Here are some of your comments made in a thread in the Politics section of the board. Let me make this clear to you people. The majority of you say pretty much the same thing(FCK BOTH PARTIES-SCREW POLITICS.) That's not as interesting as you seem to think. Pretty much one person can speak for the group of you.


That speech didn't help Obama one bit.
Your party is full of f.ucktards.



I think this country is f.ucked either way. It really doesn't matter who is in office.

I'd put my ballot in her box.


No hanging chad here.

What's ridiculous is to tell people that the parties are in any way equal. A child could examine the Supreme Court Justices chosen by each President and see very large differences in the way these people vote on important issues So, you're simply dead wrong, and the rest of these people saying this crap(parties are the same) are also. For the most part, we have a very ignorant electorate. You want another a-hole like Scalia making decisions about the way we live? They asked McCain which justices he wouldn't have appointed. He never said a damn thing about Scalia....nooooooo. He mentioned 3 of the Supreme Court justices nominated by Clinton. When people come on here and say Presidential Elections don't matter much, they simply show their ignorance. I don't want another Scalia. Given a chance to say Scalia was somebody he wouldn't have nominated, McCain didn't do it. That's a huge difference between the 2 candidates, and the 2 parties. Scalia is the worst Supreme Court Justice ever, and Obama would say that. McCain didn't even mention him as one of the 3 he wouldn't of nominated. Huuuuuuge
difference.

You can marry your boyfriend and your surrogate can abort 20 babies for all I care. It's an issue that most americans don't care enough about to swing their vote.

Also liberal judges have allowed for ridiculous invasions of privacy as well. Take your blinders off.

What exactly are you going for here? More vague liberal talking points?

Then why is it so hard for the democratic party to manipulate these so-called dummies? Could it be because they've let the far-left nutters such as yourself control the party? You know, the kind of people that are no different than the Nascar crew you consistently make fun of? Sure, you both have completely different views...the insanity is all the same though.

And this is shocking to you? It would be like Obama praising Clarence Thomas.

Are you mainlining or something?

Whaaaaah.

I don't think any poster on here said elections don't matter. They do matter, just not in a positive way.

My opinion is that far less important issues like gay rights, abortion, religion, and drugs have been a horrible distraction for the american people. Both parties have used these issues to keep us out of sorts while they f.uck us real good on the things that matter most.

Like jobs, immigration (jobs), health care, social security, and national security/foreign policy.

Both parties fail tremendously in these areas. Please feel free to tell me otherwise. I need a good laugh.

every election cycle you hear claims early on that immigration is really going to matter this time, yet it never happens.

i haven't watched any of this convention, and won't watch the repubs either, I just can't stomach all the BS. but I caught on the news that they can't fit Obama's massive ego inside the convention hall, so his acceptance speech will be at the football stadium on a huge stage that would make superbowl half-time organizers blush, and in front of 85,000 people. they showed the stage and it looks like this show might dwarf the opening ceremonies of the Olympics. if this guy gets elected they'll need a new White House, much much larger and more audacious.

you're saying it does not matter who is in office. The same"fkd" result will be the outcome. You're saying right here that elections don't matter. If a Democrat had been in office ,then Scalia wouldn't have been nominated. You then say that the issues the Supreme Court decides (such as civil rights, abortion , civil liberties etc.) aren't as important as other issues. That's only because you take them for granite. Get enough Conservatives on the Court, and see how long you have civil liberties. It won't be for long. They would be like Turkey(block any internet sites they deem offensive...like about 1000...including YOUTUBE ETC.) They'd outlaw abortion etc. Actually I am o.k. with that, but many people aren't. If HEALTH CARE is an important issue to you then how can you say it doesn't matter who is the President? One party wants to do something about healthcare, and the other wants to do very little(other than healthcare savings accounts.) Again, the 2 people running for President aren't close on their views about healthcare. I would think it would matter a great deal which one is elected.

Not entirely true. I also take them for platinum, gold, and silver.

That's called an eggcorn.

acorn= looks like could be a combo of corn and an egg.

granite= cheap rock

take something for granite=take something for cheap rock

take something for granted= doesn't really paint a picture, but people prefer this one...........Slowly it will change to the alternate form. The eggcorn will become the accepted.

Characteristic of the eggcorn is that the new phrase makes sense on some level ('old-timer's disease' for 'Alzheimer's disease').

Scalia may be an idealogue but he is not a dumb butt.

Clarence Thomas is an absolute disgrace. He is apparently a nice man,
but he is just flat out inferior compared to anyone of the Supreme Court
justices.

You are blathering away about the wrong conservative justice.

I see many positives in both candidates this year.
This is a much more hopeful situation imo, even though
the country as a whole has suffered a large blow
in international prestige, and the economy has been stifled.

As an indepedent, this is a good year for me.
We have legitimate choices.

No, I picked the right one to talk about, because the smarter one can always do more harm than the copycat follower type.

So all in all, a peachy outlook.
Tomorrow has me all excited.


I like both the candidates.
This is not GW v. John Kerry.
Both parties give us what we want on the whole.
Otherwise they would do things differently.
They research what people want to hear.
And they speak accordingly.

It is not all together clear why people search for
a way to hate the candidate they dont wish to vote for.
Probably because its easier just to call something crappy
and be done with it.

Clinton, as always, showed why he is considered one of the best orators in the last fifty years.

Biden is currently showing that he is about the worst. This is sickening.

He really is extraordinary.
He reminds me of this preacher we have here in San Antonio, John Hagee.
Now this Hagee, about everything he says I find repulsive.
But the man is so good. He just weaves a sermon that is captivating.
He speaks extraordinarily well. His intonation and timing are incredible.
But the substance of what he is actually saying is sickening.

BTW I think it will be terribly interesting if McCain picks Lieberman as his running mate.

No way he will take Lieberman. Again, the differences between the moderate Republican and the Conservative Democrat (or whatever Joe calls himself) are huge(not minor.) There are huge differences on major core issues. Again, if you asked each which was the worst Supreme Court Nomination, their answers would be totally opposite. How could you possibly think they could be on the same ticket?Just because Joe likes the war in IRAQ doesn't mean he is gunna agree enough with McCain to be on his ticket. I'd have no problem with Joe as President(which could happen if McCain kicks it.) So, I will hope you're right, but I would be shocked if he took him on the ticket. He needs to keep those states in the south red, and Lieberman( a Jew) weakens that a bit. There are many people who think some southern states would have gone to Gore if he hadn't had a Jew on the ticket. Hard to know if that's true or not.
