Well, I think last night's debate put the final nail in the coffin for the McCain campaign and his "faith"ful band of bible waving religicans.
It's not all John McCain's fault. He actually has some respectable qualities. Although no one could ever have enough good qualities to overcome the stigma of the Bush administration and it's indefensible tenure (or "eighture", man just think if we still had 2 more years to go with that moron) of failed politics, poor judgement and its cloak of secrecy. It would take a miracle (and I don't believe in them) for a Republican to win this election after the last 8 years.
What is John McCain's fault? Picking that absolute nutjob Sarah Palin for a running mate. Wow, what a bad move that was. If you equate it to a chess move, as in reality it was, Bobby Fisher just rolled over in his grave. It's like having over sized ears and punching Mike Tyson in the face. It's like a straight man saying he's not jealous of Hugh Hefner and so on and so on, you get the point.
It's about damn time we had a minority in office. I'm tired of the era of gun toting, mud tire having hillbilly knuckleheads living in a pre-civil war mindset. They say he ain't no American. Well, in fact he is. And to add misery to that untruth, soon in this country minorities will become the majority, so stick that between your cheek and gum and suck it! Let's keep this pot melting!
I'm not going to tell you that Obama is perfect. Neither is he. I feel that the backbone of a good president is someone who listens to opposing arguments on both side of the aisle all the time and make sound judgments based on TRULY credible information from experts in their field. Or, another way of explaining my point would be to think of how the Bush administration makes decisions and it's the opposite. No one person can have all the right answers to running a country at the tip of their tongue, the best we can hope for is someone that can make sound informed decisions, and if the decision turns out wrong, admit it and try to solve the problem again. I know this is a foreign concept to Republicans, because for the last 8 years, the president hasn't admitted any bad decisions, so why would Republicans think that admitting they were wrong is an option.
The LAST thing I want in a president is someone that will inject and infect our government with any religion. Religion has easily been the number one source of conflict throughout the world in the past Milena. Followers of every religion think they are the ones that are right. How can this be? I think religion should go far, and the sooner it gets going, the better.

How did I RAISE SUCH AN INTELLIGENT, GOOD LOOKING SON. Must have had a father with good genes. Dad
One thing is missing from this blog. A "Baby Alert" section. All is well here. I assume you are busy since you have not been by for a while. Did Dave's roof get finished? Dad
The Republican newspaper, the Chicago Tribune just endorsed Obama for President. I'm not the only former Republican upset with the last 8 years. Uncle Chuck
Bush actually delegated quite a bit. I don't think he knew how to form his own opinion or policy if you will. I don't think he could even start to form his own. Thus you had Rove, Rummy, Cheney and a few yes men (Condi) bringing up the rear. Reagan actually did much of the same, but he had the ability to lead and build a good team.
I wouldn't worry about the right wing christianity hijackers. The real Jesus wouldn't push you around. Don't let right wing sexually repressed, uber conservative asshats forever form your opinion about chrisianity. Jesus would have told most Republicans to act more like democrats (minus abottion).
I for one think the only real solution to the next hundred years is to be realistic and cut entitlements loose. They aren't funded anyway and it's only going to get worse. I would gladly waive my rights to medicaid and SSI if we could actually remain solvent as a country. My house owes 485,000 to unfuded entitlements and I vote to say screw em! If we don't vote them away, they will go away none the less in a matter of time.
Stick that in your cane and smoke it! (While you've got it)

What are your thoughts on " Joe, the Plumber " ? Uncle Chuck
Uncle Chuck can't view the vote results. Can anyone else? I tried Firefox and Internet Explorer browsers.
How come McCain knows so much about "Joe the Plumber" when he never met him? More lies. Obama was the one who talke to him. Hawkeye 1
Joe the Plumber told Obama that under the Obama plan he (Joe) would be taxed more than under McCain's plan, ecause Obama would tax any business making 250K a year or more. Obama's response was (and I paraphrase- I don't know the exact words), "This tax is so the ones behind you get their fare share; spread the wealth around a bit."
A lot has been said about JtP and the man actually has been operating without a license (which he has hastened now to get) and is currently making about 40K a year. He would like to buy the business, currently consisting of 2 people. I don't know if it's realistic for him to expect he'd make over 250K per year but after his national exposure, Joe W. should use his 15 min. to his advantage. Might land him some business.
It proves to me Obama doesn't always think on his feet when searching for something politically expedient to say.
I do think the mutual roast the other night was funny on both of their parts.
Sarah's going to be on SNL tonight with Tina so that oughta be funny.
Ditto the Jesus comments from Dave. Jesus did not want to take down Rome or prop up Rome. Substitute the USA for Rome and that's probably what you'd have today. He loved and healed individual people, Romans and Jews and Greeks (the ethnic groups of the day and place) and anyone else. So let's just say he loves and heals Republicans, Democrats, independents, and others.
PS I'm an indepdendent. I won't jump into any of those other boxes.

Currently the vote sits at:
3 for Obama, 0 for all the rest. It's hard to see the numbers in the results, but they are there. it's a bad color scheme and I can't change it. Sorry.
Okay, so I can change it. I'm new at this so I played around with my colors. Happy Haloween!
Can I stuff the ballot box? We need a voting controversy. If you click to vote again there is a link to see the results, I can see them.
