He has given them training courses in get-out-the-vote methods, each of which involved approximately two hours of work and for which he was not paid. He knows some of their leaders from his days in community work in Chicago. That's pretty normal.

    Don't buy into this All-ACORN-All-the-Time coverage that Fox and the Neo-Con attack organs are trying to put over on you. It's a political witch hunt. They're accusing ACORN of voter registration fraud -- not voter fraud, mind you, but voter registration fraud. There's a huge difference. They hired some people to register voters, who forged some forms to get more money. ACORN tagged the fraudulent forms, but they had to turn them in, by law. There is, by the way, solid evidence that fraudulent registrations are virtually never used for casting fraudulent votes.

    This is all part of McCain's Weapons of Mass Distraction strategy for his campaign. He can't run on the issues, so he gives us his daily dose of media sewage to distract our attention from the fact that he doesn't have a clue.

    McCain said it himself the other day: Obama is a decent man. You may disagree with him, which I can respect, but don't buy this other crap. There's nothing to it.

    I don't want to hijack this thread so maybe you guys should just stick with the Palin bashing.

    Edit: I also agree almost 100% with joke1176

    Shavers,

    I believe there is only one choice for this year's election. We need a president who is not afraid of nothing and does not take gruff off of no one. Actually, the only thing he's afraid of is banks, and well, in today's economy that might just be the right thing to do.

    I'm making the right choice this November, I'm voting for Andrew Jackson.

    OK, OK... how many of your so called candidates actually invented something (lightning rod, bifocals etc) AND was an abolitionist AND a card carrying member of the Hellfire club? HUH?

    I rest my case.


    Also, to stay on topic here: Palin is a scary fundamentalist nutjob ("Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.). It looks like McCain is going to get STOMPED this season, so no worries about her...yet. They say she is seriously angling for next election season.
    There are a growing number of instances when she is openly dissenting with McCain on strategy and policy issues, and she is getting more strident as McCains chances dwindle. This is a bad bad thing.

    We have been collecting state quarters. I just got the Alaska quarter and am happy to report that Sarah Palin's picture is NOT on it.

    There is a picture of a grizzly bear eating a salmon and I think I can see Russia in the background.

    I find it impossible to believe that anyone really intends to cast a vote for a ticket that includes this woman:
    YouTube - Sarah Mania! Sarah Palin's Greatest Hits


    I can't believe that anyone voted for G.W.Bush either. I am frequently disappointed in the actions of human beings. I put voting for Sarah Palin on the same list as staring at the sun, eating broken glass or insulting a waitress before you get your food.

    Please people, don't do it. The result will not be very good.
