    It doesn't matter, he's the next darling. I haven't seen anyone get such a cake walk in the media for a long time. I'm keeping a list of "puff" pieces on this guy, on my forum.

    btw, his votes are to the left of Ted Kennedy.

    I saw this debate on Hardball. It was funny to me, several agreed that he couldn't win the election as a former cocaine user, that this was the issue that would kill his chances. Christ, the past 14 years we've had former drug users as the President, and the past 6 has been a former cocaine user.

    He's a Democrat, of course he has a left wing agenda. The Republican nominee will have a right wing agenda. That's how politics works, yo.

    We actually agree mate, you are completely correct.

    I still believe that Hillary will put her name in too and get the call though and the Illuminati will push her through to be the next President. Reading about the Presidential connections over the years it makes sense, can't see McCain doing much and as for Rudy Giuliani??? :confused:

    Obama seems a really nice person but he is way too black for his own good LOL.

    Isn't being a cocaine user or former cocaine user one of the prerequisites for being a President of the USA? :D

    I'm thinking that may be a myth (atleast now-a-days), but I've yet to hear the confirmations.

    That's socialist health care for you.


    AFAIK it is. My dad business partner came to the US specifically to have his teeth done, even after moving back to the UK some time ago.

    Your smily face's are supposed to have green teeth...lol. Yep, we have fat people here. I'd like to point out things about that, but I'm sure some people wouldn't like that.

    I just took an X-ray recently on my lungs (to check for cancers), although I'm far from overweight. I'm actually the exact BMI level they want me at. And my teeth are perfect...how about you, chief?

    My wife found a truly interesting read that discusses the fact that Osama Bin Bama is a Muslim by birth. His dad was after all Muslim. The article talkis about him being a potential target for death due to the fact that he claims to be Christian, which are we good Muslims know is a no no. The penalty for a Muslim that converts away from Islam is DEATH!

    Nice read...

    Jeremy, it isn't the biggest issue, but I am curious and I'd like to ask - why do you insist on calling this Senator by a name not his? I have never understood this. He is an American, after all, like you or me. Casting personal aspersions on him over his family name - it doesn't aid your argument at all, does it?

    If anything, that he chooses to live his life as an individual - embracing what both his father and his mother gave him - should be something to celebrate. While I think he is just a media phenomenon, wholly unready for higher office, I do think he is worthy of simple civility.

    It's no skin off my teeth. Guess it just seems silly, to me, unless there is something I'm not seeing in his background, etc., that would lead you to equate him with Bin Ladn.

    Since you asked, here you go.

    I really thought you would have figured this one out by now.
