Heh, well I would say that the Republican scandals have been considerably more numerous. That doesn't excuse the Democratic scandals, either, but both sides should be arguing the issues rather than pointing out individuals worthy of scorn and attributing their ethical malaise to the whole of either side. If you go by proportion of scandal and criminal behavior, it would likely show the Republicans to be the most ethically bankrupt. So? I really don't think it is that important.
Also, Chappaquiddick, seriously? I mean, yeah, he should have been in jail, but that was 40 years ago. Stretching, are we?
I was expecting a "The Night the Lights went out in Georgia" youtube parody.

There's a final problem with portraying Kennedy as the ideological kin of Reagan and Bush on tax policy. Kennedy, it turns out, initially wanted to use government spending, not tax cuts, as the means to put dollars in people's hands. But that idea ran aground in 1962 because conservatives in Congress opposed it, while the president's aides feared that the bond market might respond to additional spending with higher rates that could offset their gains. Still, even as Kennedy accepted tax reduction as the first step along the route to growth, he never gave up his spending idea. "First, we'll have your tax cut," he told Heller; "then we'll have my expenditures program."
Like scripture, it seems, John F. Kennedy can be quoted for many purposes.

If you don't understand the appeal Obama has to America......you're probably white and you're probably from the South.
if you don't understand how fucking idiotic that statement was, then you're probably retarded...Quote:

First, race is important. Pretending like our history doesn't exist -- pretending like racism still doesn't exist -- is just silly. If race and gender and religion weren't of any bearing in America, then we wouldn't have a string of white, Christian men as the only leaders of our country since it's conception. Obama's victory is many things (some of them may prove to be bad) but the fact that America has shed its "original sin" of slavery enough to elect a man of color as our CIC is a big deal. If you don't see that and can't celebrate it even a little then you're either a racist or you're a product of our current atmosphere where race has no bearing. The previous would be unfortunate, while the latter is a good thing.Quote:

That said, I'm sure there are lots of reasons to be against Obama that aren't about race. However, if you have the deep-seeded hatred toward him that many on this board seem to express then the statement "you're probably white and probably from the south" doesn't seem like that much of a stretch to me.
DarrinS waved goodbye to America eight days after he voted for Obama. What a patriot.
DarrinS = Angeluv?
A bit melodramatic no?Quote:

so you dishonestly (surprise!) blame Obama and the Dems for the disasters they inherited from dubya, esp when Rush and Repugs want the country to fail so assholes like you and Repugs can blame it all on Obama in 2012.
You're just a douche. Why not try something different and go outside today?Quote:
