GOD DAMN SLY ... You'll say anything to support Obama . Are you sure it wasn't you in the limo with him smoking his pole while he was smoking crack ? ::
Maybe it's unimportant that Obama attends a Church that tries to help progress his community. Maybe it's unimportant that they honor a 'bad' person while Obama publicly denounces him.
your right we dont like farrakhan because hes an anti-semite racist pile of shit we hate him because hes "powerful" i wouldnt even call him that, hes more of a running joke than anything i suppose since you like him youll be beamed back up to the mothership with him
Obama has DENOUNCED (and rejected) Farrakhan so what the hell are you on about. It wasn't fair of teh white moderator of teh debate (and Clinton) to force him to do that...but he did. Plus he had said prior to that that he distanced himself from some of Farrakhan's more inflamatory comments and kept his distance from the man himself. What the fuck more do you want from him? You want him to leave the church and denounce his pastor just because the same pastor decided to commend farrakhan for teh work he's done with young blacks and black self esteem over teh years? It's not like Farrakhan had a scandal like Watergate, Lewinskygate, or something like some of the White Leaders that many people still praise.
why are we even arguing this who gives a fuck some guy wrote some shit in pauls name like 20 fucken years ago, id have thought itd be nipped in the bud by now, guess not the FACT is, paul is not a racist his actions clearly say that isnt is odd that the obama supporters here like to refer back to some WORDS, and not his actions that seems to be the running theme here
btw that was obamas total SOLO earmarks when he was working with another senator the earmarks are: $399,766,475 :: :: govt accountability and less spending my ass
Why do you even want to know? You're obviously not voting for him. All of you guys are looking for someone to say something that you can shoot down. You want to know about his stance on a certain issue read his website. It's all laid out for you: http://www.barackobama.com/issues/ I'm leaning towards voting for Obama, but it doesn't mean that I agree with everything he's ever done. You want to bring up something more specific(as in policies) we can discuss it. But if your looking for some broad sweeping statement as to why I would want to vote for Obama, that's when you bring in the buzzwords.
And today you're playing Joan Jett on Guitar Hero.... <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8s3_yv3gxpQ"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8s3_yv3gxpQ" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> TFK
youd vote for him because of buzzwords? thats an issue infact thats the main issue they dont know any of obamas policies, and they cant even intelligently defend them if you want to debate, id love to, over policies btw: for everyone, obama is a constitutional lawyer, or he studied constitutional law, doesnt this seem weird given his policies?
I just want to know why people would vote for Obama. It's that simple. But nobody has given me a legitimate reason yet. Mostly, I get ignored. If I'm lucky, I get buzzwords. Why is it so hard to get an answer to what seems to be a very simple question? I was asked what I don't like about Obama, and I answered it. There was a thread asking why people don't like McCain, and I gave my reasons. There hasn't been a thread about why people don't like Clinton (I guess because it's obvious), but if there were, I'd give my reasons. Some people here support Obama. I want to know why. And spouting off buzzwords like 'Change' and 'Inspiration' don't mean shit, and they don't answer the question. TFK
so you cant tell me why youd vote for him outside of buzzwords? ask anyone else that question and they can atleast give you some concrete answer "ad34 why are you voting for ron paul?" "well because paul wants a limited constitutional government and allow the people the economic and social freedoms that used to be their birthright. he wants to establish sound currency as well as lower taxes and lower regulations. he wants to free up the markets. if you take a look at his record, his votes and his legislation youll see what i mean" and then i could describe how his policies would work on the other hand youll get this though "so-and-so, why do you support obama?" "CHANGE!" not quite the same
obama honors them??? on one hand you want to attach obama with racist and on another you want to completely ignore ron pauls attachment to racist articles. if obama had a newsletter out with racist diatribes you'd bring it up left and right. bottom line petre...when it comes to politics you are about as brain dead as one of those zombies in 'night of the living dead'.
btw: so much for your "ron paul isnt a man of action" thing almost 400 things sponsored or cosponsored just this session :: and just as many last
i must have missed it, with all the shit thats being thrown back and forth in this thread :: please explain again, copy and paste or just refer me to the page #
Like I said multiple times in this thread, he's the only one that's shown the capability to unite Americans. I feel we need that more than anything right now.
didn't ask about sponsored you idiot...can you fucking READ??? ron paul sponsors legislation left & right but nothing gets passed and signed into law...:laughing:
it's laughable that you ask a "can do" question but you certainly aren't smart enough to understand what phonetap means...after all he's repeated himself a million times today without a legitimate answer.
ok so you had to qualify it, i see i guess sponsoring and cosponsoring 400 bills in a session isnt "action" as far as i know from www.govtrack.com, paul has had zero pass obama on the other hand has the astounding total of ONE thing passed if you actually look at the things they sponsor and cosponsor however, youll see that not only are pauls more meaningful but also things that would be MUCH harder to pass its hard to pass a bill that wants to take power away from the people who are voting on it
