Because we're all commenting on his original post. He also failed to provide any link whatsoever to the article. How are we to know if it's an actual article or not? Surely you don't expect us to take his word for it. Hell, he even states: This is from an article I read a couple of months ago.

Are we to believe he remembers the entire 'article' he read a couple of months ago?

You know I love ya Cookie, but you know what the intent is here.

Try inserting the name Bush, wherever you see the name Obama, and see how his op reads.


And tell me what you think about this snippet.



Quote:
Internationally, the approach that Senator Obama proposes -- including the media magic of meetings between heads of state -- was tried during the 1930s. That approach, in the name of peace, is what led to the most catastrophic war in human history.


You think that we should abandon past policies, just because they supposedly didn't work 70 years ago?


I can think of no better time to try something simple, to undo the mess we are in.

Okay fair enough but are we seriously supposed to take a baseball analogy about Obama obtaining the presidency on an error after 8 years of the Bush Administration? If ever there was a presidency deserving of a Baseball analogy it is the Bush presidency. He did own a baseball team afterall. Let's see; Bush can't even get the ball over the plate, his presidency has thrown more beanballs than strikes. They is so dumb that they once showed up for a game at the wrong stadium and stuck around for five years. The only thing keeping him in the game is the lousy officiating. They decided against testing them for performance enhancing substances, anyone who does that poorly can't be cheating can they?

Conservative views should go in the conservatives forum. Please start using it.

Even you, will want Bush back in a very short time if Obama wins this thing.

I recieved this article in email and posted it as I felt it was appropriate. I read this same article in a magazine I recieve. The magazine was "Military" and I believe the issue was April. Please feel free to check it anytime you wish.

Not only will I not want Bush back but I would also be okay with giving Texas back to Mexico and Cuba can have Florida while were at it. Your blind faith in an obviously incompetent POS is typical of the 'right is right' mindset. How can you expect us to believe that Republican leadership leads to financial and national security when the last time we had a balanced budget or a Presidential term without a war was your favorite - Clinton. Your constant attempts to paint the democrats as unabashed spenders who are soft on terrorism or any other military threat might work on the inbreds that surround you on a daily basis but I don't think it will work in this forum.

Hey Eric, this seems like an odd time to change the rules. What is the harm in allowing posts like this in the Election Center forum? We are discussing what is best for the U.S.A. aren't we and in the U.S. we still have the right to express differing opinions? I guess I am more than a little offended that you move posts like this but allow idiotic and inflamatory posts from E-man where he called the 4000+ deaths of U.S. servicemembers in Iraq "acceptable".

Are you saying that conservatives can not post on any thread they wish? I will continue to post as I feel is proper or until one of the "board-police/judge/jury" decides to eject me from the board. I do not curse or threaten anyone so one could only assume that my political views is what makes you so nervous. I suppose that we that have strong political views that differ from what the liberals feel is proper should get used to being censored, that is if Obama wins.
