Thread: Who are you voting for! (Secret poll! No need to spill the beans!)

Now see you only asked who I was voting for. You never said what the vote was for. So naturally I voted Barr because I assumed it was a poll to decide who made the best soft drink in the world. I was wondering what soft drink Obama and McCain make. I mean I know McCain makes fries but what food product does Obama make?

No I voted Barr. Irn Bru is the best.

Just because Obama has a couple of ideas that could be considered leaning towards socialism doesn't make him a Joseph Stalin.

Both candiates would be considered right wing in europe. the only difference is that Obama would be considered a right leaning conservative, and McCain would be a right wing nationalist, with Palin being an extremist.

I appreciate your response, and yes, he is most certainly a Marxist and a socialist, and yes I am well versed in the studies of these philosophies. I don't know which system or gov't you "partially" live under but that is immaterial to the facts. His speeches, his very words are that of the Marxist and socialist propaganda, you only need to listen to his policies that he would put in place and his agenda. He is a dangerous man with dangerous alliances. I don't listen to the lamestream media, i do not wathc CNN ABC or CBS, or even FOX. I don't waste my time with them, my recourse is the Declaration of Independance and
and books and research, I am currently reading the Kommunist Manifesto. His ideas are not change but of the same despotic and irrational rule common in such leaders as Pol Pot, Mao, Lennin, Stalin. Yes i do know history, I actually read instead of nodding with the clowns in the media and pseudo intellectualists...

Thomas Sowell is one of my heros!

You guys really should get out more.

So does that mean you are voting for Obama or not?

Maybe if you gave us some examples of "his speeches, his very words," we could respond. I've heard the same speeches, read the same books and I reach the opposite conclusion.

I can sympathize with any lack of interest in or respect for he mainstream media. They're interested in the things that affect our lives for their entertainment value only. However, I've also read Jefferson and Marx. Neither mentions Obama, for starters. Then, you link to a widely-rejected pseudo-intellectual, Mr. Sowers. You should know that rejecting CBS News only to get your information exclusively from right-wing propaganda organs like Hoover, Heritage, or American Enterprise, is hardly the road to enlightenment.

Get us those Obama quotes and we'll run them around a bit.

Trascript of Sarah Palin's prank call from 'Nicolas Sarkozy' - Telegraph

HA HA HA HA HA HA!

This is the best.

Voting is a compromise; unless you're running for office you'll never have the opportunity to vote for somebody with the same ideas as you. You have to pick the closest thing. And you have to pick the closest thing with a chance.

Therefore, if I could, I would vote for John McCain, Sarah Palin, and the Republican Party. They're not perfect and sometimes they're not even conservative, but they're more perfect and more conservative than the other guys. And they have a chance, unlike the other other guys.

Neither one of them have yet suggested a return to public flogging and hanging... which makes them liberal pinko commie losers in some places
