Agree 100%. I cant even reply to some of these stupid statements that are made lately.

I dont even read most posts anymore lol, i got active for a while, then i figured i should have stuck by my sigi:rastasmoke: keep my mouth shut, just watch and enjoy the mudslingers and silently laugh a little inside me at the poor crowd who is being played by politics and the media!

Barack Obama Some of his rather corpulent supporters in the front rows of the audience certainly prove that point. :cool: Rating: 5

Seems to me that if Obama was to shit in the middle of the road many members would be stating on what great environmentally safe fertilizer he created.

I get that exact feeling everyday!:thumbsup:
Not that it would be a good fertilizer, but that many here would believe it was.

Speaking as a "liberal," and even more importantly, as an expert on compost and organic fertilizers, I have to point out that normal human "manure" can be an excellent fertilzer provided it is composted with plenty of carbon-rich bulking agent and at sufficiently high temperature. Maybe avoid using it on the carrots or other food crops.

However, politician poop is to be avoided no matter what party pooped it out....

Anyone who implies that Obama is calling Palin a pig is an idiot and can't understand the analagy. More scaremongering from the right wing, claims that he is sexist is absurd and a blatent lie, those are smear tactics. Mchypocrit said the same thing, he should be quiet. So because he's from hawaii and moved to chicago he can't say a phrase? I think freedom of speech guarentees him that right, the exact right Mccain has when he said it, if obama is sexist then so is Mccain, don't dish it out if you can't take it. This all stems from Palins stupid comparison when she panders to her hockey mom demographic, implying how strong they are by calling them pitbulls. Pitbulls don't cry like this. Obama is right this is the GOP talking about a non issue, taking him out of context for their own advantage, to gain votes and it's sickening. Enough is enough, they need to focus on the real issues, not this trivial bullshit about lipstick, it's absolutely farcical. They say obama is ready to smear, well so are you mccain, a lot worse and even more blatent.

Didn't know that Bill, Hillary and 30% of Clintons voters were "right wing". I'll bet that they all vote McCain but still.

Have a good one!:s4:

Wow this would be hilarious if it wasn't so desperate. Actually, it is hilarious...

Obama said:
"You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called change. It's still gonna stink."

Is Palin a Fish too? Which is it, Pig or Fish! lulz

Come on! This is so lame, these idiots should focus on talking to the public about policies and stop pissing in the wind.

You just might want to consider how it reflects on you, and whether anyone will take your arguments seriously or not. You have valid opinions, but when people see the name-calling, they just tune out everything.

Read my lipstick...Image is not why I post, and definatelly not why I follow the paths I take. Whether it's politics, or growing cannabis, or societies moral terpitude...I call 'em like I see them. If I'm the only one that feels this way...oh well. No skin off my teeth.

Being a Harvard and Columbia grad, the man is definatelly smart enough to know the associations he was hinting at with the lipstick crack. If you think he was too dense to realize that the association would be made...then he is a moron not worthy of the to for which he is applying for. Either way...he's a loser.

It was a another childish cheap-shot unworthy of our next president.

You can put a cross on a muslim...but he's still a muslim. (but of course I'm not talking about Osama Bin Barack)

You can also watch CNN or Fox and read news headlines on the internet, it doesn't make you patriotic or intelligent.

True...But at least those watching Fox news are armed with the facts. :jointsmile:

I've been watching the O'Reilly factor for the Obama interviews, and I have to say I have a lot more respect for him now than I did in the past. He's an opinionated bloviator for sure, but no more so than most of the people I hang out with here on this forum, maybe myself included. And he does seem to have a sense of fairness about some things that cuts through some of the crap.

Anyway, before the Obama segment #4 last night, he talked about this idiotic lipstick on a pig BS. He said he didn't think for a minute that Obama intentionally meant any kind of insult by the remark. He said he did not think that was Obama's style. And he said that Obama is smart enough to know that it obviously would have hurt him to make such a statement --- as it obviously has hurt him. So it was unintentional, but he should have known better than to even use the word lipstick. Then he said the media has picked this up and is blowing it out of proportion for their own purposes because they love controversy. He agreed with Obama that this kind of thing is "catnip for the media." In the end he said that if the McCain campaign continued to push this thing for much longer, it was going to have blowback and hurt them, because people see through this kind of BS pretty quickly and they get sick of it fast. Once they get sick of the cynicism, they blame the people pushing it along.

I watched the whole 24-hour news media run around in circles all freakin' day long yesterday chasing this non-issue, and it was freakin' Bill O'Reilly who had the most intelligent thing to say on it all day. What kind of alternative universe have I stepped into? There must be a rip in the space-time fabric.

Honestly... I'm not sure if people have noticed but I've been commenting less and less in the politics forum. This is the reason why, people aren't discussing politics anymore and are just falling prey to media drama made to boost ratings.

Focus on the issues? I hate it equally as much as when people try to pin Obama down on trivial matters also.

So I've been holding back more so than usual and anticipate by the time it comes for the actual election I probably won't be participating at all. This election like all others before it is finally starting to enter the mud slinging phase.

Everyone sit back and watch the children play. :hippy:

I hear ya I come in hear to get a laugh we all know who we are voting for. All I know is who ever is the president me and my wife already started making our plans for the future. Its just funny to come in here and read all this I cant get enough.:rasta::rastasmoke:imp:
