hope the Repubs hit the shitter. I'm *not* forgiving them for their reception of Ron Paul. The "Red Staters" have had their minds turned to putty by W, and McCain loves war even more. We've got to rebuild, and that means the house has to burn.

I am not a neocon... I am bringing it up because it is TRUE but you can't see it through your RP collectivism...

If socialism is in place by then... ther will be no rebiulding it... it wiil then be time for the pitchforks and tourches... ( by then our guns will be gone)

 

[Pauls' Revere]

Believe it or not each of us votes each and every day. The FRN's we carry around are actually "votes" economically speaking in that we as individuals and collectively as a nation vote that is spend on what we decide is important to our values, morals, issues, judgements, etc...what you spend on is what you deem important enough to use your worth toward.

I try to practice this each day and every day and put it toward good use.

Scare tactics work on most "conversatives" but they don't work on people around here. Scare tactics were used to get us into Iraq. They were used to pass the bailout. They are used for *everything.*

I've had enough Chicken Little. We've got a 2nd Amendment which has survived for centuries. We're supposed to vote for a prick because we're supposed to be afraid our guns will be confiscated?!

I just laugh man. You've got to try a little harder to scare me.

Yea... it survived by one supreme court vote in the DC vote..

you want 2 to 4 obama justices... yea.. then we will see how long 2nd amendment lasts..

I must say, I'm savoring the desperation from Red Stater Repubs with arguments like this and other stupid scare tactics in the retarded emails I receive. I'm savoring this desperation like a fine wine.

Do you know why I don't like McCain? He is a pro-big-government, pro-war and looks out for the interests of big-business over the citizens (I'm talking about his voting record, not his speeches). Besides, he got a C+ voting record record from the NRA. How can pro-liberty voters go along with that?

This is payback for ignoring Ron Paul. Most Repubs *still* don't understand what is wrong with the country, and 8 years of McCain/Palin will just further the mis-education.

[nodope0695]

I think McCain blew it by voting for the bailout bill.

if he would have voted against it, and Obama still voted for it, I personally believe that Obama would be plummeting in the polls and McCain would be rocketing up...'course, when they both do the same thing, they're both back to square one.

that said, they both suck IMHO...they won't do anything to fix the problems we're experiencing.

I'd say McShame blew it when he picked Sara Palin as his running mate....talk about stupid moves.

Also, I'll bet anybody $10 that should McPalin win, he'll be dead within a year, two on the outside, and you know who will take over....thats fuckin' scary.

 

[NewEnd]

McCain needs to lose.

Its the only chance we have of saving the Republican Party.

If McCain wins, it just encourages the neocons to keep doing what they've been doing.

The Republicans need to hit rock bottom before they will change, and an EPIC FAIL by McCain is the only way that will happen.

I look forward to McCain getting crushed on election day!

This. We told them so. they scoffed. Now its time to watch them get their asses kicked. In the face of a giant socialist gun grabbing war mongering civil rights stomping beast, maybe, finally, the republican party will come around BACK to it's core principles. The Bush idiots are, well, idiots, and will do whatever they are told, as long as its against them damn libruls. IF McCain wins, they will pat themselves on the back, and tell themselves they were right all along. If he loses, the neocon agenda will lose credibility as viable.

McCain was the jackass that called Ron Paul, and anybody else that doesn't toe the neocon agenda a Nazi appeaser.

P.S. conservative judges are assholes. They always support the police, always give the police more power, always are sympathetic to the executive, and have time and time again have shown absolute disdain for civil rights, especially when it comes to the 4th amendment. If the 4th were rocksolid, you could own grenade launchers, and there wouldn't be a damn thing anybody could do about it, if you stored and kept them responsibly.

And I am writing in Ron Paul. That's all there is to it.

 

[DamianTV]

A puppet on strings is still a puppet.

I dont really think it makes any difference who wins. Our votes dont even matter. Those that vote has no real power. He who counts the votes has ALL the power in the world.

Besides, we already know McCain is gonna win. /cry (not that it makes any difference)
