I was trying to say that as far as terrorist connections go, this is one incident that, to me, looks like one of those random relationships that come and go through life. The ACORN group is corrupt, no doubt, but they're not terrorists (in the modern sense of the word).

Sorry, but if you choose bad person after bad person to enter your life and then choose to leave them there then you are just asking for trouble. It doesn't mean that you yourself are a bad person, just pretty darn stupid for keeping them in your life.
Are you referring to the trifecta of Bill Ayers, Rev. Wright and ACORN? You're right, these are suspicious connections. Hell, maybe Obama is a bit naive about the people around him. He'd almost have to be if he's really as hopeful as he makes himself out to be. At least he seems whip smart on law and government.

I don't think he will because while he's leading in the polls the way he is, he has no need to resort to such volatile tactics.

I'm sorry. I sometimes get angry in debates. I can be really impatient sometimes, so I end up making a fool of myself. One thing McCain and I have in common lol Other than that, I just like a good argument, no matter what subject it is. It's a great opportunity to learn, and from arguing with you, I've learned a lot about this election.

And again, how can you be tough on terrorism and yet be friends with a terrorist.

Probably more bothersome to me is that you defending an unrepentant terrorist, but that is neither for this thread nor these forums probably. I just feels it reflects on you poorly. However you're not running for any office so I could care less
You're right, I'd like to know the truth of these connections to Ayers as well. I don't think we ever will, though, because there's too much bias on both sides to decide what really happened. And, looking at the evidence you gave, it looks like Ayers is an unrepentant terrorist. Oh well.

Blind faith in democratic leadership.
I don't know what I'm going to do this election. The democratic process seems pretty fucked at this point. It's hard to get over the emotions Obama's speeches stirred up in me, though...

I on the other hand have called McCain a bumbling fool on several occassions.

Contrary to what you may want to believe I am not really bias'd. My candidate didn't win the major Ticket. I'll be hoping he chooses to run in 2012.

I'll be looking forward to your next defense for Obama. They amuse me :hippy:
I'd defend McCain if I saw hot threads about controversies around him. I think he's safe for awhile, though.

And cool, life would be shit without a good laugh

By the way, look! I figured out the multi-quote! *gasp*
