    Bush has seriously fucked us all, but just wait and see what it's like if McCain gets the ticket. I will be on the first boat to the south pole. :mad:

    I do prefer McCain as a candidate to Bush in 2000. He won the GOP nomination by saying that John McCain was for breast cancer. Actually he's moderate enough to where the ditto head portion of the party rejects him, which'll be good for liberals, particularly if Obama is nominated.

    Although if McCain becomes president, I'm marrying Cate8, moving to Calgary, and joining the rodeo.

    That does sound like a good plan Spence, but seriously McCain is only going to push us closer to WW3...as if we weren't already headed that direction as it is.

    I doubt the world war 3 talk. Although the bastard does want to see us in Iraq through the century, comparing it to our presence in South Korea.

    I don't know. McCain has referenced every single military action we have been involved over the last 20 years with the claim, "needed more force." He is Jonesing for a war with just about anyone willing to fight, I'm afraid. I just hope it doesn't go that far.

    I don't particularly agree with his politics either, but I could listen to his spiel all day.

    He is likely the most elloqent man I've ever heard. I think it's the thick british accent, the parlence of a literati and the 9 scotch slur.

    Spence, to run the risk of starting a political quagmire here, who are you gunning for in November, do you have a preference yet?

    Well my canidate was Dennis Kucinich. He dropped out about a month and a half ago.

    I generally consider myself disenfranchised. However, the 6 years of the bush legacy with a GOP congress turned my general apathy into the need for direct action.

    I'm a liberal, my goals are healthcare, education and scientific and social advancement, and as far as I can tell the most liberal canidate with the best chance of winning is Obama.

    I have a bit of a grudge with Bill Clinton over some of his policy desicions which I feel led to the second Congo War, which is the worst war in human history since world war 2. I shouldn't put that on his wife, but I don't like the idea of a Bush/Clinton/Bush/Clinton dynasty anyway.

    So Obama.

    Heres how I scored on the political compass. It's not the best test...

    I scored really close to the Dali Lama. I'm actually not fond of a Tibetan monkhood either.

    I have a lot of grievances. :D

    neastraudramus (however its spelled havent slept in a week) predicted ww3 started with the 1st gulph war daddy bush was responcible for, escelated with sept 11th and would grow and grow over many years
    we're already in ww3
    just havent experienced the worset of it yet
    unless we make all the right choices were headed somewhere we dont wanna go

    a world war is a war that much of the world is involved in
    daddy got it goin and the retarded son justgot the world involved (and like a truely retarded leader he got the world after a couple enemies and when they were unable to make alotta headway against those enemies he started adding new enemies, harder ones to defeat pretty much guaranteeing a spectacular failure or at least a complete mess that will go on and on and on

    Nostradamus also predicted the world would end in 1999.

    Perhaps you're not in a condition, sleep deprived as you are, condusive to making relevant posts. But nothing you've said has been substantial.

    if we gotta have a president id vote for my freind vermin supreme
    [​IMG]

    hed bring a bit of fun back to polotics
    might not do the best job,k but definately wouldnt do the worse
    would probly repeal many senceless laws (like marijuana prohibition) and enact a few comical ones like all teeth must be brushed daily, or be sentenced toi wear underwear outside your pants for a week
    and would solve global crises not with threats of war but a joke a toke and a hug
    (and to give credit to his track record, while bush & fema sat around tryin to figure out what to do aftrr katrina for daysd and weekls while people suffered and died, he was there, in the destruction zone within a couplke of days, feeding providing confort and aid doing the job the president shoulda beren doin but wasnt

    vermin supreme, of the misinformed citizens party (arent we all misinformed citizens? are we democrats or republicans because thats really ourtr choiuce? or because we are misinformed into thinking we have to choose one over the other and choising any 3rd choice only helps the 1 we'd least like to win of the 1st 2)

    i know i canmt say im 100% behind the democratic ideals i can only say i'm more against the republican
    but neither would be the choice of truly informed citizens

    when forced to choose the lesser of 2 evils (or 3 or 12 or 100)
    i have a feelin that goin with the clown would be less evil then goin with a warmonger or scumbag


    (havent talked to vermin in sa bit, anyone know if hes been tryin to get in this time? have a feelin he is..lol(not that he tries too hard, personaly the harder they try the less i trust them...putting them in office should be pour choice..not theyres)
    politicians run for president not because they feel (unless theyre megalomaniacs) that they alone are the only 1 who could do the job right but because they want what they can get out of having the job...pushing a personal agenda, the powerr. the $ the fame


    the best way to choose a president if we need 1, is..(just came up with the idea so beasr with mee still figurin it out)
    nobody runs for the office, instead
    everyone in the country fills out a survey of how they'd handle say 1000 key issues
    then computerized ballots created from those results which allow you to rank the issues in order of importance to the voters so each voter has a list of maybe 100 candidates whowould handle issues the way the voter would want most
    then they can review background info on each candidate (job education histories criminal hostoroies (religios and sexual prefferences and histories MUST BE LEFT OUT AND UNKNOWN TO THE VOTERS)
    they then vote for the candidates they want most
    the voteds get counted and the leading candidate offered the job, he then must choose to accept it or decline if declined the next gets offer
    sure the winner wont be the 1 with 50% of the vote or more since it will be spread out so much, but its the only way to choose who the people choose not who chooses lie cheayt and mislead in order to get more to choose you


    (try comming up with a better theory when u havenyt slept in 6 days..lol)
