I'm thinking we have some died in the wool Ds, and that might explain, in part, the Obama pimping.
Poster Comment: I'm a reformed R, who now is a electoral non-participant.

Roger that.
That updated zoot suit might make you a Pachuco, but not a ' NDP Lieberal Canuckistani PIMP.' ;-)
Most of that 2% haven't a clue as to what is really occurring. They are just stolid, materialistic, and afraid of losing their toy collection and the false respect that money brings. Only about the upper one tenth of 1 percent, or less, really have any clear idea of the game being played. If the Globalist/Bankster plans come to fruition most of that 2% will be "liquidated" as a threat to "their betters". Some might be allowed to live as overseers and such but the true elite want no threat, real or perceived, to their megalomaniacal intentions.

Has a nice ring to it.
mcCain's choice should be interesting. i'm still thinking that it could very well be lieberman. that could very well be the plan of the PTB.
For me it was about '86 with the Tax increases and roll back of the Reagan Tax cuts (as an aside I figured out about that time that Reagan was suffering from the onset of Alzheimer's - when Nancy had to prompt him as to what to say to reporters when disembarking Marine One) that inspired a boom in the economy. It was clear to me that the boom was upsetting the elites as a lot of people were making hay and rapidly amassing fortunes which made them players. Real Charities, not just the phony Red Cross, were getting massive infusions of Philanthropic cash - which gave the ability to counter eugenics kill-offs of "useless eaters". The Global elite, Rothschilds-Rockefuckers et. al., did not want anyone to rise to a position which could allow a well intended wealthy individual to begin opposing their plans - which have been in place since at least the early 1800's if not before. Agreed without reservation.

I'd be awfully concerned if he only had nice things to say about me.
Well many, if not most, Republicans have not had a problem with calling Democrats communists for many years ... it appears obvious to me that they aren't very close to calling Republicans the fascist plutocrats that they have morphed into.

I'd be awfully concerned if he only had nice things to say about me. That would be a definite cause for concern. ;-)

:) Werd. I know who I am. I'm muthafukkin' wud-id-IZ!
Amen. I'm ready to draw straws...we'd be lots better off.
I've been a registered Independent since 2002...MUD
you were just a little bit ahead of me.
Revelation 6:6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and [see] thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
Excellent. There's hope :)
No friggin' way BigJohn picks BigJoe...McCain will attempt to appease--and enthuse--the right wing of the GOP with his pick...MUD BTW...my preference would be Haley Barbour.
Senator John Warner forced me to leave the GOP, whatta skank!! Fortunately, he's retiring in 2009, but we might end up with another RAT Senator (Mark Warner)...MUD
I agree with both of your points. Many Ds are socialists, and many Rs are fascists. Those that are neither are uninformed clods, useless eaters if you will.
You support folks who support Big Guv'ment, imho...MUD
Forgot to ping you there, brother.
Those are some very insightful comments.

I support folks who are honest, reasonable and sensible. I don't support gangsters. Hey wait a minute... I am a gangster! Just kidding. But thanks for your 'humble' opinion anyway. ;)
I think the party will play a stronger role in that selection than is typical in most conventions. And, if they don't, or if a choice such as Sanford of S.C., or Crist of FL. is not made (someone outside the beltway) then they've completely lost their way. Rice would add nothing to the ticket, IMO, regardless of who gets the D presidential nomination. I remain convinced that an Obama-Webb ticket would be a huge winner.

Have you seen "American Gangster"? I saw it yesterday...great flick...MUD
Not yet. I'll keep an eye out for it.
Thank you. Oh, you weren't talking to me...nevermind.
It's not a short movie, but the investment in time is worth it. Denzel plays the role great...MUD
I agree with every word of your post. I wish I didn't agree with the last sentence but, alas, I do

Sprinkle in some Cap'n Qweeg, Dr. Death, and the Crypt Keeper too.
Here's my bitch. I think our foreign policy is many pay grades above the office of the presidency. One (s)elected man/woman isn't going to defund the MIC while it's in full earning potential. We're talking about trillions and trillions of dollars in profit and countless corporations and jobs depend on war as their Mother’s milk. That richest 2% of people and governments you speak of will *never* tolerate a penny less in profit, and this reality was the sole reason I never gave RP a snowball‘s chance in hell despite having all the issues “right“. OTOH, on the domestic front, the political left irks me b/c the social programs they love so much costs me money. I'm like a lot of other folks, I simply can't afford to give even more to a central government for redistribution. I also want the political left to get their laws off my guns. Obama is capable of further damage to my bottom line, and he’s despicable on the 2nd amendment. How a man who proposes that self defense in one’s home is illegal, can be accepted by so many, sucks. So, to sum up my political feeling, McCain is correct; we'll be in Iraq for the next 100 years. Neither Obama nor Clinton will have the power or authority to change that, should they be (s)elected. The points that matter to me most make Obama the worst choice between the three.
Yep...Barry's far too naive...seriously, what responsibility has the dude EVER had?!
And THAT is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help me gramma.
American Gangster - Trailer Now I remember this was reccommended to me before.
"My fear is that we will have four more years of Bush in the form of McCain. I will cast my vote wherever I think it will be most effective in stopping this." LOL...a dyed-in-the-wool RAT...surprise!! Surprise!! "Going by the record of the past 7.5 years, I would prefer to take a chance with either Democratic candidate than to continue on our present course - which is what McCain has promised us. Given what McCain has promised, voting for McCain ratifies the Bush policies and McCain would come to power with what he believes is a genuine mandate to continue them. All in all, a very dangerous situation." LOL...so, EMPOWER the RATS!! Bwahahahahahaha... "I also think the plutocratic 2% who control small town America know the jig is up. We're in for a crash. They'll be front page pictures of bread lines and of the helicopter on the roof of the Baghdad embassy soon. McCain is old and sick and he'll be gone soon, so he can absorb the blame and then die. Fox News and the rest of the goob foolers have already assured the people in Wichita and hick Pennsylvania that McCain isn't a real conservative and he isn't one of them, so the failure can be easily disowned when it comes. The veep choice is the interesting one - he's the one that will be chosen to protect he plutocracy." Tee hee hee...oh, you were serious? LOL...this place could get interesting...MUD
I'm a registered independant who has voted Libertarian since 1988. The last Republican I voted for was Reagan in 84. I've never voted for a Democrat.
One of my favorite movies “There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance - that principle is contempt prior to investigation” ~ Herbert Spencer
Idiotic wishful thinking of a Leftist RAT, imho...MUD
Nor have I...nor will I...MUD

The points that matter to me most make Obama the worst of choice between the three. very well said. that 2nd amendment position that obama holds is appalling, imo. i'm changing my mind about wanting him to have the op to fulfill his promises for change, on that one issue. no matter what, we cannot as a populace be disarmed. that is still the only thing that the tyrants fear.

I began to doubt the Republicans in 1989 when I was reading in the Wall Street Journal about things that George HW Bush was actually doing as president.
If we selected 1000 citizens at random and gave them jobs randomly as president, vice president, congressman, senator, cabinet member, etc. then we would do much much better than we are doing now with powerful monied interests dominating us.
