You're assuming waaaaaaaaay too much here. First of all I have no love for the Republican Party and it's bungling idiocy. John McCain is my next to last choice for a nominee, somewhere right in front B. Hussein Obama.

Since when is quoting the Chicago Tribune MY opinion? Geez, I even asked YOU GUYS to do some research yourself. Don't start playing debate with me here. My opinion is just fine, facts or not. So is yours. This is just a discussion and don't start trying to silence me.

Uh sorry, I forgot to mention my clairvoyant abilities. When running for the state Senate, rather than run against his opponents Obama chose to have his cult followers challenge the nominating petition signatures of his opponents thereby disqualifying them. According to the Chicago Tribune, Mr. Obama's petition challengers reported to him nightly on their progress as they disqualified his opponents' signatures on various technical grounds.
In the end, Mr. Obama disqualified all four opponents -- including the incumbent state senator, Alice Palmer, and three minor candidates.

Do me a big favor. Rather than just be on the blind bandwagon, really really do some research into Obama. Also, keep in mind that I can't stand John McCain either. I'm just trying to get some people to wake up about their new Messiah.

I saw no hatred, just opinion. Apparently nothing but labels come out of YOU!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In colloquial English, an "Iron Fist" refers to the authority exerted by a powerful, unforgiving governing figure.

No fair changing your post after I've replied. I'm not shaking over anything. I've been predicting this entire scene months in advance going back to blogs I wrote back in January. Just telling you what I see coming. Unfortunately there is no place to go because the last wall to hide behind for the protection of freedom has always been the United States. We are/were the perfect experiment in freedom.

I just wish I was laughing.

They are preparing you now for what's to come. Good sheep follow the leader. The both McCain and Obama spin came after some people started saying Obama wasn't ready for a crisis.

Better for you to say "in what decade of his glorious lifetime reign as our supreme and perfect leader." Don't say I didn't warn you when you wind up at the debriefing center. Marshall Law will come with the first term "crisis" that Biden apparently has already been briefed on.

What? You think he won't wind up Premier for life? To want anything less would just make you a hater.

You've got to be kidding! You will not see a fair election again as long as Obama and Pelosi control this country. Do you see the grip Obama has on people? He's the iron fist of the 21st Century.

I'm a little late to this party but I see you're another one who sees that the sheep are being led to slaughter. It's sooooooooooo obvious to anyone who's awake that this entire election season has been manipulated.

I honestly believe that we will see Marshall Law during Obama's reign, house to house searches for guns, and people going down to the local party office to tell on their neighbors for political favors.

And still they cheer and think themselves so wise. Change first, chains later.

I can't understand why mods would limit discussion from opposing viewpoints unless it was detrimental to the culture of the board, as in liberals spamming a board dedicated to the right to bear arms or right wingers spamming the Democratic Underground. This board should be neutral territory and open for all viewpoints.

I will defend the Constitution unlike Obama or McCain. As I have said in another thread this is a doom/doom election. I honestly don't think McCain was hired to win this election but to lose it after a convincing enough attempt. If he actually wins he may be in fear of his life.

I will be watching and laughing/crying as Obama the wunderkind leads his new overwhelming majority in Congress down the path of change. Do you all really think it's all going to get better now? Capitalism was mortally wounded this year. All hail the new Socialist order that will stop global warming and finally stick it to big business until there are no jobs that aren't union or government controlled. You'll have independence from big oil and OPEC while you're riding your bicycles to work, uh, I mean to the welfare office. The biggest mistake the people's revolutions make is that after you tax all the rich people and take their riches you eventually run out of rich people to kill, uh, I mean tax. I've watched for years as the left in this country uses terms like assassinate when describing how much they hate the opposition. I've watched the intolerance of dissenting opinion while broadcast news repeats the daily talking points of biased rhetoric ad nauseum. Most if not all of you have no idea why the Bill of Rights exists to try to save you from yourselves. Most do not understand the importance of the Second Amendment and how there can be no guarantee of the First Amendment without the Second. It wasn't number ten so it must have been pretty important to be the second. You speak of the Founding Fathers but haven't done the research to understand what tyranny really is and why they feared it so much. I have a really bad feeling you will understand tyranny in your lifetime. All hail the empty suit but fear the people behind him. You've been sold, boxed, and about to be delivered.

What I find interesting about elections is when the Republicans control the Congress but not the White House it's all about blaming Congress but when the Democrats control the Congress and not the White House it's all about blaming the President.
The real tragedy is that we have the most inept and corrupt Congress in decades and all people can argue about is which talking head script reading village idiot they're going to vote in as president. I wouldn't give you a nickel for Obama or McCain. George Soros got McCain's campaign off the ground then abandoned him once he got him started toward the nomination. So did the New York Times. This whole election is a setup while everyone voting like loyal sheep thinks they're so smart. It was decided for you before any of you ever joined the bandwagon.

About Joe Biden, in 2002 as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee he stated that Saddam Hussein was "a long term threat and a short term threat to our national security" and that United States has "no choice but to eliminate the threat". He also said, "I think Saddam either has to be separated from his weapons or taken out of power."

Biden has a mixed voting record that includes an effort to protect habeas corpus within the Patriot Act. I am personally quite uncomfortable with the idea of broad reaching power under the dept of Homeland Security so there I agree with him. He gets an "F" from the NRA which makes him in my view naive about the importance of the Second Amendment. Personally I'd rather vote for Biden for president than Obama or McCain. He's a lukewarm candidate who has pretty much admitted to plagiarizing one of his speeches and oddly seems less informed about the intellectual details of politics than Dan Quayle ever was.

While we're hashing it out I wish more people would get off their respective cheerleading issues and admit that they'd vote for their own party even if their candidate was on life support with no brain activity. Obama is just a young man with a gift for delivering great speeches he didn't write. McCain is an old man with a lot of experience and a whacked out idea of what constitutes good judgment.

And Joe Biden is a rocket scientist? Turkeys.

Ok, losing the majority in Congress because your policies are out of touch with the will of the American people is screwing up. Monica Lewinsky was not screwing up. Otherwise, the usual politician's blatant cronyism aside, Clinton did little harm and tried his best to do good.
