I thought the Swift Boat ads were insulting & embarrassing, but I wonder to what degree they actually swayed anybody in their vote. But because of the viscious nauture of those ads, I expect to see even more viscious ones thrown at both Obama & McCain this year. Anyone who criticizes Obama will be called a racist, and anyone criticizing McCain will be called a traitor. It's gonna be ugly and bloody and un-relenting.

My opposition to the Bush regime comes from the knowledge that he is simply not a bright person. He lacks intelligence (in more ways than one, as evidenced on 9/11 and after), he lacks curiosity, he lacks reasoning skills; in short, he's certainly not one of his father's "thousand points of light". In that analogy, he's the dim bulb.

This isn’t “knowledge.” There’s no way you could know this. This is more fiddling on the roof.



Well, in the sense of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, you're right - there's no way any of us can "know" anything at all.

How do I "know" Bush ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer? Well, when you tell someone three hundred and forty-seven times in a row how to do something, and they STILL insist on doing it wrong, you start to paint a mental picture of a drooling moron who only manages to breathe on his own because he still has a semi-functioning brain stem.

All right, George - Say the word "Nuclear" for me...

I rest my case. Language > Bush

And don't forget McCain's alleged illegitimate black baby from South Carolina. I'm sure every Republican will distance themselves from that particularly vicious rumor - but probably not from Karl Rove, who was in charge of Bush's Department of Dirty Tricks during that campaign.

And I'm sure there are those tired of having their love of their country attacked and questioned simply because they might believe in the agenda and mission statements of the current regime.

And yet, in another post, Finn had THIS to say:

Quote:

Rev. Wright is a good example of the extreme racism that exists in the US. A racism that exists predominately among African-Americans, at least some. Unfortunately, there is a double standard when it comes to racism in the US.


And you know all this about Rev. Wright, HOW, exactly? From the twenty seconds of him that you saw on the news, ON TV? Or are you going to tell me that you actually know the man in real life, and he's just as much a racist as you proclaim him to be? Or do you "know" he's a racist because you've read in detail all of his works, and you've found the inherent racism in the 250,000+ minutes of his sermons that AREN'T included in the TV sound bites or posted on YouTube?

Unfortunately, there is a double standard when it comes to what you believe when you see it on TV... You can't even bring yourself to give a PASTOR the benefit of the doubt when all you have to go on is TV sensationalism!

But, hey, I understand how you came to such a low ability to tell truth from fiction; you're clearly a result of the TV generation...

Fuck nice, it's too late for nice.

The open hand has been offered, and spurned for years, it's well past time to ball it into a fist and ram it down the throat of those who's answer to threats against our country is leaving the bad guys nothing left TO threaten.

Folks, it's time for MEAN.
