It's Obama/Biden!

duckfan78,

Don't waste your fingertips. Some people's sole purpose in life is to come to the DIS and . Then scream "personal attack, personal attack." Kind of the equivalent of "He hit me back first..."

No actually I really do want someone to explain how McCain's voting with Bush 77% - 95% of the time is not Bush clone.

Hmmm, who said I was talking about you?

Someone needs a hug....

I'm completely confused now where you're coming from. So will you go to Canada if Obama is elected, or McCain?? I thought you had indicated you'd leave if McCain became President, but it's Obama who you seem most upset with.

I was not the PP that talked about moving to Canada. I didn't say ANYTHING about moving anywhere or who I would vote for. I just responded to a PP that insinuated that Americans should be proud of their country and not talk about leaving because their candidate did not get elected. I stated that the elected POTUS should be proud as well. Then I did go on to state my concerns about Obama. TRUST me I will vote for McCAIN (shoot, I would vote for my dog, my mother-in-law or crazy Tom Cruise before I would vote for someone like Obama) But that is just me.

I just thought of this, but its like the old saying goes I guess....

You're right. I apologize.

 

[Charade]

Sure I can dispute it: Obama wasn't there to vote or not vote with Carter. Any conclusions you've come to are not based on what happened because it never happened.

He wasn't there to vote on the Iraqi war either but it was one of the hardest things he didn't do.

No Prob!

Folks in case you haven't figured it out, in the bizarre reality of this poster, every Republican is a Bush clone. Debate her all you want but just like handing a one-eyed man a pair of binoculars, no matter what you do or say she's still only gonna be able to see one side.

Actually, what most folks have already figured out is that you can't to be independent of someone when you vote with them 77% - 95% of the time.

Doesn't stop some folks from trying, though.

I believe the point has been made and the horse is officially dead. Ciao.

And you seriously can't explain how a man who votes with Bush 77% - 95% of the times is NOT a Bush clone.

However, here's what did happen: McCain votes with Bush 77% - 95% of the time. Go ahead: dispute those numbers.

Let's put it a little differently. If you had a dog you loved and had it cloned, would getting it 77-95% of the original give you the same dog? It may have the head of a lion, but the body of the dog.

Agreeing with Bush 77-95% of the time makes you an independant minded Republican. 15-20% more than that and it makes you Joe Lieberman.

I know Oabam was not in office during the Carter administration, however, if you look at them both, you will see that they would agree to most of the same policies and would vote pretty much the same way as one another.

so therefor, you can't dispute that Obama is a Carter Clone.

Actually, I think you both have this wrong.

Carter was a horrible president who happened to be Democratic.
Bush is even a worse president who happens to be Republican.

Since Bush's incompetence exceeds even the uselessness of Carter, it is fair to refer to Bush as the Republican Carter.

Now, it may be true that if you supplied Obama with a time machine, he would use it to go back in time to support Carter. But since time machines don't exist, that remains a theory and only a theory.

But Obama requires no time machine to make his feelings known about the Republican Carter. The Republican Carter is still in power. So while we'll never know how much support Obama would have given the Democrat Carter, we can know with certainty he does not support the Republican Carter.

But what about McCain? We can theorize that McCain would have given little support to the Democrat Carter. But without that time machine we can never know for absolute certain.

But we know McCain is quite supportive of the Republican Carter. Thus it is fair to assume that if he attains the Presidency, McCain will become the new Republican Carter. Or if you want to shorten it, McCain will be the new Carter.

So if you liked Carter, make sure to vote for McCain.

I cannot agree that Bush is "incompetent". I think that was just an act. Rather, I think Bush deliberately intended to do what he did -- he didn't intend the results most of us consider as negative, but nor did he care about them. They weren't the point of his efforts. Just my guess though, but assuming that's the case, saying one is like the other is like saying that chocolate is like the color blue.

But what about McCain? We can theorize that McCain would have given little support to the Democrat Carter. But without that time machine we can never know for absolute certain. But we know McCain is quite supportive of the [Bush].

And quite un-supportive, as well. He's just about the best Republican out there in that respect. There is no reason to think his intentions are nefarious, until we see him start making decisions that belie his objection to the Republican base which he's objected to consistently up to now.

His VP pick will be the first big test of whether he's going to remain true to his centrist perspective or kowtow to the reactionaries.

I have to disagree and say that there is no way you can say Carter was better than Bush, asbolutely none. Carter only made one term, so you have to figure, at least half of Bush's presidency, which was equal to Carters entire service, was better if he was voted back into office again.

As for the Obama/Carter connection, If you look at both of their core Liberal Values, and their Ideas on foreign policy, they look strikingly similar.

I'm a McCain supporter, but couldn't help thinking that there was something wrong with this ticket. Finally, this morning I saw some newscaster refer to the 'Joebama' ticket and instantly knew. The ticket is upside down. It's like the tail wagging the dog.

Hey====Jobama was my word!!!!I should sue!

So am I....

Ok, seriously? I know you may not have time to read this entire thread but please at least read the page you posted on. The very first post at the top of the page you posted on shows how the first confused person got me confused with someone else. Again, I did NOT mention anything about moving to another country, voting for McCain, or which party I subscribe to. All I did in any post was point out all the facts that terrify me about Barack Obama that keep me from even being able to view him as a viable candidate. Read everything I actually typed. Sorry if I sound snarky but I didn't come on here trying to get people to vote republican or whining about wanting to leave this country if I don't get my way. Those posts did not come from me. ALL I posted about was the fact that Obama consorts with and is mentored by known racist radicals and has repeatedly displayed public disrespect for the country he wants to lead and that THAT scares me wittless.

OK Seriously??? I am still not sure if I get your problem with me(and I did read the thread. )...but I can absolutely agree with you on what I quoted above. I feel exactly the same way.
