Now. Now.

You have to admit the guy is amusing.
But he has no business on any real "News"
broadcast.

He is a hell of a lot funnier than Rush Limbaugh.
Or Mr. Factor, who is actually funny in his seriousness.

He was amusing on ESPN. Do people take him serious politically?

no, which is why he is a perfect choice to lead the MSNBC political team.

Some people take him seriously just like Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Al Franken...
They are called partisan knuckleheads. Some people take Fox New seriously.

Actually Fox News is good on Sun morning with Chris Wallace.
It ends there. Fair and Balanced, what a crock.

Obama being a Muslim is far down the reasons not to vote for him. Political parties aside, I still believe that there are too many racist people in this country that will go out of their way to vote against a black guy with a Muslim name for him to win by anything but a slim margin. The truth is if you dont live in one of the swing states your vote hardly matters anyway.

I should have written "lol" when I said "I guess Obama misspoke"

I'm a left winger, I would be more upset over Obama being a liar than he being a Muslim. Not an extreme Muslim like the crazies who want to die for the cause and go to the land of 107 virgins(or whatever that is)

If I were a Republican that was a bit paranoid, I would not be happy at all with Obama's "gaffe"

The Jeremiah Wright thing actually bothered me a bit, too.

I'm still with Obama, but I do trust that the crazy gambler and woman lover Johnny McCain has a good heart

i agree. but if he is a muslim, then why all the effort to deny it? i think it was just a slip. but i always try to give benefit of the doubt anyway. what your religion is shouldn't matter. honesty on the other hand.....lol probably asking for too much from a pol in that matter.

It shouldnt. But it does.
A whole bunch.

Presidents:
WASPS all except Kennedy.
Sex should not matter either madam President.
But it does, a whole bunch.

Muslim Pakistan even had a woman leader.

So who is in the dark ages here...

It's the only reason I wouldn't vote for him. I'm not ever gunna vote for an admitted Muslim. So, prove he is a Muslim. Actually, you're right. About 5 states aren't already spoken for. That's the "beauty" of the Electoral College. Your vote rarely matters.

So you wont vote because California is solidly Obama?

I have gone against the wish of Texas on a few occasions.
I might take the plunge again. We will see.

But my point is, Republicans seemingly had no problem voting for someone who makes mistakes all of the time when speaking, twice. So why is is it an issue now? And since you are the only one with balls enough to respond, isn't this basically the same as McCain "forgetting" how many houses he has? I don't remember seeing threads about what a sharpie he is. Fair and balanced I guess.
Maybe I'm retarded but isn't forgetting your religious affiliation a far greater gaffe than forgetting how many houses you own?

I mean...it isn't to me...I'd rather both candidates be atheists...but you understand what I'm saying.

I would not doubt that they are, or agnostic.
But you will never find that out because the majority
of the country could never handle such blasphemy.
