Obama has the ability to make hanging out with terrorists and racists seem acceptable. That is super clever and crafty. Bravo


you are unbelievable......

Chat Icon Chat Icon



Thank You

but lemme ask you this, does Obama not admit to being friends with Ayers (a terrorist) and Wright ( a racist)? And yet everyone loves him? So how am I wrong? I think he is very smart and clever not many people could have gotten this far with that history. And this is all fact. So take it out on me if you must, but show me your friends and Ill tell you who you are...



How about reading?

The OP *clearly* states say ONE genuinely positive thing about the candidate you are NOT voting for.

Instead, you chose to make a snide remark, based on your opinion, which was a backhanded comment..

I gathered that the intention of this post was to promote positivey in our different political beliefs...

I guess you can't comprehend that which is why YOU are one of those people I would tune out because you have one agenda, stick to it (which is great) but are INCAPABLE of being objective.

The thread was say something NICE about the other candidate.....Just try to do it.



I did, he is brilliant

ETA: oh and why am I being attacked when there were a bunch of posts, before mine, makng fun of McCain and his breathing?




right

because making fun of mccains breathing is SUCH a fair comparison to putting obama in the same category as terrorists and racists.....

RIIIIIGHT


got it



because the intention of this post was NOT ABOUT making fun of the other candidate.

but it is fact that he is quite friendly with Bill Ayers.



I have to ask...how do you know this to be fact?

EVERYTHING I've heard states the opposite...that they were associated with similar non-profit organizations to help schools and communities.l They sat on boards together (with members from both parties) and met maybe a dozen times over the course of a number of years. That doesn't sound like friends to me.

I agree.

Regardless of the things that I disagree with, I think McCain is out for Americans and would make a great president.

And I figured I would throw in something about Palin too, as one of her biggest Non-Supporters. I believe she has great ambition and, aside from her public "mistakes", she is a smart and intelligent woman.

I admire Barack's passion and his ambitions, which I believe are truly borne out of his desire to really improve life in America for most Americans.


(I must say, this is the first election that I am NOT voting Democrat, and except for 2 key issues for me, i really do like him.)

Another uncalled for post.

Both this and the other post about terrorists are disheartening.

Please don't say that! You started a great post. Unfortunately, not everyone has the maturity or grace to answer appropriately. Don't let it bring you down.Chat Icon

I admire the OP for making a positive post. I admire each person who came on here and tried to answer honestly and in good faith withno snark and no agendas.

Both candidates, IMO, are god decent men with distinguished records of service to this country. Chat Icon

Its sad to see that on both sides, whether it is a snide comment about watery eyes, marrying up, or accusations about relationships with terrorists, that the true desire of this post couldn't stay true.

So with that said, I'll say...that I think he and his wife are intelligent, thoughtful people, great parents and truly have a desire to bring about change in this country.

I think he is very smart and clever not many people could have gotten this far with that history. And this is all fact. So take it out on me if you must, but show me your friends and Ill tell you who you are...



actually- he never used the word "friends" - that would have been Palin- "pal around"

he said last night- he was on a committee for education with PROFESSOR Ayers

along with serveral chicago REPUBLICANS

and that Obama was 8 when Ayers committed his crimes




That is what he said, but it is fact that he is quite friendly with Bill Ayers.




Fact


guess it's not a FACT afterall

thanks Kevin!
