If McCain had won, and he had the sense to keep Sarah quiet, you'd be hearing far less negativity from me than I seem to be hearing from you. That's all I'm sayin'.

Chris, if I've been "negative" as you allude to, I have maybe gone too far. I'm NOT wishing for the Dems & Obama to fail. I'm just a bystander trying, if not successfully, to inject some humor into the situation. Obama, to me, sounds like he's still campaigning. He speaks in flowery alliteration, making broad visionary statements of Lincolnesque proportions. Unfortunately, I don't believe a word of any of it, and the Pelosi-Reid politics behind it all sickens me.

Yeah, I could have done without Pelosi doing her Jack-in-the-box imitation, but I wanna hear my President talk about us rising back up to greatness.
It sure beats all that "OOOOooo, the terrorists will get us" crap from a previous Administration which shall remain nameless.

I guess 9/11 never did happen, did it ? Must be nice to ignore ISLAMO-FASCIST evil and pretend everything those monsters have done all around th world simply never happened.
And America never fell from greatness. That's something the Left wishes were the case, and in fact WANTS us to fail. The way Obama has us headed, we will be the FORMER Great nation, and our future really will be bleak.
It is not those who use the term "Islamo-Fascism" who are sullying the name of Islam; it is the Islamo-Fascists. - Dennis Prager
A concern of the GOP is that the people aren't informed enough to understand their policies, while a fear of the Dems is that the people ARE.

Long after the rest of those that perped 9-11 are dead, they'll have you yellin' for blood like a good little hound. Enjoy your mindless participation in the fear mongering, dude.

Quote:Sanctioning torture ALONE did that. But since the boob tube taught you what to believe & when, there is no point in a debate here.

Glad you can at least acknowledge the Pelosi follies last night. As for the rest, I think this demonstrates perfectly how different folks feel about politics. Back in the early Bush days I was quite proud and happy to see Bush and America finally going after the terrorists who had attacked us multiple times over many years. It felt good, but I couldn't understand why those on the other side of the aisle couldn't appreciate the direction, or what was at stake, and instead sought to attack, demean, and obstruct every chance they got. Now the shoe's on the other foot, and you're having a hard time (maybe?) understanding why the 60+ million people who voted for McCain don't get the "Chris Mathews thrill up the leg" feeling about Obama as you do. I want America's economy to recover, and I hold Bush to blame for much of the mess. Anyone who doesn't want to see America come out of this is a traitor or just nuts. But it is interesting how people and things are perceived by different people in so many different intellectual and emotional ways.

So, when that bomb went ka-blooey and the electromagnetic pulse turned all the ones and zeroes into plain old zeroes, everyone's like, "no way." Now, America's just another broke ex-super power looking for a handout and wondering why."

It was his re-direction to Iraq I didn't cheer for.
Gonna waste a trillion dollars? At least do it in this country.

You gotta take your hope filter off. It's filtering out the excessive fear mongering I heard last night. Not only are the terrorists going to get us, now the totally doomed economy that's falling apart and destroying america and going to rob you in your sleep is going to get and you'll have no home and no health coverage and probably die of some horrible disease. But if you come with me, I can put you in debt for life, and then you might live. I think that was the speech I just heard.
Seriously, no offense, the Obama fell travellers sound as bad as the Bush fellow travellers. And I was really psyched for this speech. I was expecting big change. Instead I heard doom and gloom and a little stealth tactics like "lets sell handing over tons of corporate welfare to banks and drug companies as "helping people" and let's sell unchecked wars of aggression as "moving towards peace."
Democrat talking points are just slightly different than Republican ones:
In Republican, it's "My agenda will keep us safe, protect us from enemies, and make business thrive."
In Democrat it's "My agenda will make peace, and help poor people, not greedy CEOS."
But read between the lines, it's the identical f^&king agenda, just worded differently to sell it to democrats instead of selling it to republicans.
