Obama's abandonment by his mother

jonbig04 · Oct 25, 2008

Not really. Some arguments are like that for sure, but I doubt in THIS campaign you want to start comparing arguments to arguments. Mccains entire campaign is built on trying to convince that "Obama is a bad/terrorist/scary/ person" and "Im not bush".

Bump.

All you clowns read this again and again until your eyes bleed.

Did you "bump" a post that was just two posts higher than yours.
There was this episode of South Park where a situation was so funny , Eric Cartman couldn't laugh anymore.
I can't laugh. This is too funny

Quote from Mercor:

Any questions asked about Obama, the response is always to compare it to another situation then to argue if the comparison is correct.

Obamas drug use will automatically bring up Cindy McCain
Obamas experience automatically brings palin is stupid.
Obamas plumber comment automatically Joe gets slammed
and so on..

The mother issue is about the effect of abandonment as a child from 2 years old . Much different then what McCain experienced as a grown man in his 30's.

Both campaigns have gone the, who can bring up the most frivolous issues route. Keeps the opposition off message. Politics as usual! It's a race to the bottom, and once again we'll choose the lesser of two evils, which is completely subjective.

You are right. But I'm sorry if you dont think the mccain campaign has brought up far more frivolous issues and made them more central to their campaign than Obama has...I just dont know what to tell you.

Really, I was referring to the people here. lol
Any comment negative toward Obama, automatically the response is crude, vulgar or something nasty about Palin, McCain or Republicans.
Never is it a direct response to the subject posted.

I guess it depends on how one defines frivolous. Wardrobe and makeup budgets are frivolous as hell. Pointing out that Palins lack of foreign policy experience isn't. Calling Obama an abandoned child is frivolous. Questions about his relationships with Ayers and the like isn't.

Obama never commented on Palin's wardrobe, the press did.
McCain couldn't stop yapping about "lipstick on a pig"

Questions weren't frivolous until they were answered and the issue was found to be moot. Saying he "pals" around with terrorists, dispatching robocalls that say the same thing etc is frivolous. Mccain campaign's issues are far more irrelevant, frivolous, misleading, and just plan dirtier than Obama's. Thats not an argument FOR obama or even who you should vote for, but I hope we can all agree that the desperation of mccain's campaign is obvious by the smear tactics.

Don't get me started on the press. Those worthless cocksukers are the root cause of all this shit. I guess having to fill the airwaves 24/7 has a price...meaningful truth.
