But tree stumps are good to piss on.

[Malcom "Mal" Reynolds]

fundies spend a lot of time with tree stumps? I didn't know you knew Mitt

[Malcom "Mal" Reynolds]

apparently that's all you're good at...doubting. like most of your ilk, it would never occur to you to open a civilized discussion on a topic

[Malcom "Mal" Reynolds]

exactly who did I call a name?

[The Daring Dufas]

Malcom, I don't know why you keep bringing up entertainment underwear and now you you mention a catchers mitt. You poor thing, you really are mentally ill. ^_^

TDD

[The Daring Dufas]

OK, you first. Lets see if it's even possible for you to be civilized. ^_^

I had little confidence in Obama and Romney.

I was for McCain until he chose Palin.

What I could not rationalize away was that if anything happened to him. she'd be in.

I voted for Obama simply because he seemed the lesser of the two evils.

He has not done great...but he has done better than what I actually expected. As a matter of fact, after he got Bin Laden who Bush ignored I have to admit I was a bit surprised.

As to National Health Care, I was surprised too...but not in a good way.

I guess there were a few million who will benefit from it...good for them.

BTW: Obama is not a Muslim nor is Romney a Mormon.

Can you say the word "politician" ?

That's what their religion is...politics.

Let's go back one president and talk about subverting presidential power!

I didn't vote for the "magic-undies guy" either!

Per philo :

Also, in retrospect, his letting himself be stuck with such a candidate reflected poorly on both his judgment and ability to assign tasks and accountability. My understanding is that in the post-mortems, there was finger-pointing to the effect of "Well, I thought *he* was supposed to be vetting her...."

[philoÂÂ]

Prior to the election I read a very good article on the vetting process. I forgot where ...but I think it was in the New Yorker. At any rate I expected that it would be quite biased against him. It was a very good assessment actually and before one got to really know Palin, it initially looked like a good idea. I thought so myself until she opened her mouth.

I finally could not rationalize her away so I became a tepid Obama supporter.

The bottom line was that she had been vetted and all that was expected from McCain was a rubber stamp. That is exactly what happened. He really did only talk to her for a few minutes.

I was on the newsgroups arguing with people and referred them to the article and no one read it. The typical comment was that it was a long story and "I'm not going to read all that."

A twenty minute read which would have a profound effect on the next four years and beyond.

When I got my job repairing industrial batteries 39 years ago...I spent close to two hours with the owner of the company.

Like I said. I fixed batteries and I got more of an interview than McCain gave Palin.

I suppose that alone was enough to question McCain's ability to run the country.

Romney was sunk by his Freudian slip (47%)

so guess who was left?

Way too late now.

[Malcom "Mal" Reynolds]

what? and destroy your belief that anyone that doesn't believe what you believe must by definition be a PLLCF? how could I ever overcome your faith with facts?

[Malcom "Mal" Reynolds]

so you hate the Great American Pastime? How horribly anti-american

[krw]

More lies from Malformed. Who wudda guessed.

[krw]

Malformed was talking through his mitt. He's a catcher.

[krw]

Let's see if it's possible for Malformed to tell the truth, first.
