I just got back from 600 N. Ridge. It took 5 minutes in/out to cast my votes. I feel for them folks that have to wait several hours. Kinda brings back memories of meat lines in some commie countries prior to Berlin Wall going down.

Dave K,
Your invective and its content, together with your childish lists show you for what you are. I have worked in financial risk for decades and do not need you to indicate some selective sources. As for me being an "ignorant socialist antiAmerican" I have letters of thanks and appreciation from several US State governers who kindly also invited me to their homes and official residences. I actually am closer to Republican than Democrat, but belong to that part of the republican outlook that despises you and your type, along with the religious fundamentalists of all sorts.

To show you how wrong you are, just take one small quote from one of your own sources - "Fed policy......... is the cause of the boom-and-bust cycle that has caused the housing bubble and its bursting. Not "market failure" but Fed policy."

Can you tell me who has been in power for the last 8 years? Can you tell me what the US deficit has grown to in that same period? Are you really trying to convince me that blame can be dumped on Clinton and Carter for what has been happening during the last 8 years? What was the fool in No. 1100 doing for the eight years of his watch? May I suggest that he was - at best - asleep at the helm. It is one thing to get dragged into a war, but to start not one, but two of them is inexcusable. Particularly when there is no exit strategy.

Obama will get in, the world will continue to turn, people will continue to own, buy and sell guns, and hopefully the US, a once great and respected country, will get the government it deserves and redeem its former position. But I'm not even sure of that.

Hey DaveK. Bite me. Thanks.

Kerryman,

Must agree it is hard to answer. In any case that someone didn't try to solve a problem does not shift the origin of it.

Some more about the "needed change" you advocate:

"In Rules for Radicals Alinsky writes, "There's another reason for working inside the system. Dostoevsky said that taking a new step is what people fear most. Any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future. This acceptance is the reformation essential to any revolution."

This is where Senator Barack Obama's campaign about "Change" comes from. He is not talking about positive change but rather the change outlined by his mentor Saul Alinsky. Revolutionary change. Socialist change."

This from: Saul Alinsky - yet another Obama mentor from his Marxist past

I cannot agree with you that an Obama government is the one the US deserves.
And I am sure it would not be the one to redeem its former position.
On the other hand I suppose by now that alea jacta est.

P.S.: Did you get a chance to read the articles mentioned in my previous post? jc

Aren't people entitled to vote for the team which best represents their personal interests? My vote was cast after careful examination of ALL issues important to numero UNO, myself and my family. I never voted (vote) along: party lines, race, ethnic origin, gender,...... only issues. Your list containing certain member of this board is foolish.

Why is the list foolish? I thought we all bear the responsiblility for our actions?


Sorry, my mistake. That was before.

Even commies value opinions ( the RIGHT ones of course)

This is the type of response I'd expect from a left wing liberal who is finally showing his true colors. When confronted with facts,avoid admitting the truth,evade answering directly, misrepresent the truth,lie about the truth then when all else fails insult the person with the facts.

Take the insult for waht it's worth Dave.

The turning point for me, as regards my view of private ownership of firearms, came during my tour of Vietnam in 1965 and 1966. I saw firsthand the unarmed,except for edged farming tools,peasants trying to survive the predations of their own government during the day and the VC at night. they were powerless against both and paid the price,both with their lives and their property as both sides stole what they wanted without any compensation,except promises of security, given.
I remember we used to say that they should just arm the peasants and let them decide their own fate. I'm sure that an armed peasant village would have given pause to both bands of predators that ravaged the countryside.I believe,at the very least,it would have given them a fighting chance where there was none.
You can talk about artillery,tanks and air warfare all you want but when preserving the infrastructure and civilian populace is part of the plan, it is the rifle that is the weapon that decides the outcome.

Were you the class priss, Jimmy?

Thanks Jaycee,
I had a very quick look at the first link, saw what it was and didn’t bother as it is expectedly partisan, underscoring, for example, supposed links with Ayres and Khalidi: I’ll look at the other tonight when I’ve more time.

I am not going to take sides on the lies told by either side – thankfully none are as bad as those under Rove – but the first one of this campaign I remember is the McCain black children story that broke here seemingly “years” ago.

Take the much-vaunted Ayres crapola continuously posted here. The McCain camp states that Obama "lied" about his association with Bill Ayers. McCain says the two are "friends" who have "worked together for years." Palin has said repeatedly on the hustings that Ayers and Obama "pal around" together. All of this is untrue.
The evidence indicates that Obama has told the truth, that the two know each other but are not close. They met in 1995, when Obama was asked to head the board of a school reform group that Ayers had helped start. Its board included a number of well-regarded Chicago establishment types, including senior Republicans. Ayers is a professor of education and was named a Chicago Citizen of the Year in 1997 for his work on school reform. Obama never excuse Ayers' actions, calling his Weatherman activity "despicable." Incidentally, Obama was EIGHT when the Weatherman crowd were around, so it is farfetched to link him to that. Unless, of course, the intended audience consists of rabid uneducated rednecks that need further swaying.

Here in Ireland I have sat down with people who once were described as terrorists and who now are regarded as respectable politicians – does that make me a terrorist or a supporter of terrorism?
