OFFICIAL: 2008 ELECTION THREAD

You are BRILLIANT

“Senator Barack Obama’s presidential campaign is asking Missouri law enforcement to target anyone who lies or runs a misleading television ad during the presidential campaign.”

Lying in this manner IS slander in case you were never told.

it’s ok though, the world expects geniuses like you to vote for McCain :tup:

:picard:

Like how he constantly lies and says that he is not friends with a known terrorist, yet has written a review of one of his book, and launched the start of his political campaign from the mans house, and he lied about knowing his reverand was a racist.

:picard:

sigh… :picard:

Stop grasping at straws and blowing things out of proportion. Honestly do you think a person could make it this far and become president if he was a terrorist?

Do you think he would get the support he gets if he was friends with one?

Use your fucking mind. There is nothing there, he is not a terrorist or a racist or a communist or an elitist or a muslim.

Thats the different between the right and the left in this campaign. You guys attack his patriotism and his motives for America.

You don’t attack him on issues.

I have never heard the left attack McCain’s patriotism or motives.

I believe they both want whats best for the country.

The right believes Obama wants terrorist attacks, and communism.

Fuck that and get ready to lose your grip on the government come November.

bump bump bump. maverick is about to ride the failboat.

yawn
May I get the last 2 hours back please?

I’m glad I didn’t choose “my friends” as the drink word.

I chose “Lieberman.” :lol:

That debate sucked. They might as well have just waltzed for 2 hours. They were both dancing the whole time anyway.

There should be a new ticket…

Obama McCain 2008

:rolljerk:

We are in the most drastic times of several generations and these two jokers are arguing over the one section of a split hair.
“When I ass rape America it won’t be you I am ass raping it will be the other guy you don’t like.”
vs.
“I won’t ass rape America it will be an anal exploration with my expert penis because you need me.”

When I say, “we are screwed” I mean it.

Hopefully the next 4 years go quick, and in the mean time someone decent decides to give it a go.

Is Colin Powell still alive?

I hate to tell you but, no matter who gets elected these next four years are going to be looooong.
The damage is done.

Heh. I can’t argue with you there.

I wonder how Ron Paul’s campaign would have gone if this meltdown had happened last spring. I’m not sure that I agree with his policies, but he certainly has an infinitely greater understanding of economics than either Obama or McCain.

Obama and McCain understand plenty, so do their advisors, they just dont care.

wow jeg that was srsly so stupid

srsly.

you know what ELSE was stupid? that debate. fail v. both-parties - although watching angry-robot-mccain strut around was kinda funny after a few beers (yes, debate-the-drinking-game is fun)

I know everyone hates Fox News but I could find nothing on CNN (big surprise they haven’t covered this)

same here

they both stink on ice

McCain’s populist tone when it comes to housing must really be pissing off the base.

Obama handled health care superbly, his story about his mother was a great one to condemn insurance companies

McCain was a prick after the debate too

I think he’s starting to feel like this was HIS turn and Obama is taking it away from him

Debate cliffs:

obama: if we can take bin laden out, and pakistan won’t help, we should take him out anyway.

McCain: obama just announced that he’s going to send tanks into pakistan the day he takes office! he’s horribly naive and a traitor for giving away military movements! me, i would coddle any terrorist that can find a willing country to harbor them! bin laden will be perfectly safe in islamabad as long as i’m president! oh, and i have a secret plan for ending bin laden’s life.

obama: if you make less than $250,000 a year, you’ll get a tax cut.

McCain: obama’s got like six tax proposals, i can’t keep them straight. first it’s a cut from anyone under $250,000. then it’s a hike for anyone over $250,000. then it’s a cut for 95% of the people. then it’s a hike for 5% of the people. then it’s only the poor and the middle class who get the tax cut. then it’s only the rich who get a tax hike. see, he keeps changing his position, just like jell-o, and we all know how evil jell-o is. but i’ll make it simple for you. obama’s tax cut plan was copied word for word from herbert hoover’s tax hike plan! he’ll single-handedly cause a repeat of the great depression! obama will hike taxes on all employers, who will then fire YOU! tax increases only work when i propose them, as in my health care plan. taxing employers on their health care benefits will cause the economy to boom; taxing employers on their profits will cause another great depression.

brokaw: as moderator, i have to inform you that you that i am powerless to stop you from going over the time limits.

obama: we’re going to have to prioritize.

McCain: i’ll solve all our problems before naptime on inauguration day. one of us up here is really lazy. hint: that one.

obama: i’d like to address the social security problem in my first term.

McCain: solving social security is easy-peasy! i just takes some bipartisanship, and i’m the bipartisanest guy there is! nobody gets bipartisaner then me! i’m so bipartisan i actually SAW ronald reagan and tip o’neill talk to each other! it doesn’t get more bipartisan than that! and all that bipartisanality means that social security is solved if i’m president! because you don’t need an actual PLAN to solve problems, you just need an agreement between the two parties. the mere act of agreement actually makes the social security fund solvent through eternity!

obama: george bush shouldn’t have called on america to go shopping after 9/11.

McCain: america needs to sacrifice earmarks. i’m a reformer. my party hates me. the other party hates me, too. independents hate me. everybody hates me. you should like me because i am universally hated. i once killed a big boondoggle of an earmark for the sole purpose of replacing it with an even bigger earmark. now that’s reform. there’s a lot of waste in defense spending, so i’m going to freeze all spending except for defense. and senate perks, can’t freeze that. wait, if i’m president, i won’t get senate perks anymore. can i take that back?

brokaw: thank you, both. now kindly move so i can see my teleprompter and awkwardly avoid shaking hands. good night.
