I'd really like to know whether McCain got tipped off on the questions he'd be asked at the Saddleback forum.

oh well.

I think its pretty obvious he was, since he was answering them before they were asked

How about a McCain-Liebermann ticket? It'd be like the anti-young person presidency.

It seems like Obama might decide his VP today?

Apparently Chet Edwards has emerged as a contender.

China is notorious for censorship and banning things people want. Obama wants us to be more like them

The Nazis came from Germany and Obama wants us to be closer with Germany.

I was just explaining the connection.

The point I wanted to get across was: He just said we need to be more like fricken China.

That was ages ago, there's no connection.

China on the other hand is censoring the shit out of everything right now and is ruled by the communist party.

Not that any of that stuff is relevant seeing as all he's saying is that America should spend more money on infrastructure.

You shouldn't be so rediculously close minded Shmay, you're acting as if everything China does is pure evil, lol. Really childish point of view.

That's my point. There's no connection on either front. Condemning socialist ideas is silly, because our government is already infused with tons of them as are most western European countries. FDR was probably the biggest socialist this country has ever had in power, and he's pretty well regarded.

Simply because FDR is well regarded and western Countries have socialist policies doesn't mean "condemning socialist ideas are silly."

Frits, I'm not saying that at all. It's just not a place we should emulate.

Ok, well he's well regarded for those policies and the socialist/capitalist hybrids in Northern Europe continually outrank us in human development reports.

Well then we should find out which is producing that -- capitalism or socialism.

Which countries are you referring to? I'm not trying to be a dick. I'm just not up on Europe.

Wtf? Is Obama seriously actually behind now?



And how the fuck is the economy a major issue? It doesn't matter who the President is--outside of times like the great depression he can't do jack shit to influence the economy. If McCain gets elected but democrats maintain a majority in Congress... well he won't be passing all his retarded tax cuts then.

It was just a cute way to introduce the video, and again, I was just explaining the connection there.

Nobody's disturbed that he's advocating being more like China?
