Members Tishy Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 You know what is pissing me off? Reading posts saying I am ignoring certain posters. I am annoyed having to wade though a shitload of posts that say that when there really is good arguments from both sides here. What the hell ever happened to respecting everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GoldenDogs Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 Yup, and I think in the polling (if you can trust any of it), likely voters is more of a key sampling than registered voters... But I do believe that those polled don't always tell the truth. I agree with Greg... I think the polls don't really matter much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GoldenDogs Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 Brian reminds himself to read the posts slowly... As for the elitist thing... It IS elitist because you are suggesting his education is more valuable and worthy than hers. "Only the RIGHT college, you see... Not that silly little place Palin went to..." Let's be honest... there is a bit of elitist in some supporters of Barack Obama. Heather Mallick anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 And then there's McCain supporter Lynn Forester de Rothschild, worth about $600 million dollars along with her husband. Ah yes........real "Salt Of The Earth" folk there. Out there in the fields........in Europe........ordering her workers to work harder. I guess when the world financial community collapses she can get a job at White Castle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wales2004 Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 I guess I should already know that if Obama has any elitist supporters then it's a reflection on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How HRC women voters can still back her after this news is just beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jess Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 He really was linked to the Keating Five. He wasn't found guilty of anything though. He says it is one of those things that ended up being a kind of defining moment for him. It's what convinced him to advocate so heavily for campaign finance reform. I guess it's a good and a bad. All the polls are within the margin of error regardless. I think there are a lot of problems with polls this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jess Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 Now now, I suspect there is a whole lot of elitism going on on both sides -- Cindy McCain isn't common folk. :lol: You know, I'd be a great owner of a beer company though.

Members GoldenDogs Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 You know, being elitist really doesn't have anything to do with money. While those on the right often hurl the "elitist" word around when describing Obama, his Hollywood supporters, etc., do you feel, Jess, that Palin could be considered elitist in any way?

Members GoldenDogs Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 Obama Laments Debt, But Promises Billions for Anti-Poverty Program Barack Obama, who lamented Friday that “we have not managed our federal budget with any kind of discipline,” is nonetheless promising to spend $50 billion on a United Nations anti-poverty program that critics say will drive up American debt. -------------------- Is this a good idea? I have an idea what my friends on the right think about all this... but what about my friends on the left? Roman, Wales, etc. -- what do ya'll think about Barack's promise to spend this $50 billion of American money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 Well, lets' see. Thanks for putting me on the left, even though I have never said where my ideology stands. Let's see.......$50 billion dollars to help poor people.......while, under the Bush Admin., Iraq has $80 billion dollars of our money in their banks while we currently have hit the financial crisis. And gas is still through the roof while Big Oil makes out with billions and the CEOs of the companies we all just bailed out made off like bandits. You're right, Wost. We should not spend that money on poor people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wales2004 Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 Thanks because I may offer off the wall opinions but I don't knowingly spread lies. I guess it's easier for someone to make accusations than it is to admit being wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Roman Posted September 20, 2008 Members Share Posted September 20, 2008 That is the hardest thing to do for many people. It makes them seem like they don't know what they're talking about..... Or they're FOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
