Where's the birth certificate? The certificate of live birth? Was he born, or was he hatched? Time will tell. Is he the left half of a single celled organism? nobody knows for sure. Time will tell.
Non-Whackadoos, my youth was full of them
So did Hitler. Nice try.
Oh yay! Reductio ad Hitlerum has been introduced to this thread!
I think that's pretty much the sentiment all the way around these days.
*sigh*
Now wait a minute....
Gun control-Chicago-Registration-hadgun ban-Illinois
Are those things not "un-American"?
Are you saying he's Boomer Newt?
Indeed.
But then again, what's the ol' saying....?
"Hope in one hand and **** in the other..."
I'm pretty sure that's already been covered this time 'round.

Every now and then the boy makes sense...
Agree....and as already mentioned: "moderate" got us Obama.
Well, the "true freedom loving citizens who still think the Bill of Rights is our reasoning that gives the government its limited power from the governed" not withstanding, the people just can't respect half-assed.
Trying to please too many people without standing up for any hard convictions is not something that the GOP voters are big fans of.
If McCain woulda' grown some real balls, he *might* be sitting in there today despite his past record.
Prolly...
Does it really matter tho'? The content still rings true.
IMO, that is.

You Obamanites just love to spin don't you? On the day of the election just exactly what had Nobama actually done, ran, or managed other than a campaign? Name one single thing in the real world outside of college.
Sarah had ran a city and a state. If you want to talk about qualifications it could be argued that she was the most qualified of all the Presidential AND Vice Presidential candidates.
So much of what I would have said has already been said by others. But, I will still add a little.
Moderate Republicans = Democrat light (Where in the book store is the category of books for "Great Republican Moderates" that have become great in anything other than being wimpy. (George H.W. Bush started good, but became wimpy.)
As for, Mike Huckabee, he served more as a "lackey" for John McCain by attacking Mitt Romney on his religious views when it was obvious that he (Huckabee) couldn't get selected as the Presidential candidate for the Republicans.
I have known about Sarah Palin before she was chosen as the Vice-Presidential candidate. Personally, I think that she is more of a viable candidate than many others. AND, when it comes down to it, she is a lot brighter than many think. Especially more so than the media and Letterman.
Oh, and I also have ONE MORE gripe against Obama. It is because of him (and the rest of the Democratic Party) that weapons and ammo prices are so high.

I believe he had previously described himself as a Paulite/Paultard/(insert your favorite slang for Ron Paul supporter here) in this thread.
As for Palin, she really nothing more than a political stunt; a poorly planned and executed atempt to simultaneously attract conservatives, biblethumpers, and ex-Hillary supporters to McCain's ticket. Let's be honest now, of ALL of the candidates in the GOP primaries, was McCain, really your first choice for the GOP ticket? I'll bet he wasn't even you second, and possibly not your third either. McCain was the type of candidate who really appealed to no particular GOP voting block, but actually managed to discourage a few as well. Palin was a ditch effort attempt to make up for McCain's shortcomings, and was no where near ready for the major leagues. Given a few mor terms on the smaler stage, and she may have made a wonderful candidate (though one w would still not get my vote), but for petels sake, the only SCOTUS case she could name as important to her was Roe v. Wade. I can name half a dozen and speak at length about them, and I am neither a politician, nor a lawyer. Seeing as I am typing all of this on a cell phone, I will pick this thread up on a PC later if appropriate. Mull this over for now and I'll get back to you later
-Sponsored and accrued bipartisan support for legislation reforming ethics and health care laws in Illinois, 1996-97
-Initiated welfare reform and increased funding for childcare, 1998
-Led Illinois democrats in support of Republican governor Ryan's bill targeting predatory lending practices in order to stave off home foreclosures, 2001
-Served as chairman of the Illinois Senate Health and Human Services Committee, 2003
-Sponsored and led bipartisan passage of legislation to monitor racial profiling by requiring police to record the race of drivers they detained, and legislation making Illinois the first state to mandate videotaping of homicide interrogations, 2003 (this legislation was lauded by police officials state-wide)
That's just a summarized list of his actions as a state Senator. For a list of his sponsored legislative acts as a US Senator, you can read Wikipedia:

Then again, I'm sure you'll come up with some ex post facto qualifier that makes all of these accomplishments "not count". Discussing politics with some people is like playing freeze tag with 4th graders. Also, I'm not an "Obamanite". I voted for Ron Paul. I just love to watch people do mental gymnastics to justify their BS attacks on the President.
Obama's campaign staff was much larger than the entire city of Wasilla and also, Obama's campaign was arguably one of the most successful political campaigns in American history. Sarah Palin whisked into an Alaska power vacuum and then proceeded to quit the job. Where I come from, when you quit something that means you've failed at it.
This assertion could use some sort of evidence to back it up. Thanks!
