I really do you respect you, Eric, but I have to disagree respectfully.

She has been what you call "nice" for exactly 5 days. And I
doubt very much that her frantic calls to the superdelegates have
been "nice."

She has lost. She is the loser. Her speech last night certainly
indicated that she plans to drag her pitiful lost cause to Denver,
which will mean that McCain will win for sure -- with less than two
months for Obama to campaign as the party's candidate.

Her promise that she will campaign for Obama must have been in
the Wolf Blitzer interview. In that same interview, she again
lied about the Michigan vote. She even added to that lie tonight -- saying that many states violated DNC requirements. That is just not true. I am so weary of debunking her lies. Harold Ickes voted with the DNC for the Michigan and Florida sanctions. Hillary
said on October 11, 2007, that she knew the Michigan vote would not count.

I have posted twice what Terry McAuliffe said on last week's Meet the Press, boasting in his book that when he (McAuliffe) was DNC chairman he told Carl Levin that the DNC rules were that if Michigan set its primary back, Michigan would be sanctioned and "the only way its delegates would see the primary would be on television."

I would hope that she can make it until June 3 without any more
race baiting. And I would hope that she will bow out then. But
I don't know why in the name of God Obama would want her to
campaign for him, much less be his running mate. He might as well
name Michael Richards as his running mate.

There is also less difference between McCain and Bush than there is between Obama and John Kerry. America votes for whom they like. IS Obama more likeable than McCain. Having met both of them many times, they are equally Likealble to me, but what about bubba in the Red States and other places?

The Teri B's of the world? Would Teri B vote for McCain over Obama? I think she would.
I can't speak for Teri, but I don't gather she'd vote for McCain. I think she's hoping for the Democrats to come together, whomever they choose.

by RK about Eman and me

here's an example just posted by her , nothing new - this is mild by comparison.
Quote:
Playing chess with a retard who beats you is starting to stunt your brain.

An adhominem argument (in abreviated explanation) ARGUES that you are wrong because you are a dickless, short ugly ignorant asshole.I am NOT arguing that this is by you are wrong. I am arguing that you are wrong because your knowledge is limited (as I have illustrated). The fact that you are a worthless pile of dogshit ........AGAIN!!
now I don't give a shit what RK thinks of me.
She's a bombthrower, and loves to spew.

But this is what we Hillary supporters have put up with for months, NOT just by her.

Am I all of a sudden just supposed to say - well vote Obama?

I noticed tonight on Wolf Blitzers interview with her, she is urging us that to not vote for Obama
would be " a tragic mistake " is what Hillary called it.

But I ain't no Christian, and forgiveness is not part of my religion.
Bad karma is, and I try not to let it junk up my mind with hate, for my sake.

So I have to just let go of any hate and vote for what is best for America, and that is prolly Obama.

My mind say "clear out the hatespeech", but my heart says
"fuck it - Obama doesn't deserve my vote", as this is indicative of his supporters.

It's easy to turn the page, but not so simple to forget what I just read in the previous chapter.

Which is why I am not ready to promise to support Obama yet.

She sent a great message today about supporting Obama over McCain and that she would work for him if he is the nominee. Hopefully, even though some of her supporters may never like Obama, they will come together for the good of the Democratic party.


Cockeyed Optimist

When the skies are brighter canary yellow
I forget ev'ry cloud I've ever seen,
So they called me a cockeyed optimist
Immature and incurably green.

I have heard people rant and rave and bellow
That we're done and we might as well be dead,
But I'm only a cockeyed optimist
And I can't get it into my head.

I hear the human race
Is fallin' on its face
And hasn't very far to go,
But ev'ry whippoorwill
Is sellin' me a bill,
And tellin' me it just ain't so.

I could say life is just a bowl of Jello
And appear more intelligent and smart,
But I'm stuck like a dope
With a thing called hope,
And I can't get it out of my heart!
Not this heart...



No crime in hoping though, Eric!

I cannot think of anything more pathetic than you being so weak and lame as to try to tie your lazy anchor of a self onto voting or not voting for Obama.

I think you are an ignorant lazy lying racist fool.

It has nothing to do with Obama.

I could illustate the same traits about you on any given topic on any day of the week!

The fact that you think that this has ANYTHING to do with Obama simply proves my point!

You keep thinking that someone should give a shit if you are a sore loser----wrong!

The world will go on if you don't vote or if you drop dead before the election.

You reach lower and lower depths of respect every single day you post (all though transfer shit from one thread to another is cutesy, it is in fact a new low).

What part of you don't do anything or say anything worthy of that reflects any personal integrity that would warrant consideration are you not understanding?

Oh---and if you weren't trolling me constantly you would not have to worry about what I post to others here----now would you?

Here----you've earned this!
